The Hyundai Palisade is a flagship three-row family SUV that brings premium interior quality and genuine eight-seat comfort to a price point well below European luxury rivals. In Saudi Arabia, the 2026 range starts from SAR 171,281 for the 2.5 T-GDI GL FWD (Base).
The KSA lineup is powered by a turbocharged 2.5L engine producing 277, paired with an Automatic gearbox. The entry 2.5 T-GDI GL FWD (Base) offers front-wheel drive and a solid suite of safety and connectivity features as a foundation. The top-spec 2.5 T-GDI Calligraphy AWD (Top) adds all-wheel drive, quilted Nappa leather seating, a panoramic sunroof, a heads-up display, and a premium audio system — buyers step up for the AWD capability and the significantly richer cabin experience. With seating for 8, both trims cover large family needs with ease.
Pros: the Palisade's second-row captain's chairs with reclining and sliding function set a comfort standard few rivals at this price match in Saudi Arabia. The 2.5 T-GDI Calligraphy AWD (Top)'s interior genuinely challenges premium European SUVs costing far more. Cons: fuel consumption on the turbocharged petrol is on the higher side for this engine size — fuel-conscious buyers should factor running costs into the total ownership calculation. The conservative exterior design does not communicate the quality of what's inside as clearly as some rivals.
No formal residual value data is currently available for the Palisade in the KSA market. However, used 2023 examples are currently listed from SAR 125,000 on CarSwitch — around 27% below the equivalent new entry price — indicating reasonable but not exceptional depreciation for a family SUV of this size. Used 2022 examples list from SAR 81,500, offering strong value for buyers prioritising budget over the latest model year.
Buyers also consider the Kia Sorento, Toyota Highlander and Nissan Murano — the closest rivals in this segment and price bracket.
