The 2023 Hyundai Palisade will hit Australian shores in August, bringing with it the same upgrades that adorned the facelifted model sold in overseas markets. Hyundai Australia will offer the 2023 Palisade in two trim levels. Sitting at the base of the range is the Elite, priced from AU$ 65,900 (US$ 46,059) with the available 3.8-liter GDi petrol V6 and AU$69,900 (US$ 48,854) with the 2.2-liter CRDi turbo-diesel four-cylinder. Both engines are coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Accompanying the Elite in the range is the Palisade Highlander, starting at AU$ 75,900 (US$ 53,048) for the petrol V6 and AU$ 79,900 (US$ 55,844) for the diesel four-cylinder.
