What’s New for the 2027 Palisade Hybrid

The Palisade was fully redesigned for 2026, when the hybrid powertrain joined the lineup for the first time. The 2027 model carries that design forward with two notable updates.

New Calligraphy Black Ink Trim

Hyundai added the Calligraphy Black Ink as the new range-topping trim. It is offered only with the hybrid powertrain. It builds on the Calligraphy with gloss-black 21-inch alloy wheels, black badging and exterior detailing, and black interior accents. It arrived at dealers in July 2026.

Better All-Wheel-Drive Efficiency

All-wheel-drive Palisade Hybrid models now earn an EPA-estimated 30 combined MPG, up from an EPA-estimated 29 combined MPG for 2026.
