Are you torn between buying the 2020 Santa Fe or the 2020 Palisade? The Santa Fe is a five-passenger SUV that has been proving its capabilities for almost two decades. On the other hand, the Palisade is an eight-passenger SUV that is a new addition to the Hyundai line. The Palisade is placed over the Santa Fe in the line, and this is only the beginning of their many exciting differences.
The Santa Fe is offered in five trims, and two powertrains are available across the trim line. The base powertrain is a 2.0-liter design connected to an eight-speed SHIFTRONIC transmission. This engine produces 185 horsepower. The top powertrain is a 2.0-liter turbo variant that will impress you with 235 horsepower. Front-wheel drive is standard, and you can upgrade to an all-wheel-drive drivetrain. The Palisade, on the other hand, is offered with one powertrain across its three trim levels. It receives 291 horsepower from a 3.8-liter, V6 gas engine. The Palisade has the same drivetrain and transmission, as you will find in the Santa Fe.
These two SUVs have a comparable grille on the front end and smooth flow across the sides. The Santa Fe has angled LED headlights placed over large fog lamps. The rear lights protrude modestly, and they combine with a dual exhaust system to add sportiness to the back of the Santa Fe. The Palisade, on the other hand, has towering LED headlights and rear lights. The haunches at the front and rear have a beefy definition, and a body-colored element separates the side windows between the second and third rows. You can appreciate powered and heated side mirrors, a hands-free liftgate, remote entry, a power liftgate, and other equipment across both models.
The most noticeable differences inside these SUVs are the size of the cabins and the third row of seats in the Palisade. They carry many similarities across their list of available and included features, but the Palisade brings a few more advanced features on a trim-by-trim level. Equipment that you can appreciate in both models could consist of a push-button starter, hands-free Bluetooth tech, a surround-view monitor, a panic alarm, leather material, a heads-up display, a sunroof, a wireless device charging station, smart device apps, an Infinity premium sound system and numerous other items.
