Hyundai has made a fundamental shift toward modern styling and innovation. This fact is very evident when you take the interior of the 2022 Hyundai Elantra into consideration. The Elantra’s modern interior styling and intelligent innovations stand out from the competition and provide you with bold style choices and unsurpassed available interior features you are sure to love. So let’s explore what makes the 2022 Hyundai Elantra’s interior an automotive engineering masterpiece.

Interior Styling

The interior of the 2022 Hyundai Elantra has been transformed to provide you with bold, modern styling that will capture the eye. Its cockpit-style driver’s seat and cabin give you a unique feel usually only available in high-end sports cars. This cockpit design puts all of the Hyundai Elantra’s features within reach for the driver to have easy access anytime. Elegant colors, rich and lustrous leather, and soft-touch materials surround you in comfort and style that is sure to impress.

Modern lines, integrated digital screens, and an overall simplistic design give the Elantra a unique feel that will stimulate your senses. The Elantra also offers drive-mode-based ambient lighting. This subtle light strip is integrated into the Elantra’s full-width horizontal piece framing the air vents on the dashboard.

Aside from the Normal mode, the light strip changes color depending on which drive mode is selected. When in Smart mode, the light is blue, when in Eco mode, the light is green, and when in sport mode, the light is red. This light strip is customizable as well and can be set to whatever color that tickles the driver’s fancy.

Another feature to consider is the retention of a t-handle gear selector. Many automotive manufacturers are incorporating gear selector dials or push buttons. The T-handle gear selector in the Elantra provides a satisfying tactile gear selecting experience that has been lost in many vehicles.

Available Interior Tech

Not only does the 2022 Elantra have a modern interior appearance, but it also offers an array of modern interior technologies. As a result, there’s no shortage of available tech features you can take advantage of in the Elantra. Here are a few of the 2022 Elantra’s available tech features:

Cooled Wireless Charging

This feature allows you to charge smartphones that are Qi-enabled. This form of charging can generate excessive heat, and Hyundai has devised a way to counteract this heat with a ventilated charging pad. This feature aims to keep device temperatures closer to the ambient temperature as a means of protecting the performance and longevity of your smart devices. Wireless charging eliminates the need of using a charging cord, making it more convenient when your smartphone needs to charge. 

Multi-Screen Dash

The 2022 Elantra’s available dual 10.25-inch screens are seamlessly integrated into the dash and produce the appearance of one continuous piece of glass. This innovative approach is something that is embraced in many higher-end luxury automotive manufacturers. In addition, these screens work independently, with one functioning as a driver’s information center and the other as the touch screen infotainment center.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

Having wireless smartphone integration is a significant convenience now available in the 2022 Elantra. These features allow you to connect your Apple or Android device directly to the Elantra’s infotainment system and give you access to all of your phone’s functions, including maps, music, and more.

HD Radio

This feature gives you access to hundreds of high-definition radio stations for free. HD Radio offers crystal clear sound and more local stations by broadcasting a digital signal over traditional radio frequencies.

SiriusXM

With SiriusXM, you will have access to all of the best satellite radio stations. These no-commercial stations are dedicated to providing consumers with the best in audio entertainment.

Bose Premium Audio System with Eight Speakers

Bose is the pinnacle of audio and provides the best possible listening experience available. The Bose system in the 2022 Elantra offers balanced audio with rich bass, punchy mids, and clear highs.

Dual Fully Automatic Temperature Control

With this feature, you can let the climate control system do all the work by keeping you and your passengers comfortable as the interior. This feature automatically adjusts to maintain your desired comfort settings.

Tilt-and-Telescopic Steering Wheel

Everyone’s body type is different, and this feature works in tandem with the adjustable driver’s seat to ensure that you find the most comfortable driving position possible. The tilt feature allows you to adjust the angle of the steering wheel, while the telescopic feature allows you to keep the steering wheel farther away or closer to your position.

Power Windows with Driver’s Auto-Down and One-Touch Auto-Up

Power windows are more common in modern vehicles such as the 2022 Elantra, but the Elantra takes it a few steps farther. The driver’s auto-down feature rolls the driver’s window down with just one touch, and in direct contrast, the driver’s one-touch auto-up feature rolls the window up with just one touch.

Steering-Wheel-Mounted Controls

For a more ergonomic experience, you will find that the 2022 Elantra has audio, Bluetooth, and cruise controls mounted directly on the steering wheel. Having these controls mounted to the steering wheel gives the driver unobstructed access to these functions, decreasing distractions while driving.

These and many more features such as Bluelink Connected Care and Remote Package, navigation, and proximity key entry with push-button start are available for you to enjoy in the 2022 Hyundai Elantra.

It’s a closely guarded secret. Here’s what we do know.

Are you wondering what’s new in the all-new 2022 Hyundai Palisade? Here you’ll find all the answers to frequently asked questions about this luxury car. Plus, something new and exciting is happening in Washington, DC, especially if you live in or near Woodbridge, Virginia. 

What’s New With The 2022 Palisade?

Hyundai hasn’t announced when the redesigned Palisade will debut, but rumor has it that it’s pegged for sometime in 2022. Here’s what we do know:

• The Palisades’ impressive safety features will become standard across all trim variants in 2022.
• Hyundai may redesign the front to match the other models it offers.
• The dark brown quilted Napa leather option is being discontinued for the 2022 Limited and Calligraphy trims.
• The SE variant will enter the new model year with blind-spot monitoring as a standard feature. 
• Hands-free tailgate opening will be standard in the Limited and Calligraphy trims. This comes with quick open, auto open, and adjustable height settings.

The above features are in addition to best-in-class feature upgrades included when the Palisade was introduced as an all-new model in 2020. In 2021, the Palisade received an all-new Calligraphy trim. Along with that, more optional packages were introduced.

How Many Variants Of The Palisade Are There?

Four. Hyundai refers to their Palisade variants as trims. The four available trims are SE, SEL, Limited, and Calligraphy. Most of the Palisades’ features come as standard across all variants, especially where safety is concerned. 

Does The Palisade Have A Sunroof?

The SEL trim comes with a conventional sunroof as standard, while the top-of-range Limited and Calligraphy trims come with a dual-panel sunroof as a standard feature. 

Is the Palisade Selling Well?

Hyundai is one of the best-selling car brands in the United States, with the Palisade ranked No. 1 in midsize SUVs by the US News & World Report. The Palisade became Hyundai’s fourth best-selling model in August 2021, with year-to-date sales amounting to over 56,700 units.

In fact, the auto manufacturer has a hard time keeping up with consumer demand—orders for the Palisade range between 8,000 to 9,000 units per month. However, the production plant in Ulsan, South Korea, exports 6,000 to 7,000 units per month, resulting in a shortfall of around 2,000 units.

How Popular Are Hyundai Cars in the US?

According to GoodCarBadCar.net’s new vehicle sales report, Hyundai-branded vehicles attained 4.93% of the US car market in 2021.  When Hyundai-branded cars were introduced to North American buyers in 1986 with the launch of the Excel model, it became an instant success with 168,882 vehicles sold in its first year. By 2016, the brand sold 768,057 new cars, a record year for Hyundai.

The secret to the car brand’s success lies in the many features included as standard across the model range. Features that are usually only found on high-end luxury SUVs, but at a more affordable price point.

How Much Does A New Palisade Cost?

Hyundai’s recommended retail selling prices for a new Palisade 2021 model start with the SE trim at $33,150 and the SEL trim at $35,500. 

The SE comes standard with Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)?, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto with wireless connectivity,? and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped), among other features.

With the SEL trim, you get all of the SE’s features plus a power tilt-and-slide sunroof?, eight-way power driver seat?, and proximity key with push-button start.

A moderate jump to $45,390 gives you the Limited trim with dual sunroof?, 12.3-inch fully digital gauge cluster,? and surround-view monitor (SVM). Add $1,300 to that, and you get all the bells and whistles, including a perforated leather-wrapped steering wheel?, 20-inch alloy wheels?, premium front, and rear fascias, and ?quilted leather interior door panels.

Of course, as with competitor SUVs, there are optional upgrade packages available. These include the Convenience and Premium packages, a Trailering Package, and an HTRAC all-wheel-drive option.

How Many Passengers Can The Palisade Take?

The SE comes standard with eight-passenger seating with a second-row bench seat. The SEL variant comes with seven-passenger seating, with the second-row bench seat available as an eight-seater option. The standard for the luxury Limited and Calligraphy trims is seven-passenger seating with second-row captain’s chairs? with armrests.

Is The Palisade A Good Tow Vehicle?

When towing a brake-enabled mobile home or fully laden trailer, the Palisade can haul 5,000 pounds. This is made possible by the SUV’s six-cylinder 3.8-liter engine delivering 291 horsepower at 6,000 RPM and 262 pound-feet of torque at 5,200 RPM.

For towing, horsepower is a function of torque and engine speed (RPM) and indicates how much sustained work the car can do. Generally, bigger-displacement engines develop more torque, but smaller engines can spin faster, which increases horsepower output.

In essence, an engine with a mid-range torque peaking between 2,000 and 5,000 RPM will have good passing acceleration. Conversely, a lot of low-end torque is needed for towing proficiency. 

Of course, the transmission plays a big part, seeing as this is where the power and torque combination is applied to pull heavy loads. Since the Palisade is automatic, the eight-speed SHIFTRONIC gearbox selects the best combination for fuel economy and power, so all you have to do is drive the car. 

The Big Reveal

As mentioned at the start of this article, there is something new happening in Washington, DC. Here’s the big reveal.

Koons Hyundai – a new dealership in Woodbridge, Virginia, wants to buy your car. They are offering their trade-marked True Cash Offer deal to all new or pre-owned Palisade buyers. Enter the VIN online to see your car’s value in real-time. Then pop in for a quick inspection to confirm your car’s final value. And when that’s done, get your check on the spot. Or, better yet, trade in your old car and get up to an additional $500.

Plus, every 2022 Palisade gets Hyundai Complimentary Maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles (whichever comes first).?

Ready to make this holiday season extra special? Woodbridge and the surrounding areas make it easy. From craft shows and ice skating to drive-thru light displays and horseback riding, you’re sure to find plenty of fun ways to celebrate the holidays this year. 

Nights of Lights on the Fairgrounds

If you want to experience an enchanting evening the kids will love, make the short drive to Manassas for Nights of Lights on the Fairgrounds. Held annually at the Prince William County Fairground, Nights of Lights features a drive-thru light display filled with thousands of twinkling lights synced to popular holiday tunes. There’s also a Christmas village as well as several carnival rides to enjoy. At the Christmas village, you can purchase hot chocolate, complete a craft, or simply take some time to enjoy the holiday decor. When you’re done there, head over to the carnival rides and take a spin on the carousel or Ferris wheel. 

Gates open at 6 p.m. and close at 10 p.m., seven nights a week from now through January 9. A ticket for the drive-thru light show is $25 for a single vehicle, while Christmas Village and carnival ride tickets are available for an additional fee. Purchase tickets online or at the gate.   

Meadowlark’s Winter Walk of Lights

If you prefer to stroll through a light display rather than drive, visit the Winter Walk of Lights at the Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna. Every year, close to 80,000 people enjoy the holiday lights, which include several illuminated displays and a multitude of lighted trees. The walk is self-guided on a one-way, asphalt trail, and you’re welcome to move at your own pace. After you’ve completed the trail, warm up at the snack shop with a cup of hot chocolate or coffee. 

The Walk of Lights is held from November 11 through January 2. From November 11 until December 9, hours are 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. with tickets available online for $16 and at the gate for $20. Starting December 10, gates open at 5 p.m. with tickets available online only for $18. Guests are required to reserve an entrance time when purchasing tickets to help prevent overcrowding. 

Holiday Lights on Horseback

Looking for something out of the ordinary for this holiday season? Try the Holiday Lights on Horseback, held at Foxfire Farm in Brandywine, Maryland. The trail ride, which lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, meanders through the farm’s grounds amid a twinkling light display. No experience with horseback riding is necessary, and the tour is available for ages 10 and up. After your ride, relax by the bonfire and enjoy a beverage from the hot cocoa bar. Rides are held throughout the month of December, with online tickets starting at $60. 

Ice & Lights – The Winter Village at Cameron Run

Every year, the water park at Cameron Run is transformed into Ice & Lights, a holiday celebration featuring light displays, an ice-skating rink, an elf scavenger hunt, and more. A snack shop, the Slice ‘n Ice, sells items such as coffee, hot chocolate, donut holes, pizza, and hot dogs. Due to capacity limits, tickets are only available online, with prices starting at $8. The village is open from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. nightly, from November 19 through January 2, including holidays. Skate times last for one hour, and you must choose your entry time when you buy your ticket.  

Old Town Christmas Market and Holiday Craft Show

Support your local artisans this year by doing your holiday shopping at the Old Town Christmas Market and Holiday Craft Show in Alexandria. You’ll find vendors selling everything from candles to baked goods to hand-crafted jewelry and more at the annual event. While you’re there, enjoy live entertainment, hot chocolate, and dessert in a festive, holiday atmosphere. It’s free to enter and held on December 11 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. 

Holiday Evenings at Rippon Lodge

Experience what the holiday season was like years ago during Holiday Evenings at Rippon Lodge. The lodge’s interior and its grounds are both lavishly decorated for the season. Take your time observing the various exhibits displaying holiday decor from several different periods of American history. Holiday Evenings takes place throughout the month of December on various nights, so check the website for more information. Tickets are $10 per person, and children 6 and under are free. Reservations are recommended. 

Santa Clause makes a special visit to the lodge on December 11 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Tickets are $5 per child for this event, and adults are admitted free of charge. Parents are invited to take pictures of their children with Santa and are asked to pack snacks and their patience as this is always a popular event.   

Christmas in a Civil War Camp

Have you ever wondered how Civil War soldiers celebrated the holidays? Find out at Christmas in a Civil War Camp, hosted at Bristoe Heritage Battlefield Heritage Park. Enjoy living history demonstrations as well as a visit from a Civil War Santa Clause. If you bring the kids, nineteenth-century era Christmas crafts are available for them to complete.

Whether you live in the Alexandria area, want to take a weekend trip to see the local sights, or just have a few hours to burn, you can find a wide variety of fun and unique things to do. This northern Virginia city makes the most of its waterfront location along the Potomac River, offering activities out on the water and on dry land. Take a look at some unique ways to spend the day in Alexandria.

Take a Historical Tour

Take a guided tour of the city and learn about Alexandria’s history, architecture, and more. You can choose from several different tour options:

Alexandria the Great Tour

See all of Alexandria’s Old Town either on foot or by Segway on the Alexandria the Great Tour. You’ll get to see the city’s historic sites, such as City Hall, George Washington’s House, Christ Church, and the Wilkes Street Tunnel. Choose the Segway tour and travel farther than you would with any of the other tours of the city.

Alexandria Colonial Tours

The Colonial Tours include the original Ghost and Graveyard Tour and the Alexandria History Tour. The ghost tour takes place after dark and includes a guide who brings you back to the 18th century by wearing period clothing and lighting the way by lantern. The Alexandria History Tour takes you along George Washington’s path and over brick-lined streets with Federal-style homes and alleyways made from cobblestones.

Manumission Tour Company

Explore Alexandria’s past with Manumission Tour Company. Their guided cultural heritage tours focus on the African American history of the city. They offer tours every weekend from February through December.

Visit the Torpedo Factory Art Center

The Torpedo Factory Art Center features a large collection of working artists and their studios. They all work under one roof, in a building that used to be a munitions plant. A visit to the art center not only includes the studios of 82 working artists, but it also features the Target Gallery, The Art League Gallery, and the Enamelists Gallery. If you want to do more with your day than just view art, you can also take a class. There are seminars, classes, and workshops for artists of all levels, whether you are just getting started or want to improve on the skills you already have.

Take a Waterfront Cruise

There’s no better way to get a good look at Alexandria than from the Potomac River. Spend your day out on the water on one of the many available cruises.

Tall Ship Providence

Set sail on the Providence and enjoy a two-hour cruise that includes a brief history of the ship. You can explore the ship and visit the hold and the captain’s cabin and then sit out on the deck to enjoy the views.

Canine Cruise

Bring your four-legged companion on a cruise around the Alexandria seaport. City Cruises offers this adventure, which is a popular activity for locals. You can go with or without your own dog, but if you bring your furry friend, they get to ride free. Keep in mind that dogs need to be on a 6-foot flat leash at all times.

Mount Vernon Cruise

Spend your afternoon taking in the views of Alexandria and the surrounding area along the Potomac on the Mount Vernon Cruise. It includes an onboard narration with information and history about the sites. Once you get to George and Martha’s home, you can take three hours to explore. There’s a self-guided tour that includes an interpretive Pioneer Farm, George Washington’s tomb, and the Education Center.

Explore Old Town

Old Town is Alexandria’s historic waterfront district. You’ll walk along cobblestone streets and brick sidewalks as you explore. The vibrant area features many cafes, shops, galleries, and restaurants, with events happening almost every day. The downtown area centers around the King Street Mile. This unique street is lined with old architecture, historic attractions, and much more. When in Old Town, make sure to stroll down the King Street Mile or, if you don’t want to walk, take a ride on the King Street Trolley. You should also make sure to visit the Spite House. This house is the skinniest historic house in America. The owner built it in 1830 to keep people out of the alley.

Visit the Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Museum

A visit to Alexandria should always include a visit to the Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Museum. The family-run apothecary was first opened in 1792. It hasn’t changed much since it opened, and as soon as you step through the doors, you’ll feel like you are back in 1805. The Stabler-Leadbeater family owned the apothecary, which now features a fantastic collection of pharmaceuticals and archival materials.

Take a stroll through the aisles to see old medical equipment, hand blown glass containers, journals, and old ledgers. You can explore on your own and take a self-guided tour of the museum or take a 45-minute guided tour with a knowledgeable guide who will take you through the first and second floors.

Take a Walk Along the Waterfront

Alexandria has a beautiful waterfront. You can take a walk through several parks with sites and attractions along the way. Start your stroll at Tide Lock Park, where you can see the waterfalls and pools. Make your way south to Oronoco Bay and Founders Park and then on to Waterfront Park, where you can stop for a bite to eat on King Street and check out the rotating public art installations.

Head south again and take a short detour through the Wilkes Street Tunnel, which will then bring you through Windmill Hill Park. You can end your walk at Jones Point Park, where you’ll see the only lighthouse left in the Chesapeake Bay area.

These are some of our favorite ways to spend the day in Alexandria. If you have any other unique activities in the area that we should add to this list, let us know so we can check them out.

Inside the Kona’s cabin, the first thing you’ll notice is that it’s a place where function and design meet. Available leather-trimmed seats and standard cloth seats not only provide the best comfort but also look amazing and set the scene for the rest of the interior.

Additional cabin design elements, depending on the trim level you choose, include a shift knob and leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum-alloy sport pedals, gloss black interior accents, and a black headliner.

To make sure this SUV’s interior matches your style, you can customize its cabin with a color scheme that speaks to you. You’ll have the option of choosing either the black or gray interior color.

The Kona’s cargo area also has in-floor storage for storing smaller items and tethering points that double as hooks for hanging grocery items.

Dashboard and Driving Position

The driver’s seat in the 2022 Hyundai Kona is set a few centimeters high, so you’ll feel as if you’re behind the wheel of something higher than the ordinary hatchback. In addition, the driving position is perfect as the pedals are in line with the steering wheel, and there is plenty of steering wheel fine-tuning.

The eight-way power driver’s seat includes power lumbar support. Heated seats are also available in the front of the Kona and provide three perfect settings for chilly mornings. The Kona’s dashboard is both functional and stylish. The 8-inch infotainment system has been placed high up, so it’s easier to glance at quickly, and there’s a crisp 10.25-inch digital instrument panel.

Infotainment System

The 2022 Hyundai Kona comes standard with a user-friendly infotainment system adjustable through physical controls or the touch screen. The 8-inch touch-screen display is standard on all trim levels and compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This makes it easy to synchronize your smart devices to the car’s system to access navigation, music, or apps.

If you enjoy listening to music when driving, you’ll want to make the most of the Infinity Premium Audio system. This state-of-the-art system consists of eight speakers and an external amplifier, so you and your passengers will be immersed in quality sound. Additionally, with SiriusXM Satellite Radio and HD Radio, you’ll have many channels to listen to.

This system is easy to use and includes almost everything most drivers would want from their infotainment system.

The SUV offers several storage points, including glove boxes, bottle holders, cubby holes, etc. Wireless charging pads and USB ports throughout the SUV allow your gadgets to be charged at all times. The SUV comes with convenience features like a coin holder, push-button start, and a large glove box on the passenger side.

Additionally, it comes packed with handy safety features, like forward collision avoidance assist.

This article will explore the six trim options and features of the 2021 Hyundai Veloster. Irrespective of the trim you choose, you’ll have a long list of added features to check out in your new Hyundai. At Koons Woodbridge Hyundai in Woodridge, Virginia, our new vehicle inventory is intended to provide you with the ideal Veloster for your lifestyle.

It starts at $18,900 and comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission and provides buyers with the option to get a six-speed automatic transmission. The 2.0 trim rides on 17-inch alloy wheels and comes with tinted glass and a rear spoiler. Additionally, the projector headlights turn on automatically, the side mirrors come with a heating element, and the LED daytime running lights are a great safety feature. And since the hatchback does have a more vertical rear window, it comes with a single-speed rear wiper.

This transmission is frequently seen in high-performing automobiles, and most drivers fancy it as they don’t have to shift manually. Unlike the R-Spec, which uses performance tires, the Turbo uses all-season tires. 

The Turbo edition is sportier than the other trims and boasts a Matte Blue exterior, carefully chosen just for this trim. It rides on 18-inch wheels and comes outfitted with an all-leather interior and a B&M sport shifter. Additionally, the automatic temperature control system added to the Turbo trim level lets you set it and forget it.

The 2022 Hyundai Palisade is a well-rounded midsize SUV that can meet the transportation needs of a wide range of drivers. Besides a potent engine and supple handling, this SUV also features a spacious and comfortable cabin with a generous array of features. Check out this comprehensive guide to find out more about the interior of the latest Hyundai Palisade:

Trim Levels and Prices

The interior of the Hyundai Palisade may vary significantly depending on which trim level you choose. For the 2022 model year, this Hyundai model is offered in four trims: the SE, SEL, Limited, and the Calligraphy. The SE comes with a base price of $33,150, while the SEL starts at $35,500. If you opt for the Limited, you’ll have to fork out at least $45,390. The range-topping Calligraphy will set you back a minimum of $46,690.

Build and Design

The 2022 Hyundai Palisade boasts an impeccably crafted cabin that features a sleek and elegant design. It has a beautifully contoured dashboard that sits low for enhanced outward visibility and wide bands of switches that make adjusting the temperature a breeze. Additionally, it comes with a push-button transmission selector instead of a traditional gear shifter, which adds to the airy environment of the cockpit. The SUV also provides an exceptionally quiet ride, thanks to its acoustically laminated windshields and windows, sound-absorbing carpets, and other noise-reduction features. 

Even the base model of the Hyundai Palisade looks and feels upscale with an abundance of premium materials and soft-touch surfaces. If you prefer a more elegant cabin, you should opt for the Limited or Calligraphy. The Calligraphy approaches luxury territory with suede headliners, quilted leather surfaces, and wood trim. Overall, the Palisade has one of the most attractive and refined interiors in its segment. 

Seating

The Hyundai Palisade is a three-row SUV that can seat a maximum of eight people. However, if you choose to have two captain’s chairs instead of a bench seat in the second row, the seating capacity will be reduced to seven. 

All three rows of seats are roomy enough to comfortably accommodate adults. The first- and second-row seats are especially spacious, providing ample legroom and headroom for even tall adults to stretch out. Whether you’re stuck in traffic or taking a long drive on the open road, you’ll have a comfortable and relaxing ride in this SUV, thanks to its well-padded and ergonomically contoured seats. 

The entry-level model of the Palisade comes with cloth upholstery. However, if you opt for a higher trim, you’ll have access to upgrades such as leather upholstery, power front seats, ventilated and heated front and second-row seats, power-folding third-row seats, and a heated steering wheel. 

Cargo Capacity

Another aspect of the Hyundai Palisade that makes it a great family vehicle is its expansive cargo area. The SUV offers 18 cubic feet of storage space behind the rearmost seats, 45.8 cubic feet behind the middle-row seats, and an impressive 86.4 cubic feet behind the front seats. That’s more cargo room than what most midsize SUVs offer. With so much space at your disposal, you can even store bulky items such as sports equipment, camping gear, and school projects.

The rear seats of the Palisade fold flat, which makes it easier to organize your cargo. Also, the cargo area has an underfloor storage area that allows you to keep valuable belongings out of sight. For more convenient load and unloading, you can get the available hands-free power lift-gate. 

Comfort and Convenience Features

The base Hyundai Palisade doesn’t have any notable comfort and convenience features. However, if you choose the SEL, you’ll enjoy amenities such as dual-zone automatic climate control, push-button start, remote start, and a sun-roof. The Limited and Calligraphy add a dual-panel sun-roof and an intercom. 

Infotainment Features

To help you stay connected, informed, and entertained on the go, the 2022 Hyundai Palisade offers an intuitive infotainment system that’s packed with the latest features. This system has a touch-screen display that responds quickly to inputs and delivers crystal-clear graphics. The display is conveniently located on the dashboard, making it easy to see and reach. 

The Hyundai Palisade comes standard with an 8-inch touch-screen display, five USB ports, Bluetooth, HD radio, and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. For a better in-vehicle experience, you can opt for available features such as a 10.25-inch touch-screen display, a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, extra USB ports, a wireless device charger, satellite radio, and navigation. 

Driver-Assistance Technologies

Besides providing you with a comfortable and enjoyable ride, the 2022 Hyundai Palisade is also equipped with a long list of standard driver-assistance technologies to minimize your risk of accidents. These features include blind-spot detection, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, forward-collision alert, lane-departure alert, lane-keeping assistance, pedestrian monitoring, rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, rear cross-traffic warning, driver-drowsiness detection, and vehicle exit alert. Available features include a head-up display, front parking sensors, and a surround-view parking camera system. 

Packages

If you decide to buy the Hyundai Palisade SEL, you have the option of getting the Convenience package and the Premium package. The Convenience package includes additional USB ports, wireless device charging, front parking sensors, a hands-free power lift-gate, and a self-leveling rear suspension. You have to purchase this package to gain access to the Premium package. 

The Premium package adds a heated steering wheel, leather upholstery, a power front-passenger seat, heated middle-row seats, power-folding third-row seats, a 10.25-inch touch-screen display, satellite radio, navigation, and an intercom. With this package, you can replace the SEL’s standard second-row captain’s chairs with a bench seat at no extra cost.  

Few midsize SUVs out there can hold a candle to the 2022 Hyundai Palisade in terms of interior quality, comfort, and feature content. If you’re looking for a family-friendly vehicle, you won’t go wrong with this one.
