Thanks for the feedback! This was a bit of an experiment for us. And you are 100% right, the dealership experience has a huge impact on ownership satisfaction.
Both cars are great. They were my 2 options when looking for a bigger car with comfy 3rd row. I ended up getting the Palisade because of my personal preferences, AND also because Kia dealers were charging almost double dealer fees than Hyundai...at least here in FL
I chose the Palisade over Telluride for a variety of reasons (including dealer mark up at the time), but some things to highlight that are not mentioned in the video: - Power operated 3rd row (vs. manual operation in the Telluride) - Rear climate controls easier to access for shorter folks (console vs. ceiling) - Ambient lighting (admittedly a Calligraphy-only trim) - More adjustable driver's seat (massaging & adjustable side support) - Heated 3rd row (if you care or have people back there frequently enough)
The format of this type of video is helpful. Lots of us respect your opinion, and instead of a long winded comparison(which is nice in some cases) the concise nature is great! I would love more videos like this!
We have a 2020 Telluride S with AWD. I like the square looks more than the Palisade. It looks more rugged than the Palisade. The Telluride has been amazing for us. It still looks great, and it's still a pleasure to drive. Kia hit it out of the park with this one!
IMO the Palisade Limited is the best bang for your buck. You’re getting all the tech, leather seats and the better looking black grille. Cheaper than comparable Kia SX Prestige.
Agree on if you want Luxury features, Palisade is a better value. You can get a Heated Steering wheel on the mid-level Palisade SEL with Premium Package, where on Kia Telluride you have to go all the way up to the SX Prestige. Plus free maintenance.
While comparable Telluride's have a lower MSRP than Palisade's, in the real world; the Kia dealerships have more markup on the Telluride's than the Hyundai dealers do on the Palisade, meaning in real world pricing the Hyundai is often cheaper than the Kia.That also held true in pre-2024 comparisons of pricing for the Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento.
This is like comparing the Chevy Silverado vs GMC Sierra. Same vehicle basically, with a few different accents. The differences are cosmetic at best. I've driven and/or owned both pickup trucks and currently own the Palisade Limited while my wife's friend has a Telluride so I've had the chance to examine all four vehicles. It really comes down to price and what co0smetic features fit your style.
I own the Telluride 2024 XLine model!Not to be biased but I love my telluride and prefer the look of the Telluride. Love your reviews, keep up the good job! ❤
Great review and a comparison that we've been doing as well (although we are also including the new Santa Fe in the mix). Comparing more luxury Features, the Hyundai Palisade seems to have an advantage. You can get a Heated Steering wheel on the mid-level Palisade SEL with Premium Package, where on Kia Telluride you have to go all the way up to the SX Prestige. Plus Hyundai also gets FREE 3 years / 36K complementary scheduled maintenance. In our region, the Kia dealers upcharge more than Hyundai so that seems to negate the small price differences. Definitely agree with you on liking the Kia styling better. Love your videos!
Here’s why your wrong😂 The palisade offers: Heated 3rd Row Massage Driver Seat Smart Park Power Folding Third Row All Painted Tire Fender on Top Trim 1MPG Better 😂
In a previous video, you said the seats were more comfortable in the palisade. But I would still go with Telluride as soon as they update the UI for wireless connectivity.
local hyundai dealer advertising on line over $7000 off on palisade limited and calligraphy models that have been on lot for 60+ days. i don't need one but that's tempting
I was also considering Palisade/Telluride a couple years ago when I was in the market for a mid-size SUV. I ended up buying an Outback and I am happy I did. Yes, kias and hyundais look nice when new, but brand reputation in my opinion is still behind the best japanese brands, and when its no longer new you are left with just kia/hyundai
I had a beautiful Dark Moss Nightfall 2021 Telluride with light grey interior, that my wife totaled :( We are looking again but apparently, to my frustration, Kia no longer makes the dark moss with dark trim with a light interior anymore. It seems all Kia makes is black interiors now and occasional brown, both of which do not do it for us. As a result, we are going with a Palisade.
I think y’all are head on with your comparison, I have driven both. I like the cup holders and extra console storage in the Palaside, however I like the style and room of the Telluride. One thing that I will mention is that my Telluride litigate is handsfree and I love it!! Telluride for a win for me and I’d never take mine off-road!😂
I think price difference for the rims should be mentioned far as price. When I looked at telluride with black rims it’s in the EX LINE 47k while Palisade XRT black rims 43k. Informative video overall. Thank you
I like the Telluride slightly better... I often confuse the 2 🤔... The amber lights on the Telluride are sweet. ...side note...really liked the music bed... well done Michah 👍
@@MicahMuzio 12 years 5 states... I left teaching after 5 years because radio paid better... I decided to tap out after 1 year of teaching here in Florida. That was 15 years ago and I'm still good with my decision. 🤣
If you look at the actual crash tests on IIHS, the telluride crashes better. Palisade has lower marks in certain categories for the driver and rear passengers
No you wouldn’t This isn’t 1990. This is 2024. Hyundai Kia are making segment busting cars. Toyota is only making mediocre uncompetitive cars Hyundai Kia are the new Toyota
Honestly I had a Toyota before my Palisade, brand new Rav4, and had to take it to the dealer 4 times in less than 2 years for replacement of defective parts. I have had my Hyundai Palisade for 2 years, no problems so far. Plus you get 10 years or 100000 miles warranty, and 3 years of free maintenance at the dealer
@@ALMX5DP but that’s the thing. Both of them are so well executed that it’s difficult. I would probably lean to the palisade but the Telly is just as good
I like the look of the Telluride better than the Palisade because the Palisade looks like a Cadillac SUV. Don't like that wide C pillar on the Hyundai.
I have had my Hyundai Sonata for more than 11 years over 235,000 miles, and it still drives good. No major issues except normal wear and tear. I have gotten my money's worth. It still looks good. I don't buy new cars but ever 10-15 years anyway. All I need is for my car to give me 10 years and I'm good. I will get the Palisades as my next car.
what gets me is major reviewer magazines and such rate palisade right under telluride or 3rd or 4th under it. seriously it's that different? yet they say it rides the same and basically all the same features. kia must be greasing someone's palms. personally i think telly front end is hideous, not that palisade is all that great. people decide on a car because the DRL are amber instead of white? smh...
@@JonMoralesLA So respectfully, it depends - we have 2 SUVs and a minivan - our Great Pyrenees can't jump up into the SUVs and at 120 lbs and still growing - he's too big to carry. But our Chrysler Pacifica (or any van with stow-n-go) - we simply fold the middle row into the floor and he steps up and rides comfortably. It's also roomier, rides better and is more practical than the SUVs - so we choose it over our SUVs for long trips. To each their own - but for on road use, the minivan nails the family needs.
You’d have to get an RS or a ZL1 to compare to a mid model telluride. Plus the highest model of Telluride which has way better interior design than a zl1 traverse is about 2-4K cheaper. I was on the market for a traverse and opted to keep my 2021 telluride until the 2025 comes out. I sat in a traverse and it looked like shat.
I think it's pretty clear from your video history that Evie wants the BMW 4 series convertible
I'm liking this format of quick comparison.
Also, one huge delineating factor is the dealership experience.
Thanks for the feedback! This was a bit of an experiment for us. And you are 100% right, the dealership experience has a huge impact on ownership satisfaction.
I'd never recommend a Hyundai because of the dealer experience. Kia is marginally better, but still better!
Don't go in there asking for like 15K off MSRP and you will be just fine.
Both cars are great. They were my 2 options when looking for a bigger car with comfy 3rd row. I ended up getting the Palisade because of my personal preferences, AND also because Kia dealers were charging almost double dealer fees than Hyundai...at least here in FL
I chose the Palisade over Telluride for a variety of reasons (including dealer mark up at the time), but some things to highlight that are not mentioned in the video:
- Power operated 3rd row (vs. manual operation in the Telluride)
- Rear climate controls easier to access for shorter folks (console vs. ceiling)
- Ambient lighting (admittedly a Calligraphy-only trim)
- More adjustable driver's seat (massaging & adjustable side support)
- Heated 3rd row (if you care or have people back there frequently enough)
Excellent comments! I love hearing from an actual owner.
The Palisade looks better IMO, and more features...Power 3rd row, I believe it has 2 more speakers and paddle shifters.

limited only has silver grill altho all the online dealers show black as they're using generic photos. i rather have black as well
I like the pallisade

Dealers are still marking these up around you? Most Kia dealers are actually marking them down because supply has outpaced demand
I love my telluride 2024 ❤❤❤best car yet

Appreciate the review always great honest opinions
Thanks for quick n to the point video!
This video is so good. No waste of time. No bs talk just str8 facts. You earned a sub. Can you do tucson v palisade?
The only thing different is the platform it’s built on and the features inside. I sell them.

What a content, love it❤
Great video 👍 you guys have a cool family 🤗 and do a great job on comparisons 😉
Thanks for leaving such a kind comment, Jimmy. Cheers!!
Here’s why your wrong😂
The palisade offers:
Heated 3rd Row
Massage Driver Seat
Smart Park
Power Folding Third Row
All Painted Tire Fender on Top Trim
1MPG Better 😂
Hey, I have to respect your directness. :) Also, those are all valid points.
Definitely I will buy one of these 2! !! But I’m having a tough time deciding which one.
In a previous video, you said the seats were more comfortable in the palisade. But I would still go with Telluride as soon as they update the UI for wireless connectivity.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

If it wasn’t the brands reputation then I would easily chose Telluride. I’ll pick the Grand Highlander over both of these.
No you wouldn’t

toyota isn't any better than any other brand. cars costing 4x the price are in shop for repairs.
Both are still the best in class. This is proof that brands know how to execute to perfection
Can’t say that about some ostensibly nonexistent brands…
Both can’t be the best, there can only be one best.
@@ALMX5DP but that’s the thing. Both of them are so well executed that it’s difficult. I would probably lean to the palisade but the Telly is just as good
@@naveenthemachine if you lean Palisade then I guess the Telluride isn’t the best.
It's all a matter of preference😊
I like the look of the Telluride better than the Palisade because the Palisade looks like a Cadillac SUV. Don't like that wide C pillar on the Hyundai.
Lease it...don't buy Hyundai/Kia...if you want to own vehicle long term then get TX/MDX...I bet you already know this 😃😃.

Nobody will attempt to take these things off the pavement. Therefore, almost any minivan would serve a family better. But, you know, SUV=cool, right?
Minivans have almost the exact same price and MPG. Who cares?
Yeah a minivan gives you the sliding doors but in the end these get the job done.
There are not a lot of minivan options at the moment, and if you live in the snow only the Toyota has AWD
@@JonMoralesLA So respectfully, it depends - we have 2 SUVs and a minivan - our Great Pyrenees can't jump up into the SUVs and at 120 lbs and still growing - he's too big to carry. But our Chrysler Pacifica (or any van with stow-n-go) - we simply fold the middle row into the floor and he steps up and rides comfortably. It's also roomier, rides better and is more practical than the SUVs - so we choose it over our SUVs for long trips. To each their own - but for on road use, the minivan nails the family needs.
@@JonMoralesLA what job is that?
Neither I would rather buy a Chevrolet Traverse or a GMC Acadia, people are really over the Palisade and Telluride, old news
You’d have to get an RS or a ZL1 to compare to a mid model telluride. Plus the highest model of Telluride which has way better interior design than a zl1 traverse is about 2-4K cheaper. I was on the market for a traverse and opted to keep my 2021 telluride until the 2025 comes out. I sat in a traverse and it looked like shat.
GM worst vehicles i ever had. behind on safety and technology. those 2 models don't even make the top 10
Don't buy any now. Both will be redesigned with fuel efficient engine for 2025. Buy only if the dealer offers a huge discount.
I want to tell you you're wrong, but I don't know if you're wrong or not, so I will just leave this needlessly long, pointless comment about it.
Telluride is not roomier. If you look at ur knees at 3rd row its squished in telluride and palladium ur freeballn. Stop
Palisade has an identity problem. That's why Hyundai keeps tweaking its design every year.
They only changed the design once for a mid cycle refresh. The kia also changed its design once but it just looks more similar to the pre refresh.
every brand tweaks a model every year until a refresh every 3-5 years
again? Kia Telluride Hyundai Palisade........
I which palisade was a kia. I hate Hyundai as a brand and its image
palisade is a kia is a hyundai is a genesis just like lexus is a toyota and acura is a nissan and gmc is a chevy is a gm like audi is a vw
Nobody is gonna use these grocery getters off road, at least not anyone smart.
Looks like the Telluride has got the ground clearance advantage, just by looking at the two?
