The 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid is a major step forward for Hyundai’s flagship SUV, marking the first time this popular three-row vehicle is available with a hybrid powertrain. Available now at McFarland Hyundai in North Hampton, NH, the new Palisade Hybrid redefines what families can expect from a three-row SUV, offering greater efficiency, more power, and enhanced comfort for your family drives around Epping and Portsmouth.
Big Changes for the 2026 Palisade vs. 2025
Unlike the 2025 Palisade, which was only offered with a traditional gas-powered V6, the 2026 model introduces a bold new hybrid setup. Powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with two electric motors, the Palisade Hybrid generates an impressive 329 combined horsepower; significantly more than the outgoing 287-horsepower V6. This added power translates to smoother acceleration, stronger towing potential, and a more responsive driving experience, plus the hybrid powertrain means more flexibility as well.
The hybrid also delivers outstanding efficiency. Hyundai estimates a total driving range of about 619 miles on a single tank, making it an ideal choice for road trips across New England or long commutes through the Seacoast region. Drivers from York, ME to Newburyport, MA will appreciate fewer stops at the gas station without sacrificing performance or space.
Speaking of space, the 2026 Palisade Hybrid features a longer wheelbase and larger side windows, offering more legroom and visibility for third-row passengers. This extra room adds comfort for growing families or anyone who regularly travels with a full cabin. The cabin itself continues to reflect Hyundai’s focus on luxury, with premium materials, high-tech displays, and advanced safety features coming standard.
