The new Palisade Turbo HEV features vertically-stacked daytime running lights and headlights which are positioned inboard of the DRLs. It features a full-length front LED lightbar, while the massive grille itself has a horizontal segmented pattern that emphasizes its width. A silver trim runs across the top of the windshield which is made to look continuous running the doors to the D-pillar and roof rails. At the back, the same vertically-stacked design echoes the front. Fitted with 21-inch wheels, it balances upscale refinement with a touch of ruggedness.

As its name suggests, the Palisade Turbo HEV is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged hybrid engine mated to a 6-speed automatic. All in all, it produces 334 horsepower and 422 Nm of torque from as low as 1,700 rpm.

As the top-of-the-line Calligraphy variant, it offers a sophisticated driving experience anchored in true luxury and technology. The cabin is filled with intuitive technologies, one being the fingerprint recognition system to operate the Audio, Visual, and Navigation system (AVN) as well as the engine start function. The integrated 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 12.3-inch infotainment screen provides a vast screen where the driver and passenger can access several functions. Furthermore, a heads-up display projects pertinent vehicle information in the driver’s field of view. A 14-speaker Bose sound system provides a high-quality auditory experience.

Elevating the experience for all passengers, the Palisade Turbo HEV boasts of power adjustable seats, ventilated seats for the first two rows, and a unique Relaxation Seat function for both the first and second-row seats. At the center, a deluxe console box with UV-C tray adds a thoughtful layer of hygiene and convenience.
