2027 Hyundai Palisade for Sale in Fort Smith, AR

Shoppers across the River Valley looking for a three-row SUV with genuine curb appeal should take a serious look at the 2027 Hyundai Palisade in Fort Smith, AR. A 287-hp V6 comes standard across all six trims, and the lineup covers everything from an approachable SE model to the fully loaded Calligraphy.

A Palisade Hybrid joins the 2027 lineup too, running on its own 329-hp powertrain for buyers interested in that route.

Crain Hyundai of Fort Smith carries the 2027 Palisade and can get you behind the wheel today.

What's New for 2027?

Hyundai kept things steady with the Palisade for 2027, building on last year's ground-up redesign rather than introducing sweeping changes. The stiffer chassis and roomier cabin from that redesign carry forward as-is.

2027 Model Notes:

• Redesigned platform from last year's overhaul continues unchanged

• SEL Convenience trim discontinued

• Quantum Silver replaces Typhoon Silver as an available color

• Leatherette steering wheel wrap now standard across the lineup

The Palisade backs up its curb appeal with strong standard equipment:

• 287-hp 3.5-liter V6 mated to an 8-speed automatic

• Seating for seven or eight, depending on second-row layout

• 12.3-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation

• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

• SmartSense Safety Suite standard lineup-wide

• Towing capacity up to 5,000 pounds

• High-power USB-C charging across all three rows

Capability like that is a big reason the Palisade gets recommended for real towing needs, not just grocery runs.

Every 2027 Palisade ships with automated emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and automatic high-beams standard, regardless of trim.

Hyundai markets this technology as SmartSense, and stepping up the lineup unlocks parking sensors, blind-spot view cameras, and lane-centering steering.

SmartSense Essentials:

• Automated emergency braking

• Lane-keeping assist

• Adaptive cruise control

• Blind-spot monitoring

• Automatic high-beams

• Available lane-centering steering and parking sensors

A 12.3-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation sits at the center of the Palisade's dashboard, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto cover most drivers' phone-mirroring needs. Add in an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot and Amazon Alexa, and the cabin stays connected on longer drives.

Hyundai Pay rounds things out, letting drivers pay for gas or parking straight from the touchscreen without pulling out a card.

Tech Highlights:

• 12.3-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation

• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

• Onboard Wi-Fi hotspot and Amazon Alexa

• Hyundai Pay in-car payment technology

• USB-C charging ports in all three rows

The Palisade's front row offers generous space, with a dashboard influenced by mid-century modern furniture design. A three-person bench is standard in the second row for eight-passenger seating, though buyers can swap in reclining captain's chairs with footrests for a seven-passenger setup instead.

Third-row seating handles kids easily and adults on shorter trips, and upper trims add power-adjustable third-row seats operable from the cargo area. Cargo space runs 19.1 cubic feet behind the third row, expanding to 46.3 cubic feet with it folded.

Seating & Storage:

• Standard second-row bench for eight-passenger seating

• Optional reclining captain's chairs (seven-passenger)

• Power-adjustable third row on upper trims

• 19.1 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, 46.3 with it folded

The 2027 Palisade spans six trims, each building on the last.

SE is the starting point:

• 287-hp V6 with 12.3-inch touchscreen and navigation

• SmartSense Safety Suite standard

• High-power USB-C charging in all three rows

SEL adds comfort touches:

• H-Tex trimmed seats

• Second-row captain's chairs

• Hands-free smart liftgate with auto open

SEL Premium brings more convenience:

• Surround View Monitor

• Heated and ventilated front and second-row seats

• Ambient interior lighting

Limited pushes toward luxury:

• 20-inch alloy wheels

• Leather-trimmed seats

• Heated seats in all three rows

XRT Pro adds off-road ability:

• HTRAC AWD with electronic rear limited-slip differential

• All-terrain tires with increased ground clearance

• Integrated tow hitch

Calligraphy sits at the top:

• 21-inch alloy wheels

• Integrated front and rear dash cam

• 4-way power second-row captain's chairs with Relaxation Mode

Shoppers comparing three-row SUVs in the area often put the Palisade up against the Toyota Grand Highlander.

Hyundai Confidence: Warranty Coverage You Can Count On

Hyundai promotes this coverage as America's Best Warranty, and it holds up as a real selling point.

• 5-year/60,000-mile limited warranty

• 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty (original owner)
