Good but room for improvement
The good: First, fit and finish seem very good. Comfort is extremely good, initial quality zero issues at 2,200 miles. Noise level the Palisade is very quiet with a very smooth ride. It's roomy for a "mid-size" SUV.
The mediocre: Power is lacking, the transmission downshifts a lot on the highway trying to keep in the power. The audio system has nowhere near the sound quality of the B&O in my F150. The start button and shifter stalk take a lot of getting used to.
The ugly: The Hyundai Driver Assist (HDA) is just bad. No matter where you are in your lane it wants to be somewhere else, and fights you the entire time. The automated lane change is just dangerous, the system swerves hard into the other lane and usually overshoots the lane entirely. The system is just so bad I normally keep it turned off, however every time I engage the cruise control it re-engages HDA. The speed limit sign reader frequently reads highway number signs as speed limits, so driving on highway 90 or 80 it thinks that is the speed limit. By default it turns on automatic speed control, where the cruise sets to what it sees the speed limit to be. The system has gotten me going way too fast many times, until I figured out how to turn it off. Again, the system can be dangerous. Hyundai needs to seriously upgrade the entire HDA system, or just junk it. It's that bad.
Overall, it's a nice vehicle with many places for improvement. I'm not unhappy with the vehicle, but I'm not totally happy with it either.
