The 2023 Hyundai Palisade vs. Kia Telluride: Compare 3-Row Family SUVs in Erie, PA

Looking for a midsize SUV to move your family around in Fairview, PA? The 2023 Hyundai Palisade is a spacious three-row SUV that's filled with useful tech features. It also gets outstanding safety ratings. The 2023 Honda Pilot is a roomy midsize SUV, but it doesn't offer as much for your money as the Palisade. Dave Hallman Hyundai has created the following comparison of the Palisade and the Pilot to help you choose between the two crossovers.

Performance

If you want to be able to pass other vehicles on Pennsylvania Route 97 in Erie, PA, you need an SUV with some get-up-and-go. The 2023 Hyundai Palisade comes standard with a 291-horsepower V6 engine that provides plenty of juice for most driving situations. Its eight-speed automatic transmission offers smooth and prompt shifts. The 2023 Honda Pilot comes with a 285-horsepower V6 motor. Its 10-speed automatic transmission does a lot of shifting, and it can feel rather busy in everyday driving.

Both the 2023 Hyundai Palisade and the 2023 Honda Pilot can tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. However, Edinboro drivers will appreciate that the Palisade can tow that amount regardless of whether it has front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The Pilot can only tow 3,500 pounds in its front-wheel drive configuration.

You need an SUV that will start and run every day so you can get yourself to work and get the kids to school on time in Fairview. The 2023 Hyundai Palisade received an 84 out of 100 score from J.D. Power. The 2023 Honda Pilot scored 81 out of 100 for reliability.

Interior

The 2023 Hyundai Palisade has one of the nicest interiors in its segment, with an attractive, modern design and high-quality materials with a good fit-and-finish. Top-tier Palisade Calligraphy trims have perforated Nappa leather upholstery and real wood trim. The 2023 Honda Pilot also has a sleek, modern cabin, but its materials don't improve much in the higher trim levels.

Both the 2023 Hyundai Palisade and the 2023 Honda Pilot have spacious interiors that seat up to eight passengers. However, the Palisade is roomier in back, with an adult-friendly third row that has 31.4 inches of legroom. Adults can cram into the third row of the Pilot in a pinch, but it's better served for shuttling kids.

Safety

Careful people in North East will rest assured about their safety in the 2023 Hyundai Palisade, which earned Top Safety Pick+ honors from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It comes standard with 13 driver assistance features to help you stay safe. The 2023 Honda Pilot only comes with 9 advanced active safety features.

Technology

A feature-rich infotainment system makes crawling through slow traffic in McKean more bearable. The 2023 Hyundai Palisade comes standard with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that has navigation and Apple Carplay and Android Auto smartphone integration. The 2023 Honda Pilot comes with a 7-inch touchscreen and its upgrade is only nine inches long. Navigation is just optional for the Pilot.
