2026 Hyundai Palisade at Red McCombs Hyundai: San Antonio’s Standout Family SUV

Redesigned, reimagined, and ready to rule San Antonio roads, the 2026 Hyundai Palisade blends family comfort with premium utility. Featuring a new, more powerful V6 engine and the option to upgrade to the XRT PRO trim with serious off-road capabilities, the Palisade is made for Texas families who expect more from their SUV. Compared to rivals like the Ford Explorer and Honda Pilot, the Palisade stands out with more interior refinement and a smoother ride than even its Santa Fe sibling.

All trim levels – SE, SEL, Limited, Calligraphy, XRT, and XRT PRO – are available now at Red McCombs Hyundai.
