When you need a vehicle that offers the capability and dependable towing to tackle all of your adventures, you need one of the new Hyundai SUV models. To help you understand how the new Hyundai SUVs compare, let's look at the capacities, performance specs, and pricing of the current Hyundai SUV lineup. After you've learned more about the Hyundai Tucson vs. Palisade and other noteworthy comparisons, book your test drive at our local Hyundai dealer.

Hyundai SUV Pricing

If you are trying to decide on the best new full-size SUV for your family, let's first look at the current Hyundai SUV models. When comparing the new Hyundai SUVs for sale, you immediately notice there are Hyundai compact SUVs and Hyundai full-size SUVs. The biggest difference between the two classifications is the number of seats. If you need seating for five, take a look at the Hyundai Tucson and Hyundai Santa Fe. Drivers who want a new three-row SUV with seating for up to eight passengers shouldn’t miss out on the new Hyundai Palisade.

The 2022 Hyundai Tucson is a modern compact SUV that offers an optional AWD, produces up to 187 horsepower, and boasts a $24,950 starting MSRP.¹ The 2021 Santa Fe is also a five-passenger SUV with optional AWD but produces a beefier 281 horsepower and has a $27,000 starting MSRP.¹ Drivers looking for a Hyundai full-size SUV with seating for seven or eight will be glad to know the new Hyundai Palisade also gives you an optional AWD and up to 291 horsepower for a $32,675 starting MSRP.¹

Hyundai Hybrid & Electric SUVs

When looking at the new Hyundai SUV lineup, one quickly notices there are hybrid and electric SUVs for sale. The 2021 Tucson Hybrid offers standard AWD, a combined 226 horsepower, and up to an EPA-estimated 38 MPG² on the highway. The 2021 Santa Fe Hybrid produces similar numbers and offers three available trims to select from as well as the performance of a 1.6L turbocharged hybrid engine. When you want to maximize your fun and your efficiency, slide into one of our new hybrid SUVs for sale.

If you are interested in an electric option, ask our sales team about the 2021 and 2022 Kona Electric SUV. This new electric SUV delivers an EPA-estimated range of 258 miles³ and up to $7,500 in available federal tax credits.⁴ When you arrive for a test drive, our associates can tour you through the Kona Electric SEL, Limited, and Ultimate trim models to help you find the best electric SUV for your needs.

Hyundai SUV Sizes

The main difference between the Hyundai crossover models and an SUV is size. Let's look at how the new Hyundai SUV models compare in terms of sizing to help you find a Hyundai full-size SUV that matches your needs. The Tucson starts the lineup and is the smallest of the new Hyundai SUVs for sale. It gives you up to 61.9 cubic feet of cargo capacity when the seats are down and 102.2 cubic feet of total passenger volume. If you need a fuller full-size SUV, the Hyundai Santa Fe is next in line and gives up to 72.1 cubic feet of cargo capacity and 111.5 cubic feet of passenger volume.

The biggest Hyundai SUV is the eight-passenger Palisade that provides up to 102.4 cubic feet of cargo capacity and an impressive 155.3 cubic feet of total passenger area. The best way to determine how you and your team are going to fit into any of these new SUVs for sale is to stop by our dealership and try the Hyundai SUV lineup on for size. Take a test drive in each of these Hyundai SUV models and see how they fit you and your family. When you're ready to make your purchase, our finance team can tell you about Hyundai Palisade lease specials and offers.

Hyundai SUV Towing

If you have weekend toys, watercraft, or other vehicles to haul, then you care about the towing capacity of the new Hyundai SUV lineup. The max towing capacity of the Hyundai SUVs starts at 2,000 pounds in the Hyundai Tucson when properly equipped and increases to an available 5,000 pounds of max trailering in the Hyundai Palisade when equipped with trailer brakes.
