Can't go wrong stuffing more luxury into these things.  I have no idea what the sales numbers are like for the Palisade, but I see them bloody well EVERYWHERE, so I suspect they are doing well.  Though I prefer the Telluride, I feel like I see one of those for every 10 Palisades that roll by.  Also, every Palisade is grey - must be a law or something.  ;D

Interesting that you see them often. I bet I haven't seem more than 5 Palisades or Tellurides combined.

I see tons around here and I'm sure this will sell well. I'm a fan of the Telluride as well, this thing, especially the wheels, doesn't look nearly as good IMO.
Lighten up Francis.....

If a made a point of looking, I'd probably see 5 Palisades in a day if I were really out and about.  And maybe 1 Telluride, maybe none.

If you live in a small community without a nearby Hyundai or Kia dealership, you're unlikely to see any.

I saw them daily in Edmonton and near daily in Kelowna.

Plenty of Hyundai and Kia dealers in Winnipeg.

I see a fair amount of the Hyundai. I think they look pretty cheap/chintzy in real life. The KIA to me looks much richer.

Agreed.

I saw somewhere an "overland" version of the KIA as a design exercise...I think that looks even better.

There was a Hyundai Palisade customer shuttle broken down on the side of the highway -- ouch.

Don't see many of either here (we have both k/h stores) but I do see more Tellurides. I really disliked the Telluride at first but the styling has really grown on me. I also like the Palisade in the upper trims. Think the name "calligraphy" is dumb, seems like they're copying Range Rovers Autobiography.

The Telluride is distinctive and easier to spot on the street. The Pallisade could be mistaken for a Santa Fe from the front so it takes more effort to spot them.
