Hyundai is planning a fourth SUV for 2020 and we now know they will be calling it the Palisade. Think of the 2020 Hyundai Palisade as a replacement to the Veracruz, an SUV that sat atop the Hyundai SUV lineup from 2007 to 2012.
According to Hyundai, the Palisade will be quite luxurious and will feature seating for 8 passengers and high-end materials in the cabin. Cargo space will be optimized and the latest convenience and safety tech will be offered.
The Hyundai press release was full of explanations of what the Pacific Palisades are the architects that designed the homes found there, but very few details about the actual SUV were given.
The 2020 Hyundai Palisade will be introduced at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 28th, so stay tuned.
