Hyundai Palisade Hybrid at Patrick Hyundai
For the first time ever, Hyundai's flagship 3-row SUV comes as a hybrid — and it doesn't just sip less fuel, it out-powers the V6. The 2026 Palisade Hybrid pairs a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine with two electric motors for a combined 329 horsepower, more than the standard Palisade's 287-hp V6, while reaching an EPA-estimated 34 MPG combined and a targeted 619-mile driving range on a single tank. For Schaumburg-area families who want flagship-level space and tech without a flagship-level fuel bill, this is the Palisade to see first. Visit Patrick Hyundai to compare trims, take a test drive, and check current offers on the all-new 2026 Palisade Hybrid.

Why the Palisade Hybrid Is Worth a Look
Most three-row hybrid SUVs ask you to give something up — power, towing, or interior space — to get better mileage. The Palisade Hybrid doesn't. Its 2.5-liter turbocharged engine and dual electric motors combine for 329 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque, actually 42 more horsepower than the outgoing V6, while returning up to 34 MPG combined on front-wheel-drive Blue SEL trims. Add an EPA-estimated 619-mile range and a new Stay Mode that lets you run the climate control and infotainment system for extended periods while parked, and it's a genuinely different kind of family SUV — one built for long drives up I-90 to Wisconsin or weekend trips downtown without constant stops for gas.

I had a great experience at Service at Patrick Hyundai thanks to Peter Rybacki. He was very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming. He helped me inspect and diagnose an issue with the oil filter housing on my Hyundai Palisade. He took the time to look into the problem and explain everything clearly. I truly appreciate his excellent customer service and helpful attitude. Peter is a great professional, and I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Hyundai. Thank you, Peter, for making the experience so pleasant!
As always, as expected clean, friendly and everyone is kind. My car is 10yrs old and the sales person still remembers me when I come in for service.

Joshua and the team was very helpful! Everyone was very nice. I recommend Patrick Hyundai and Joshua if you are in the market for a car!
Pleasant experience working with Patrick Hyundai. We were not able to come to terms and buy a vehicle from here, but they were respectful & quick in responding. I'd try again on the next vehicle need.
Came in for an oil change a few days ago and had Tyler as my service advisor. He was friendly and easy to work with, handled everything with care and precision.
Had to bring the vehicle in six times for the same issue. On top of that they fix something that didn't need to be fixed. It would only reimburse me half of it.
First of all, I want to thank Mani, who sold me my car over a year ago. His service was excellent, and the used car was in perfect condition. I also want to thank Larry, who handles repairs and maintenance. He always provides excellent service, and I appreciate his recommendations. This is definitely my go-to shop for car maintenance.
I told him about noise I was hearing. He explained what would be done including an update. And pointed out the 45,000 maintenance service which would cover my oil change and other things. I accepted it.
Was estimated that my parts would be there in 1-3 business days. My car was there being worked on for 4 weeks. I called weekly for an update. I was forwarded to Larry 4 times and never got a call back. I had to call and ask to talk to 'anyone other than Larry' to get an update.
The check-in person Tyler was very nice and helpful Recommend dealership all the time Great experience
Professional...always in communication with me, offered me transportation to and from my house in a timely manner.
Zero eye contact, wrong billing, lack of ownership and resolution I don't have anything else to say
