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.

Patrick Hyundai
Was able to fit me in and repair my car issue! I appreciate his quick response!
Johnathan here at Patrick Hyundai was by FAR the kindest salesman I’ve run into. I was really back and forth about what car to get, and truthfully, didn’t end up buying a Hyundai, but it really came down to aspects of the car. He wasn’t pushy or anything, he really listened to all of my questions and outsourced if he didn’t have the answer right away for me, and he did an amazing job making the whole experience feel as stress free as possible. 10/10 am so happy with my experience here.
Gus was very polite and explained what was going on with the car. In addition the young Latina girl who help me with the car loan.

Work was finished in good time, and Larry was very nice. A recall was performed on my vehicle within good time while I was waiting for the oil change.
I had an excellent experience at Patrick Hyundai Schaumburg, thanks to my salesperson, Tristan Diaz. Tristan was knowledgeable about the Hyundai Tucson SUV I was looking for and took the time to answer all of my questions. He found the exact vehicle I wanted with the right interior, making the buying process easy and enjoyable. One of the best surprises was that the vehicle came with a step ladder for my dog to get in and out. It wasn't a feature I was looking for, but it's something I absolutely love and will use all the time. The Atlantis Blue color is stunning and gives the SUV such an elegant look. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and the outstanding customer service I received from Tristan and the team at Patrick Hyundai Schaumburg. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new vehicle! Laura I.

Professional staff, courtesy and timely. Service Manager goes out of his way to make certain things go smoothly.
My experience with Patrick Hyundai was very disappointing from start to finish. I arrived about 20 minutes before opening to use the overnight drop box, but there were no pens available to complete the drop-off form, so I had to wait until the dealership opened. When I mentioned this to my service advisor, Mike VanHoosier, he insisted there were pens in the box. I had already checked, so it felt like he was implying I wasn’t telling the truth. Instead of addressing the issue professionally, he responded, “Boy, we are not starting the morning off on the right foot.” Another inconvenience was that service opens at 7:00 AM, but the shuttle doesn’t start until 8:00 AM. Because of that, I had to pay for an Uber just to get to work on time. Communication regarding repairs was also poor. I repeatedly asked for a written estimate on the spark plug replacement, but Mike would only provide a verbal estimate of about $375. He later texted me, “The technician has to do this, I will make it work for you with a coupon if it’s more but shouldn’t.” Despite that assurance, I was charged $387.43. When I got home, I also noticed I was overcharged for the wiper blades. The estimate listed them at $56.65, but my final invoice charged $76.60, with no explanation. Overall, I found the customer service, communication, and billing to be unacceptable. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Patrick Hyundai.
