2023 Hyundai Palisade exterior dimensions
2023 Hyundai Palisade is substantially larger than the average crossover. At 499.6cm long, its around 47cm, or 10%, beyond the class norm, while its 197.6cm body is approximately 13cm, or 7%, wider. These are differences likely to be noticed when choosing a parking space or checking whether it will fit in a garage. It is also around 12cm taller than average at 175cm, and its 290.1cm wheelbase is roughly 18cm longer. Its length and width create a 9.9m² footprint, approximately 1.5m², or 18%, larger than the typical crossover.

DriveSize footprint
DriveSize footprint compares this car's footprint with the average footprint for the same class.
A positive percentage means a larger footprint and a negative percentage means a smaller footprint. About average means the rounded difference is 0%.

Fast facts
Fast facts
Carries up to eight people
Most crossovers seat five, but the Palisade can accommodate up to eight people, making its larger exterior particularly useful for bigger families or anyone who regularly travels with more passengers.
Maximum SAE cargo space is 31% above average
With the rear seating folded, capacity reaches 2,447 litres, around 576 litres more than the crossover norm, giving larger loads considerably more room.
Its footprint is 18% larger than average
The Palisade occupies approximately 1.5m² more ground space than the typical crossover, so garages and parking spaces need to accommodate its extra length and width.
Only one regional space provides comfortable access
The Palisade physically fits seven of the eight standard spaces used by DriveSize, but only the USA/Canada result leaves a comfortable amount of room around it.

Cargo space & efficiency
2023 Hyundai Palisade cargo capacity and space efficiency
With all seats available or in use, the Palisade provides 510 litres of published SAE cargo capacity. That is around 229 litres, or 31%, below the crossover average, so carrying eight people leaves a smaller-than-average amount of space for everyday bags. With the rear seating folded for maximum capacity, the figure rises to 2,447 litres. This is approximately 576 litres, or 31%, above average, making its maximum carrying space a much stronger result than its seats-up boot. Combining its seats-up and maximum cargo figures, the Palisade provides about 120 litres per square metre of ground space under SAE. That is roughly 8% below the crossover average, so its large exterior delivers generous outright maximum capacity rather than above-average cargo space for each square metre it occupies.

Parking
Will the 2023 Hyundai Palisade fit in a standard parking space?
The Palisade physically fits seven of the eight standard regional parking spaces used by DriveSize. Its extra length prevents a fit in the United Kingdom space, while the European Union, China, India, Japan, Australia and Middle East results are all tight. Only the USA/Canada space provides a comfortable amount of surrounding room. In the other regions, its greater-than-average length and width are likely to make positioning the car and getting in or out less straightforward.
DriveSize parking fit score
DriveSize compares the car's width and length with typical parking-space sizes by region.
Vehicle dimensions are rounded up and available side or length clearance is rounded down.
Side clearance is based on body width where available; real spaces can vary because of mirrors, walls, pillars, kerbs, bay markings, and nearby cars.
For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 38.5 cm per side, and length clearance is 25 cm at each end.

Usability
2023 Hyundai Palisade usability & manoeuvrability
The Palisade has an 11.8m turning circle, around 0.6m, or 5%, wider than the crossover average. Combined with a wheelbase roughly 18cm longer than usual, it will need more room than most crossovers when turning around or manoeuvring in confined spaces. At 1,892kg, it is approximately 260kg, or 16%, heavier than average. Its 20.1cm ground clearance is around 2cm, or 11%, above the crossover norm, giving the underside some extra breathing room over rough roads or sharp changes in road angle.

DriveSize overview: 2023 Hyundai Palisade
Looking at its dimensions and capacities, the Hyundai Palisade may suit drivers who need seating for up to eight and want considerably more maximum cargo room than the average crossover. With the rear seating folded, its 2,447-litre SAE capacity is around 31% above the class norm.
That space comes with a substantially larger exterior. Its footprint is 18% above average, only one regional parking space provides comfortable access and its seats-up cargo figure is 31% below the crossover norm. It is therefore better matched to drivers who will make regular use of its extra seats or maximum carrying capacity than those prioritising easy parking.
Another eight-seat crossover with a similar footprint and maximum cargo capacity is the 2020 Toyota Highlander.
