Overview
The Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride 3-row midsize crossover SUVs debuted for the 2020 model year, both manufactured by Hyundai Motor Group and sharing the same vehicle platform. As such, the two SUVs share much of their mechanical DNA, including engines, transmissions, and all-wheel-drive systems. Surprisingly, though, they have unique driving characteristics.
