All-new Hyundai Palisade launch confirmed for December 16

KUALA LUMPUR: Hyundai Malaysia has been teasing the new Palisade for a while and now the automaker has confirmed the SUVs launch.

Earlier today, Hyundai Malaysia posted an event update on its Facebook page that stated that the brand’s flagship SUV will make its virtual launch on December 16th.

The all-new Hyundai Palisade is offered in two seating configurations - 7 and 8 seats.
