2026 Hyundai Palisade Safety Features
Shopping for a three-row SUV often starts with one important consideration, safety. When transporting family and friends, peace of mind comes from knowing your vehicle is equipped to help protect everyone on board. The Hyundai Palisade stands out in this category as a family-focused SUV, built from the ground up with advanced safety technologies designed to make every journey more secure.
Standard Driver-Assist Safety Features
Every Hyundai Palisade comes well-equipped with a suite of active safety features designed to support drivers in daily scenarios. These systems monitor the area around your vehicle and can help predict or prevent many common incidents. Key standard driver-assist features include:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection
- Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Lane Keeping Assist
- Driver Attention Warning
- Safe Exit Assist
These technologies work together to help maintain safe distances, alert you to hazards in your blind spots, notify you if your attention wavers, and even assist in keeping younger passengers safe when exiting the vehicle.
Available and Advanced Safety Technologies
Beyond its standard systems, the Palisade offers a range of available advanced safety technologies aimed at adding confidence in more challenging scenarios. Available features like Highway Driving Assist provide extra support on longer trips, automatically helping maintain distance and lane position in traffic. When maneuvering in or out of tight parking spaces, a Surround View Monitor offers a bird's-eye perspective to enhance visibility.
For added passenger awareness, available features can detect movement inside the vehicle after you've parked, helping ensure no small children or pets are inadvertently left behind. Optional Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist watches for obstacles and can automatically apply the brakes during slow maneuvers if needed, making parking lots less stressful.
Crash Protection and Structural Safety
Safety goes far beyond electronics, and the Palisade’s robust body structure is engineered to protect occupants in the event of a collision. Multiple strategically placed airbags—including front, side, and curtain coverage—help shield all three rows. Hyundai’s focus on crash energy management directs impact forces away from passengers, and advanced restraint systems work rapidly to minimize the risk of injury. The Palisade is engineered to meet or exceed the industry’s strictest safety standards, reassuring families that it offers strong protection where it matters most.
We recommend checking the NHTSA and IIHS websites for the most current ratings relevant to this model year. Historically, recent Palisade models have earned strong scores for crash protection and occupant safety.
