JAKARTA - Hyundai Pelisade terbaru telah meluncur pada awal Desember di Korea Selatan dengan beberapa perubahan yang signifikan mulai dari tampilan luar hingga dalamnya.

Even though this SUV has undergone a total overhaul compared to the previous generation, Hyundai still received many orders and broke the pre-order record.

Launching from The Korean Car Blog, Saturday, December 28, the manufacturer has received 33,567 pre-orders for this model on the first day. Thus, the latest Palisade took third place in the first day pre-order on the list of vehicles under the Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) umbrella after Kia's Ioniq and The New Carnival.

What encourages consumers to order the car is the presence of a hybrid variant in the Palisade series for the first time by contributing as much as 70 percent of the total bookings.

The hybrid engine in the Palisade is claimed to have fuel consumption of up to 14 km/l or much more efficient than the pure gasoline variant with only 9 km/l.

Later, the hybrid variant will be available side by side with pure gasoline (ICE) type powered by a 2.5 liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine powered by 207 kW and 422 Nm torque.

Previously, Hyundai had removed its exterior and interior design sheaths, where the latest generation of the Palisade will have a length of 5,060 mm, a width of 1,980 mm, and a height of 1,805 mm, at a wheelbase of 2,970 mm.

In design, this one car has a more brainy proportion than before, while the front and rear lights are also new, and also trim the pillars of the typical metallic back window. Present with the choice of 18 to 21 inches of rims, this one car looks dashing and modern.

Entering the cabin, two large screens combined 12.3 inches are equipped with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, to a smart voice assistant system that makes it easier for users to control the car.
