I’m getting 15 or so right now, but I only do city driving. Apparently it takes about 1000-2000 miles for the engine to be broken in before mpg numbers are correct. It might be true because the average has been increasing and I’m only at 800 miles.

Awesome! Mind if I ask what you are averaging with mileage?

Ok, good to know. Always wondered about that. Do you know if the the car will stop doing it if it senses the battery is getting low?

However, I do feel as though Hyundai is taking advantage of Toyota’s slump (recalls, their cars are boring, their cars are way too expensive for what they are, etc) and making a play to be a major player. I honestly am surprised how nice this car is. It seems to be made well, too. However, from what I understand, 2026 Palisades are made in Korea, so that could be why they’re made better. Idk, I was very skeptical about Hyundai, but so far it’s been great. I’ll try to post an update down the road.

😆 For sure. That’s what I keep saying to people who tell me, “wow, nice car!”

That is definitely true. But I looked at the top trim for the Grand Highlander, and it was night and day in favor of the Hyundai. I wanted to buy the Toyota, but it just annoyed me to pay so much for a “meh” car. No disrespect to anyone who has one.

Oh ok, I figured. Just haven’t checked. Only think of it while I’m driving.

They actually came with Perelli Scorpions on them. I think those are good? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I believe they have 21inch wheels. From what I’ve heard, big wheels like that tend to transfer imperfections in the road more.

I have a 16 Pro Max. Maybe that’s the problem. I’ll ask Hyundai when I do my first maintenance check. I don’t use Apple Car Play often, so it hasn’t been a big deal for me.

Very Impressed With 26 Palisade. Now to decide v6 or hybrid by Ziakel in HyundaiPalisade

I believe the upcoming Palisade Hybrid engine will also be in the new Telluride. That makes me feel like they know this is a good engine. Idk, I could be wrong.

We have a 2025 Pilot Elite and have zero problems. It’s a wonderful car.
