Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Palisade than in the Toyota 4Runner. The Hyundai Palisade will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota 4Runner.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Hyundai Palisade as you will with the Toyota 4Runner, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Whether you pick the Hyundai Palisade or the Toyota 4Runner, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
Since the Hyundai Palisade is much wider than the Toyota 4Runner, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Hyundai Palisade, which is slightly longer than the Toyota 4Runner.

Handling
The Hyundai Palisade has a larger turning radius than the Toyota 4Runner, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
If you've got something you need to pull, the Hyundai Palisade will do just as well as the Toyota 4Runner, since they have about the same towing capacity. The Hyundai Palisade has a little more horsepower than the Toyota 4Runner.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Hyundai Palisade doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Toyota 4Runner.

Utility
The Hyundai Palisade offers greater seating capacity than the Toyota 4Runner, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Hyundai Palisade as you will in the Toyota 4Runner.
