2025 Hyundai Palisade vs Ford Explorer in Brandon, MB

The 2025 Hyundai Palisade is designed to get you, your family, and all your gear to the next destination on your itinerary. Luxurious, versatile, and capable, the Palisade is the perfect family SUV. But how does it compare with other family-focused SUVs on the market? Join the team here at Fowler Hyundai as we pit our Palisade against the Ford Explorer, to see which one comes out on top.
Luxury Interior
First and foremost, Hyundai prides itself on the comfort of its vehicles. The Ford Explorer might be “Built Ford Tough,” but the entry level model is relatively utilitarian compared to the Palisade’s ergonomic interior design, standard 8-way power driver’s seat, and standard heated steering wheel. The Explorer also has a more cramped third row in comparison to the Palisade. You and your family will enjoy a much more refined and comfortable ride in the Hyundai.
Versatile Space
Both the 2025 Hyundai Palisade and the Ford Explorer offer you a flexible interior, easily reconfigurable depending on how much stuff you need to load in, but the Palisade has the edge in overall cargo volume. It can pack in a whopping 2,447 L of cargo behind the first row, compared to the Explorer’s 2,431 L. Even just the basic cargo space of the Palisade is a full 48 L larger than the Explorer’s. If you regularly need to move as much luggage, groceries, or equipment as you do people, the Hyundai is the better choice.
Safety Features
You don’t just want a comfortable ride, you want a safe one. While the Ford Explorer is a safety conscious SUV, the 2025 Hyundai Palisade offers more standard features. This includes rear side air bags for improved protection for your passengers, but also standard cross-traffic alert, and integrated turn signals on the mirrors. You can rely on the Palisade more when it comes to watching your back, and helping in an emergency.
