Hyundai Palisade Earns Five-Star ANCAP Safety Rating: What Families Need to Know

If you’re searching for a large SUV that puts your family’s safety first, the Hyundai Palisade is now an even clearer standout. Recently awarded a five-star ANCAP safety rating, the Palisade has proven it’s built to protect every passenger — front to back.

At Tynan Hyundai Kirrawee, the Palisade has become one of the most popular choices for families who need space, comfort and genuine peace of mind on the road.

Clear, Simple Safety Results

ANCAP tested how well the Hyundai Palisade protects adults, children, pedestrians and cyclists, and how well its safety technology helps avoid accidents. The results are strong across the board, showing that Hyundai’s biggest SUV doesn’t just look confident — it is confident.

Here’s what stood out:

⭐ Strong adult protection

The Palisade scored very high in tests that simulate real crashes, including side impacts and pole impacts — some of the toughest safety scenarios. These results show excellent structural strength and airbag coverage throughout the cabin.

⭐ Excellent child protection

The Palisade earned full points for child protection in both frontal and side crash tests. With multiple ISOFIX and top-tether points, it’s made to accommodate families with growing children and multiple child seats.

⭐ Smart safety technology

ANCAP also praised the Palisade’s safety tech. Features like Autonomous Emergency Braking, lane-keeping assistance, speed sign recognition and blind-spot detection all help prevent accidents before they happen. The Palisade received “Good” scores for detecting pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists — a major benefit in everyday driving.

⭐ Safer for everyone on the road

ANCAP also looks at how a vehicle’s front design affects other cars in a crash. While many large vehicles lose points here, the Hyundai Palisade performed noticeably better, with only a small penalty applied. This highlights Hyundai’s thoughtful approach to safety for both its occupants and other road users.

Why Families Love the Hyundai Palisade

Safety is just one part of the story. The Palisade also offers:

• A spacious and comfortable seven- or eight-seat layout
• A premium interior with modern tech that’s simple to use
• Smooth, quiet driving around town and on the highway
• The confidence that comes from Hyundai’s reputation for reliability

It’s no surprise the Palisade has become one of Australia’s favourite family SUVs — and a top choice at Tynan Hyundai Kirrawee.
