What the weight leaves for towing
With a With factory tow prep configuration, the 2027 Palisade is rated to pull 5,000 lbs — 1.2 times the 4,314 lbs the heaviest recorded truck weighs by itself, and 1.2 times the 4,145 lbs of the lightest.
That rating belongs to the With factory tow prep build, not to every truck on this page: a 4dr SUV AWD starts 170 lbs deeper into the combined rating than a 4dr SUV FWD before a trailer is coupled.
The towing figure on file is for 2027; the weights above are 2025 records.
| Maximum trailer rating | 5,000 lbs | With factory tow prep |
| Heaviest recorded truck | 4,314 lbs | 4dr SUV AWD |
| Lightest recorded truck | 4,145 lbs | 4dr SUV FWD |
Front and rear axle loads
At 57/43, the 4,145 lbs puts about 2,362 lbs on the front axle and 1,783 lbs on the rear — 579 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.
Against the rest of the small sport utility vehicle 4wd class
Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the Palisade is 65 of 98 in Small Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, 197 lbs above the 3,948 lbs median and lighter than 33 of its peers.
What four-wheel drive costs in weight
Every body style recorded in both drive layouts gains exactly 170 lbs moving from two-wheel to four-wheel drive — about 4.1% of the two-wheel-drive figure.
| 4dr SUV FWD | +170 lbs | 4,145 lbs → 4,314 lbs |
Curb weight already includes a full tank
The published 18.8-gallon tank holds about 115 lbs of gasoline at 6.1 lb per gallon, and curb weight is measured with it full. Run it to empty and the 4dr SUV AWD is effectively a 4,199 lbs vehicle — 2.7% of the figure quoted above is fuel you will burn off.
Unchanged since 2020
All 6 model years from 2020 to 2025 are filed at 4,314 lbs, so the model year on a listing does not change the figure.

Questions these figures answer
How much does a 2025 Hyundai Palisade weigh?
Between 4,145 lbs (4dr SUV FWD) and 4,314 lbs (4dr SUV AWD), depending on the configuration.
Does the Palisade's curb weight count against its tow rating?
Yes. The 5,000 lbs maximum applies to the With factory tow prep configuration, and the truck's own 4,145 lbs–4,314 lbs is already inside the combined weight the rating assumes. Heavier cab and drivetrain choices eat into what is left.
How much more does a 4x4 Palisade weigh?
170 lbs more than the same body style in two-wheel drive.
