2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update | Snow beast:
Autoblog’s long-term loan of a 2021 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy AWD — the same one that convinced me to purchase an almost identical one as a daily driver for my wife — has made its way back to my snowy, icy driveway after a run-in with hungry rodents. Unlike the Snyder Palisade, which is still rolling on the standard all-season tires, the Autoblog steed had a set of Michelin X-Ice Snow winter tires mounted.
We also used the Palisade’s hill-descent control for the first time this winter. One particularly snowy ski weekend up north, we visited friends staying in a house at the top of a steep, winding, snow-packed drive. Pressing the button to engage what the owner’s manual refers to as “Downhill Brake Control,” holds the vehicle to a slow speed for a steady descent. It worked great, turning what could have been a fraught exit into a calm cruise down the hill.
We didn’t get a set of winter tires for the Snyder Palisade this year, but after testing them on the Autoblog Palisade, our family will be making the investment before the next snow season. The Michelin X-Ice Snow tires provided a distinct advantage in two arenas: braking and cornering. The extra grip created a much higher threshold before the anti-lock brakes kicked in, making for shorter braking distances in the snow.
Furthermore, the wipers can’t be moved by hand. They’re locked in place, and the cowl blocks you from lifting them off the glass. Combined with the depth of the cowl and the height of the hood, it’s difficult to reach in with gloves to dig the snow out from below the wiper arm. I spent many more minutes than I’d have liked trying to grasp what snow and ice I could from under that damn cowl.
