Hyundai luxes up its largest SUV with a High Roof trim level in Korea.
The roof is raised by 9.4 inches for a more spacious, luxurious interior.
The Palisade High Roof gets a 21.4-inch screen, pop-out reading lights, and more.
For decades, luxury sedans were the default choice for those who wanted to be chauffeured while relaxing in the back seats or doing business on the go. However, high-end minivans have been gaining traction in certain parts of the world, especially in Asia. Hyundai Motor Group has taken notice of this shift in customer preferences, with some wealthy buyers switching from sedans to other body styles.
The Korean brands have been catering to this growing niche with models such as the Hyundai Staria Lounge Limousine and the Kia Carnival Hi-Limousine. These products serve as flagship versions of their respective lineups and feature a taller body, creating a more spacious and fancier interior. Unsurprisingly, there’s now even an SUV with added height, and while the roof bulge doesn’t look particularly appealing, the benefits are immediately noticeable inside.
