An SEL badge does not tell the whole story on this 2021 Hyundai Palisade. This one was ordered with BOTH the Premium Package and Convenience Package, taking the original sticker to $42,495 and adding equipment many used three-row SUV shoppers expect from a higher trim. At 88,597 miles, it also comes to Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel as a CARFAX one-owner Florida personal vehicle with 24 reported service records and Ford Blue Advantage Blue Certified status.

The Light Beige leather cabin is built around family use. Second-row captain's chairs create an easier path to the third row, and that third row power folds, unfolds and reclines when you need to switch between passengers and cargo. The driver gets memory, both front seats are power adjustable, the second row is heated, and the steering wheel is heated. Dual-zone front climate control works with separate second-row automatic HVAC, while rear side-window sunshades help with Florida heat.

A 10.25-inch touchscreen brings factory navigation and Highway Drive Assist I, while Apple CarPlay and Android Auto handle your phone. Wireless charging, USB outlets across all three rows and a 115-volt outlet keep a full cabin powered. Driver Talk lets the front row communicate with passengers farther back, and remote start, proximity key access and push-button start make everyday use easier around Wesley Chapel and New Tampa.

Moonlight Cloud gives the exterior a deep dark-blue finish, and the Convenience Package upgrades the look with 20-inch split five-spoke alloy wheels. It also adds a hands-free smart liftgate, front parking sensors, LED taillights and auto-leveling rear suspension. LED headlamps, a power sunroof, roof rails and privacy glass complete the upscale look.

Hyundai's 3.8L GDI V6 makes 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque through an 8-speed automatic. This front-wheel-drive configuration is a sensible match for Tampa Bay driving, with original EPA estimates of 19 MPG city, 26 highway and 22 combined. The factory trailering package adds pre-wiring, a transmission cooler and sway control for additional flexibility with a compatible trailer.

Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Lane Following Assist, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist and Safe Exit Assist give this 2021 SUV a strong driver-assistance package. Front and rear parking sensors help make its three-row size easier to manage.

The history adds confidence. CARFAX reports one personal-use Florida owner and 24 service-history records, with repeated oil changes, tire rotations and maintenance documented over the years. The most recent reported oil and filter change was completed in July 2026.

Ford Blue Advantage Blue Certified adds another layer of confidence. This Palisade passed a 139-point inspection and comes with a Ford-backed 90-day/4,000-mile Comprehensive Limited Warranty, 90 days of 24/7 Roadside Assistance and 11,000 FordPass Rewards Points for eligible buyers. Parks Plus adds ownership protection through benefits such as rain-repellent treatment, cabin sanitizer with antimicrobial protection and anti-theft VIN etching.

For a Wesley Chapel, Zephyrhills, Dade City, Land O Lakes, Lutz or Tampa family trying to maximize three-row SUV for the money, this one puts the expensive equipment where it matters: leather, captain's chairs, heated second row, navigation, Highway Drive Assist, power third row, 20-inch wheels and a hands-free liftgate.

It says SEL on the tailgate. The equipment tells a much better story.
