Palisade years and hitch shopping

Hyundai’s three-row Palisade shares a lot of towing DNA with Kia’s Telluride, yet the Class 3 we stock is its own SKU. CURT 13427 covers the published lander years with a concealed main body and a two-inch receiver. Confirm your owner’s manual tow rating and any factory tow-package notes before you order.

Years What we usually stock
2020–2025 Class 3: CURT 13427. Rated up to 5,000 lb GTW and 750 lb tongue weight on the hitch card — still limited by Hyundai’s rating. Wiring example: CURT 56420 for listed early Palisade years on the card.
Wiring note CURT 56420 is a 4-flat custom harness that lists 2020–2022 Palisade among Hyundai-Kia applications. Later years may need a different path — read the fitment table on the product page or contact us.
2026-and-newer Dedicated hitch year pages are not published yet. Use the trailer hitches collection and reach out if you need help matching a late Palisade.

Never exceed the vehicle maker’s tow rating for your trim, drivetrain, and tow package. A hitch rating is not permission to tow heavier than the SUV was designed for.

Canada checklist

  • Believe Hyundai’s tow rating for your trim and tow package — it beats any hitch brochure.
  • Budget time for bumper trim if the install sheet calls for it — rush cuts look permanent.
  • Plan for salt season — rinse the open-back receiver and protect the wiring plug when you can.
  • Sister platform, different SKU — Telluride owners shop CURT 13420; Palisade owners shop CURT 13427.
