Hyundai Palisade Hybrid Smart 8-Seater 2026 Model Fuel Average and Consumption
The Hyundai Palisade Hybrid Smart 8-Seater fuel average in Pakistan is 10.5 km/l in the city and 13 km/l on the highway. Combined, that is about 11.5 km/l. On its 72-litre tank that is roughly 756 km of city driving between fills.
These are projected figures, not a Kia claim and not a Pakistani measurement — see where they come from below.

Where these figures come from:
Pakistan has no mandatory fuel-economy test and the maker publishes no local figure, so this is projected from owner-reported figures already held on this site for the same hybrid powertrain in Pakistani conditions, rather than from a laboratory result me

Pakistan has no mandatory fuel-economy testing, so treat this as a guide, not a certified figure.
The Hyundai Palisade mileage is 8.2 to 14.2 kmpl in Pakistan, depending on driving style, AC use, and speed.
Combined average is 11.5 kmpl.
The most complete car Hyundai sells in Pakistan and the one where nothing has been held back: eight airbags, Euro 6, 329 hp combined, all-wheel drive, terrain modes, three-zone climate, a full-size alloy spare and the whole driver-assistance suite on both variants. At PKR 226.25 lacs it is not cheap, but it is not pretending to be, and the step to the Calligraphy at PKR 240.75 lacs is a straightforward trim decision - 21-inch wheels, Nappa leather, relaxation seats, seven seats instead of eight - rather than a safety one. Note the seat count runs the other way to expectation: the cheaper Smart carries eight, the dearer Calligraphy seven, because the Calligraphy's second row is captain chairs.

The good & the bad
The good
▲Eight airbags on both variants - the highest count of any Hyundai sold in Pakistan, including centre and knee airbags
▲329 hp and 460 Nm combined from a 2.5 turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive and Snow, Mud and Sand terrain modes
▲Euro 6 emissions, against Euro 2 on Hyundai's own entry Elantra
▲The complete driver-assistance suite on both: forward collision-avoidance, lane following, lane keeping, blind-spot collision-avoidance and smart cruise control with stop and go
▲Three-zone automatic climate control, a dual sunroof, BOSE audio and heated and ventilated seats as standard
▲A genuine 2,970 mm wheelbase with 2,455 litres of load space behind the first row
▲A full-size alloy spare wheel, which several cheaper SUVs in this market do not offer
▲The Calligraphy's Nappa leather, relaxation seats and welcome and escort lights
The bad
▼At PKR 226.25 lacs it is the most expensive Hyundai sold in Pakistan by a wide margin
▼The Calligraphy costs PKR 14.50 lacs more and carries one fewer seat than the Smart
▼21-inch wheels on the Calligraphy are vulnerable on poor road surfaces and expensive to replace
▼5,060 mm long and 1,980 mm wide is a great deal of vehicle for Pakistani urban parking
▼187 mm of ground clearance is modest for a vehicle marketed with terrain modes
▼A 2.5-litre turbo hybrid in a 2,145-2,282 kg vehicle is not economical - owners record about 10.5 km/l in town
▼No independent crash rating exists for the vehicle sold here

Key points
Two versions: Smart 8-seater at PKR 2,26,25,000 and Calligraphy 7-seater at PKR 2,40,75,000.
The cheaper Smart has MORE seats - eight against the Calligraphy's seven captain-chair layout.
Smartstream 2.5 Turbo hybrid: 258 hp engine plus a 54 kW motor for 329 hp and 460 Nm combined.
Eight airbags - the most of any Hyundai sold in Pakistan - on both variants.
Emission standard Euro 6, where the Elantra 1.6 Special Edition is Euro 2.
All-wheel drive with Snow, Mud and Sand terrain modes on both.
5,060-5,065 mm long on a 2,970 mm wheelbase, with 187 mm of clearance and a 72-litre tank.
Load space 540 litres behind the third row, 1,310 behind the second, 2,455 behind the first.
Full-size alloy spare on both. 20-inch alloys on the Smart, 21-inch on the Calligraphy.
Eight airbags on both variants - the highest count of any Hyundai sold in Pakistan.
Hyundai Smartsense, the company's driver-assistance package, is fitted to both: forward collision-avoidance assist, forward cross-traffic safety, forward and side safety, lane following assist, lane keeping assist, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist and smart cruise control with stop and go.
Also on both: hill-start assist control, downhill brake control, electronic stability control, an immobiliser and burglar alarm, ISOFIX child restraint anchors, a blind-spot view monitor and safe exit warning.
The emission standard is Euro 6, which is worth noting against the Euro 2 that Hyundai's own Elantra 1.6 Special Edition brochure publishes.
The full-size alloy spare is a practical safety point on a vehicle of this weight - a space-saver on a 2.2-tonne SUV is a compromise the Palisade does not make.
Pakistan has no NCAP programme, so the vehicle sold here carries no independent crash rating.
