The overview

The three-row Grand Highlander is positioned above the current Highlander and designed to better compete with class leaders like the Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride. This all-new SUV offers three powertrains: a base 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that sounds raspy, a thrifty 2.5-liter hybrid, and a powerful 2.4-liter turbocharged hybrid. Unlike most competitors, there is no V6 engine. The Grand Highlander can be configured to hold seven or eight passengers. The third seat is much roomier than it is in the regular Highlander, and it has greater cargo capacity. Power is adequate, the ride is comfortable and handling is decent. It features the latest Toyota infotainment system, with a 12.3-inch screen. All versions get the Safety Sense 3.0 suite. That includes AEB with pedestrian, cyclist, and motorcyclist detection, AEB highway, BSW, and RCTW. An LE trim and a Nightshade Edition based on the Limited trim were introduced for 2025.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
