All other models comfortably seat 8 courtesy of a 2nd row bench. Large rear doors provide easy access to the 3rd row. Three-zone climate control lets everyone set their own comfort zone.

Toyota’s renowned Hybrid powertrain is standard on all Highlander Hybrid models. It includes advanced features like regenerative braking to recapture energy without having to plug it in, while delivering a robust 243 net horsepower. In short, it’s the no compromise family SUV.
The available 264-horsepower, 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine serves up an ideal blend of power and fuel efficiency. Backed by technology, like Dual Variable Valve Timing-with intelligence (Dual VVT-i) mated to an 8-speed direct shift automatic transmission – putting power and responsiveness at your fingertips, while helping to make the most of every litre.
Think of it as the ultimate multi-tasker. A DTV-AWD can send up to 50 percent of engine torque to the rear wheels, then distributes power to the wheel that needs it most – enhancing stability, responsiveness and control. When it isn’t needed, the system sends all driving force to the front wheels to improve fuel economy and deliver a smoother ride.7
With a dedicated electric motor for the rear wheels, Hybrid models adapt based on driving conditions – from 100 percent to the front wheels, to an even 50:50 split between front and rear. It all happens seamlessly and automatically to give you better traction when the going gets tough, and performance that brings a smile when accelerating and cornering.
The 2026 Highlander features Toyota Safety SenseTM 2.5+ (TSS 2.5+), Toyota’s advanced suite of active safety technologies and capabilities.8 TSS 2.5+ includes enhancements that support your awareness and decision making at intersections, and when making left hand turns9. A ‘curve speed management’ function that enhances the dynamic radar cruise control when cornering. And an emergency steering assist function that allows the Highlander to stabilize the driver’s emergency steering under certain conditions to help you avoid risk of incident or accident.
