Glen Toyota - What to Know About the 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander
At Glen Toyota, we are excited to share why the 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander is quickly becoming a favorite for drivers who want more space, more comfort, and more confidence from an SUV. This three-row standout blends family-ready practicality with premium touches and smart technology that simplifies every drive. From daily commuting to weekend getaways, the Grand Highlander is engineered to make life easier and more enjoyable for everyone on board.
If your checklist includes a true adult-friendly third row, flexible cargo room, and advanced driver assistance, the Grand Highlander delivers. Seating for up to eight means group outings are no problem, and thoughtful conveniences—like strategic storage cubbies and 13 cup/bottle holders—keep the cabin neat and passengers happy. When it is time to haul gear, the fold-flat second and third rows unlock expansive cargo capacity, and the hands-free power liftgate makes loading simple when your hands are full.
- Seating and space: Room for up to eight, an adult-friendly third row with 33.5 inches of leg room, and clever storage solutions throughout the cabin.
- Powertrains: Gas, Hybrid, or Hybrid MAX options give you the freedom to prioritize efficiency, power, or a confident balance of both, with available all-wheel drive.
- Towing and capability: Up to 5,000 pounds of towing capacity helps with small trailers, weekend toys, or home projects when equipped and properly set up.
- Comfort and convenience: Available heated and ventilated front and second-row seats, three-zone automatic climate control, and a hands-free power liftgate support every season.
- Connected tech: An available 12.3-inch multimedia system, Digital Rearview Mirror, Panoramic View Monitor, and features like Traffic Jam Assist help keep you informed and in control.
Design matters—especially when you want an SUV that looks as good as it works. The Grand Highlander’s modern exterior balances a confident stance with clean lines, while available 20-inch alloy wheels enhance both presence and performance. Inside, you will find premium materials, intuitive controls, and quiet-road refinement that elevates everyday driving. For a bold, blacked-out statement, the Hybrid Nightshade appearance brings distinctive details from bumper trim to wheels.
- Start with your priorities: Decide if your focus is maximum efficiency, extra power for highway merging and mountain drives, or a blend of both—then compare Gas, Hybrid, and Hybrid MAX.
- Right-size your seating: Choose between a bench or captain’s chairs in the second row based on whether you value an extra seat or an easier pass-through to the third row.
- Match your tech needs: Consider available features like the Panoramic View Monitor for easier parking, a Digital Rearview Mirror for improved visibility, and connected services for navigation and convenience.
- Plan for cargo and towing: If road trips, sports gear, or light towing are part of your routine, look for configurations that optimize capacity and capability.
