2026 Toyota Grand Highlander

Grand Highlander stretches Highlander packaging for three-row buyers who want more second/third-row space. Trade-offs: gas turbo-four mpg versus Hybrid efficiency; Hybrid MAX-style rows sit between gas and standard Hybrid.

What's confirmed (EPA 2026)

  • Grand Highlander Hybrid (listed hybrid row): 36 mpg combined (37/34)
  • Grand Highlander Hybrid AWD: 34 mpg combined (36/32)
  • Gas LE/XLE / Limited FWD-class rows: 24 mpg combined (21/28)
  • Gas AWD LE/XLE: 23 mpg combined (21/27)
  • Gas AWD Limited/Platinum: 22 mpg combined (20/26)
  • An additional ~27 mpg combined row appears in the table set (often Hybrid MAX–class) — match the exact trim string on fueleconomy.gov

Practical notes

Standard Hybrid is the efficiency headline. Cross-shop Pilot, Telluride, Palisade, CX-90, and Highlander if you do not need Grand space.
