While every Grand Highlander Hybrid features outstanding hybrid efficiency and a large 17.17-gallon fuel tank, the estimated fuel economy varies for grades with different powertrains. The Hybrid XLE with front-wheel drive achieves an EPA-estimated 36 MPG combined efficiency, giving it a range of approximately 618 miles per tank of gasoline. All-wheel drive Hybrid XLE and Hybrid Limited models average 34 MPG combined, resulting in a range of about 583 miles.
Hybrid MAX Limited and Hybrid MAX Platinum models come standard with Full-Time Electronic All-Wheel Drive and a 2.4-liter turbo Hybrid MAX engine. With their 27 MPG EPA-estimated combined efficiency, these models can travel about 463 miles between fill-ups. The exact range that you get from your Grand Highlander Hybrid will depend on your driving style and whether you’re doing more highway driving, city driving, or off-road exploring.
Performance and Efficiency
The Grand Highlander Hybrid achieves its impressive efficiency and range with Toyota’s hybrid technology, which is the result of decades of hybrid engineering experience. Hybrid XLE and Hybrid Limited grades have a 2.5-liter hybrid engine under their hoods, which produces a combined 245 horsepower and 177 lb.-ft. of torque with 3,500 lbs. of towing capacity. An electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission further enhances this engine’s efficiency by providing power when it’s needed and minimizing fuel consumption when it’s not.
With the Hybrid MAX Limited and Hybrid MAX Platinum grades, a turbocharged hybrid system delivers a combined 362 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque. These models can tow up to 5,000 lbs. and are paired to a Direct Shift 6-Speed Automatic Transmission. Every Grand Highlander Hybrid comes with Drive Mode Select, which gives drivers more control over their vehicle’s efficiency and responsiveness. Choose Eco Mode to prioritize efficiency or Sport Mode to get a quicker throttle response.
Comfort for up to Eight
The Grand Highlander Hybrid doesn’t just give you the fuel economy to travel further; it also keeps up to eight passengers comfortable for longer. Its cabin features heated, power-adjustable front seats, second-row retractable window sunshades, and an adult-friendly third row with 33.5 inches of legroom. Throughout the cabin, you’ll find 13 cup and bottle holders and seven USB-C ports to keep everyone hydrated and entertained, so you can reach your destination with fewer pit stops.
