The Toyota Grand Highlander is a mid-size crossover SUV[4] with three-row seating produced by Toyota since 2023. The Grand Highlander was introduced for the North American market on February 8, 2023. While sharing the nameplate and the GA-K platform with the regular Highlander, the Grand Highlander is longer, taller, and wider, and features entirely different exterior and interior styling.[6][7]

In the North American market, the Grand Highlander is positioned between the smaller Highlander and the larger Tundra-based Sequoia.[8] In the United States, it is available in three grade levels: XLE, Limited, and Platinum.[9] The Lexus equivalent is known as the Lexus TX, and is also exclusive to North America.

The Grand Highlander is built around the 2.4-liter T24A-FTS turbocharged inline-4 engine producing up to 265 horsepower (198 kW; 269 PS) and 310 pound-feet (420 N⋅m) of torque. The 2.5-liter hybrid powertrain from the XU70 Highlander Hybrid and XA50 RAV4 Hybrid is available on XLE and Limited and is advertised for a maximum of 245 hp combined. Also available is a turbocharged hybrid powertrain from the Crown Crossover, marketed as "Hybrid MAX," which pairs electric motors with the T24A-FTS.[11] Hybrid MAX is available on Limited and Platinum.

The gas and Hybrid MAX models have a 5,000 lb (2,268 kg) towing capacity, while the Hybrid models are rated to tow 3,500 lb (1,588 kg).
