2026 Toyota Grand Highlander LIMITED

Description

Refinements for the 2026 model year make this New 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander LIMITED AWD stand out as a highly advanced three-row SUV, blending family-ready space with a remarkable level of connected technology. Finished in distinctive 01L6 Storm Cloud paint over an upscale leather-appointed cabin, it delivers a premium feel from the first glance to every mile ahead, while its ultra-low mileage of just 3 kilometers keeps it essentially showroom fresh. Power comes from a 2.4L I-4 port/direct injection DOHC intercooled turbo engine producing 265 horsepower, paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. Drive Mode Select and Selectable Terrain Modes allow you to tailor performance to conditions, while Automatic full-time AWD and Downhill Assist Control (DAC) add confidence on wet pavement, gravel, or steep descents.

All-speed ABS, Four channel ABS brakes, Electronic stability control, and Trailer sway control work together to help keep the Grand Highlander composed and secure. The LIMITED cabin is configured for comfort and flexibility with second-row captains’ chairs and a third-row split-bench seat. Heated and ventilated front bucket seats with 8-way power adjustment for both driver and front passenger, driver 2-way power lumbar, and memory settings for the door mirrors enhance long-trip comfort and convenience. Heated second-row seats, manual reclining and fore/aft adjustment, and a 60/40 folding, manual fold-into-floor third row create adaptable passenger and cargo space. Leather front and rear seat upholstery is complemented by leatherette and simulated wood trim, a cloth headliner with full coverage, and carpeted floor mats for all three rows. At the heart of the interior is a 12.3-inch primary touchscreen display with the Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen interface.

This system is designed around intuitive control and high-speed responsiveness, and it anchors the Grand Highlander’s extensive connectivity. Wireless Apple CarPlay is a focal point: it seamlessly mirrors your iPhone interface onto the central screen without cords, enabling access to your compatible apps, messages, maps, and playlists with minimal distraction. Integrated Siri support and Toyota Assistant voice-activated audio and climate functions allow you to keep your hands on the wheel, using natural voice commands for navigation, calls, or entertainment. The experience is elevated by a JBL audio system with 11 speakers, a powerful 1200W amplifier, and Clari-Fi digital signal processing, delivering rich, clear sound tailored to the cabin. Android Auto is equally well integrated, providing a familiar, Google-centric environment for compatible Android smartphones.

Once connected, your preferred navigation apps, podcasts, communications, and music services are presented in a clean, driver-focused layout on the 12.3-inch display. Google Assistant compatibility lets you issue voice commands for route guidance, message dictation, or media selection, turning the Grand Highlander into an extension of your digital life. Smart device wireless mirroring and front wireless smart device charging keep the cabin cable-free, while 7 USB ports and an interior 120V AC power outlet ensure every row has easy access to power. Advanced navigation is provided by Drive Connect Cloud Navigation with a 3-year trial, delivering real-time traffic and weather, along with Drive Connect Destination Assist (3-year trial) for turn-by-turn guidance with live-agent support. Remote Connect with 3-year trial and the Toyota App enable features like smart device remote start and Remote Connect Digital Key (3-year trial), allowing your compatible phone to function as a key for proximity door locking and unlocking. Comfort is bolstered by Automatic climate control with dual-zone front settings and a dedicated rear climate control system with separate controls, plus under-seat and headliner/pillar ducts for more even airflow.

A heated leather steering wheel, ambient interior lighting, and a panoramic glass sunroof with express open/close operation enhance the upscale driving experience. Toyota Safety Sense™ technologies form a comprehensive safety suite. Features include Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian (Daytime & Low-Light) and Bicycle (Daytime) Detection, Lane Departure Alert (LDA) w/Steering Assist and Road Edge Detection, Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), Curve Speed Management, Road Sign Assist (RSA), Vehicle Sway Warning, Emergency Steering Assist, and Proactive Driving Assist (PDA) – Deceleration Assist. Blind Spot Monitor (BSM), Rear Cross Traffic Brake (RCTB), Safe Exit Assist (SEA), Emergency Driving Stop System, rear camera with washer, Panoramic View Monitor, and front and rear parking sensors further support the driver. Security and connected support are reinforced by SafetyConnect® (5-year minimum) with integrated emergency SOS, a vehicle tracker, and Service Connect with up to a 10-year trial for service interval information and vehicle health data.

An immobilizer, alarm, and Smart Key system with hands-free access and push button start finish off the protection package. On the outside, the 2026 Grand Highlander LIMITED wears body-coloured bumpers with black rub strips, black bodyside cladding, a black grille, chrome side window trim, and roof rails. LED low and high beam projector headlights with Automatic High Beam, LED daytime running lights, LED fog lamps, and LED brake lights ensure a modern lighting signature. 20 x 7.5-inch silver aluminum wheels wrapped in P255/55VR20 all-season tires complete the confident stance.
