2027 Toyota Highlander
Meet the all-new, all-electric 2027 Highlander – built to take on everyday adventures. With sleek, modern lines, three rows of comfortable seating and generous cargo space, it’s designed to carry your family, and everything that comes with them, wherever the day takes you.
Striking style, everyday versatility, and battery electric efficiency, that’s the all-new 2027 Highlander. With a stunning new look inside and out, and seating for up to seven, the latest Highlander is the all-electric Toyota built to carry the whole crew. It is also Toyota’s first three‑row battery‑electric vehicle (BEV), and its first BEV assembled in North America.
The new Highlander’s modern new look features clean lines, broad fenders, full-length LED daytime running lights, and flush door handles for an aerodynamic appeal. Inside, a tech-forward cabin with a large 14-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch driver’s display, customizable ambient lighting, and ample device charging in every row give it comfort and convenience. It will also have an available fixed glass panoramic roof that will be the largest in the Toyota lineup, adding an open, bright feeling to the cabin.
Designed to provide a comfortable space for the whole crew, the 2027 Highlander offers a spacious interior with three-row seating for up to seven when equipped with an available bench seat. Its cabin has an elevated feel, with standard SofTex®-trimmed seating, soft-touch materials on the dash and doors, and customizable interior lighting to set the mood. Heated front seats come standard, with ventilated front seats and heated second row seats available. When extra space is required, the third row can fold flat for a rear cargo area with 1,290 litres of storage.
At the forefront of technology, the new Highlander can also serve as a mobile power source with vehicle-to-load (V2L) technology, a first for a Toyota model sold in the North America. This technology can potentially power appliances, like at a tailgate party, or serve as a power backup at home in case of an outage.
