2025 Grand Highlander Model Range: From XLE to Hybrid Platinum

Toyota's 2025 Grand Highlander lineup delivers an expanded range of choices, starting at $50,860 for the well-equipped XLE model and extending to the advanced Hybrid Platinum at $65,755. This comprehensive selection includes six distinct models built around three powertrains, each offering Canadian drivers specific advantages in performance, efficiency, and versatility.


The foundation of the Grand Highlander range starts with the XLE trim, which introduces an eight-passenger configuration paired with essential premium amenities. The XLE features Toyota Multimedia displayed on a 12.3-inch screen, complemented by a 7-inch multi-information display for critical driving data. The cabin incorporates Softex upholstery, 10-way power adjustment for the driver, and an 8-way adjustable front passenger seat.


Performance Options and Powertrain Selection  


Three distinct powertrains define the Grand Highlander's capabilities. The XLE and Limited grades utilize a 2.4-litre turbocharged engine producing 265 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. Moving to the Hybrid models, the XLE and Limited variants employ Toyota's proven gasoline-electric system, generating 243 total system horsepower with a 3,500-pound towing capacity. The range-topping Hybrid Platinum showcases the Hybrid MAX system, delivering 362 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, enabling a 5,000-pound towing capacity.


Advanced Features Across the Range  


The Limited trim enhances the Grand Highlander experience with premium appointments. A JBL Premium Audio system with 11 speakers provides exceptional sound quality, while the 12.3-inch multi-information display offers enhanced vehicle data visualization. Leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear seats create year-round comfort. Additional refinements include 20-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic moonroof, and a hands-free power liftgate with kick sensor.


Hybrid Platinum: Premium Performance  


At the pinnacle of the lineup, the Hybrid Platinum combines maximum capability with luxury. Suede accents complement the leather seating surfaces, while both front and second-row seats offer heating and ventilation. The driving experience benefits from Traffic Jam Assist, a head-up display, and a digital rearview mirror. Two new exterior colours for 2025, Heavy Metal and Cement, provide additional personalization options.


Pricing Structure  


The 2025 Grand Highlander range offers clear price positioning across all models. The XLE starts at $50,860, with the Limited grade priced from $57,995. Hybrid variants begin at $54,160 for the XLE, while both seven and eight-passenger Hybrid Limited configurations are available at $61,495.
