With its EPA-estimated 27 mpg combined and 400 lb.-ft. of torque, Toyota‘s Grand Highlander Hybrid MAX helps maximize adventures while bringing the fun along.
The three distinct drive modes adjust Grand Highlander Hybrid’s driving dynamics to match the driver’s mood. Sport Mode provides sharper acceleration, Eco Mode helps maximize fuel efficiency, and Normal Mode blends fuel economy with performance. And for more capability when the pavement ends, Grand Highlander Hybrid features Multi-Terrain Select or Trail Mode on all-wheel-drive models. Drivers can choose between four modes (Mud & Sand, Rock & Dirt, Snow, and Normal) for improved traction. When activated, the system is designed to sense slippage and regulate wheelspin — helping conquer the backroads.
Grand Highlander Hybrid features a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat that lets drivers customize their favorite driving position. On the passenger side, the standard second-row captain’s chairs get first-class treatment with available Ultrasuede and leather-trimmed seats, or seating can be maximized with the available bench seating to accommodate up to eight. Black and bronze-colored accents, along with geometric patterns inside Grand Highlander Hybrid MAX, are featured throughout and help elevate the driving experience.
Grand Highlander Hybrid’s all-new design features a modern look that’s inviting from every angle, no matter what’s going on outside. Its larger silhouette is defined by sharp lines and bold surfaces — for a presence that’s unmistakable. The fitment of Grand Highlander Hybrid’s wheels matches perfectly with its fender flares to give off a vibe that it’s ready to go. Highlighting its wide stance, these design features will turn heads wherever it goes.
The available driver-assistance feature helps ease the burden of the stressful stop-and-go of a traffic jam by providing control of the vehicle steering, braking and acceleration at speeds under 25 mph. This system is designed for limited-access roadways, and, with the driver monitor camera confirming the driver’s eyes are on the road, hands-free operation is possible. Traffic Jam Assist requires an active Drive Connect trial or subscription and is 4G network dependent.
The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection is designed to help detect a vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist or motorcyclist and provide an audio/visual forward-collision warning under certain circumstances. If the driver doesn’t react, the system is designed to provide automatic emergency braking.
Designed to enhance every moment behind the wheel, Grand Highlander Hybrid’s 12.3-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen provides access to a Drive Connect trial or subscription that includes Cloud Navigation and Destination Assist, while Intelligent Assistant heightens the driver’s interactions through sight, touch and even voice recognition that lets the driver activate the system with a phrase like, “Hey, Toyota.”
