EXPERT REVIEW · THREE-ROW SUV

2026 Toyota Grand Highlander review

Toyota Grand Highlander: the family hauler that doesn't feel like one. Illustrative review

8.0/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander is a strong contender in its class. Easy to see out of and park; standard driver-assist suite. Third row (where offered) is for kids and price climbs fast with options, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $42,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

★★★★☆Nadia G. · Austin, TX · 28 months owned

Second one we've owned

The cargo room is the standout. My only gripe is the touchscreen climate controls, which I knew going in.

★★★★☆Lillian G. · Corpus Christi, TX · 24 months owned

Better than the test drive suggested

We cross-shopped three others and this won on cargo room. the touchscreen climate controls is the trade-off.

★★★★☆Sofia C. · Columbus, OH · 26 months owned

Second one we've owned

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the cargo room still impresses passengers.
