Performance Specs and MPG Ratingsy
The 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid delivers a remarkable combination of power, efficiency, and smooth driving performance, making it a standout choice for drivers in Yuba City, Sacramento, Marysville, Olivehurst, and Roseville. The standard hybrid pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors, producing a combined 245 horsepower. This setup provides confident acceleration, smooth transitions, and effortless performance for daily commutes, school runs, and longer road trips.
For drivers seeking a more engaging and powerful experience, the Hybrid MAX option pairs a 2.4-liter turbocharged engine with an electric motor to generate 362 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain easily handles towing, highway merging, and steep climbs, giving the Grand Highlander Hybrid MAX the versatility to tackle both everyday driving and more demanding adventures.
Each hybrid system is tuned for a distinct driving experience. The standard hybrid features an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (CVT), delivering seamless acceleration and optimal fuel efficiency. The Hybrid MAX adds a sport-tuned six-speed automatic transmission, providing a more dynamic and responsive feel on the road while maintaining smooth, refined performance.
Efficiency remains a defining strength of the Grand Highlander Hybrid. The 2.5-liter hybrid achieves an EPA-estimated 37 mpg city and 34 mpg highway with front-wheel drive, or 36/32 mpg with all-wheel drive. Even the performance-focused Hybrid MAX AWD returns an impressive 26 mpg city and 27 mpg highway. This combination of power, efficiency, and versatility ensures that the 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid meets the needs of drivers looking for a capable, family-friendly, and fuel-efficient three-row SUV.
