2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Consumer Reviews

This car checks all the boxes for a decent sized suv. It’s a Toyota so it’s been reliable so far, and the service is always great. Downsides are that the car has a lot of road noise, and the interior is cheaply made. I find the regular Highlander I owned before was a much better “ride” and more fun to drive. The regular Highlander was just way too small for me. The grand is the perfect size. If Toyota can fix the road noise and have better quality interior I would give it 5 stars. I will probably look at the Lexus TX for my next car (supposedly the same as the grand Highlander but the luxury version)

I have owned this vehicle since July 2023. I bought it for the size and am a loyal Toyota owner. cons: -the cupholders in the 2nd row suck if you have the bench seat. You can fit a water bottle is all. -both sides of my cv axles have went out already and still waiting on parts as they are backordered -the gas tank on gas model is very small i average just 300-315 miles per tank so frequent fill ups -lack of features compared to other vehicles in class - no storage under the back like other models have -tires it came with are cheap--- already need replaced at 40k miles!! most new cars ive owned is 60-70k before needed tires pros: - the size is nice -its dependable bc a toyota -the puddle lights when you walk up to the car in dark is nice to light up

I purchased the 2026 Toyota grand Highlander platinum hybrid max I wasn’t looking for a grand Highlander. It just happened to be at the dealership when the person who ordered the vehicle change their mind. I got it for 58K which is good deal for that vehicle, but I could not be happier, averaging 26 miles per gallon I also tried to gas model and found it to be underpowered, but the hybrid max smooth, and I love it

I bought this yesterday, and could not be more pleased. Wonderful features including two built in dvd players in the headrest for kids.

The 2024 Grand Highlander has a solid ride and powertrain that makes it very conformable to ride in. It is very spacious and can hold a family of five with no issues. That all said the technology has issues. Since I drove off the lot with this car I have had to go back to the dealership 4 times in under 13k miles. 2 times for collision sensors failing and 2 times for the fuel gauge sensors. The fuel gauge says I am empty but in reality I have 2.8 gallons. On the second time back I spoke with Toyota and after 2 weeks their resolution was to say it’s normal (when I drove off lot did not have the issue) and maybe go back and have the fuel sensor reset again. So I am now left guessing if I have more miles left or running on empty. Lastly the Bluetooth just randomly kicks you off or stops working. The dealership reset it at one of the visits but now am having an issue again. All in all disappointed in the product and am thankful that I am only leasing it.

Excellent vehicle, I have the gas and not Hybrid and I love it, Gas is great too. Rides to comfortably, so many updated features (I previously owned a 4runner). Fits all of our children and has been with us through multiple out of state rides including, CA, UT, AZ. We also love the way it looks, we had other vehicle's in mind before purchasing this one but didn't fit all the requirements including reliability and Toyota has that.

As background, we are a Toyota family having had 2 Sienna vans, 2 RAV4s [one hybrid], and 2 CAMRYs [one hybrid]. Added a GGH Limited with pano view, no pano roof - [quieter and less air penetration] mud flaps, tow hitch, bench seat and extra rear area lighting. Notables: 1. Comfortable seating for 8 on par with our 2015 Sienna 8 seat van. 3rd row space slightly less than van better than all other SUVs we looked at [Telluride, EV9, Palisade, Pilot, Pathfinder, Highlander, TX and CX 90]. 2. Superb gas mileage - so far with almost 9,000 miles now averaging around 35 mpg after 10 months. 3. Powerful enough engine - has slightly less power than van's V6 but much quieter while cruising and a bit noisier with full throttle acceleration so we have adapted to a lower thrust on takeoff. 4. Storage capacity very close to being on par with van. [Test drove a 24 Hybrid Sienna van and space is down so it is now even w/GHH]. Fully loaded to beach provides excellent storage of everything we pack. 5. Electronics are great - fully adaptive cruise has us feeling rested and refreshed after 4-5 hours of driving. Lane keep assist very natural feeling without fighting it. Pano view a must, especially helpful when parking. 6. Power options work well together - power memory seats, power windows, auto folding power external mirrors, power trunk with kick action although sometimes it takes more kicks to activate - the quicker the kick the better it works. 7. Touchscreen features change screens quickly and 12.3" touch screen very crisp[ wish it had split view and easier music information] multiple pano views very clear and helpful. There is a volume button on the left which seems asymmetrical with no tuning button on the right. 8. HVAC heats quickly and electric seat warmer/vents are great until HVAC kicks in. 9. Ride is very comfortable, plush and yet handles well for its size. 10. Tow hitch wonderful for towing 2 e bikes using Holiday Destination eBike rack with light bar - highly recommend this combo. Miscellaneous issues 1. Wind noise on highway can be intrusive on windy days, otherwise it is supremely quiet overall. 2. Gas tank has nice holder feature for cap. 3. Slight shimmer/shake of hood metal and other panels is noted but results in no rattles and hood and doors close with a nice thud so I cannot explain how this exists. Some are bothered by the shimmy. Recap: Ride and handling are great for a large SUV. Fit and finish is awesome. Styling fits the family needs. We drive with the 3rd row down and the bench provides us a 5 seater with extended storage - hence the bench was a must. We are extremely happy with the vehicle in this hybrid trim and cannot find anything that would have us part with it or choose the Max engine which delivers much less mpgs, or the Platinum trim which add dealer profit and no substantial features.

Love the car but the rear ac with excessive condensation both inside and out on the passenger side rear quarter panel is an engineering failure.
