The all-new 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander has finally been unveiled and it doesn't disappoint. Promising remarkable interior versatility, the 2024 Grand Highlander also delivers on performance, advanced safety and connectivity technology, and impressive efficiency. Here are five things you want to know about the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander.

It promises to stand out with its cargo space

The 2024 Grand Highlander will fit between the current Highlander and the 2023 Toyota Sequoia. It will be a much more spacious and welcoming version of the Highlander, especially when looking at the space in the cargo area. With over 2,775 L of cargo space behind the front seats, the Grand Highlander gives you roughly 400 extra litres of space compared to the traditional Highlander. This should help create a much larger area behind the third row where Toyota says you can fit seven carry-on bags.

2024 Toyota Grand Highlander also will deliver plenty of passenger space

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander also stand out when it comes to interior space. The second row can feature a three-seat bench or a dual captain’s chairs setup. This means the Grand Highlander can comfortably fit seven or eight passengers, the eight-passenger configuration being standard. The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander also promises to be quite welcoming in the third row. Indeed, Toyota says adults will be able to fit comfortably for long trips.

Two hybrid engines and a powerful standard turbocharged four-cylinder

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander will come standard with the same 2.4-litre four-cylinder turbo engine that we find in the current Highlander. Developing 264 hp and 310 pound-feet of torque, this engine provides impressive performance out of the gate while also delivering 5,000 pounds of towing capacity.

Two hybrid engines will also be offered. The first is the same 2.5-litre hybrid we find in the current Highlander and it should deliver similar output and fuel economy. That means owners can expect an average fuel consumption rating of under 7 L per 100 km. The next engine is another hybrid powertrain that is even more impressive.

Indeed, the available Hybrid MAX powertrain delivers a potent 362 hp and 400 pound-feet of torque courtesy of a hybrid combination of an electric motor and the 2.4-litre turbo. Toyota says you will reach 100 km/h in under 7.0 seconds with this powertrain.
