- The #ToyotaGrandHighlander has been the 3-row family SUV that #Toyota has needed for years. It finally arrived last year and the #GrandHighlander with the #HybridMax powertrain is also one of the most powerful and fuel-efficient SUV's in its class. It's an easy choice if you want space, power, and efficiency all wrapped into one.

5.56 seconds to 60 is pretty crazy for a “family hauler.” Would love to test drive that someday.
Yep I think the regular hybrid that gets mid 30s MPG is probably the best bet for most families vs more power
5.5 is not fast
You can't as it is on stop sale now.
@@user-FTRU6GJ it is if you think about it a Honda civic is lighter and get 0-60 in 7 seconds
@@user-FTRU6GJ it is considering the size and weight of this car. The Camry V6 never got 5.5 0-60 and that was significantly lighter and smaller than this.
Thank you Sofyan… a bunch of reviewers saying this was a bigger Highlander but honestly this looks like a much bigger RAV4 from the outside… should’ve called it the GrandRAV4 😆
RAV8
@@gNoj8956 LMAO!
RAV4 XXL
500h owner here. Same problem with the fuel light being conservative. Thisis the car to get if you are CVT averse. Wonderful car overall.
Thanks for noting that, as I AM CVT averse. What’s worse than a 6-spd. A/T? A 1-spd. tranny. He said that a PHEV is a Lexus exclusive; that’s your TX 500h? (I have a Mazda CX-70 PHEV w/8-spd. A/T & 323bhp on order.)
You didn't show the 2nd and 3rd row.
Its in his previous review of the same car
I wish there is an optional bench seats for higher trims
Sofyan, This is surely the best Grand Highlander for Nurburgring duty. For simply getting groceries, the ordinary, 35 mpg Hybrid is probably the better option. 😉
@@rightlanehog3151 so why not get a sienna if you’re going for the regular hybrid instead? You get more features than the grand Highlander and the ingress / egress is far easier and you can make it work in tight parking spots
@@naveenthemachinewhat more features are you talking about? Sienna doesn’t even have 12 inch screen. You do know that many people don’t like minivans, right?
@@blackwhirlwind1245 for example 4 way lumbar, long slide seats, and 4 zone climate control
Get a sienna limited or platinum and you get a power tilt telescope wheel and ottomans. And hands free sliding doors
And some of those things you can’t even get on an $82k TX550h
Sadly Toyota/Lexus lost me when i kept looking at their suvs n all of the newest gen having engine, airbag and transmission failures regardless of application or version. Really wanted a newer model but something is going very wrong there that is now5-6 current gen suvs with recalls that matter
This is what Toyota has been planning all along. They have built such reliable vehicles that it rarely saw the dealership for any major issues. So they made money up front for all the sales but made a little to nothing in maintenance. So they decided to make a crappy line so that the Toyota Techs have something to do and earn. It's kind of an "F'd" way for Toyota to go this route.
more like our cars last too long so we gonna make it less reliable so that people will have to dump our "old garbage" for new ones. They definitely got that from big 3.
The Grand Highlander is awesome. Wish it had an XSE. Gotta love that peanut butter interior color scheme too. And 5.5 secs is faster than TX...dang
I have the same range issue with the regular hybrid model. Toyota does not want you to damage the Hybrid system by running out of gas. Crap -ton of space in the rear ... love it. Almost as good as Ass-load of space.
Many gas model owners are experiencing the same issue. Dealerships just use the protecting hybrid system story to shut customers up.
I have a gas model XLE. While it says 17 gallons to fill up. In reality it will only let you fill up to 12 gallons max. Just let you jump from gas stations to gas stations. Mention it to my dealer and they said they haven’t heard of any complaints about it.
@@therandomblogs583same with me o have a gh hybrid limited
NOOOOO CVT, perfectly fine as is
The 2024 Grand Highlander Hybrid Max is recalled along with every other Grand Highlander and Lexus TX. Toyota put a stop sale on them for a major safety issue with an airbag.
What about the stop sale on these
Yep that and the TX. New Toyotas are crapping the bed… i considered a lexus RX500h… nothing but transmission failures… sticking with BMW
Shhhhhhhh. We don’t mention that here. 😉😉😉
@@greensleeves8095 Yup, not for sale today. The production line has been shit off for potential fatal flaw(s).
I was going to get one.but this prevented me from getting one
@@ssadiq1000 the whole assembly plant is down for over a month in Indiana.
I think this is better than the sequoia.
It has more room than a sequoia, but obviously isn’t going to tow as much as one, but most people aren’t towing most of the tike
For most folks probably, if one needs more power to tow stuff and off-road the Sequoia is better there being body on frame with the more powerful powertrain
@@chibbyylol Most people don't tow tbh and if they do they probably have a truck.
It is as you cannot buy this due to stop sale for a month to fix quality issues.
Aside from towing and some interior trims/features, the GH is WAY better
Good review. We own the Lexus RX500H with the same powertrain. I can definitely say the six speed auto is great! If it came with a CVT transmission, I would not have purchased it. The RX is definitely fast, with great suspension and brakes.
This with a 26 gallon tank would be nicer.
I honestly think if Toyota highlander sales are substantially lower than the Grand Highlander, they might as well call the Grand Highlander the Highlander
interesting point. i ponder the next HL…
Grand Highlander is having safety problems, why do you advertise it bro?
They're influencers, not "auto journalists". They don't cover the problems.
A review is not an advertisement
@@blackwhirlwind1245
It is still wrong to review faulty car, with potential engine and transmission issues.
What safty issue?
@@agerautimate8272
Airbags do not deploy properly during crash
So true about the breaks. I just got a 2024 Highlander XSE, and the breaks take getting used to.
You need to visit kindergarten again
Safety recall issues!
I get confused by the MPG on my 2022 Corolla Hybrid also. The computer will say I have about 40 miles left to empty, but when I add gas, it put in about 9 gallons and the tank should hold about 11 gallons, and I regularly get 55 mile plus per gallon which means I should have at least another 100 miles left to empty.
Still going to go with a Toyota Sienna for our family
I like that home amplifier look under the info screen.
I like it with the chrome rims. The back seats are huge. Just wish Toyota created a good ev with more range.
The GH is an amazing family hauler and I dont know how Toyota can justify selling the regular Highlander.
I also struggle to go up to the TX outside of the name and dealer experience. The interior of this Platinum-spec seems more Lexus like than the actual Lexus. Sadly, these have a $3-$5K markup in our area.
@@hellkitty1014 ig the regular Highlander is there for ppl that want a big 2 row SUV but need a 3rd row to haul ppl for short periods of time.
No markup here in the SF Bay Area. All are at MSRP.
the regular HL is more affordable since it has the base trim, thats one reason it will stick around
Best vehicle in its class!
You cannot buy. Stop sale for a month due to quality issues.
@@normt430recalls **
Cx90 is leagues above this crap
@@mbenton6 nah different purpose the Mazda tryna b luxury like bmw Highlander tryna br simple family hauler with some nice luxury touches
@@jxmar_ yeah no it’s not. Any other 3 row is superior to this dated suv
Nice try
I would love to buy this if they come out with a FULL ELECTRIC version!
I’ll never understand why car companies want to shove cvt transmissions and hybrids down our throats when literally every person I’ve ever spoken to in my life doesn’t want either one of these things.
I want a good quality, reliable standard long lasting transmission and a good ole reliable v6 gas engine or diesel built with quality materials and offers good power and good efficiency. We have spent years developing the high quality gas engines we have today and they are just scraping them for ev and little 4 cylinder hybrids , it’s sickening.
News flash Toyota, Chevy, Ford and every other manufacturer in the world, Gasoline is not going away for years if ever, in fact I expect over the next few years we will be drilling and selling more oil than ever and prices will come down to very affordable prices.
Haters keep hating.
Toyota is the first ever automaker to have a recall.
Right!? lol
@@MikeSchneider-wz3ol but for Toyota it’s inexcusable
Other brands like ford Hyundai kia Genesis etc have had twin turbo v6 engines for a long time. Because Toyota came very late to the turbo v6 party yet they still can’t make them right. You’d think because Toyota came very late that they would get it to absolute perfection. Yet they didn’t.
Sounds good💨
They have had multiple across the line, different motors, different cars. I’m a huge Toyota lexus fan but if you research the RX, TX, GX… The Grand Highlander, Seqioa… they’ve all had different engine, airbag, transmission failures. Not sure what happened in this current gen but it’s not doing well.
@@jissanhuq3792you should see other brands. Toyota / Lexus doesn’t even make the top 10 list of most recalls
I have a Rav4 and the trip computer does the same thing. I think Toyota programs their trip computers to warn you to refuel early.
Same with my Corolla
@@kobbycrentsil2859Google is your best friend when it comes to fuel mileage estimates. I have a 2020 Corolla LE that I have had for 4 years now and I have never gone close to empty for my fuel and normally I fill with 1/4 tank left or just below that but my LE can go close to 437 miles in a tank
The absolute best! Well done Toyota! 👍👍👍
But cannot be purchased as they had to stop sale for a month to fix it.
@@normt430 not a problem for me
@@gerry9306 so it is not for sale and not the best.
@@normt430 sorry Norma, it's the best. Your skewed logic doesn't work
@@gerry9306 Please step away from the Toyota punch bowl as you are drunk!
I think people would be better off with a minivan at a car of this size. That being said, I hope the next gen Sienna comes soon and has a plug in hybrid version.
The fuel issue is a long discussion topic among GH owners. You are correct that the software is overly conservative in its estimation and makes us fuel when it still has 5+ gallons. Many owners have complained about this issue but Toyota doesn’t seem to think it’s an issue.
Not for sale with major recall!
It's not a major recall. It's toyota being nervous because of the past issues with takata airbags. It's literally one airbag on the passenger side if you leave the window open and roll over that it "might" not deploy. I saw a new tx350 about a month ago rolled over and the curtain airbags all worked and windows were open. I have pics too
@@patrickrk44 Toyota shut down the factory right in the middle of a brand new product launch. This and other problems are major NHTSA violations and need correcting before being sold.
Need the 2025 models to come out!
Hope they fix all the recall/alternative issues on this first year model. This seems like a solid car overall.
I have this vehicle, but the limited hybrid max. I have the same issue with the gas, I am always told I have to fill up, yet I have 5 gallons left. My husband says Toyota did it to protect the hybrid system, it’s still annoying. I do get around 30-31 miles to the gallon on the high way and 27 in town. My biggest issue is when hitting the gas the car down shifts hard which causes a jerk when trying to go. It doesn’t happen all the time but every once in a while. But compared to what I had before, this vehicle is hands down an amazing vehicle.
I’ve considered it. However, the seats are harder than the new Atlas. Shoulder room doesn’t feel as roomy as the Atlas. HybridMax is definitely faster for sure. But, many dealers around me also are offering $10-$20k over MSRP for HybridMax models
Yup, Toyota set their gas tank alert at about 3-4 gallons remaining. My NX gas light comes on at E, but I fill up at 12 gallons on a 15.4 gallon tank.
Toyota probably is conservative with the fuel range to preserve the fuel pump. Fuel does more than burn in the combustion chamber, it also cools the fuel pump. Ultimately, running the fuel low will reduce its service life.
You can set the walk away lock function on Toyotas. You just need to do it using tech stream (at the dealer), Carly, or Carista instead of through the UI menus.
Is this vehicle free if your name is Derek Zoolander or Derek Highlander? Those names are similar. Does that mean this vehicle does not turn left?
Good luck finding one to buy anywhere. It appears short on supply at the moment. So it’s a bit of a sellers market. An 8 to 10 month wait when we inquired, most people will likely shop elsewhere until supply improves. .. If you need the space.
Man, I love watching all of your videos, but I can't believe you don't mention that there is currently a stop sale on these due to a safety issue (especially when pitching it as "family-friendly"). I will tell myself that this was recorded prior and the video just got out late. Toyota needs to get back to what made it the brand everyone loved, reliability and affordability. Given all of the issues with the Grand Highlander, Tacoma, and Tundras, it appears they have lost their way.
It would be great if they put this infotainment and powertrain in a Sienna since the Sienna is so far ahead of this on cargo space with all seats in use.
The Subaru Outback has an 18.5 gallon gas tank and gets up to 600 miles of range with the naturally aspirated flat 4. Something is surely off with this G. Highlander.
This powertrain has a turbo charged engine. Not sure why you're comparing N/A 4 mileage to a turbo 4.
Who cares?
You could probably fit a whole outback inside this grand Highlander with room to spare
So when did the Outback offer 7 seats?
Compare it when the outback comes with a Hybrid and the size of the ascent
I wish the top trip had bench seats for 8 passengers
Redesigning the Ford logo would be like redesigning the American Flag.
TO me the outside looks better than the Lexus version. TO me Lexus did not even try to make it look non-toyota like
A problem with Toyota that I’ve noticed when I first got one of these if gets 17 miles to the gallon but we only got 12 ? I don’t know but I know Toyota is trying to fix thus
Great review, thinking of getting one

Hello how do you make such monthly ?? I'm a born Christian, and sometimes I feel so down of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God.
Thanks to Mrs Anastacia Snelleksz
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Anastacia Snelleksz) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
I'm surprised that this name is being mentioned here, I stumbled upon one of her clients testimony on CNBC news last week.
The range on my 2023 Toyota Corolla Hybrid is the same. After fueling my estimated range is about 390 miles but comparing to my trip odometer my range is truly about 300 because I’m about near empty.
lol my gas 2020 LE is 437 miles
Do you know if they really stopped production and the sale of this vehicle? Also what to expect for the 2025 model year? I ordered one (Platinum Hybrid Max) in Canada in June 2023 and I’m still waiting for it. Should I just wait for the 2025 model year? I just don’t see the value of getting a new car and in a couple of months , it would be “last year’s model”
Great Review . Sufi bro
A shame they don't let you get a three place second row with the Hybrid Max (especially with a removable middle seat). A two seat second row just doesn't work for our family.
Getting big Subaru vibes from those tail lights
They don’t have 2025 grand Highlander information because they too busy fixing the engine recall issues with the Tundra, the Highlander and the TX
Ngl the Lexus TX500H+ is better if money was no object.
Now worth the price tag at allllll
I'm still scratching my head as to why Toyota went this route with the powertrain. They chose to take the legendary 2GR out and replace it with a 2.5 4 banger turbo. Toyota could have done a 3.5 2GR with a supercharger, then mate that with an electric motor. Heck, the 3.5 V6 Toyota's in AU had a mild supercharger already. They should have built upon that. Oh wait...that would have been too reliable for Toyota...nvm.
What about the recalls ?
Wow the interior is similar to the tx in a lot ways
The Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max
tires that come with this vehicle are absolutely trash. Dealing with a second flat already in one month. They are so delicate. The slightest little thing can cut right through them. Toyota must update these tires. Two more rigid ones. (GRAND
HIGHLANDER)
I’m in Canada. Similar issue with the gas tank. Gas light comes on with 30km to empty and when that goes to 0km it changes to REFUEL. The car can drive another 80km with REFUEL on. Just with gas light on it can do 100km. I took my GH to Toyota and they connected the computer and it shows how much gas it had when it was empty I figured out the reserve is very conservative. Annoying but you also do not want to run out of gas with a hybrid motor. Hopefully toyota can provide an update so the light doesn’t come on too early.
You are destroying your fuel pump when you do that
@@alvinsimba734 I’m not destroying anything. I took the car to Toyota and they connected their computer to the car the vehicle had low fuel and read that the car still had 7L of fuel in it.
These new dynamic force engines are pretty much ticking time bombs...
This car looks better than the TX, what is the point of the TX other than the Lexus badge?
Toyota recall airbag not deployed while window down... Grand Highlander's included!
TOYOTA NEEDS TO OFFER BENCH SEAT ALSO IN HYBRID MAX PLATINUM... SOME LARGE FAMILY WANTS 8 SEAT CONFIGURATION ALSO WITH ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLE..
Too bad you can't get one from the dealership because of an active airbag recall
I like your vids & I will buy this new SUV 1 day.
Ha. The same thing with the rav4. I have run the car to 10miles to empty, never put more than 10.5 gallons in it. It has always been off.
There’s already a recall on that issue for the rav4
How’s the AC in these cars? I live in a Phoenix Arizona and it’s very hot!
I live in Puerto Rico and I have the Hybrid Max Limited, Air Conditioner works like a Charm!
Regular hybrid is the best one to buy
What cross over two row with 350-400Hp do you recommend
I liked your review -- very explanatory. However, it looks terribly simple! A grand simple car with a very high price tag. Thanks
Isn’t it in the safety recall?
Please be cautious..on these new engines..tundra is facing really bad engine issue
I wish the current RX350h had close to this power. I feel like it's underpowered, especially if you try to spec it out fully.
RX500H F-Sport Performance has the same engine
Large America familly!! Dude I feel offended 😂😂😂
They stopped production of this and the TX due to the curtain airbags.
Can’t wait for people to do a rear wiper delete on this lol. I didn’t realize how dinky it looked until the end segment of the video the cars huge and the wipers tiny!😂
My grand Highlander is beautiful
With the RAV4 and this grand babe, the regular Highlander is moot. They should get rid of it and drop the Grand off of this one name.
I'm not giving up on my V6 Highlander 🤨
Same. The new motor that they have can't ever touch the legendary 2GR 3.5 V6.
Love to buy me a Lexus or Toyota but their grill designs are so ugly that I cannot do it. They need to fired their designers.
They're in competition with BMW for ugliest grills. Beaver tooth BMW wins in my book.

Extremely complicated powertrain I guess Toyota isn’t learning from the tundras issue
At $60K, they could have used struts, rather than a rod. IMO
Also, I don't like the color combination of the interior. Doesn't go well together. Again, IMO
When can we buy this ?
I have the Grand Highlander Platinum since Aug. 2023. Driving in Eco mode I have averaged 22.5 mpg the entire time. Drove a 2000 mile trip, still got 22.5 mpg. Infotainment issues. I'm disappointed in the vehicle.
I’d dump it if I were you
Actually you can color match the car color in 360° camera view in the settings which I did have Ruby Flare color.
5 seats avaiable?
I have no interest in any Toyotas that do not have a naturally aspirated V6. No hybrids, no turbos, no CVT, no thanks.
