Gas or Hybrid—Two Ways to Power Your Journey

Toyota continues its commitment to offering multiple powertrain paths.

• Highlander Gas Models:
  A turbocharged 2.4L four-cylinder engine delivers 265 hp and 309 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. AWD models are available with Dynamic Torque Vectoring for better traction and cornering control, while towing capacity reaches 5,000 lb.

• Highlander Hybrid Models:
  Toyota’s renowned Hybrid Synergy Drive pairs a 2.5L engine with two motor-generators for a combined 243 hp. The system achieves a remarkable 6.7 L/100 km (combined) and offers a 3,500 lb towing rating. Its electronic on-demand AWD ensures confidence in all conditions.
