Introducing the All-New 2027 Toyota Highlander: A Bold Step Into the Future of Electric SUVs

The highly anticipated 2027 Toyota Highlander is here, and it’s turning heads. Toyota has reinvented this beloved three-row SUV with a fully electric powertrain, modern design, and advanced technology—making it one of the most exciting SUV releases of the year.

Fully Electric SUV for Modern Families

For the first time in its history, the Toyota Highlander is going all-electric. Toyota has shifted away from gas and hybrid engines for this generation and embraced a fully battery-electric SUV design that delivers performance, efficiency, and remarkable range.

The new 2027 Highlander EV comes in two main trims:

• XLE with options for front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive

• Limited with standard all-wheel drive

These trims pair with two battery pack options—a 77 kWh unit and a larger 95.8 kWh pack—giving drivers flexibility based on their range and performance needs.

Range and Power You Can Rely On

One of the standout features of the 2027 Highlander is its compelling electric range. Depending on configuration:

• The front-wheel drive version estimates up to 287 miles of range per charge

• Upgrading to the larger battery with all-wheel drive pushes that to an estimated 320 miles of range

In terms of performance, the Highlander offers:

• 221 hp in front-wheel drive

• Up to 338 hp and 323 lb-ft of torque in all-wheel-drive versions

This makes the 2027 Highlander both a capable daily driver and a long-distance road trip SUV—perfect for families who want power and sustainability.

Room for the Whole Crew

The 2027 Toyota Highlander continues to deliver on what fans have come to expect: space, versatility, and comfort. With three rows of seating and smart interior design, the Highlander accommodates families of all sizes. Cargo space expands when the third row is folded, and thoughtful features like wireless charging and plentiful USB-C ports help keep everyone connected.

Cutting-Edge Technology and Safety

Toyota has packed this next-generation Highlander with modern technology:

• A large 14-inch touchscreen for infotainment

• A digital gauge cluster

• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

• Advanced driver assistance via Toyota Safety Sense 4.0

The Highlander also includes exciting new capabilities like Vehicle-to-Load (V2L), allowing owners to power external devices directly from the SUV’s battery—useful for camping trips or emergency backup power.

Designed for the Future

The 2027 Highlander’s exterior design is bold and modern, with clean lines that reflect its electric identity. A grille-less front end and sleek lighting give it a distinctive look that stands apart from previous Highlander generations.

When Can You Get One?

Toyota plans to begin sales for the 2027 Highlander in late 2026, with pricing expected to start in the range depending on trim and options.

Why the 2027 Toyota Highlander Is a Game-Changer

The new Highlander isn’t just another SUV—it’s Toyota’s bold step into the increasingly competitive electric SUV market. With its combination of impressive range, modern tech, family-friendly spaciousness, and all-electric design, the 2027 Toyota Highlander stands out as a must-see model for SUV buyers.
