Whether you spend most of your week commuting through freeway traffic or loading up for longer coastal drives with family and friends, the Grand Highlander Hybrid is built to handle both situations comfortably. At Toyota of Poway, we’ve seen how drivers gravitate toward hybrid SUVs that don’t force them to sacrifice space or capability, and that’s exactly why the Grand Highlander Hybrid stands out.
The Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid offers a 2.5L hybrid powertrain producing 245 combined net horsepower paired with an Electronically Controlled Continuously Variable Transmission and Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive. Toyota also includes EV Mode for low-speed electric driving, along with a Stop & Start Engine System. Efficiency stays strong throughout the lineup as well. The 2.5L hybrid models achieve an EPA-estimated 36 city / 32 highway / 34 combined MPG while still offering up to 3,500 pounds of towing capacity. The available 5,000-pound towing capacity can also help with towing situations. Available Multi-Terrain Select modes, including Mud & Sand, Rock & Dirt, and Normal, also help the Hybrid MAX feel more versatile for changing road conditions outside the city.
The Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid fits naturally into Southern California life because it balances efficiency, passenger comfort, and long-distance driving extremely well. Around San Diego, we think the hybrid system feels especially valuable during heavier freeway congestion on I-5 and the 163, where smoother low-speed driving and improved fuel economy become much more noticeable. Near Carlsbad, the spacious cabin and quieter hybrid driving fit perfectly with coastal commuting and weekend family travel. Out toward Escondido, the available all-wheel drive system and added towing capability help make the Grand Highlander Hybrid feel more flexible for drivers balancing suburban routines with outdoor recreation and longer highway drives.
At Toyota of Poway, our team spends time helping drivers find the right features for the Toyota Grand Highlander. We also offer rotating new vehicle specials that may help make upgrading easier. When it’s time to discuss financing, our finance department can help drivers explore payment options that fit different budgets and lifestyles, while our service department is here to help support your hybrid vehicle long after the purchase.
