Practicality and Comfort Come Together in the 2025 Toyota Highlander

With a 5,000-lb towing capacity and a maximum passenger volume of 141.8 cubic feet, the 2025 Toyota Highlander is undoubtedly a high-performance utility vehicle. Learn about all the ways this versatile three-row SUV can optimize your driving experience. 

The highlight of this dynamic SUV’s engineering is a 2.4-liter turbocharged engine that produces 265 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. A front-wheel drivetrain is standard, along with start-stop engine technology and an eight-speed ECT transmission. The Highlander is available with a 2.5-liter hybrid powertrain with standard electric on-demand AWD. 

Trailer sway control, an electronic stability system that maximizes trailer balance in inclement weather, is standard. On the hybrid Highlander models, the 5,000-lb towing capacity drops to 3,500 lbs, which is still adequate to tow medium-sized trailers or boats. Power-assisted and ventilated 13.3-inch front and rear disc brakes are standard. The gas-powered Highlander has Normal, Eco, Sport, and Snow driving modes. 

Cargo and Seating Capacity

The Highlander LE with the turbocharged gas motor has a standard eight-passenger seating capacity. On hybrid models, like the Hybrid XLE, the standard seating capacity is seven, with the option of upgrading to eight-passenger seating. The Highlander offers 16 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, 48.4 cubic feet behind the second row, and 84.3 cubic feet behind the first row so you can customize your cargo-carrying capacity. 

Convenience Features

The Highlander improves your driving experience with key convenience features to make the cabin more comfortable, such as high solar energy-absorbing glass on the front-side windows to minimize heat from the sunlight. The standard day/night rearview mirror on the base model is upgraded to a digital rearview mirror with built-in HomeLink on upper trims. Three-zone climate control for the front and rear rows is also standard. 

This SUV has body-colored power-adjustable side mirrors with heated glass, integrated turn signals, and blind spot warning indicators. The side mirrors can also fold close to the vehicle so you don’t have to worry about clipping the mirrors on narrow trails or when parking near walls. The front windshield has a built-in de-icer system for the windshield wiper, while the rear liftgate window has a defogger, a washer, and a washer system for the backup camera. 

Safety Features

The Highlander improves road safety with an assortment of cameras and sensors that act as a second set of eyes as you drive. A blind spot monitor with integrated rear cross-traffic alert can warn you about approaching traffic when you back out of a parking spot, while a lane departure alert system uses steering assistance to prevent unintentional lane drifting. 

The Highlander meets all of your daily driving needs with style and tons of convenience features. Ask about current finance offers when you call Perry Motors Toyota in Bishop, CA.
