2026 Toyota Grand Highlander · Trims · XLE

What is the 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander XLE?

The second-cheapest of the Grand Highlander's ten trims in our data. US 2026 live starting prices exclude $1,595 delivery, taxes and fees; 2027 announced separately. Confirm 2026 /allocation. The XLE starts at $45,030. On price, it sits between the LE ($42,260) and the LE ($45,610).

Our Grand Highlander data has all ten US 2026 / grades, fourteen factory configurations, stock 18/20-inch wheels, seven/eight-seat choices and core /surround-camera options. It doesn't have 2027 Woodland and other 2027 changes, paint, upholstery colors, regional bundles, port/dealer and a loaded towing calculator yet, so something missing from this page may still be offered.

About these comparisons

Each illustration and link uses the build behind its number. Comparisons cover the model years and bodies in our guides. Different rows can use different trims and equipment. Missing values aren’t treated as zero; reported prices and inferred ratings aren’t ranked.

  • Lowest listed trim price in each guide, before destination, options, taxes and fees. Cab and body styles can differ.
  • Highest published output found in each guide. This compares available power, not acceleration or the trim you selected.
  • Best published combined rating found in each guide, including regular hybrids. Plug-in ratings and inferred matches are excluded.
