2025 Toyota Grand Highlander SUV Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander is a midsize three-row SUV available in four trim levels: LE, XLE, Limited and Platinum. Each trim comes with a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (265 horsepower, 310 lb-ft of torque) and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on the LE, XLE and Limited trims, with all-wheel drive optional on those trims and standard on the Platinum. There's also a Grand Highlander Hybrid — available with two electrified powertrains — that we review separately. Keep reading for our rundown of the Grand Highlander's significant standard features and options.
Which Grand Highlander trim does Edmunds recommend?
We recommend the XLE. Its handful of upgrades over the base LE are the sort of indispensable features you would either miss if they weren't there or quickly come to appreciate. (The second-row sunshades alone are lifesavers for cutting down on backseat whining.) The Limited's upgrades over the XLE fall in the "would be nice but we could definitely live without them" category.
