If you’ve been waiting for an electric version of the Toyota Highlander, good news — it’s finally happening. Toyota has confirmed that the Highlander is going electric, and it’s expected to hit the market sooner than many anticipated.
Design
The EV version of the Toyota Highlander stays true to the familiar, solid design that fans of the model appreciate. It has that clean, family-friendly SUV look, with a few tweaks to signal its electric future — like a closed-off grille and updated lighting. Nothing too flashy, just subtle and modern.
Features
Step inside, and the Highlander EV feels just as roomy and practical as the older models — maybe even a bit more open. There’s a big touchscreen front and center (which is pretty much standard now), along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Toyota’s usual safety features are there too, like lane assist and adaptive cruise control.

Since this is Toyota’s move into electric with the Highlander, there won’t be any gas-powered engine — just a fully electric motor setup. While official specs haven’t been released yet, it’s expected to offer all-wheel drive and a solid amount of torque, making it suitable for both city and highway use.
Mileage
No EPA range has been confirmed, but Toyota is aiming for a competitive number — likely somewhere around 300 miles on a full charge. That would put it in the same league as other mid-size electric SUVs, which is great for family road trips or long commutes.
Price
Toyota hasn’t revealed the final price yet, but it’ll likely start somewhere around $50,000. It’s definitely not budget-level, but for those looking for a reliable, all-electric SUV, it might be worth the stretch.
