The 2027 Toyota Highlander is an all-electric SUV built for families. It fits in the midsize three-row SUV segment with seating for up to seven people. It replaces the gas and hybrid Highlander with a pure battery-electric design.
It offers two battery sizes: a 77.0 kWh pack and a larger 95.8 kWh pack. Estimates suggest range up to about 515 km (about 320 miles) on a full charge with the larger battery. It uses the North American Charging System (NACS) port for DC fast charging and can reach roughly 10–80 percent in about 30 minutes under good conditions. Level 1 and Level 2 charging are supported.
Toyota has not confirmed final pricing, though estimates point to a starting level similar to other three-row EVs in the low to mid-$50,000 range. The Highlander suits families and drivers who need space and want an electric SUV in daily use. Other Toyota EVs include the bZ4X and bZ Woodland. Alternatives are the Kia EV9 and Hyundai Ioniq 9. Compared with the 2026 Highlander hybrid, the 2027 EV removes the gas engine and adds longer all-electric range.
