Overview
- Production will take place at Toyota’s Georgetown, Kentucky plant using battery packs from its new North Carolina facility.
- Two battery choices are offered—77.0 kWh and 95.8 kWh—with a 221 hp front-drive setup or 338 hp dual-motor AWD and an estimated 320 miles of range with the larger pack.
- A NACS DC fast-charge port targets 10–80% in about 30 minutes, and the model debuts Toyota’s first U.S. Vehicle-to-Load capability.
- Riding on a modified TNGA-K platform, the SUV grows roughly 4 inches in length with a wheelbase stretch of over 8 inches, offering mostly six-seat layouts and one seven-passenger configuration.
- Launch is slated for late 2026, and coverage notes Toyota’s move follows a sales swing from Highlander to Grand Highlander as outlets question demand for three-row EVs and a likely premium price without an announced MSRP.
