How much does the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander cost?

Prices have softened 6.37% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,643 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

If you find a listing below $44,069.58, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8/10 expert rating.

The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Form and function, and Safety.

It stands out as a bigger, more fuel-efficient three-row crossover with extra space, plenty of cargo room, and multiple powertrain choices, including two hybrid options. That makes it a strong fit if you need more room than a regular three-row crossover can provide and want a family-friendly package with Toyota’s reputation for reliability.

The trade-offs are clear: the ride is let down by poor handling, and too many subscription-dependent tech features may frustrate you if you prefer a simpler ownership experience.

With 30.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander is presented as a practical, well-built family vehicle with Toyota’s reputation for reliability behind it. The expert review also says the interior looks like it will hold up well over time, which is a good sign if you plan to keep the vehicle for years.

Its powertrain lineup is broad, with gas and hybrid choices that give you flexibility depending on whether you value efficiency or stronger performance. The fuel-efficient hybrid options also help reduce the strain of ownership if you drive a lot.

If you’re buying used, the main long-term risk is less about basic durability and more about whether the tech-heavy ownership experience and any prior use have left the vehicle in the condition you expect.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 90.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re shopping for a higher-mileage example or a trim with more equipment. Focus on overall condition, interior wear, and whether the features you care about are actually present on the specific vehicle you’re considering.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The XLE uses Softex synthetic leather, while the Limited and Platinum upgrade to real leather. The XLE also gets a 10-way power driver seat, an eight-way front passenger seat, and heated front seats, while the higher trims add ventilation and a heated steering wheel.
• Powertrain: You can choose from a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 265 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, a 2.5-liter hybrid with 245 combined net horsepower, or the Hybrid Max with 362 combined net horsepower and 400 combined net lb-ft of torque. The gas and hybrid engines are available with FWD and AWD, while the Hybrid Max is AWD only.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 includes automatic emergency braking, lane-departure alert with steering assist, lane-tracing assist, road-sign recognition, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. The updated lane-departure alert can identify three-dimensional objects like guard rails, and adaptive cruise control offers four following-distance settings.
• Infotainment: Every model gets a 12.3-inch touchscreen, standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-device Bluetooth connectivity, and available connected-services features such as an intelligent assistant, cloud-based navigation, and live agent assistance.
• Fuel efficiency: Gas models return 21 mpg city, 28 highway, and 24 combined with FWD, while AWD versions are rated at 21/27/23 for the XLE and 20/26/22 for the Limited and Platinum. The hybrid XLE returns 36/32/34, the Hybrid Limited with AWD returns 35/21/33, and the Hybrid Max returns 26/27/27.

Which 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander trim should I buy?

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander is offered in 3 trim levels: XLE, Limited, and Platinum.

Here's the short version:

• XLE: This is the best-value starting point if you want the Grand Highlander’s core strengths without paying for extras you may not need. You still get the big cabin, standard advanced safety features, heated front seats, and the 12.3-inch touchscreen, so it covers the essentials well.
• Limited: This trim adds a more upscale feel with real leather, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and the standard JBL audio system. It makes sense if you want a more premium family hauler and are willing to pay for comfort upgrades.
• Platinum: Choose this if you want the most upscale version of the lineup, including the highest-end cabin presentation and the option for Portobello upholstery with the top-spec engine. It’s the trim to consider if you want the most equipment and are shopping near the top of the range.

Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard across the lineup, so you don’t need to move up a trim just to get the core driver-assistance package.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile opportunities.

• Inventory: There are 1,643 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.37% compared with last year.

What is the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander's resale value?

The current average of $44,899 sits slightly below last year's $47,955.

That softer pricing suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer today but may limit upside if you’re thinking about short-term resale. For a future seller, the current trend means you should expect pricing pressure unless the vehicle is especially well equipped, lightly used, and in excellent condition.

The Grand Highlander’s broad appeal as a roomy, efficient family crossover should help support demand over time. Strong owner satisfaction also tends to help keep used buyers interested when it’s time to sell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander safe?

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 comes standard and includes automatic emergency braking, lane-departure alert with steering assist, lane-tracing assist, road-sign recognition, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. The updated lane-departure alert can identify three-dimensional objects like guard rails, and adaptive cruise control offers four following-distance settings.

Because this model year has yet to be crash-tested or rated by either NHTSA or IIHS, you should lean more heavily on the standard safety equipment and the vehicle’s overall design when evaluating it. That makes a careful test drive and feature check especially important if safety is a top priority for you.

Should I buy a 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 30.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 90.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.37% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It brings extra space, multiple powertrain options, and standard advanced safety features in a brand-new model year.

The bottom line: If you want the newest version with strong space, efficiency, and safety equipment, the 2024 is the cleanest choice. If you’re more price-sensitive, you may want to compare nearby model years to see whether you can save money without giving up the features and room you need.
