Toyota Grand Highlander Prices & Markups

Across 7,000 listed Toyota Grand Highlanders nationwide, the average markup is +$246 vs MSRP and 60% are listed at or below sticker, with a median advertised price of $57,368. Updated daily.

The gas-powered Grand Highlander is the mainstream three-row Toyota for buyers who don't need the hybrid system's fuel economy and don't want to pay the hybrid premium. The 2.4L turbocharged four-cylinder makes 265 horsepower; not class-leading, but appropriate for the vehicle's mission.

Three trims: XLE, Limited, and Platinum. XLE is the volume play — three rows, the safety suite, AWD optional, and a price gap from the Hybrid version that makes the math interesting. The MAX powertrain isn't offered on the gas Grand Highlander; if you want the 362-hp i-FORCE MAX, you're shopping the hybrid lineup.

Pricing has eased materially since launch. Below-MSRP deals are common on the XLE; Limited and Platinum hold firmer but still negotiate. For buyers who tow occasionally or drive a lot of highway miles, the hybrid is worth the $2K-ish premium; for buyers doing mostly city commuting with rare highway runs, the gas version is the value pick.

Markup by Listing Age

The Grand Highlanders still on lots after a month or two tend to carry higher markups — the sharply-priced ones sell first. Favor fresher listings, or negotiate hard on stock that's been sitting.
