2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Towing Capacity by Engine
When you look at how much a Toyota Grand Highlander can tow, you’ll be looking at three different powertrains. You might be surprised that two of them are based on hybrid engines. While the smaller hybrid option doesn’t have quite as much towing capacity, it can still handle a respectable 3,500 pounds. That’s enough power to haul a 17-foot camper to your favorite spot outside of Savage.
