The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Max Makes Life Easy

I don't have kids, but I can relate to parents eyeing the new Toyota Grand Highlander for its combination of interior space and versatility. In this business, we do all sorts of big tests, from multi-car comparisons to end-of-the-year blowouts. These exercises always require a support vehicle to haul people and things. The best support vehicles are very large and ask very little of their drivers. Typically, the ideal support vehicle is a minivan. They’re great: comfortable haulers of people and things, with sliding doors and a low cargo floor that seem tailor made for capturing car-to-car photography. In a pinch, a big SUV will do the trick too. You can see where this is going. Almost immediately upon getting in the new three-row Toyota Grand Highlander, I realized it'd make it an excellent support car. It's a big and usable rig that fades into the background on a journey, allowing its driver and occupants to focus on the journey at hand. Isn't that what a family vehicle is all about?...
