The new Highlander EV features completely redesigned styling, a grille-less front fascia, a full-width LED light bar, wider proportions, and an extended wheelbase to accommodate its battery platform. Inside, it gets a major tech upgrade with a 12.3-inch digital driver display, a massive 14-inch infotainment screen, 5G connectivity, built-in dashcam functionality, and improved storage solutions.

Powertrain options include a 221-hp front-wheel-drive setup or a 338-hp dual-motor all-wheel-drive configuration.
