As an upgraded model of the era, the new car has not changed much in appearance and power. The length, width and height of the new car are still 4965/1930/1750mm, and the wheelbase is still 2850mm. It also provides 5-seat and 7-seat layouts. In terms of appearance, the only obvious change is that the rear label of the dual-engine version has been changed from "Hybrid" to "HEV".
The newly added ivory white stylish interior is paired with high-grade perforated NAPPA leather seats to enhance driving comfort. At the same time, in order to facilitate rear passengers, the new car is also equipped with a co-pilot boss key for easy use. In addition, in order to provide users with a quiet and comfortable mobile travel space, the 2024 Highlander will upgrade 17 sound insulation materials in five major parts of the vehicle, and the sound insulation material and thickness have been greatly improved. From the addition and upgrade of materials to the optimization of design, every improvement reflects the 2024 Highlander's ultimate pursuit of details.
In terms of power, the 2024 Highlander Intelligent Hybrid Dual Engine is equipped with a 2.5L Atkinson cycle engine. Because it is a hybrid-specific model code-named A25D, after increasing the compression ratio through the Atkinson cycle, it has better fuel economy than fuel vehicles under stable working conditions.
Equipped with the fourth-generation THS dual-motor unit, the system has a total power of 181kW. Mid-to-high-end models are also equipped with a rear axle motor, which can provide an additional 40kW of maximum power output, and supports the DTV dynamic torque vector control system (hybrid electric four-wheel drive). The WLTC comprehensive working condition fuel consumption is 5.82-5.97L/100km.
