Experience the Future of Family Adventure in Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge
The landscape of the Fraser Valley is changing, and West Coast Toyota is leading the charge. We are thrilled to introduce the next-generation 2027 Toyota Highlander—Toyota’s first-ever three-row Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV). Designed for the modern family that refuses to compromise on style, space, or sustainability, the 2027 Highlander reimagines what an SUV can be.
Whether you are navigating the morning school run in Maple Ridge or heading out for a weekend at Golden Ears Provincial Park, the 2027 Highlander delivers a whisper-quiet ride with zero emissions.
Electrifying Performance for the West Coast Lifestyle
Built on a modified TNGA-K platform, the 2027 Highlander is engineered for the diverse terrain of British Columbia. With an available 95.8-kWh battery, the Highlander offers a Manufacturer-estimated driving range of up to 511 km. That is more than enough to get you from Pitt Meadows to Whistler and back without a second thought.
For those who need extra confidence during our wet West Coast winters, the Electronic All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models deliver a powerful 338 combined system horsepower and 323 lb.-ft. of torque. Plus, with Multi-Terrain Select and Crawl Control, the Highlander is as capable on a gravel trail as it is on the Lougheed Highway.
A Sanctuary for Seven
Inside, the Highlander offers a "Best Experience Vehicle" philosophy. The cabin has been widened and lengthened, providing ample room for up to seven passengers. Families in the Pitt Meadows area will appreciate the 1,290 litres of rear cargo space (with the third row folded flat)—perfect for hockey gear, groceries, or camping equipment.
The tech-forward interior features a massive 14-inch Toyota Multimedia touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™. Stay connected with 5G connectivity and keep everyone’s devices charged with USB-C ports in every single row.
Innovative Power: Vehicle-to-Load (V2L)
In a first for Toyota in North America, the 2027 Highlander features Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology. This allows your Highlander to act as a mobile power bank. Imagine powering your campsite appliances during a trip to Alouette Lake or using your vehicle as a backup power source for your home during an unexpected winter storm. (Note: Bi-directional accessories are required).
Safety Without Compromise
Your family’s safety is our priority. Every 2027 Highlander comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 (TSS 4.0). This latest suite includes enhanced Pedestrian Detection, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Proactive Driving Assist, ensuring peace of mind on every journey through the lower mainland.
