That remains the LE trim, which now has a starting price of $40,970 for 2025.

While the sporty XSE and top-of-the-line Platinum do see a large price increase, it, the XLE ($44,120), and the Limited ($48,225) do not.

The Highlander Hybrid features a smaller range of trim choices. Along with the mentioned XLE, the Limited and Platinum are now priced at $51,925 and $55,125, respectively.
