Toyota SUV Lineup: Every Model Compared

Corolla Cross to Sequoia, a Trim-by-Trim Look at Toyota's SUVs Toyota's 2026 SUV lineup covers eleven nameplates, and the names alone can make your head spin. Is a bZ Woodland the same thing as a RAV4 Woodland? Why are there two Highlanders? We sorted the whole lineup by size and purpose so you can skip the guesswork and zero in on the ones that fit your life. Every 2026 RAV4 is now a hybrid or plug-in hybrid, and the Plug-in Hybrid makes 324 horsepower. Three SUVs in the lineup run on battery power alone, and the bZ Woodland leads that group with 375 horsepower. Families who need a third row can pick from the Highlander, Grand Highlander, Sequoia, or a 4Runner with the available third row. How Toyota SUV Models Stack Up by Size Think of the lineup as a ladder. Small, city-friendly crossovers sit on the bottom rungs, two-row family haulers fill the middle, and three-row and body-on-frame rigs sit at the top. Every Toyota SUV in this guide is a 2026 model year. Toyota updates the lineup from year to year, so check the window sticker on any newer unit before you compare figures. Corolla Cross Keeps Costs Down Corolla Cross is the friendliest Toyota SUV on a budget, and it slips into tight parking spots with ease. Gas versions use a 169-horsepower 2.0L four-cylinder with front- or all-wheel drive. Step up to the Corolla Cross Hybrid, and you get 196 combined horsepower, standard all-wheel drive, and a manufacturer-estimated 42 mpg combined. C-HR Puts Electric Fun in a Small Package With its sloped, coupe-like roofline, the C-HR has the sportiest shape of Toyota's three electric SUVs. Both of its trims get standard all-wheel drive and 338 horsepower. bZ and bZ Woodland Bring Two Electric Flavors Think of the bZ as the practical member of Toyota's electric lineup. It comes with front- or all-wheel drive, and dual-motor versions make 338 horsepower. Weekend gravel-road trips call for the bZ Woodland, which adds a tougher look, standard all-wheel drive, and 375 horsepower, the most of Toyota's three electric SUVs. RAV4 Goes All Hybrid for 2026 The RAV4 got a full redesign for 2026, and Toyota dropped the gas-only engine. Hybrid models make 226 horsepower with front-wheel drive or 236 with all-wheel drive across six trims, from the LE up to the Limited. If you want more punch, the RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid puts out 324 combined horsepower with all-wheel drive on all four of its trims, including the first-ever RAV4 GR SPORT. Crown Signia Blends Style and Hybrid Power Sitting in a sweet spot between the RAV4 and the three-row crowd, the Crown Signia is a sleek two-row hybrid with 240 horsepower and standard all-wheel drive. It comes in XLE and Limited trims. Highlander Seats the Whole Crew Shoppers often mix up the two Highlanders. The regular Highlander seats seven or eight and comes with all-wheel drive on every 2026 trim. You can pick a 265-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder or a 243-horsepower hybrid. Grand Highlander Makes Room in Row Three Grand Highlander is the roomier sibling, with an adult-sized third row and up to 97.5 cubic feet of cargo room with the rear seats folded. It offers three powertrains: a turbocharged gas engine, a hybrid, and the 362-horsepower Hybrid MAX. 4Runner Stays Ready for the Trail The 2026 4Runner rides on a body-on-frame chassis and comes in nine grades, from the SR5 up to the TRD Pro and Trailhunter. Its standard turbo engine makes up to 278 horsepower, and the i-FORCE MAX hybrid bumps that to as much as 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. Families who need seven seats can add a third row on the SR5 or on the Limited with the i-FORCE engine. Land Cruiser Keeps It Simple Land Cruiser also uses body-on-frame construction and comes in two trims: the retro-flavored 1958 and the Land Cruiser grade. Both use the 326-horsepower i-FORCE MAX hybrid and full-time four-wheel drive, and both seat five. Sequoia Brings the Most Muscle Sitting at the top of the ladder is the Sequoia. Every trim uses a twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid rated at 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque, the biggest numbers in the lineup. A second-row bench lets it carry eight people, or you can go with captain's chairs and seat seven. SR5 and Limited models offer rear- or four-wheel drive, and the four higher trims come with four-wheel drive. Matching the Right Toyota SUV to Your Week Start with how many seats you fill on a normal day. A Corolla Cross, RAV4, or Crown Signia suits most commuters and couples. Got a growing crew? The Grand Highlander gives you real room in all three rows. Towing a camper or chasing backroads calls for a 4Runner, Land Cruiser, or Sequoia. If you can charge at home, an electric model could keep you away from the gas pump. 2026 Toyota SUV Trims Compared Side by Side Trim Powertrain Net Horsepower Drivetrain 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross, Seats 5 L 2.0L 4-cylinder gas 169 FWD or AWD LE 2.0L 4-cylinder gas 169 FWD or AWD XLE 2.0L 4-cylinder gas 169 FWD or AWD Hybrid S 2.0L hybrid 196 AWD Hybrid SE 2.0L hybrid 196 AWD Hybrid XSE 2.0L hybrid 196 AWD 2026 Toyota C-HR, Seats 5 SE Dual-motor electric 338 AWD XSE Dual-motor electric 338 AWD 2026 Toyota bZ and bZ Woodland, Seats 5 bZ XLE FWD Single-motor electric, smaller battery Not published* FWD bZ XLE FWD Plus Single-motor electric, larger battery 221 FWD bZ XLE AWD Dual-motor electric, larger battery 338 AWD bZ Limited FWD Single-motor electric, larger battery 221 FWD bZ Limited AWD Dual-motor electric, larger battery 338 AWD bZ Woodland Dual-motor electric 375 AWD bZ Woodland Premium Dual-motor electric 375 AWD 2026 Toyota RAV4 and RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid, Seats 5 LE 2.5L hybrid 226 FWD / 236 AWD FWD or AWD SE 2.5L hybrid 226 FWD / 236 AWD FWD or AWD XLE Premium 2.5L hybrid 226 FWD / 236 AWD FWD or AWD Woodland 2.5L hybrid 236 AWD XSE 2.5L hybrid 236 AWD Limited 2.5L hybrid 236 AWD Plug-in Hybrid SE 2.5L plug-in hybrid 324 AWD Plug-in Hybrid Woodland 2.5L plug-in hybrid 324 AWD Plug-in Hybrid XSE 2.5L plug-in hybrid 324 AWD Plug-in Hybrid GR SPORT 2.5L plug-in hybrid 324 AWD 2026 Toyota Crown Signia, Seats 5 XLE 2.5L hybrid 240 AWD Limited 2.5L hybrid 240 AWD 2026 Toyota Highlander, Seats 7 or 8, depending on trim XLE 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 AWD XSE 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 AWD Limited 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 AWD Platinum 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 AWD Hybrid XLE 2.5L hybrid 243 AWD Hybrid Limited 2.5L hybrid 243 AWD Hybrid Platinum 2.5L hybrid 243 AWD 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander, Seats 7 or 8, depending on trim LE 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 FWD or AWD XLE 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 FWD or AWD Limited 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 FWD or AWD Platinum 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder gas 265 AWD Hybrid LE 2.5L hybrid 245 AWD available Hybrid XLE 2.5L hybrid 245 AWD available Hybrid Limited 2.5L hybrid 245 AWD Hybrid Nightshade 2.5L hybrid 245 AWD Hybrid MAX Limited 2.4L turbo Hybrid MAX 362 Full-time AWD Hybrid MAX Platinum 2.4L turbo Hybrid MAX 362 Full-time AWD 2026 Toyota 4Runner, Seats 5, or 7 with the available third row on SR5 and Limited i-FORCE SR5 2.4L turbo i-FORCE Up to 278 RWD or 4WD TRD Sport 2.4L turbo i-FORCE Up to 278 RWD or 4WD TRD Sport Premium 2.4L turbo i-FORCE Up to 278 RWD or 4WD TRD Off-Road i-FORCE or i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 278 / up to 326 4WD TRD Off-Road Premium i-FORCE or i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 278 / up to 326 4WD Limited i-FORCE or i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 278 / up to 326 RWD or 4WD Platinum 2.4L turbo i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 326 Full-time 4WD TRD Pro 2.4L turbo i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 326 4WD Trailhunter 2.4L turbo i-FORCE MAX hybrid Up to 326 4WD 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser, Seats 5 1958 2.4L turbo i-FORCE MAX hybrid 326 Full-time 4WD Land Cruiser 2.4L turbo i-FORCE MAX hybrid 326 Full-time 4WD 2026 Toyota Sequoia, Seats 7 or 8, depending on second-row setup SR5 Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 RWD or 4WD Limited Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 RWD or 4WD Platinum Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 4WD TRD Pro Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 4WD 1794 Edition Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 4WD Capstone Twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX hybrid 437 4WD Horsepower shown is net combined system output for hybrid and electric models. *Toyota hasn't published a horsepower figure for the bZ XLE FWD with the smaller battery.
