Interesting observation is that before the 2027 EV launch of this Highlander, Toyota used to have the 2 row Highlander and then you paid more for the 3 row Grand Highlander. One Highlander to replace two and yet dealerships here in the PNW have raised prices on the few remaining Grand Highlanders for those that want a Gas-powered Hybrid over EV. I have some family friends who were planning to get a Grand Highlander later this year and are now moving up their timeline as they are not comfortable to go EV yet even with the rang that the 2027 Highlander has. One benefit is that Toyota has NOT really changed the Grand Highlander for the last 3 years, so buying a certified used with low miles does save over taking the depreciation hit. Interesting observation is that in the PNW, I find plenty of 2026 and 2025 already certified used with miles of 1,000 to 13,000 miles as about a $20,000 discount which is very interesting to me and makes me wonder what the real story is on these used certified models. -

This Munro break down of Kia EV9 motors confirms why it is now to me the BEST EV out there. BMW has choosen to go complex with multiple motors to do what Kia is doing with one. https://www.emobility-engineering.com/bmw-gen6-two-motor-800v-edrive-cylindrical-battery/ Mercedes is following Porsche with a gear box and a much less efficient electric motor imho. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mercedes-Benz-EQE-and-EQS-EVs-rumoured-to-get-800v-refresh-with-in-house-motors-and-two-speed-gearbox-in-2025.742727.0.html -
