Garage and parking tips
Measure the garage door opening. Toyota.com lists the 2026 Highlander at 68.1 in. high; a roof box or bikes on top add to that.
Allow for the mirrors and the doors. Toyota.com lists a 76.0 in. overall width and does not say whether that includes the mirrors, so leave room for them, for an open door and for walking past.
Check the length against your space. At 194.9 in. (197.4 in. for the XSE), measure from the back wall to the garage door with room to walk around the vehicle.
Plan for the third row. With all three rows up, toyota.com lists 16.0 cu. ft. behind the third row; folding the 60/40 third row opens up 48.4 cu. ft.
