Toyota Launches Must-Have Highlander Lease Offer for July originally appeared on Autoblog.
A midsize SUV with a downsized monthly cost
The Toyota Highlander has long been a go-to for families who want three rows of seating without the bulk of a full-size SUV. It’s smooth, comfortable, and loaded with safety features. Now, thanks to a strong lease offer for July, it’s more accessible than it’s been in months.
For drivers looking to upgrade to a new family hauler—or downsize from something larger without sacrificing capability—the Highlander’s current lease terms might be enough to nudge you toward the dealership. Toyota’s midsize SUV combines practicality with an upscale feel, and this summer, it might just be one of the best lease values out there.
Here’s the deal on the Highlander lease
Toyota is offering a 36-month lease on the 2025 Highlander XLE for $499 per month with $3,999 due at signing. That offer applies to the front-wheel-drive model and runs through August 4. ToyotaCare—Toyota’s two-year, 25,000-mile maintenance plan—also comes standard, covering routine service like oil changes and tire rotations.
2025 Toyota HighlanderToyotaWhile $3,999 due at signing isn’t insignificant, it’s not unusual in today’s lease market, especially for a well-equipped midsize SUV. Given the Highlander’s long-standing reputation for reliability and high resale value, the overall cost of ownership still leans in your favor.
The XLE trim strikes a strong balance between price and features. You get heated front seats, a power moonroof, synthetic leather upholstery, a large touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus Toyota’s full suite of advanced driver-assistance features. It’s a configuration that feels upscale without being over-the-top.
Comfort, utility, and a smooth ride
The Highlander’s biggest strength might be how well it does everything. There’s room for up to eight passengers depending on how you spec it, and the second-row captain’s chairs are especially nice if you’re frequently hauling kids or carpooling. Cargo space behind the third row is a bit tight, but fold down the seats and you get a generous flat load floor.
2025 Toyota HighlanderToyotaPower comes from a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine making 265 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. It’s more than enough grunt for daily driving, and the Highlander remains composed and comfortable on the highway.
Front-wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is available on the XLE for buyers in snow-prone regions or those who plan to do light towing or camping. With AWD and the right towing package, the Highlander can pull up to 5,000 pounds—enough for a small trailer, jet skis, or a lightweight camper.
Final thoughts
Toyota’s July lease deal makes the Highlander XLE a standout in the midsize SUV segment. At $499 per month, it undercuts some competitors while offering more standard features and a smoother ride. The Highlander has always been a smart buy, but this summer, it might be an even smarter lease.

And with ToyotaCare bundled in, you’ll save money on maintenance while enjoying one of the most well-rounded family crossovers on the road.
