Toyota Teases New 3-Row's Cabin; Sure Seems Like an EV

We'll know a whole lot more about Toyota's latest SUV next week.

Toyota began the week with another tease of its new mystery vehicle. Last week we saw the tail, and now we're getting a peek at the cabin.

This latest teaser confirms a few new aspects. For starters, this is another three-row SUV as the way-back frames the photo, which we've lightened to show detail above. We also see a large glass-panel roof, a two-tone cabin design with lots of indirect ambient lighting, and a pared-back center console design (that isn't quite closed). It may look like stadium-style seating at first glance, but the front row appears to be reclined to show the dashboard more clearly—hey, it's how AutoGuide takes our interior photos, too!

There's a tiny but important detail on the new center touchscreen however, which looks similar to the excellent new setup in the 2026 RAV4. It's a little pixelated, but that sure looks like a range estimate and battery state-of-charge icon, no?

It makes a certain amount of sense for Toyota to hop into the three-row EV scene. Even if America is moving backwards on EVs as a whole, the rest of the world isn't, and competitors like Kia and Hyundai have made some seriously impressive machines already. The big questions are how will it be priced, and what name will it adopt? As we pointed out with the last teaser, the current Highlander is the oldest SUV in Toyota's vast high-rider lineup; if that's what this is, it reframes the model in a different segment, successfully distancing it from the Grand Highlander. We'll find out in a little over a week.
