Additional Notes
- The Toyota Highlander (EU) 2.5 Hybrid AWD carries a rear electric drive differential fluid capacity of 1.7 liters, which is a relatively modest volume consistent with the compact nature of electrically driven rear axle units compared to conventional mechanical differentials.
- The 1.7-liter capacity figure applies under normal use conditions, meaning the specification reflects standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as towing, off-road use, or extreme temperature exposure.
- The 2020-2021 model years share the same 1.7-liter rear differential capacity, indicating no revision to the fluid volume specification occurred within that production window.
- A rear electric drive differential, as noted in the specifications, is a unit driven by an electric motor rather than a mechanical driveshaft, and the 1.7-liter fill capacity applies specifically to that assembly rather than any front or center differential component.
