The 2023 Toyota Highlander is a versatile SUV that effortlessly combines a roomy interior, exceptional performance, and impressive fuel efficiency. With space for up to eight passengers, it’s perfect as both an everyday commuter and a highway adventurer.
Power and Versatility
Under the hood of this edition, you’ll find a powerful 2.4-liter turbocharged engine that produces an impressive 265 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. This powertrain not only allows the Highlander to tow up to 5,000 pounds but also delivers quick acceleration when you need it most. It also comes with plenty of fuel-saving benefits, as this engine achieves an estimated 25 mpg in combined city/highway mileage, a rare feat among large SUVs.
For off-road enthusiasts, there’s a sophisticated all-wheel-drive system for conquering harsh terrains, and the available sport-tuned suspension system complements this by lending the vehicle smoother rides. There’s also the Drive Mode Select feature, which allows you to simply push a button to switch into different driving modes, providing sportier driving on highways, improving traction in slippery conditions, and saving fuel as needed.
Comforts and Technology
Climbing into the Highlander’s stylish cabin, you’ll find ultimate comfort in the available leather-trimmed seats with both heating and cooling functions, as well as the tri-zone climate control that can divide the cabin’s ambient air into three separate zones. Extra convenience is offered by the split-folding rear bench seat, which flips down to accommodate cargo, while the power-operable panoramic sunroof can be enjoyed by all.
You and your passengers will certainly appreciate this vehicle’s technology as well, like the Toyota Audio Multimedia System, which offers hands-free control and a large 12.3-inch touchscreen display for controlling your entertainment, phone calls, and more. This system also teams with the convenient in-cabin Wi-Fi hotspot and shows split-screen images of your surroundings when paired with the available Panoramic View Monitor.
Advanced Safety Features
The Highlander’s hi-tech safety features are also worth raving about, with innovative systems like the Automatic High Beams, which can sense lighting changes and readily adapt to them, and Pre-Collision System, a feature that pairs with Pedestrian Detection technology to provide instant notifications if you’re approaching another vehicle or person too quickly.
Then there’s the Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, which offers more than conventional cruise controls by maintaining a safe distance from vehicles in front of you, while Lane Departure Alert works with Steering Assist to keep you centered in your lane should you unintentionally drift away from it.
