2018 Toyota Highlander Loss in Value Case Study (PDF)
More and more buyers looking for a car that can accommodate both passengers and cargo are turning to three-row crossovers instead of minivans. The Toyota Highlander is an option in this class that should be considered. It offers a roomy interior, high-quality construction, efficient engines, as well as a comfortable ride with moderate handling. It won’t thrill the driving enthusiast but should please most others.
It also includes a range of active safety features which will appeal to those who prioritize such systems. Although its in-cabin tech may leave something to be desired for some, it does have the benefit of good value and long-term reliability – features that might be more important for specific shoppers than bells and whistles or tight cornering performance.
A 3.5-liter V-6 engine makes 295 horsepower and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission that makes it easy to shift. In addition to being available with front- or all-wheel drive, the throttle response is sleepy, and the transmission is reluctant to downshift for additional power. Although the Highlander provides competent but uninspired handling, its ride is comfortable and family-friendly, absorbing rough stretches of road easily without affecting passengers too much.
