The Safest, Most Reliable Car I’ve Owned

This Highlander was just what we were looking for; it is spacious throughout the front and back for a comfortable ride and there is maximum cargo space. There is even possible third row seating.

Ample room for a growing family.

The all wheel drive along with its driveability options makes this a well rounded vehicle. Proven with the latest winter storm! Rides high like a SUV should but isn't top heavy! This is my first Toyota bought for my wife and it has me shopping for myself.

Best choice for us

We needed a vehicle with a 3rd row. The Highlanders received excellent reviews on other sites for the interior space, reliability, fuel efficiency, among other features that were important to us. So far, we are incredibly pleased with our decision and know we will have this vehicle for a LONG time. Toyotas run forever and with very few issues. We had a Corolla previously and never had a single issue in the 8 years owned.

Best Mid-size SUV on the market

Outstanding quality you would expect from Toyota. Best SUV we have ever owned. Spacious for a mid-size and great ride for long trips. Perhaps the best Toyota SUV so far.

Great suv experience

Not good on gas as I would have expected. I am a Toyota customer for more than 10 years and this one has higher gas per mile

Toyota is the only car I would consider owning.

Reliability is excellent. I?ve owned a number of Toyota over the years and I keep coming back to purchase another Toyota because of the reliability and the excellent staff that sell and maintain these vehicles.

I will only drive Toyota!

I love everything about this car! The body style and interior, the size, because I can take my family in one vehicle and there?s plenty of room for storage too! It rides like a dream and I love it!

Best car for family

Best car for family with kids because of the perfect size and captains chairs, so kids can get to the 3rd row, even with car seats installed, without flipping seats forward. And Toyota reliability!

This SUV hits all of my check marks and very happy

Did the research and my homework on SUV's in this class and the Toyota Highlander Limited was a great purchase. Great price from Expressway Toyota in Dorchester, MA. Price as advertised and got a great deal. Several of my local dealerships could not touch the price. We are very happy.
