2022 Toyota Highlander Review

When shopping for a family SUV, some of the most essential factors are space and efficiency. You want to make sure you have room for all the kids—and a few of their friends, too. That’s why the Highlander comes with seating for up to eight passengers.

With 41.2 inches of headroom in the front, 39.4 inches in the middle, and 36.1 inches in the back, riders in every row will have plenty of room to get comfortable.

If you want to cut down on gas-station stops when driving with the kids, this fuel-efficient SUV has a few excellent options for you. The standard configuration earns an EPA-estimated 21 city and 29 highway MPG.¹ There’s also the available hybrid trim, which offers up to an EPA-estimated 36 city and 35 highway MPG.¹

There are several comfortable interior materials you could try out to see which best suits you. The SofTex®-trimmed seats are sure to help you and your passengers feel right at home. However, there are also available leather-trimmed seats, which will give you a combination of luxury, comfort, and style. Whichever you choose, you’ll have no problem recharging when on the road.

Additionally, the available JBL® audio system comes with Clari-Fi® and 11 speakers to offer a comprehensive experience that everyone—from the front row to the back seats—is sure to appreciate.

If you’re driving around with your family, you’ll want a vehicle that works as hard as you do to keep everyone safe. That’s why the 2022 Highlander comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+. This suite of safety technologies covers a range of features, including:

• Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
• Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
• Lane Departure Alert
• Automatic High Beams
• Road Sign Assist

There are additional available features for you to equip your model wutg, should you want even more protection. For example, the available Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert will keep an eye on those hard-to-view spots to make sure you’re all clear when backing up or changing lanes.

Speaking of backing up, the available Bird’s Eye View Camera with dynamic gridlines will give you a full view of the environment surrounding your vehicle, so you can easily slide into that parallel-parking spot.
