Mature and taking hits from the competition

I drive different vehicles every week as a business traveler. This gives me a chance to evaluate the entire spectrum of competition from the Ford Explorer, GMC Acadia, Chevrolet Traverse, Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, Honda, Acura.... Toyota is falling behind in drivetrain and acceleration performance pretty quickly with 9 speed automatic GM product with 300+HP. Lack of Apple Car Play is another area of trouble as it’s simply a joke to try to use Entune. But—in the end, the Highlander is total product quality and reliability that drove me to the lot to buy one. I like my 2016 Highlander Limited and it’s a long-term keeper.

Reliable, luxurious but underpowered

Toyota builds a great product. Unfortunately so does the reset of the world and that’s going to bite Toyota in its hindquarters. When weight and size goes up, power is much needed to bridge the gap. Even the 2017 with direct injection and additional gears in the automatic, performance is only mid-pack. I also wish I could see better highway mileage but the frontal area and weight are just too much to ask for that. I’m getting 19.7 average and would like to see low 20’s but it just isn’t going to happen.

2016 Highlander

Excellent vehicle: acceleration is great, and the seats are comfortable. Plenty of room in the second row for two above average height teenagers. Third row is small though. My only gripe is with Entune, which doesn’t integrate well with my cell phone. I’ll probably swap out the radio.

My Highlander

LOVE THIS CAR! Great ride, roomy for my kids who will both be 6 feet tall. Gas mileage is passable, not great, but it's an SUV, so that's expected. Sturdily built, you feel like you're in a comfortable cocoon. The thing that’s a definite loss is the entertainment system. The navigation app looks old, and connecting my phone is not what one would expect from a vehicle in 2016. The wind noise at high speeds is annoying. Still, would I recommend this vehicle? Yes!

Great car for ski trips

This car has made annual trips from Seattle to Steamboat across the winter wasteland of Oregon, Idaho and Wyoming, plus annual trips to the Purcell Mountains in BC. With a good set of winter tires, it's unstoppable. The best part is that the steering gives good road feel, so that you know when things get slippery because the wheel feels very light! My main complaint is that the fuel economy is marginal compared to other vehicles I considered.
