High ground with 2016 Highlander
I was torn between Acura MDX and Toyota Hughlander. I thought if I got "luxury" I would be happier....wrong. I drove the Acura for 6 days and traded it in on the Highlander (despite financial loss) I'm so much happier now. I sit up higher and have the feel of a vehicle that I was looking for. The real big for me that I did not catch in my test drive of the Acura was the leg room. I'm 6' and it's absolutely better in the Hughlander. If your a person that sits close to the steering wheel this won't matter. Another plus in the Highlander is the seat. There is a lot more surface area which supports your legs and a lumbar that can extend and give your legs more support for longer drives.
Back window of hatch opens up, not sure what other SUVs can do that. Window shades in the back to help block additional sun out for the kids.
The XLE version does not have the best radio sound (it's not a Bose) but it works fine.
Great power etc, I highly recommend the Highlander!!!!!
