Great vehicle, poor tech package

Great vehicle to drive, poor technology! Simply love the car, but the technology almost makes me wish I hadn’t purchased it. My 2008 Acura has better technology than the 2018 highlander. GPS is cluncky and hard to use, the clock isn’t even connected to the computer in the car. It is an old school digital clock that needs to be reset almost weekly to match my cell phone. Imagine, you think your on time, but YOUR NOT!

Still learning

We changed from a large SUV to Highlander, still trying to adjust to small size. Rides good handles good, lots of pickup which surprised me. Technology on it is really more than I need. We are still trying to learn all the functions it has. Our prior SUV had the temp and compass indicators on rear view mirror, I wish the Toyota had it there.

Learning curve

Still getting used to differences from other older cars. Some new items not as good as older ones Temperature hard to find for passengers. No side option for window visor. Smooth ride, great mileage.

2018 Toyota Highlander

I like this car alot. ther are a cuple of things that I don't like First is the gas mileage. I was told I could expect to get 20 to 21 MPG, I have never goten more then 14.8. Second is the nav system, it is far inferior to my TomTom. It dos not let me know when there are speed or trafic light camers, the instructions can be hard to follow. It has often sent me in the wrong direction. It dose not alow form updates to the map. the voice and display are not costomisabel .

Nearly about right.

It’s comfortable quiet and easy to drive. However the lack of a digital speedo on this top of the line SUV is a major omission. It also would be no ego have a better clock. The cargo cover is poorly designed and awkward. Worst of all is the spare wheel slung underneath. Who thought that was a driver friendly idea??

Nice car

Rides nice. But noisier than expect in highway traffic. Compass reading and temperature are head to find somddtime. Cruise contol is great especially contolling speed behind other cars in traffic. Might trade it in.

It's not a luxury SUV (???)

Limited Platinum 2018. Love the features, safety & convenience options. And, I don't care that the third row is only usable by very small people since I can fold them flat for Costco runs. Ruby's my urban, permanently covered pickup, tge one that doesn't decorate the freeways with Kirkland toilet paper out of the bed. 'Only issue is hesitation when stomping on the gas. Then it's quick. Otherwise, feels very roomy, which doesn't make any sense when l look at other contemporary Highlanders on the road - they look smallish. Compared with my wife's "luxury" SUV, I'm so happy I bought Ruby! Meanwhile, after I explain that the mirrors don't automatically fold in, I just say, "Well, it's not a luxury SUV."

2018 Toyota Highlander

I really like the 2018 Toyota Highlander we purchased. The comfort is great. Wasn't too sure after having a Yukon Denali if the Highlander would be roomy enough, definitely roomy enough and actually more comfortable. The power seems enough to do everything that I need it to, highway and freeway driving. My one complaint is a very minor one. The lift gate is slow to open and close. A little bit picky I know but it's the only thing I've discovered so far. Plenty of seating for all my grandchildren.

Disappointed

Bought it because of high dependability. Some good things but some things hard to find and use. Headlight switch hard to find at night. Very noisy on highway driving which made it hard to have conversations

Performance

The Highlander is a very comfortable car. I don't like the delay when I step on the accelerator pedal. Also, the side view mirror are very big making it hard to turn left because it's in the way of my view sight.

Not as good as expected

Bought this car because of the high reliability rating. Think I was sold more car than needed, some nice features but we don't use but a few. Costly to repair 2 minor interior items. Next time look at Honda

Love my highlander!

Super happy with our hybrid highlander purchase. The drive is really smooth and so quiet that I feel like sometimes the car isn’t even on! Music sounds great, interior design is beautiful and so so spacious.

Best service ever!

No pressure! Expert help! Pleasant environment! Overall Rating 5/5Overall Rating 5/5Overall Rating 5/5Overall Rating 5/5Overall Rating 5/5 “Safety first” was the main reason why my husband And I chose a Toyota Highlander Limited Platinum. They have a great safety rating. The other HUGE factor was the “quietness” while riding in the car. For many years we could never have a conversation without having to talk so loudly or almost yell to be heard in our older car. Also the road and engine noise in the old car could induce a headache after several hours on the road. NOT SO with the new Highlander Limited Platinum. I was rarely able to take long trips by myself, in the older car, as it did not have a spare tire. My Highlander is loaded to the max! It has heated seats and heated steering wheel, a navigation system, tinted windows, cargo cover, and so many more wonderful options. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is incredible. Nothing has been left out or short changed. Miguel Garcia was the BEST CAR SALESMAN we have ever encountered. There was no pressure. He answered all of my “50” questions without making me/us feel ignorant. He was a perfect gentleman, very professional, knows his product, and never rushed us or pushed to make a decision one way or,the other . When I returned a day later with a couple more questions he readily assisted us. I highly recommend him. I appreciated that the SALES REP desks were out front and open, yet private. You could not hear another SALES REP and their clients conversations. I appreciated being able to see my SALES REP getting his information at the front counter where you could see them. In the past SALES REPS would go in a back room where I always wondered what they were doing “behind closed doors, and where they were no where to be seen” while they chatted with a supervisor. That kind of behavior always made me feel they were hiding something. I appreciate the new system. Wyatt Gones was our SERVICE representative. He was instrumental in getting our Highlander in promptly (the day after we purchased it) for the protective Zurich coating we wanted applied on the exterior and interior of the car to maintain its quality and integrity. He made sure the other “add on’s” that we purchased would be installed during that appointment to prevent an additional trip. Wyatt was kind, patient, professional, and very efficient. Chad in PARTS was on duty to help us make the correct snow chain purchase to fit our specific tires. He reviewed the product and encouraged us to watch the dealers you tube video for a refresher on how to apply this new style of snow chains. He was very cheerful, helpful, and once again, thoroughly knows his product. This makes a trip to the parts department reassuring! He also has a plethora of products to choose from in his department. What did I notice at this dealership ? It was:that all of the employees were obviously happy with whatever job they were doing. No one was disgruntled. They all wore smiles. Initially I was not too thrilled to go “car shopping”, due to previous experiences at other car dealerships, but this was the BEST car purchasing experience I/we have ever had. I highly recommend this dealership and it’s employees. You won’t be disappointed. Juliana

Meets all expectations

For many considering all the available vehicles for all wheel drive with comfort, quiet, solid ride and even refinements on par with luxury models costing much more, Toyota has produced an exceptional vehicle. Based from a truck platform, the Highlander rides more like a car in quiet comfort. But the V6 and large tires tell the driver that it’s a perfectly capable SUV though the Lim is more refined than its counter part SUV the 4Runner. This SUV even out shines the models from Lexus in its blending of the right comfort features in the cabin, without sacrificing its road and off road SUV abilities. I can’t wait to get it into the snow and in the mountains!!

Highlander XLE

The vehicle is quiet and very responsive. The extra safety features are state of the art. Watch the quality of tires, ask what ply they are, and what ply is advisable. They come with lower quality tires.

Best car I have ever owned

Every safety, comfort, and driving feature I could ask for is built into this car. The support of the Toyota family is amazing and the price to value is phenomenal. The third row seats offer more than enough room for my two car seats, dogs, and additional passengers. The latest technology provides music, navigation and all the apps I could think of.

Quiet comfortable vehicle

This is our third highlander. They new safety features such as pre collision braking, blind spot monitoring, dynamic cruise control, back up traffic alert, lane departure alert and steering assist make this our safest to drive vehicle we have had.

Highlander

Not only does this vehicle provide spacious room, it is the better alternative to a min-van! Its also incredibly comfortable and accomodating to wider hips. Love how easy it handles and the many, many safety features it has! Its perfect for people who tend to hug the center line because the moment you do- it beeps at you! so you'll be trained in no time! Love love love that it informs you if there is an object in your blind spots. Not only does the mirrors light up, it also chimes! Safe yourself the hassle and see your local Toyota dealership! They will take excellent care of you!

Toyota Highlander Hybrid

Wow, there are a lot of bells and whistles on this vehicle, that make it safe and a pleasure to drive. I was overwhelmed at first but spent an few minutes with a sales person in "question, show and tell" mode and its a snap.
