The Family-Friendly Highlander

The Toyota Highlander has soundly secured its place in the midsize SUV market thanks to its abundant space and safety, and it balances those family-friendly features with impressive performance on streets and highways. For 2020, the Highlander enters its fourth generation, and it now comes with an even longer list of technology features thanks to a thoughtful redesign. Smartphone integration is now standard through Apple CarPlay^TM and Android Auto^TM, and the Toyota Safety Sense^TM suite keeps everyone onboard safe from the unpredictable hazards of the road.

The 2020 Highlander is available in five trim levels:

• L
• LE
• XLE
• Limited
• Platinum

The L and LE trims seat eight with a middle-row bench seat, and the XLE, Limited, and Premium trims come with supportive captain’s chairs. All trim levels come with smartphone connectivity. The upper trims sport leather interiors, and they also offer available features like a JBL sound system and a Wi-Fi hotspot.

We welcome you to come by our dealership to take this fine family vehicle for a test drive. We’ll also go through your wish list to find all the features that you really want in your next Toyota.

Interior Review of the 2020 Highlander

The Highlander’s family appeal is apparent as soon as you open the doors. Its spacious interior can easily accommodate eight passengers. All three rows promise generous legroom and overhead space, and you can substitute the middle-row bench seats for captain’s chairs in the upper trim levels. Families will also find connections for securing car seats in the passenger rows. All the standard materials are high-quality and comfortable, while you can climb the trim range for handsome interior upgrades like rich leather upholstery, an expanded touchscreen, and a striking two-tone interior. Tri-zone climate control maintains comfort in any season, and the infotainment system comes with a variety of standard features like SiriusXM, Android Auto^TM, Amazon Alexa, Apple CarPlay^TM, and more.

The Highlander also offers all the storage space you need for any scenario, from bringing home a week’s stock of groceries to a full vacation’s worth of travel gear. Behind the third row, the SUV provides over 16 cubic feet for cargo. If you fold that row flat, you expand that area to 40.6 cubic feet. If you fold both the second and third row, the Highlander presents a maximum of 73.3 cubic feet for storage.
