2022 Toyota Highlander XLE 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 8A)
I bought at the worst possible time in early 2022. I paid $3500 OVER sticker thanks to an added "up-charge" due to supply and demand issues. (All dealers are doing this, not just Toyota). My minivan was totaled and I needed something ASAP. My 2022 XLE with XP package is absolutely gorgeous with 20 inch gloss black rims, performance tires, blacked-out emblems, and running boards (perfect … for kids, older folks and the otherwise vertically challenged). Very roomy and comfortable for four adults or families with 2 or 3 kids. I have the 2nd row bench seat which offers maximum seating space. The rear captain’s chairs are nice but Toyota put drink holders in between the seats instead of incorporating them into the rear of the driver’s console. This limits storage space between the seats (was a perfect spot for a cooler in my minivan) and limits accessibility to the third row. I wouldn’t depend on the 3rd row for daily use. It’s undersized and tricky to access but that’s not an issue for us. Folded flat, it offers a ton of easily accessible rear storage space. Cargo space is otherwise pretty limited if 3rd row seat is in use. One problem is the button to close the back gate is located on the bottom of the tailgate. This makes it impossible to reach for anyone under 5’2” so kids will need the assistance of an adult (XLE and lower models, higher models have hands-free power liftgate). It’s loaded with safety features thanks to the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS 2.5+) that comes standard. Perfect for inexperienced or otherwise safety-challenged drivers but features can be disabled. Through the Toyota app, I can monitor driver behavior and location when someone else is using the car. I can even set up “guest driver” restrictions like speed and distance. I really love the way it drives! The ride is smooth, quiet, and comfortable with a luxury feel. For a mid-sized SUV, the turning radius is small, making u-turns and sharp or tight corners a breeze. Steering is very responsive making it easy to maneuver through city traffic and park in tricky spaces. And it is quite fast! Even in the Eco driving mode which adds 2 mpg. Gas mileage is amazing at 21 city/ 29 highway (my much slower minivan averaged 18 mpg). As another reviewer mentioned, the back window is quite small, making rear visibility poor. And the rear seat headrests are in the way which is frustrating. The pros more than make up for the very few cons. Additional features include a wireless charger, 14 cup holders, sunroof/moonroof, heated and power front seats, multiple Usb-A and C ports, and rear sunshades.
