Used 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Consumer Reviews
I like this Car
I love SUVs and I am really glad they came up with a fuel efficient one. it saves the economy, gas, and also my pocketbook
HIghlander Hybrid
This is a very well built SUV, that should provide excellent reliability, It is an excellent vehicle, but it is not a powerful SUV as one might expect in a BMW X5. Nevertheless because of the combined gas and electric engines it does provide more power than the standard gas Highlander. The gas mileage is not close to the EPA estimates, however, it does get about 25 MPG overall which is excellent for an SUV of this size.

SUV Hybrid Experience
I have driven over 3000 miles on our Hybrid Highlander and to date my overall experience with the car has been excellent. I do mostly highway driving and have been averaging around 27 mpg. The acceleration is great and recently on a long trip with the car fully loaded, got great gas mileage and the increased horsepower made for great interstate highway traveling. I had previously owned two volvo wagons (last one was 2000 cross country AWD) and the Highlander Hybrid leaves nothing to be desired compared to the volvo. All the same comforts and more. Never thought I would use the navigation system, but you realize how useful it can be once you use it(especially on vacations).
It's awesome !
Everyone tried to talk me out of it, but now they all want one ! I love it. I know it is a necessary step in the right direction toward saving our own environment. The navigation system is a real blessing. It has all the "bells and whistles" of the more costly Lexus, for a lot less.
A good family vehicle
We mainly purchased the Highlander Hybrid to try the new technology and better gas mileage than convential SUV. Acceleration is the most part I'd like about this car. It is feeling good to know that when braking the battery pack is being charged instead of wasting kinetic energy. So far we are happy with our decision to buy this vehilce. We anticipate Toyota good reliability many years to come. Thanks Toyota to help keep air clean to breathe.
