One of the standard bearers of the midsize SUV class, the 2023 Toyota Highlander boasts a comfortable and quiet ride, plentiful features and good mpg. The biggest downsides are its tight third-row seating area and lack of cargo space when the third row is up.

Most notably, Toyota has dropped the Highlander's previous V6 engine in favor of a new turbocharged four-cylinder. It's down on horsepower compared to its predecessor but makes more torque. The new engine feels more substantial than you'd expect from a smaller four-cylinder engine in a vehicle this large. The new four-cylinder engine also gets slightly higher EPA-estimated fuel economy than the old V6, helping to make this one of more fuel-efficient three-rows on the market.
Inside, the digital information display on the Limited and Platinum trim levels grows from 7 inches to 12.3 inches, matching the size of the central touchscreen on those trims. The 12.3-inch touchscreen is now optional on the midtier XLE and XSE, allowing more price-conscious shoppers to upgrade the infotainment system if they want. Those models also get the hands-free liftgate that used to come standard on more expensive levels. Finally, wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto comes standard across the lineup.
Overall, the 2023 Highlander is a likable SUV and is competitive with other top models such as the Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade, Kia Telluride and Volkswagen Atlas. You should also consider the Highlander Hybrid, which is covered in a separate review on Edmunds. Check out our test team's Expert Rating below to learn more about this year's updated Highlander.

out of 10
We drove the 2023 Toyota Highlander on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
8/10
How does the Highlander drive? The latest Highlander has a turbocharged four-cylinder engine instead of the long-running V6. Well, color us impressed because we don't miss the V6. The four-cylinder makes plenty of torque at low rpm, and that helps make the Highlander pleasant to drive around town. At the Edmunds test track, our all-wheel-drive Highlander accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds, which is a bit quicker than most V6-equipped three-row midsize SUVs.
The Highlander's ability to stop quickly and confidently as well as negotiate a twisty road is solid. Body roll is controlled as you go around turns, and the available torque-vectoring AWD system also helps by applying engine power to individual rear wheels to subtly enhance the SUV's handling balance. (It also has the usual benefit of extra traction in slick conditions.) All of this advanced technology helps the Highlander feel more nimble than the average midsize SUV. Overall, the Highlander makes daily driving a low-effort activity, which is most important.

Overall, the Highlander makes daily driving a low-effort activity, which is most important.
Comfort
8/10
How comfortable is the Highlander? The Highlander's ride quality is pleasantly plush. Large and small road imperfections are smoothed over thanks to the compliant suspension, yet it avoids feeling floaty or vague at higher speeds. The front seats are comfortable even on long drives, and the available second-row captain's chairs (which our test Highlander had) provide nearly the same level of comfort. Alas, the third-row seats are one of the Highlander's greatest liabilities. Thin padding, a narrow space and a cushion mounted low to the floor make the third row ill-suited for adults.
The climate controls are easy to use, and the standard tri-zone system provides ample heating and cooling capacity, which helps make up for the mildly effective seat heat and ventilation. The only area we think the four-cylinder falls short of the V6 is sound. You don't really hear much of it when cruising along, but a request for substantial acceleration reveals the four-cylinder's less refined soundtrack. Otherwise, our complaints are few. There are no vibrations, squeaks or wind noise to speak of, even at higher highway speeds. Road noise is minimal.

There are no vibrations, squeaks or wind noise to speak of, even at higher highway speeds. Road noise is minimal.
Interior
8/10
How’s the interior? The first and second seating rows provide ample space, but the third row is one of the most confining in the midsize three-row SUV class. If you're planning on regularly using the full passenger capacity, you will be better served by the Kia Telluride or Volkswagen Atlas. Once you're seated, it's easy to find your preferred driving position, but taller drivers might wish for a bit more extension range from the telescoping steering wheel. It can be a bit of a reach.
We give the Highlander high marks for outward visibility. The front roof pillars are thin, helping you see around turns. Some of the Highlander's available technology features help too, such as the camera-based rearview mirror that allows you to see out the back even if you've fully loaded up the cargo area. The available surround-view camera system is sharp and can be rotated to look around the vehicle. On the downside, some of the menus for the infotainment system and instrument cluster can be somewhat confusing.

On the downside, some of the menus for the infotainment system and instrument cluster can be somewhat confusing.
Technology
8/10
How’s the tech? Toyota used to trail other manufacturers when it comes to tech but the current Highlander has made big strides in the right direction. The optional 12.3-inch touchscreen is huge (an 8-inch screen is standard) and it responds quickly to inputs, but occasionally the reflections on the surface make using it more difficult than it should be. The latest Toyota software looks more modern too. Our Highlander test vehicle had five USB charge ports for the first and second rows but none for the third row.
All Highlanders come standard with a comprehensive suite of advanced driver aids, which is something not all competitors offer. Among other things, we like the adaptive cruise control, but we found the lane departure warning slightly too sensitive in the standard mode and not sensitive enough in the low mode.

Among other things, we like the adaptive cruise control, but we found the lane departure warning slightly too sensitive in the standard mode and not sensitive enough in the low mode.
Storage
7.5/10
How’s the storage? Cargo space is a bit of a mixed bag with the Highlander. Behind the third row, there's only 16 cubic feet of space, which is small for the class. Behind the second row, it expands to a better-than-average 48.4 cubic feet. The liftover height is about average for a midsize SUV and both back rows can be folded for a flat load surface. As for cabin storage, there are good-size pockets and cupholders as well as two shelves built into the dash (one has a clever phone cable keeper too).
Got kids? A large rear-facing car seat will easily be accommodated in the second row thanks to the generous amount of fore/aft movement of the available captain's chairs. The car seat anchors are also easy to locate and access for all types of child safety seats, though there are no anchors in the third row.

Fuel Economy
8.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? The four-cylinder Highlander is pretty fuel-efficient. We tested an all-wheel-drive model, which the EPA estimates will get 24 mpg in combined city/highway driving. (Front-wheel-drive models are slightly better at 25 mpg combined.) A few mpg may not seem like a huge advantage over the competition, but it's significant for this class of vehicle. On our real-world evaluation route, we achieved 26.6 mpg, which is pretty stellar and indicates to us the EPA's estimates should be achievable. Of note, the Highlander Hybrid is estimated to return 36 mpg combined.
Value
8/10
Is the Highlander a good value? Though the Highlander isn't the most premium-feeling SUV in the class, the interior is solidly put together with soft, padded surfaces where they matter most. There's good value here, too, whether you're cross-shopping against a Kia Telluride (especially given the typical markups for those) or the popular Honda Pilot, which isn't quite as strong a value these days.
Toyota's warranty coverage is pretty common for the class with three years/36,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and five years/60,000 miles for the powertrain. The first two years of scheduled maintenance are also free.

Wildcard
8/10
The styling up front gives the Highlander a sporty appearance, which looks cool but also maybe oversells athleticism. Still, the Highlander has better than average composure on a twisty road for a midsize three-row SUV, which may be all the fun someone shopping this category needs.
2023 Toyota Highlander trim level differences
The Toyota Highlander is a midsize three-row SUV with seating for up to eight passengers, and for 2023, it's offered in six trim levels: L, LE, XLE, XSE, Limited and Platinum. Midgrade trims and above swap the second-row bench for captain's chairs, reducing seating capacity to seven. All models are powered by a turbocharged 2.4-liter engine that produces 265 horsepower and 309 lb-ft of torque, and it's mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. All-wheel drive is available on all trims as an option. There's also a Highlander Hybrid that we review separately on Edmunds.
Which Highlander trim does Edmunds recommend?
The midrange XLE trim gets our recommendation for its balance of price versus features. For a reasonable premium over the supporting trims, you get several niceties such as heated front seats, faux leather upholstery, second-row sunshades and a wireless charging pad. It also comes with second-row captain's chairs, but you can swap them out for a three-seat bench as a no-cost option.

Love the vehicle, Infotainment is unusable
2 out of 5 starsbbells, 04/16/2023
2023 Toyota Highlander LE 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
Love the gas mileage, 30+mpg in eco mode. Towing capacity. Comfort. Nice vehicle except the "drive connect" app advertisement makes the entertainment system unusable. It will lock up the system for 1 to 10 minutes so no music, no google maps, no phone, nothing, until it decides to clear itself. Toyota says you can pay $200 a year to remove the advertisement by subscribing to drive … connect. This makes it the definition of ransomware. But there is nothing in the app I need or want. Neither ToyotaUSA, their tech department, or the dealer can fix it. I will either be selling the vehicle or replacing the entertainment system when the free trial of drive connect ends in a couple months. For those of us who use their phone for maps, texts or communication the system makes the vehicle unusable. Update: Can't put in different infotainment system, it is integrated into the vehicle. Toyota gave me a free trial of drive connect. Unfortunately anytime i am in an area without internet the display is locked up asking for a password. Can't enter a password until i get into an internet area, then go s back to asking for a password when i leave it. Worthless and unusable. Toyota wouldn't fix it. After 7 months they bought it back from me. Last Toyota.
Rattling noise from moonroof

2023 Toyota Highlander Limited 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
A month after driving the new 2023 highlander limited, rattling noise is consistent (seems to be from moon roof's centre panel). The noise is similar to having a cart go over a pebble road. Reported to the service department and waiting to hear back if similar complaints are received.
The 2.4 litre engine doesn't save any more on gas as opposed to our traded in 2017 3.5 litre engine … Highlander Limited. Disappointed on both issues.

2023 Toyota Highlander XLE 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
Replaced our 2011 highlander with a brand new 2023 highlander . The 2023 comes only with a four cylinder turbocharged engine . It’s awful ! Our 2011 had the v6 engine that was smooth and quiet . This engine is noisy and hesitates and bucks when accelerating from a stop . We didn’t notice a problem for the first few thousand miles but it’s got one now . Dealer says a fix is coming . Well … it’s got 10,000 miles on it and it ain’t fixed yet . We have three Toyotas , tundra , Tacoma and this hunk a junk . Have always had the utmost confidence in Toyota but I’m afraid they are heading in the wrong direction with these green engines . We have traded this 2023 for a 2022 xse highlander with the v6 . No comparison ! Smooth as butter . Took a loss thanks to Toyota for making us a Guinea pig .
Bad car

2023 Toyota Highlander Limited 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
I always thought that Toyotas are good cars. Not anymore.
1. Rattles everywhere. From dash, from door, from the back.
2. Very noisy, on any road worse than perfect, noise from the road. On speed over 60 constant wind noise ( this I could not catch during test drive, as in traffic couldn’t drive more than 50).
3. On sunny days digital panel washes out- when i was testing car was … cloudy:(
One year update: all negatives remained of course, however, roomy car, pretty economical- 27-28 mpg on freeway, made couple long trips, basically for 50 grand it is worth it. No reason to pay more for fancy cars
