Miles Overview
The Highlander is Toyota's three-row family SUV, a roomier alternative to the RAV4 that still fits in a standard garage. It drives with a smooth, easygoing character that suits daily errands and long trips alike, though it feels its size in tight spots. Inside, the cabin offers comfortable seating for up to seven, with a third row that folds flat to open up generous cargo space. Owners report the Highlander as a dependable family hauler, with many noting few issues beyond minor annoyances like finicky window motors. Stepping up to the SE from the base model adds a more powerful 3.5L V6 and a sportier look with unique wheels and a firmer suspension. The 3.5L V6 makes 231 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed automatic for confident highway merging, though the two-wheel drive means you'll want winter tires in snow. The SE's stiffer suspension gives it sharper cornering than the Limited, but expect a firmer ride over rough pavement as the trade-off.
