Availability
The V6 is standard on almost every trim level. Front-wheel drive LE editions have a sporty turbo four. Otherwise, the V6 comes with the package. You can drive both engines at our dealership and get an idea of which one meets your criteria.

New and Improved
Toyota engineers have developed a 3.5-liter D-4S Injection engine to improve power output. It also added an eight-speed automatic transmission. Compared to last year’s V6, this year’s model gains 25 horsepower and 15 lb.-ft. of torque. Drivers command 296 horsepower and 263 lb.-ft.

Better Gas Mileage
Although it has more power, the new Highlander V6 is more fuel efficient. The AWD editions gained 3 mpg, pushing the estimates to 27 mpg highway. To improve city gas mileage, the V6 comes with a stop-and-start capability. When a vehicle is stopped at a red light, it wastes gas. To correct that, the new V6 can pause the engine until needed.

Family Package
An Entune touchscreen comes with a handy rearview camera. If you pick the Limited or Platinum editions, you can get an extra helping of style and technology. The Easy Speak microphone helps parents talk to kids on the back row. The new Highlander SE dresses in black leather that’s accented by a silver stitch.
