Performance Features & Engine Specs
To get started, we’ll head right under the hood of the Highlander and check out what powers it.
- Standard: 3.5L V6 engine: 295 horsepower / 263 lb-ft of torque
- Available: 2.5L Hybrid engine: 186 horsepower / 175 lb-ft of torque
The standard V6 engine is paired with an 8-speed Electronically Controlled automatic Transmission, while the Hybrid engine works with the Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (ECVT). Both provide a smooth and easy-to-handle ride.
A front-wheel drivetrain comes standard, but for advanced traction and stability control, be sure to ask about the available all-wheel drive system, which is perfect for drivers who crave off-roading adventure.
Interior Cabin Space & Comfort
Now, we’ll hop right inside and take a look at just how much room you and your fellow riders will get. Depending on the seating arrangement you choose, you’ll be able to fit seven or eight passengers.
