EXECUTIVE EDITOR--AUTOWEEK.COM BOB GRITZINGER: Hefty, pricey, but also near perfect: That's what this flagship version of the Highlander seems to be. In the past, Highlanders seemed to be a little underwhelming--nice enough vehicles, for sure, utilitarian and functional, yes, but nothing too special. This one, with all of this equipment, changes that perception from the moment you settle in behind the wheel. This is one substantial vehicle, with all the bells and whistles one could ever want.
The vehicle looks more stylish than its predecessors, with sharp paint and sheetmetal and a very upscale feel to the interior. It's a good-looking, right-sized vehicle that offers a third row and a third seat between the captain chairs in the second row in case you need max people hauling capacity.
Power from the 3.5-liter V6 is strong, and while a five-speed automatic may not be state of the art, it does the job and is easily manageable via the slap shifter. The steering is a little vague and seemingly needs regular, slight corrections to stay on course, but most drivers probably won't notice. The ride is smooth and quiet, and despite what feels like quite a bit of overall weight, the body roll seems well controlled.
If you can afford to go this far on sticker for what starts as a much less expensive vehicle, the Highlander Limited gives you a lot of vehicle for the money.
NEWS EDITOR GREG MIGLIORE: I downright enjoyed my travels in this troop transporter of a truck. It's freakin' huge, but it doesn't drive like a monster. In fact, the Highlander is well-civilized in most situations. Even when striking through expressway curves at a decent rate of speed, this ute doesn't come unnerved. The roll is reasonable--even a bit better--than most in this segment. The steering pickup is light off center but offers responsive feedback farther into maneuvers; these big wheels add weight, but not overly so.
So, yes, it handles a bit better than many vehicles in class. The Highlander is also well-powered. I thought this was a V8 at first blush, as the 270 horses are channeled efficiently and there's strong push all the way to redline. The five-speed automatic is simple and efficient. Upshifts are smooth as the revs build but not in an angry fashion. Launches are energetic, and passing is no sweat.
This Highlander is also well-suited to daily driving, cushioning road imperfections, train tracks and nearly anything in its path. The suspension is impressive, and the shocks are not excessively bouncy; whack a pothole, and this Toyota hardly blanches. This is much more relaxed than some trucks, which pitch and roll with every obstacle.
The looks are spot-on, in my view. The Highlander has sleek styling and extends back. The lines have a horizontal flow, almost reminiscent of when car styling took cues from locomotives, and there are curves around the wheel wells that make for attractive accents. The greenhouse and pillars also set off the appearance well, looking sleek and swift in contrast to many top-heavy-looking vehicles in this segment. The cabin is luxuriously appointed (as it should be for $43,000), and the door panels feel soft and pleasing. The cabin is reasonably quiet with just a hint of engine din creeping in.
My only preference would be to slash some of the electronic goodies to get the price down a bit. But if you're in the market for a ship like this, you probably want to check most of the option boxes because it will likely be a long-term member of your personal fleet--and it would be a good one.

Toyota Camry lineup gets interior and tech updates one year in
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When it debuted last year, the Toyota Camry came in for some criticism over its interior, most centered on material choices - both in quality (not enough) and variety (too much). Thus, Toyota has responded after just one model year, updating both materials and features on its gas-powered and hybrid family sedans for 2013.
The LE version appeared to get the lion's share of the improvements. Specifically, the LE is getting "soft-touch" door materials as well as armrests that match the rest of the interior color (instead of being black). The LE model also gets Toyota's six-inch display screen that helps folks get a better gander at the car's energy usage and fuel economy, among other things. Other changes include adding cross-traffic alert for models equipped with blind spot monitoring
Toyota introduced its latest version of the Camry and Camry Hybrid in the fall of 2011 as a 2012 model. Sales have been solid, and in particular, the Camry Hybrid has improved its fortunes, bumping its US sales almost fivefold to more than 45,000 units. So far in 2013, the latter has carried over much of that momentum, boosting January 2013 sales from a year earlier by 81 percent to 3,826 units.
Toyota reaffirms commitment to body-on-frame SUVs
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Toyota sold 121,055 Highlander CUVs in 2012, according to Automotive News. By comparison, it sold 78,457 examples of four different body-on-frame, truck-based SUVs (4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Sequoia and Land Cruiser). One could argue then, that the traditional SUVs aren't pulling their weight from a sales perspective. Yet that isn't stopping Toyota from reaffirming its commitment to a segment that has seen its former champions - Ford, General Motors and Chrysler - abandon it with alarming speed. Ford and GM still offer body-on frame utilities, but only in the very largest offerings, catering to seven or even eight passengers. Everything outside of the Expedition or Tahoe rides now on a unibody.
Toyota's decision to stick with the technology is good news if you're in the market for smaller SUVs that are still capable of heading well off the beaten path. Outside of the Jeep Wrangler, Grand Cherokee (a unibody) and perhaps Nissan Xterra, there's not much in terms of capable SUVs between $20,000 and $50,000. As the Toyota brand's US head, Bill Fay, says, "Clearly, the trend has shifted, but there is still an owner base that is interested in these vehicles."
We don't doubt Fay on that, but it may also be somewhat telling that Toyota's SUV lineup is aging, and we haven't seen or heard much about replacement models in the pipeline. Admittedly, the 4Runner (pictured) has been facelifted for 2014, but it's mostly cosmetic in nature. Despite Toyota's posturing, we still expect its body-on-frame lineup to thin in the coming years as sales dwindle and escalating fuel-economy standards make business cases even tougher. Here's hoping that Toyota manages to keep at least one rough-and-tumble SUV in its lineup in the coming years.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
