Toyota Highlander Overview

How much is the price of the Toyota Highlander in the UAE?

Past versions of the Toyota Highlander took a shotgun approach to the midsized sports utility vehicle (SUV) segment. There were several variants. Since 2023, the Japanese carmaker has trimmed down the Highlander portfolio to just two models. The 2024 Toyota Highlander has a starting price of AED 169,900.  

How many variants are there in the Toyota Highlander range?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is available in the GXR and VXR models. Both are drawn by the same engine.

Which is the most value-for-money variant of the Toyota Highlander?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander VXR is the most value-for-money model. Though priced higher than the entry-level GXR trim, the VXR gets nine additional features.

What features does the Toyota Highlander get?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is a midsized seven-seater SUV that sits above the RAV4 in the company's lineup. The car has been on sale in America since the last two decades and was only recently introduced in other countries. The Highlander was fully redesigned in 2020. The fourth-generation family hauler has only got minor updates since. The entry-level L trim was discounted from the 2024 Toyota Highlander's lineup. In the international market, the Bronze edition was dropped and swapped with the new Nightshade grade.

The 2024 Toyota Highlander has a modern SUV design. The front gets a large grille with the company logo in the centre. The car gets adaptive, high-output, auto-levelling projector headlights. The Highlander comes with all-around LED lighting. The wide doors alloy easy ingress and egress. other features include power-folding outside mirrors with turn signals and puddle lights, height-adjustable powered liftgate with jam prevention, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. The rear-end gets sleek taillights.

The interior of the 2024 Toyota Highlander is premium and comes with a number of features. It can be had with second row captain's chairs. The GXR trim gets fabric upholstery while the VXR gets leather. The car comes with three-zone automatic climate control. The GXR gets an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment unit connected to a six-speaker sound system. The 7.0-inch driver's multi-information display gets easy readouts. The rearview mirror is digital and the 2024 Toyota Highlander gets ambient lighting. The car gets 241 litres of boot space with all seats up. Folding the third-row flat increases it to 838 litres. The Toyota Highlander runs on 18-inch Goodyear Eagle Touring tires.

How spacious is the Toyota Highlander?

With 4,950mm length, 1,730mm width, 1,930mm height, the 2024 Toyota Highlander is a spacious midsized SUV. The entry-level GXR gets eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat. All seats are nicely padded and supportive. The driver's seat gets lumbar support. The steering wheel is both reach and rake adjustable. The huge central armrest opens to reveal a big storage area. 

The heated and adjustable middle-row seas have plenty of headroom and legroom even if its bench-type. The third row isn't particularly spacious but gets reclining function to maximise comfort. Two adults will comfortably fit into the rear seat, while three will make it a bit crammed.   

The 2024 Toyota Highlander gets a decent-size glovebox and door bins. The dashboard even gets two fabric-lined storage sports to keep wallets and smaller stuff.

The suspension of the 2024 Toyota Highlander is soft and absorbs all bumps and thuds. It offers a comfortable ride even on potholed roads. Only the harshest bumps are minorly felt inside the cabin.

What engine and transmission options are available?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is equipped with a turbocharged, four-cylinder, 2.5-litre petrol engine that produces 240PS/231Nm. The motor is mated to an eCVT transmission. A large seven-seater vehicle isn't the most ideal for urban streets. But the commanding ride position and superb ride quality makes the 2024 Toyota Highlander a very capable SUV to drive around town. The light and well-balanced steering wheel helps here. The top-end VXR comes with dynamic torque vectoring. The 2024 Toyota Highlander gets sport, normal, eco, snow, rock and dirt, and mud and sand modes. 

The 2024 Toyota Highlander, as expected from SUVs, performs best on highways. The cabin's noise insulation is among the best in class. Road and wind noise are kept out. The ride quality is extremely planted and balanced. SUVs aren't quick, and the highlander is no different.

What’s the mileage of the Toyota Highlander?

The powertrain of the 2024 Toyota Highlander is very efficient. But the claimed 18kmpl mileage seems a bit far-fetched. The 2.5-litre petrol engine is paired with two electric motors. The setup helps to increase fuel economy. The car returns an average mileage of 15kmpl.

How safe is the Toyota Highlander?

Toyota cars are known for their safety equipment and driver-assist features. The 2024 Toyota Highlander's driver-assist feature are among the best in class. The car gets adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, multiple airbags, lane-keeping assistance, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and automatic high-beam headlights. A backup camera with projected path feature is standard. The GXR gets a 360-degree surround-view camera.

How many colour options are there for the Toyota Highlander?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is available in a single colour in the Emirates market.

Should you buy the 2024 Toyota Highlander?

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is among the higher priced cars in its class. It's more of a premium SUV. The ride quality is smooth and the cabin is noiseless and serene. Buyers prefer to travel in the best possible comfort should opt for the Highlander. 

What are my alternatives?

The BMW xDrive 20i, Yukon SLE, Mohave Top, and the Yukon XL SLE are the closest competitors of the 2024 Toyota Highlander. 

Other things to consider

The 2024 Toyota Highlander is a relatively new car from the Japanese company in the Emirates market. Its long-term worthiness is yet to be proved. But it never had any issues in other countries where the car is sold. Toyota is also one of the most trusted automobile brands globally.

Toyota Highlander Interior & Features

Toyota has given the Highlander a fuss-free interior layout, something which it has followed for most of its offerings across all price ranges. The SUV has a spacious three-row setup, which feels practical and ergonomically well laid out.

The Toyota Highlander has a large housing for the instrument console behind the multi-functional steering wheel, which has a 7-inch TFT screen for most of the data display. The centre console looks fascinating with a large touchscreen infotainment system in a stand-out manner, sitting above the sleek air vents. This entire housing for the infotainment system has a small storage space below it, in the middle of the centre console. The dual-tone black and beige theme for the cabin makes it look even airier.

The Highlander is equipped with several state-of-the-art features, including powered front seats with memory function, leather upholstery, tri-zone automatic climate control, push start-stop button, panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, head-up display, wireless charger, and more.

Highlander Exterior

The Toyota Highlander looks like an evolved form of the RAV4 and can make one feel like how the RAV4 can look if it grows in size. However, that doesn’t mean that it looks exactly like a RAV4 – it is inspired by the RAV4 and has a sleek yet towering stance to it.

At the front, the fascia of the Toyota Highlander looks very much similar to the RAV4. The large trapezoidal grille of the Highlander is aggressive, which gets chrome surrounds and fang-like chrome inserts on its upper part flanking the Toyota logo. The sweptback headlamps of the Highlander have a sleek appearance and house LED projector bulbs and sleek daytime running LEDs. The LED projector fog lamps have inverted L-shaped housings on the corners of the front bumper.

For a full-size SUV, the Toyota Highlander has a very sleek design, which is something rare in its category. The side body panels have smooth contours, while the raised bonnet still reminds us that it is a proper SUV with a tall stance. The Toyota Highlander gets a triangular design for the rear quarter glass, squared wheel arches with body mouldings, gunmetal grey alloy wheels, and door-mounted rearview mirrors.

The wide rear fenders of the Toyota Highlander move towards the rear profile of the SUV, which also continues the essence of sleekness, with its sleek two-part combination lamps and a cleaner design for the boot lid. It has a trapezoidal housing for the license plate on the boot lid and a simple-looking black rear bumper with rear fog lamps neatly integrated into the corners.

Toyota Highlander Ride & Handling

It is where the Toyota Highlander outshines its rivals, with its fine balance of ride and handling. While the overall driving experience of the Toyota Highlander is not too enthusiastic, it feels nimble and plush to drive, an experience that many full-size SUVs might not replicate. The Toyota Highlander measures 4950mm long, 1930mm wide, and 1730mm tall.

Highlander Engine & Fuel Consumption

The only powertrain option with which the Toyota Highlander is being offered in the UAE is a 2.4-litre petrol-hybrid mill. This powertrain is a combination of a 2.4-litre petrol engine, a front-mounted motor, a lithium-ion battery, and an eCVT. The maximum power output of this powertrain is rated at 240 bhp, which is decent for lower urban speeds. However, one might wish for more power when the speeds rise. The maximum fuel efficiency of this powertrain is a claimed 20 kmpl.

Toyota Highlander Braking & Safety

The long equipment list of the Toyota Highlander includes features like front, side, curtain, and driver knee airbags, ABS with EBD and brake assist, dynamic radar cruise control, lane trace assist, pre-collision system with lane departure alert, automatic high beam, panoramic view monitor, blind spot detection with rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors and tyre pressure monitoring system.

Highlander Verdict

The Toyota Highlander is one full-size SUV which feels good to drive and is impressively spacious and comfortable, while at the same time, defies all the odds of a full-size SUV by being massively fuel-efficient for its size.
