With an A rating from edmunds.com and accolades from a host of other car-rankings sites, a 2016 Toyota Highlander near Owings Mills, MD is as good as it gets in the three-row crossover SUV class. Inside and out, this super-refined vehicle is a winner. Comfort, space (seating for up to eight!), functionality, premium materials, great technology, and a powerful V6 engine: this SUV covers everything an SUV-shopping family could want, and probably a lot more.
The V6 engine we just mentioned is standard on most 2016 Toyota Highlander trims, and it’s a beauty. 270hp and 248 lb-ft of torque are what it’s capable of producing, and it pairs with a top-notch six-speed automatic transmission and either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. Mileage is first-rate, especially for a three-row SUV, and acceleration is terrific too, with AWD models making the 0 – 60 sprint in just 7.3 seconds. The entry-level 2016 Toyota Highlander LE is the one trim that doesn’t come standard with the V6 engine, but it does get a very capable 2.7L 4C engine that’s rated at 185hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. It too is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.
Amongst the 2016 Toyota Highlander model’s five-trim family, the 2016 Toyota Highlander LE, 2016 Toyota Highlander LE Plus, and mid-range 2016 Toyota Highlander XLE offer standard eight-passenger seating, with the latter trim also offering available seven-passenger seating. The two high-end trims – the 2016 Toyota Highlander Limited and 2016 Toyota Highlander Limited Platinum – feature standard seven-passenger seating that replaces the other trims’ three-passenger bench with second-row captain’s chairs.
We haven’t even touched on this class-leading SUV’s outstanding equipment and technology, but let’s do that when you drop by and test drive a 2016 Toyota Highlander, or one of our other first-rate new Toyota cars near Reisterstown, MD!
