What's New For the 2020 Toyota Highlander?

It's a brand new life for an old faithful SUV. Toyota completely redesigned the 2020 Highlander to improve on an already robust platform. It has more zing, more power, and more interior pleasures than ever before. Toyota seems to have had a lot of fun crafting the five trims of the Highlander, and it's our privilege to share all of the brand's hard work with you. You're going to love the new chiseled physique of the Highlander.

Which Trims & Features are Available for 2020?

The base model is the L and comes with standout features like LED headlamps and tail-lamps and an 8-inch touchscreen display on the interior. Your LE trim kicks things up a notch with a hands-free liftgate for supremely easy loading and unloading, Leather-trimmed steering wheel and gear shifter. Your third trim is the rugged XLE trim, ringing in the new year with 10-way power driver's seat and plush SofTex® leather-trimmed seats and door trim. Can you believe there are still two more trims to go and that Toyota didn't just stop there and call it a day? Your Limited sports 20-inch alloy wheels, ambient lighting on the interior, and Standard JBL® Audio System. Finally, there's the Platinum trim, throwing in just about everything from other trims plus Panoramic moon-roof w/ Birds Eye Camera and Embossed & perforated leather seating. If you want to take on the road like a boss, you're going to need the Platinum. It's everything good about the Highlander rolled into one royal package.

A Perfect Blend of Power and Fuel Efficiency

The Highlander is fitted with a V6 engine this year that powers out a formidable 295 horsepower and 263 lb-ft of torque (5,000 pounds towing capacity). A second 240 horsepower option is leading the way in class-efficiency, surpassing other models by saving you money at the gas pump and looking great while it's doing it. Both of these engines purr like house cats.
