Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The Bronze Edition trim joins the lineup.

Pros
High fuel economy for a three-row SUV
Sensibly priced compared to the non-hybrid Highlander
Comfortable ride
Plenty of standard and available safety features

Cons
Third-row seats are cramped
Not a whole lot of cargo space behind the third row
Engine sounds unrefined at full throttle

A new Hybrid Bronze Edition model joins the lineup and wears Cement or Wind Chill Pearl exterior paint with a set of cool 18-inch bronze-colored wheels. The cabin also receives some unique design elements in the form of geometric-patterned upholstery with bronze-colored detailing and illuminated bronze-colored doorsill protectors. Elsewhere, XLE and higher trims now come with a height-adjustable power-seat feature for the front passenger. The Highlander otherwise carries over to 2022 with no other changes.

Pros
Handsome styling,
available as a fuel-saving hybrid,
driver-assistance features come standard.

Cons
Lazy driving characteristics,
snug third row,
busy dashboard design.
