If you are considering the hybrid make sure you learn the tricks to improving gas mileage...or else you might be disappointed with what you are getting for MPGs. |
Detailed review: |
It is a very responsive, sturdy, quiet drive. Because of the v6 it has pep to be able to get in the thick of things on the highway when I need the power. I like the height of the SUV I don't feel like I need a step ladder to get up into it like my husband's toyota sequoia. I think he even likes driving my hybrid better than his own toyota. Make sure you research how to get better gas mileage with the hybrids and keep an open mind when driving one. I didn't have to change my driving habits too much to get within an acceptable range of the estimated mpgs for the hybrid. I was only getting 22 mpgs with my vw passat and that was with premium gas at that! With the highlander hybrid I am getting around 25.7mpgs with regular gas and I do mostly highway driving which for the highlander the est. mpgs on highway is 27. As long as that keeps up then I am happy. |
