2023 Toyota Highlander

With Toyota’s 2023 Highlander, the company has created an excellent mid-size SUV for everyone. Whether you need something comfortable, spacious, and safe for your family, or something rugged, capable, and reliable for outdoor adventures, the Toyota Highlander has your back. Read on to learn about our six favorite features of the 2023 Highlander.

5 Impressive Features of the 2023 Toyota Highlander

1. Third-Row Seating

The 2023 Highlander comes with three rows of seats. Depending on your trim level, you can either have a second-row bench seat or second-row captain’s chairs, which means Highlanders can seat either seven or eight people. This is a major advantage over crossover and mid-size SUVs that only have a seating capacity of five. That’s more family members or friends that can join you on your next adventure.

2. Multi-Terrain Select

Highlanders with all-wheel drive (AWD) come with Multi-Terrain Select, a feature that allows you to choose from four different terrain options to maximize traction by detecting when your wheels slip.

Terrain options are:

  • Mud & Sand
  • Rock & Dirt
  • Snow
  • Regular

3. Drive Modes

2023 Highlanders across all trim levels come with Drive Mode Select, which lets you choose one of three drive modes on gasoline powertrain Highlanders and five modes on hybrid Highlanders. Using these modes, you are able to maximize fuel efficiency with Eco Mode, power with Sport Mode, or strike a balance with Normal Mode. Hybrids can also select Trail Mode on AWD Highlanders and EV Mode, which allows for electric-only driving at low speeds.

4. Safety Sense 2.5+

Toyota’s in-house safety package, Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+, offers an indispensable selection of safety features to keep your family and friends safe at all times.
TSS 2.5+ includes:

  • Pedestrian Detection
  • Dynamic Cruise Control
  • Steering Assist
  • Automatic High Beams
  • Lane Assist
  • Road Sign Assist

5. Wi-Fi Connect

This amazing service, available as a subscription, allows your 2023 Highlander to turn into a Wi-Fi hotspot using AT&T’s 4G network. Another great perk of this service is that Spotify and Apple Music streaming services are seamlessly integrated. Toyota’s Wi-Fi Connect is a must-have for long trips, so passengers can enjoy their devices without having to worry about tethering to a phone or running up huge mobile data bills.

6. JBL Premium Audio System

Coming standard on Limited and Platinum (gasoline and hybrid) Highlanders and as an upgrade on XSE Highlanders, the 11-speaker JBL Premium Audio System will provide you with an incredible sound experience. The system includes a subwoofer and an amplifier to ensure your music and radio shows sound perfect.
