Toyota Highlander Review for 2015 Model Year
If your checklist for a family-friendly crossover SUV includes space for up to eight people, a comfortable and quiet ride, good performance and fuel economy, and occasionally towing up to 5,000 pounds, you should check out the 2015 Toyota Highlander in Richardson.
The Highlander is available in front- or all-wheel drive and with a choice of thrifty four-cylinder or robust V6 engines. Choose from five different trims, each offering increasing quantities of luxury and technology. With all that going for it, Edmunds.com awarded its top "A" rating to the Highlander in its 2015 Toyota Highlander review.
Whichever configuration you choose, you will get a handsome and well-appointed SUV with a comfortable cabin and plenty of room for passengers or cargo. There is 42.3 cubic feet of space with the third row folded, or 83.7 cubic feet with the both back rows folded. You will find the Highlander is also a pleasure to drive. Its refined V6 and smooth six-speed automatic transmission also make it one of the quickest SUVs out there.
Test-drive a 2015 Toyota Highlander in Richardson. That quiet, comfortable ride is courtesy of the thicker acoustic glass and insulation in the flooring. Supple soft-touch surfaces are in all the right places. Built-in storage spaces make it easy to secure and stow everything from cell phones to large purses. The gauge cluster has a contemporary look thanks in part to the multifunction information display positioned in the middle.
The 2015 Toyota Highlander comes standard with traction and stability control, antilock disc brakes, front seat side airbags, a driver knee airbag, a front passenger seat-cushion airbag and full-length side curtain airbags. A rearview camera is also standard.
The Highlander's combination of flexibility, comfort, roominess, and excellent driving dynamics make it a great choice for a family-friendly crossover SUV. Learn more as our 2015 Toyota Highlander review continues below...
