Overview
2008 Toyota Highlander SPORT Front angle medium view photo KBB Editors' Overview
The first Highlander arrived in 2001 as Toyota's third car-based crossover SUV, following the compact RAV4 and the mid-size luxury Lexus RX 300. As the Toyota brand's more affordable version of the RX, it, like the RX, was built on the Camry sedan platform. And like its Lexus cousin, the Highlander has been very successful. Now comes this all-new 2008 Highlander, which (as with the current RAV4) is substantially larger, roomier and more powerful than its predecessor. Happily, its added girth and heft comes in tandem with slightly improved fuel economy.
You'll Like This Car If... You May Not Like This Car If...
If a Japanese mid-size crossover with an optional third row tops your wish list, you should take a good look at this one. It's feature-laden, neither too big nor too small and should prove reliable for many years. For buyers with more specialized needs or wants, the Highlander's well-rounded personality might not be as appealing as the sporty character of the Mazda CX-9 or the higher towing capacity of the Ford Explorer or Nissan Pathfinder, for instance.
What's New for 2008
Though still a "mid-size" SUV, the second-generation Toyota Highlander has been expanded and improved in every way and now boasts a softer, quieter highway ride and more usable third-row seat. All three trim levels are powered by a new 270-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 driving through a five-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission.
