The Full-Size Family SUV That Defined a Segment — 188Ps | 2790mm Wheelbase | Legendary Toyota Durability

At the heart of this Highlander lies Toyota's legendary 2.7L 1AR-FE four-cylinder engine with dual VVT-i — a powerplant celebrated not for headline-grabbing numbers, but for its near-bulletproof reliability. Producing 188Ps (138kW) and 252N·m of torque, it delivers effortless urban acceleration and relaxed highway cruising without ever feeling stressed.
The 6-speed automatic transmission (U660E) is another Toyota strong suit — smooth, decisive, and engineered to last hundreds of thousands of kilometers with basic maintenance. The front-wheel-drive layout keeps weight and mechanical complexity low, contributing to the Highlander's reputation for low running costs and exceptional long-term value retention.
