This Year's Model Updates:

The 2010 Toyota Highlander is unchanged other than a new sunroof option on base four-cylinder models and an available rearview camera that's now offered on base V6-powered versions.

Pros:
  • Powerful and fuel-efficient V6, user-friendly cabin with innovative second-row seat design, easy to maneuver considering its size.
Cons:
  • Less total interior capacity than some competitors, one-piece third-row seatback limits passenger/cargo-carrying flexibility.

  • Best Crossover Available - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    Not a Toyota Guy, first one ever, first import ever, but I love this car. Made in America: Check (Princeton, IN); Great Gas Mileage: Check (24MPG avg); Family Hauler: Check (3 Kids under 7). Went with the 4-Cylinder (Not hauling anything) and purchased after-market leather from the dealership. Looks great, feels great, and is much easier to keep clean with the kids. 6-Speed 4 Cyl is very peppy on the highway with superior low-end torque, and the mpg rivals the MUCH more expensive Hybrid. Cargo is very-skimpy with the third- row up, but when folded flat its downright cavernous back there. Spacious seating for everyone - even 3rd row isnt bad. Hard to find flaws with this vehicle.

  • The Best SUV w/3rd row! - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    I have been shopping around for a vehicle with a 3rd row. My kids absolutely love it. There is plenty of room in the 3rd row. Gas mileage is fine for this size SUV. V6 is great. I would absolutely recommend the Highlander.

  • I like it! - 2010 Toyota Highlander

    I bought the highlander about a month ago after doing my research on crossovers and SUvs. I chose the highlander after seeing all of the wonderful reviews it had. I am very pleased with my decision although I do believe as with other people there could be a few added upgrades on these vehicles. I purchased the 4 cyl and average about 28 mpg highway going about 60 mph. Im very satisfied with my choice.

  • First New Car - 2010 Toyota Highlander

    Bought this Toyota Highlander New - looked for a 7 seater SUV for our family of 5 for 8 months. Ended up with this and am very satisfied. Can only say this is a great vehicle. Wish the gas mileage was a little better but still its an SUV. I have three young kids and they all fit well with room to spare. Love this car. I also plan on keeping it for 10 years.

  • Great SUV - 2010 Toyota Highlander

    I just traded in my BMW 330i for this HL and no regret. I drove a Lexus RX300 before and I like this HL much better. Very roomy and has a lot of power. I think it will look better after I install the running board, bug guard. Strongly recommended this vehicle to anyone looking a mid-size SUV. Oh, did I mention I got it for $100 under invoice + 0% interest for 60 months, 2 yrs free maintenance and good value on my trade-in. I miss the BMW for a few days but when I think of I wont have to fill Premium gas and pay $120 for an oil change and I smile at the HL :-)

  • Great ride! - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    I really enjoy my 2010 Toyota Highlander Limited. This vehicle definitely has a great amount of power along with a smooth and quite ride. I have previously owned some of Lexuss high end SUVs and I must say I dont see much of a difference in the ride quality, features, style, etc. Granted I did purchase the limited so the features are much improved over the base model. The only thing I can say negative about the highlander is fuel economy. I get around 16 mpg with a good mix of highway and city driving. I understand that is not awful for a midsize to somewhat larger SUV but I just dont like that they state its 20 city & 27 highway. That being said BUY THIS VEHICLE!

  • Great ride and priced right - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    Great ride and very comfortable. Car handles well and is very quiet. I wish that the leather seats would heat up a little faster, on cold days in the North east it is a shock on the rear sitting on the cold leather. Like the display unit in the console with the rear camera. Havent had the opportunity to take it on a long ride on the interstate so not sure what mileage would be for highway driving.

  • Perfect SUV - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    Owned Highlander now for few months and I cannot be any happier with it. Perfect combination of power and smooth ride, secure handling but not sporty as I expected. But for family with kids more than enough room and quiet ride. Brakes are strong and gas mileage is excellent for its size. Towed a 3000 lbs boat no issues.

  • Awesome - 2010 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    This is a great buy. We looked for several months at several vehicles. This is the best choice. City mpg is 21 and hwy is 25.5. This vehicle has a smooth ride and plenty of room and power. It was definitely worth the wait.

  • Great buy! - 2010 Toyota Highlander

    We bought this vehicle in September with 35 miles on it after our Dodge Durangos transmission died on us and we love this car. We chose the Limited 4wd because it was very classy looking compared to what we had.The power lift gate is an excellent and convenient option. The JBL sound system is superb, the gps is flawless. Handling is car like. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone in the market to buy. Its only got 1600 mile on it so far
