Overview & Reviews
Front-seat side airbags and two-row side curtain airbags are standard on the 2007 Toyota Highlander. Toyota's midsize crossover SUV also gets revised headlights this year.
- Rides and handles like a Camry, smooth V6 engine or fuel-efficient four-cylinder, all major safety features standard.
- Poor access to optional third-row seat, bland personality, not as good a value as it once was.

Long Lasting! - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Peter Fenner - October 5 - 7:33 amI bought this car new in March, 2007 and have 163,000 miles on it. Ive done all the maintenance but my repair bill has been exactly $10 for a new gas cap! Its by far the most reliable car I have ever had and it still runs like new! The only negative is that even with the V6, its a little sluggish, but it rides smooth and has never let me down. As far as maintenance, the brakes are very strong, I can stop on a dime, and last a long time (around 75,000 miles). The tires do wear fairly quickly. Overall, how much more can I ask for and given how its running, even though I have the itch for a new car, why would I? It will be interesting to see how long it lasts - As I mentioned before, it sounds no different than when I drove it off the lot! Ok, its three weeks after I wrote the above review. The transmission died just short of 164,000 miles. Its a bit disappointing to say the least. Still a good car but I expected it to last beyond 200,000 miles. Donated it to Goodwill and bought a Honda CRV. Oh well

Great Ride! - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Roderick M. Martin - July 30 - 7:33 pmBought this demo from the dealer with 2300 miles on it. After driving Camrys all our lives we wanted a SUV for the winters in Michigan. Twice we have been in snowstorms and one blizzard and felt very comfortable driving in the snow. We barely felt the shifting when it went into all wheel drive. The only complaint we have is that somehow the sides of the front seats are beginning to wear and when I have checked out other Highlanders I notice the same weathering. I like the fact that I can sit higher and see better out any window and the gas mileage for this 4cyl SUV is closer to 30 on the highway. We will be looking for another Highlander when its time for a new car as we love it!

Real world car - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By philip k - March 31 - 3:10 pmThis is our 2nd Highlander. My wife and I liked the 2001 so much, that we decided to buy the 2007 before the upcoming redesign. The size and practicality is perfect for our family. We live in upstate NY, so 4 wheel drive is important, but the vehical never goes off road so we dont need a heavy 4x4 SUV. The Highlander meets all of our needs.

High Marks For Highlander - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Florida Son - July 2 - 2:03 amLooked long and hard at what was available out there, and Highlander Limited is the perfect vehicle if you want a well-built, reliable mid-size SUV that doesnt go off-road. My limited is loaded with lots of options, and it seems Toyota has put just about anything you can think of into the vehicle. Safety features are also above and beyond, comparable with Volvo. Its early in the process for us, but were very happy thus far!

Great SUV! - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Michael - December 14 - 4:06 pmI have thoroughly enjoyed my new Highlander. It has a nice smooth ride with minimal noisy and plenty of room. The design and functionality of the car make it a great buy! In addition, it looks great!

Excellent SUV - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By T Fontana - August 21 - 1:23 pmI love my new Highlander. I loved my Dodge Durango V8, but gas was getting expensive. This is my first Toyota and so far, so good. Very comfortable to drive, Im 52 and hes 511, perfect for both. Nice amount of shopping space and visibility. My 7 yr old love all the cup holders. Only suggestion would be if the SUV came with window guards to protect more from the rain when opening the doors. I wish I had gotten the gray interior instead of the tan, just more vacuuming will be required. Over all very happy with my new car.

Love It - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Linda & Nick - July 16 - 7:06 pmWe made up our minds to get another Toyota, this time the Highlander. Love it. Not too big, not too small, its just right. It handles smoothly and I have the feeling of security in it. Would suggest this auto to anyone who is looking for safety, height of 4 wheeler, and ride of Lexus. Very comfortable, love it, love it, love it. Cant go wrong buying this one. Well worth it. No negatives on this car.

Love My Highlander!! - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Anna - March 17 - 11:53 amI knew I wanted this car from the moment I saw it. When I found out that 3rd Row seating was available, I knew it was the car! I love how it drives!! The ride is smooth and the seats are very comfortable. My husband sat in the 3rd row and he said there was plenty of legroom. Our 9 year old son thinks the car is "spacious". Our 3 year old likes the car too. I love all the features it has. Outside temp display, drivers window is auto up and down, auto dimming rear view, separate rear heat control, the little compartment to the left of the steering wheel (great for garage door opener and parking garage card AND chapstick!), 6-disc in dash CD changer and the 10 cup holders!! WOW!!

I Love My Toyota - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By Patricia A. Campbell - February 9 - 4:40 pmThe Highlander is really a great car. It is fun to drive, has enough horsepower, and is roomy enough for all 4 of our grandchildren. It drives well and handles quite well in all types of weather. It is so dependable! I looked at a lot of SUVs before choosing this one. No others were even tempting.

Best choice out there - 2007 Toyota Highlander
By David - August 27 - 11:03 amThe car drives great and for the price and financing, there was not a better choice out there. We also looked at a RAV Limited but the Highlander was roomier and rode better. The RAV limited was more sporty and had all the extras but at the end of the day, the Highlander was it. This has been a great car for the family.
