Overview & Reviews

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.

• Powerful and fuel-efficient V6, user-friendly cabin with innovative second-row seat design, easy to maneuver considering its size.

• Less total interior capacity than some competitors, one-piece third-row seatback limits passenger/cargo-carrying flexibility.

  Great SUV - 2010 Toyota Highlander

  Love this SUV. Lots of room inside. Carries 6 adults with no problems. Will carry 7 for short distances. Very quiet on the highway, and in town.

  4 Years Later, Still A Solid Vehicle - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By bulldogvillan - March 19 - 9:24 am

  I purchased my Highlander in November 2009. 48k miles later and she still drives like she did off of the lot. Plenty of cargo space to accommodate our family of 4. Enough acceleration to make merging onto any freeway a breeze. Its average around 20 mpg. The interior of the car has held up very well. Plenty of room and head clearance (Im 63"). Quiet and soft ride. It handles much like a Camry. Weve had no problems, other than the tires wearing out at 30k miles. Put some Michelin tires on and they havent had any wear after 18k miles. I do wish it had an outside temp reading on the dash. The 3rd row is very cramped, and hard to get to, but we dont really need it anyways.

  Good, solid Auto-Just the right size - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By Golfnut - February 9 - 11:43 pm

  Since my 2002 Highlander with 183,500 miles needed some major repairs, I decided to trade it in on the 2010 model. My 2010 is just the base model with a 4 cylinder engine, front wheel drive. This engine is a bit larger than my other model, so the extra pep is nice, ride is good, interior is nice and comfortable. This physical size of the Highlander is just right, not to small, and not too large. The engine is a bit noisy at times, and I hope the 6 speed transmission last like my 2002 model. I change my own oil & filter religiously at 3500 miles, and the only thing I do not like about this new engine is the oil filter, it is a messy process.

  Third Row Seats - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By Larry - January 31 - 2:36 pm

  Without question I would recommend any Toyota product. I have been driving a Toyota vehicle since 2003 and have been very pleased. The Highlander is a great SUV. The only problem is the 3rd row seat. The cup holders take up a lot of the storage space. The 3rd row seat is now standard and is something my wife and I dont need. Toyota should go back and make this optional or change the design to eliminate this problem.

  Toyota Highlander is a Gas Guzzler - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By Chandara - January 22 - 6:46 pm

  I bought this car because I believed the stats as fact. I read that this SUV give you about 18 miles/gallon in the city. But my 2010 toyota highlander got me only 13 to 14 miles per gallon. I only got 750 miles on my SUV right now, but I had to fill up 4 times already. Each time cost me about $45.00. I am spending about $850.00 (car payment, insurance and gas)per month just to drive this car! Totally not worth it!

  Satisfied Highlander Owner - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By DRAC - January 11 - 6:20 am

  We purchased this vehicle as a second family hauler. We shopped the Chevy Transverse, Mazda CX-9, Ford Edge, and the Honda Pilot. The Mazda and Chevy had the looks but when fuel economy and reliability was factored in, we decided the Highlander fits our need. The ride comfort was also a deciding factor in this decision. Were averaging 19 to 20 city and 24 to 27 on the highway (75mph) with the Base V6 package. The higher numbers were achieve during moderate driving. (I dont baby anything I drive). Dont let the recent recalls scare you away from this vehicle, test drive one and you will see.

  Cargo space? - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By A. Vesparado - December 30 - 8:03 am

  Cant tell you how Toyota measures cargo space, but, they must not use the standard formula of W x L x H. The stated 95.4 cu in is grossly overstated: Measuring w/ back seats down, from the tailgate to back of front seats, from the roof to the floor (top of lowered seats), and, from the widest width, I come up with 70" x 34" x 42". Totaling 99,960 cu in. Divided by 1,728 cu. in. that make a cubic foot, I come up with 57.8 cu ft. If the driver and passenger are cargo, that might make the difference. Measuring the same area on the Honda Pilot, I come up with 74 cu ft plus about 1 1/2 feet under the back mat. And, the seats all lay flat. Unlike the Highlander.

  Best SUV in market today - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By Solid performance - December 23 - 9:56 am

  After trying many SUVs I found Highlander combines power, ride quality, interior room with descent fuel economy. Car rides very smoothly and engine has lots of power when needed. Great visibility and easy to park.

  Solid Mid-size SUV - 2010 Toyota Highlander
  By houstonjeff - September 19 - 12:13 am

  Considered Highlander and Chevy Traverse. Felt Highlander would be better for the long run. Like Captains seats in 2nd row. Very quiet ride and comfortable. Rear camera is nice feature. Good value for price paid.
