There are a lot of small SUVs available with fuel-efficient Hybrid or plug-in hybrid drivetrains, but what if you need something bigger? The 2023 Toyota Highlander Hybrid is the perfect option because three-row midsize SUVs offer more capabilities and versatility. However, there are only a few hybrids that meet these requirements. When families seek a three-row SUV with excellent fuel efficiency, the Highlander Hybrid is a tried-and-true choice. The fourth-generation Toyota Highlander was unveiled for the 2020 model year, and this year marks a minor midcycle upgrade with a few new technological features. Other three-row hybrid SUVs in competition with the Highlander include the Ford Explorer Hybrid and the Kia Sorento Hybrid. In this post by Le Mieux and Son Toyota, we'll learn about the 2023 Toyota Highlander Hybrid.
Toyota's three-row Highlander shares the RAV4 Hybrid's hybrid powertrain, but it has been slightly beefed up to accommodate the extra weight. Our test Highlander reached 60 mph from 0 in 8.2 seconds. That is undoubtedly respectable, given that some SUVs with V6 engines require as much time and have considerably lower fuel efficiency. As expected, emergency braking capability.
This Hybrid rides surprisingly smoothly over curves. Although the handling of the Highlander Hybrid is less sharp than that of the Ford Explorer Hybrid, handling isn't typically a prominent selling feature for three-row SUVs. The Highlander Hybrid excels at ease of operation, which is more crucial. Power is easily accessible and given smoothly, and the brakes are smooth and don't display the grubbiness prevalent in other hybrid vehicles.
