Car and Driver: “Toyota has made a point of equipping its entire lineup with a bevy ofdriver-assistance features and the Highlander is no exception. The standard safety suite includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, traffic sign recognition, and automatic high-beam headlamps.

2024 Toyota Highlander Performance & Reliability Ratings
If you are reading a comprehensive Toyota Highlander review 2024 guide, it is important to know the latest powertrain options. For the current model year, Toyota has replaced the older V6 with a highly efficient 2.4L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, while hybrid models run on a refined 2.5L 4-cylinder setup. Both options offer stellar performance for McAlester families and come with available AWD.
U.S. News:“The Highlander’s turbo-four engine puts out 265 horsepower and an impressive 310 pound-feet of torque. It’s not a powerhouse, but it lends the Highlander good fuel economy while providing enough oomph to pass and accelerate confidently. On the downside, the engine tends to drone loudly under hard acceleration. All Highlanders come standard with front-wheel drive and a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is available.”
Car and Driver:“It continues to deliver a smooth ride and acceptable handling characteristics as expected of a family-focused SUV; if it has a wild side, we’ve never experienced it.”
Verified Reliability Standards: These consistent driving dynamics are a major reason why the 2024 Toyota Highlander reliability scores remain at the top of the midsize SUV segment, earning exceptional 2024 Toyota Highlander reliability ratings from long-term owners in Muskogee.
Reviews by Popular Trim Level: XLE & Hybrid Models
With multiple configurations to choose from, there is a Highlander for every budget. Two of the most highly reviewed options are the mid-level XLE and the ultra-efficient Hybrid.
Sitting snugly in the middle of the Toyota Highlander lineup, the Toyota Highlander XLE is the Highlander of choice for many Tahlequah drivers. This Highlander build comes with a suite of standard amenities and excellent performance for a low-starting price. Read the Toyota Highlander XLE reviews below:
Car and Driver: “With the base L banished from the lineup for 2024, the XLE is an even more appealing value proposition and remains our trim of choice. In addition to the LE’s long list of standard kit, the XLE adds heated front seats, second-row captain’s chairs and sunshades, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and a power sunroof. All-wheel drive costs $1600, and we’d also spring for the Premium Audio with Dynamic Navigation package, which brings in-dash navigation and an upgraded stereo system.”
Edmunds: “We think the best value of the Highlander lineup comes from the midrange XLE trim. It’s reasonably priced and has most of the features you’ll want from a family hauler.”
