was very serious about buying one, just happened upon a deal on a 2018 so we went with it.
What I like about the hybrid is it has a 2.5L engine that Toyota has standardized on for the hybrid SUVs and Sienna, and its been around a few years plus their eCVT transmission is solid.
I love this Highlander - I had an MDX before it, and its a much better riding car and its just a pleasure to drive for a lot of reasons.
I think its my favorite car I've owned, certainly in the past 20 years.
Not a fan of them switching out the V6 for the turbo 4 on the non hybrids though. They did it for emissions but I don't get swapping out an engine that was bulletproof for a turbo. The hybrid would be the only 2024 model I would buy.
