The 2007 Highlander is largely a carryover from the previous year, but the headlights have been redesigned and side curtain airbags are now standard.  Like other Toyota truck and SUV models, the Highlander is very configurable.  There are eight different gas-powered models to choose from, thanks to a variety of engine, drive train and trim combinations.
This specific model is the entry point for the Highlander lineup.  Even the base is considerably well-equipped, with power windows and locks, air conditioning, a six speaker CD sound system, and keyless entry.  Options include leather seats, rear seat DVD entertainment system, and an in-dash CD changer.  Many options are packaged together, but still available as stand-alones.
The Highlander is powered by a 2.4 liter DOHC inline four cylinder engine, which makes 155 horsepower and provides 162 pound-feet of torque.  It is mated to a four speed electronically controlled automatic transmission, with a special gearing feature called "Snow Mode."  All Highlander 4x2s are front wheel drive.  The small engine does not offer much in the way towing.  The maximum capacity for this model is 3000 pounds.  This is the most fuel efficient non-hybrid Highlander, with an EPA estimate of 22/28 mpg.
