CarGurus Analysis: 2016 Toyota Highlander

Summary
With 106 currently listed for sale near Orlando, FL and an average price of $15,151, 17.9% of 2016 Toyota Highlanders for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 Toyota Highlander 4.93 / 5 stars.
86.8% of 2016 Highlander models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Toyota Highlander stands out as a comfortable, practical midsize SUV that puts everyday usability ahead of flash. In this generation, Toyota gave the Highlander more upscale styling and interior features, and reinforced the body to make it more comfortable on the road. It also offers both gas and hybrid powertrains, with front-wheel drive standard and all-wheel drive optional, which gives shoppers a straightforward choice between efficiency and traction.
For 2016, the Highlander’s appeal comes from its broad mix of space, equipment, and safety. It can carry up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded down, and every Highlander comes with an 8-inch touchscreen, USB inputs, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, and more. Toyota Safety Sense is standard, including lane-keep assist, lane-departure alerts, and automatic emergency braking. The hybrid can deliver 35 mpg combined, which is much more than most other midsize SUVs, and the model’s strong safety record helped it earn “Top Safety Pick” or “Top Safety Pick+” designations from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety every year of this generation except 2026.
The tradeoff is that the Highlander is not especially exciting to drive. The source describes it as lacking vigor, with soft suspension tuning and numb, uncommunicative steering, and it also notes that the third row is tiny. Even so, its comfort, practicality, reliability, and long-term value make the 2016 Highlander a compelling choice for buyers who want a well-rounded family SUV rather than a sporty one.

Has all the bells and whistles important to a grandmother hauling grandkids to ballgames and everything in between. Smooth as a cadillac ride, great power, and I love the auto liftgate and back up camera. Third row seats are handy to have and fold down flat. Toyota has a great reputation for lasting a long time, and I like to keep my cars many years. Drove a GMC Acadia prior to this car, and I prefer the Toyota.

Coming from a 13 Tucson that blew up on us without warning, this 2016 Toyota Highlander Limited is absolutely stunning. We are very pleased with the fit and finish on the Limited trim, the features are amazing, every single option. It rides so smooth and so quiet, has great power, great fuel economy. It has sharp lines outside, looks great inside, Toyota really did a great job with this vehicle. We are proud to be new members of the Toyota family. We hope for decades of good ownership within Toyota.

Is the 2016 Toyota Highlander a good car?
Yes — the 4.93/5 user rating points to very strong owner satisfaction. Owners consistently praise its comfort, reliability, and the abundance of features, and they also highlight the smooth ride and strong V6 power. That fits a practical family SUV use case well if you want everyday usability, space, and a well-rounded ownership experience rather than something sporty. With 33.0% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitive offer.
Is the 2016 Toyota Highlander reliable?
Owners rate it 4.93/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
Owner feedback also emphasizes reliability, and the repeated praise for a trouble-free, dependable ownership experience suggests this is a model many buyers feel confident keeping for the long haul. For used shoppers, that usually means lower perceived risk if you verify maintenance history and buy a clean example.
What should I look for when buying a used 2016 Toyota Highlander?
At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
Start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from those with past damage. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on body condition, panel alignment, and signs of uneven wear that can hint at prior repairs. You should also focus on overall maintenance condition, since a well-kept Highlander is more likely to deliver the ownership experience shoppers expect.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 Toyota Highlander?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find value.
- Deal availability: 33.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,847 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.43% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 58.7% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $17,933, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2016 Toyota Highlander's resale value?
The current average of $18,182 sits slightly below last year's $18,829.
That softer pricing can help you buy more carefully now, but it also means future resale gains may be more gradual if the market stays steady. For a seller, the current trend suggests you should expect value to hold reasonably well rather than surge. Strong owner satisfaction can help support demand when you eventually list it again.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.93/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2016 Toyota Highlander or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2016 if:
- 33.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.43% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.93/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2017 if:
- At $20,145, the 2017 costs more than the current year's $18,182 average.
- It adds refreshed styling and standard safety updates.
The bottom line: If you want the better value play, the 2016 is the stronger starting point because it combines a lower average price with strong owner satisfaction. If you can stretch your budget and want a newer-feeling version with updated styling and safety improvements, the 2017 is the better secondary path.
