Summary
With 172 currently listed for sale near Kansas City, MO and an average price of $34,163, 58.1% of 2023 Toyota Highlanders for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2023 Toyota Highlander 4.75 / 5 stars.
100.0% of 2023 Highlander models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2023 Toyota Highlander stands out as one of the most comfortable and practical vehicles in its class. Toyota’s fourth-generation redesign brought more upscale styling and interior features, and the SUV’s body was reinforced to make it more comfortable on the road. It also remains a true do-it-all family hauler, with up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo space when the seats are folded down. Standard equipment includes an 8-inch touchscreen, USB inputs, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa, while Toyota Safety Sense comes standard with lane-keep assist, lane-departure alerts, and automatic emergency braking.
What makes the 2023 Highlander especially appealing is its mix of efficiency and versatility. Gas versions use a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 265 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, while hybrids combine a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor for 243 system horsepower. The hybrid can deliver 35 mpg combined, which is much more than most other midsize SUVs, and the turbo four is said to deliver about 1 to 2 mpg more in every measure of fuel economy than the outgoing V6 without giving up power. Buyers also get the Highlander’s strong reputation for reliability, safety, and resale value.
Its main drawbacks are familiar ones. The Highlander is still not especially exciting to drive, and its steering is generally numb and uncommunicative. The third row is also tiny, so it works better as an occasional seat than as a full-time adult space. Even so, for shoppers who want a refined, efficient, and highly practical midsize SUV, the 2023 Toyota Highlander remains an easy one to recommend.

Great value. This car had everything you could want without buying the fanciest top of the line model.

Extremely smooth ride and very comfortable seats. Love the interior layout.

Reviewed a 2023 Toyota XSE AWD on Aug 11, 2023
New 4cyl. is peppy enough, just seems out of place in a vehicle this size. That plus the buzzing of something so small compared to the V6 leaves much to be desired. Handling is great. With the xse sport tuned suspension...it drives relatively good. Only upside of going for the premium audio is the 12.3 inch infotainment. The jbl premium sound doesnt do it for me. Shallow sound and lackluster bass. Build quality is what youd expect from Toyota, surprising actually...in a good way. Seats are comfortable for those lucky to be in the 2 front rows. The third should be reserved for small children or average sized adults in a pinch. Cargo space is a bit small but its what to expect in this segment. The third row means some compromise in that dept. Overall, I love my new Highlander. Its definitely not without flaws but they are easy to look past.

Is the 2023 Toyota Highlander a good car?
Yes — the 4.75/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. The 2023 Highlander stands out as one of the most comfortable and practical vehicles in its class, with upscale styling, a reinforced body for a smoother ride, and family-friendly versatility. You also get up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded down, plus standard tech and safety equipment that make it easy to live with. With 34.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitive offer.
Is the 2023 Toyota Highlander reliable?
Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The overview points to Toyota’s strong reputation for reliability, and the Highlander’s practical design and standard safety equipment reinforce that reputation. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about the basics and more about finding a well-kept example that has been maintained consistently.
What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota Highlander?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 85% — always verify the vehicle history report. You should prioritize a history report first, then focus on a pre-purchase inspection that checks for signs of prior damage, uneven wear, or neglected maintenance. Pay close attention to overall condition, especially if you want the Highlander’s comfort and practicality to hold up over time.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Toyota Highlander?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.
- Deal availability: 34.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 3,828 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 4.18% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 85.0% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $34,319, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2023 Toyota Highlander's resale value?
The current average of $35,247 sits slightly below last year's $36,783. That kind of price movement suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now while still leaving room for future resale appeal. Because the Highlander is practical, comfortable, and widely desirable among family SUV shoppers, it should remain relatively easy to move when you decide to sell. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.75/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2023 Toyota Highlander or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2023 if:
- 34.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 85% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 4.18% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $32,559, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $35,247 average.
- It covers family-hauling basics well with versatility, safety, and a stout V6.
The bottom line: If you want the newer model year with strong satisfaction, solid inventory, and a softer price trend, the 2023 is the better all-around pick. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2022 is the more budget-friendly path and still delivers the core Highlander strengths.
