Summary
With 197 currently listed for sale near New Orleans, LA and an average price of $34,039, 48.2% 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 up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo space when the seats are folded down. It also fits well if you want a refined family hauler with standard tech and safety equipment, plus available gas and hybrid powertrains for different efficiency needs. With 35.3% 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 2023 Highlander’s overview emphasizes Toyota’s strong reputation for reliability, along with a practical, comfort-focused design and standard safety equipment that should appeal to used buyers. Its straightforward family-hauler mission also suggests fewer ownership surprises than more complicated or performance-focused SUVs.
For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about flash and more about making sure the vehicle has been maintained well and hasn’t been worn down by family-duty mileage.
What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota Highlander?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should prioritize a history report first, then focus on a careful inspection of the body, interior wear, and any signs of prior damage or poor repairs. Because the Highlander is meant to be a practical family vehicle, condition matters a lot: check that the cabin, cargo area, and seating surfaces match the mileage and asking price.
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 with some leverage if you’re patient.
- Deal availability: 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 3,825 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 4.09% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 84.8% 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 $35,193 sits slightly below last year's $36,692.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy more carefully now and may also support a steadier resale path if you keep the vehicle in good condition. The Highlander’s practical reputation, comfort-focused appeal, and broad family usefulness should help it stay attractive to future shoppers. If you buy well today, you’re starting from a price point that leaves some room for value retention.
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:
- 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 4.09% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $32,519, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $35,193 average.
- It covers family-hauling basics with versatility, safety, and everyday usability.
The bottom line: If you want the newer model year with a softer price trend and strong inventory quality, the 2023 is the better primary target. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2022 is the smarter secondary path because it delivers much of the same family-friendly appeal at a lower average price.
