Why it stands out
The 2023 Toyota Highlander stands out as a practical, comfort-focused midsize SUV that puts everyday usefulness ahead of excitement. In this generation, Toyota has kept the formula centered on comfort and versatility, and the Highlander’s appeal comes from being an easy vehicle to live with rather than a flashy one. It offers both gas and hybrid powertrains, front-wheel drive is standard with all-wheel drive optional, and it can be configured with up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded down. That combination makes it a strong fit for buyers who want a roomy family hauler with a reputation for reliability and strong resale value.
For 2023, the biggest mechanical change was under the hood: Toyota replaced the V6 with a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 265 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. The hybrid remains available with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder and electric motor that combine for 243 system horsepower, and Toyota says the new turbo four delivers about 1 to 2 mpg more in every measure of fuel economy. The Highlander also comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen, USB inputs, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa, along with Toyota Safety Sense. Its strengths are clear, but so are its compromises: reviewers consistently note that it is dull to drive, not very powerful, and that Toyota’s tech can still be a hassle to use.

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.

Car’s 3rd row is not bumpy. Features like Birds Eye view are fantastic. Drives very smooth.

Is the 2023 Toyota Highlander reliable?
Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The 2023 Highlander is presented as a reliable SUV with a practical, family-friendly focus and a reputation for safety and comfort. Its overall appeal comes from being a well-rounded vehicle that prioritizes everyday dependability and usability.
For used buyers, that kind of reputation can reduce long-term ownership risk, especially if you verify condition and maintenance history before you buy.
What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota Highlander?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 85.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should prioritize a history report first, then inspect the vehicle closely for signs of prior damage, uneven wear, or poor repairs. Focus on overall condition, especially if you are comparing multiple listings at similar prices.
Because this model is often bought for family use, pay extra attention to interior wear, cargo-area condition, and how well the vehicle has been maintained.

What is the 2023 Toyota Highlander's resale value?
The current average of $35,627 sits slightly below last year's $37,116.
That price movement suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now if you're planning to keep the vehicle for several years. For a future seller, a softer entry price can also mean less downside if the model remains in demand.
The Highlander's practical appeal, spaciousness, and safety-focused reputation should help support buyer interest over time. 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:
- 34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 85.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 4.01% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $33,016, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $35,627 average.
- It offers a well-rounded family-hauling package with strong basics.
The bottom line: You should start with the 2023 if you want the newer model year and are comfortable paying more for it. If your priority is value, the 2022 is the better path because it costs less while still delivering the Highlander's core family-friendly strengths.
