2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Love this car. Comfortable, utilitarian and eco-friendly. Will run forever if well maintained.

The car drives well. It has good fuel economy (for a van.) It comfortably holds up to 7 people. The seats fold down (we just carried a large dining room table along with 6 chairs in the back.) The sound system and air system work very well. It is fun watching which way the energy is going on the dash.

Lexus-like interior with great MPG...and the kids love it! There are eleven cupholders, 2 power points up front for both spouses cell phones, and a power rear hatch. Nice touches. With some practice, I've mangaged 30.9 mpg on the highway, and nearly the same in the city cycle. Wold like a slightly firmer suspension tune, but that's the compromise. And it runs on 87 octane fuel.

The Highlander Hybrid is a great family car. It has been reliable in all weather conditions. The fuel economy is good. Once you learn how to use the hybrid system the fuel economy increases. The third row easily reclines to more cargo space. The DVD system is terrific and comes with wireless head phones.

It was in good condition and drove well and I have had a Toyota Four Runner 2004 I bought new and put 390 , 000 miles on it with no trouble. Toyota builds great vehicles and keep good value and they stand behind their warranties. I don’t buy anything but Toyota.

This is our first hybrid and we love everything about this vehicle. Gets 28 mpg consistently. We love the color and the 19" rims that are standard on the Limited. The 3rd row seat really comes in handy for hauling my son and his buddies around. We've had zero problems with this SUV so far.

This is a well built SUV that rides like a luxury car. It handles like a mid-size car. Accelerates quickly, it is a little pricy but you pay for luxury. I love it.

I have a review on my own photo album that I will complete. It's a must see. The seat comfort and build quality are unparalled. The fuel economy is excellent at nearly 28 mpg in both city and highway driving. This SUV sets a new standards by which most other car based SUVs are judged.

I purchased this SUV because I could not commit to a minivan, but was sick of my gas-guzzling SUV. I have had the Highlander for a week now and I am getting about 24 miles per gallon. I know it will get better as the car is broken in. I got it fully loaded and love the nav and my son loves the entertainment center.

Overall, the Highlander has been outstanding. A huge amount of cargo space, especially with the 3rd row seat folded down. It has a very smooth ride, and a great sounding stereo with easy connectivity to your phone. The drivers seat seems almost infinitely adjustable. And finally, it really gets out of its own way. Great power for passing and climbing long grades, but without sacrificing efficiency.
