If reviews from industry experts are anything to go by, the 2019 Toyota Highlander has something for everyone! Whether you’re looking for superior standard features, all-terrain dependability, or a spacious, accommodating third row, you’ll find plenty to get excited about when you step inside the cabin. Here, we’ve collected a few of the most revealing Toyota Highlander reviews for your convenience.

Find Out What the Experts Are Saying

• U.S. News and World Report – “With a quiet cabin, comfortable first- and second-row seats, and an impressive set of standard safety features, you’ll enjoy watching the scenery pass by in this road-trip-worthy SUV.”
• Kelley Blue Book – “The 2019 Toyota Highlander is among the most recommendable crossover SUVs for busy families. With three rows and seating for seven or eight passengers depending on configuration, the Highlander is roomy, versatile and easy to drive and live with.”
• Edmunds – “The 2019 Toyota Highlander is your quintessential three-row family mover. With comfortable seating, plenty of standard safety features, a strong V6 engine and an impeccable reputation for reliability, the Highlander checks all the boxes for large families in motion.”

Which Trim Do Experts Recommend?

When reading reviews, most drivers are searching for the answer to one question in particular: “Is this vehicle a good value?” For this reason, many reviews cover the different available configurations and pick out the models that have the most to offer for the price. In most cases, the Toyota Highlander XLE reviews contain especially glowing praise. The review from Edmunds is exemplary:

• Edmunds – “Priced right in the middle of the Highlander lineup, the XLE is our pick. It comes standard with the V6 engine and several desirable extras, including blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert systems, leather upholstery, heated front seats, and keyless entry and ignition.”

Of course, the XLE wasn’t the only Highlander configuration that experts wanted to highlight. Here’s what some of them had to say in their Toyota Highlander Hybrid reviews:

• U.S. News and World Report – “The 2019 Toyota Highlander Hybrid has a potent hybrid powertrain, a well-designed cabin, and a smooth ride. A ton of safety features come standard too.”
• Edmunds – “The Highlander Hybrid feels more maneuverable than many other three-row SUVs. You’ll notice its bulk in smaller spaces, but it’s near flawless on long, open roads. Most times the engine is quiet, and the CVT automatic seamlessly blends electric and gas power.”

How Does the Toyota Highlander Handle Bad Weather?

Many drivers near Lehi and Draper have questions about how the 2019 Toyota Highlander does in the snow. Reviews are clear, and it’s safe to say that this SUV handles well in all conditions:

• Edmunds: With 8-inch ground clearance, the Highlander’s ability to go anywhere “exceeds that of most in the segment.” These experts also note that “all-wheel-drive versions are available and include both hill descent control and an electronically lockable differential.”
• U.S. News: “This Toyota is surefooted and stable, and when equipped with the V6 engine, can be upgraded from front-wheel to all-wheel drive.”

If off-road capability is your primary concern, you might be interested in seeing how the Highlander compares to the 2019 Toyota 4Runner.

The Highlander comes standard with room for eight passengers. Those who decide to upgrade to second-row captain’s chairs will be able to seat seven. Its spacious and smartly designed cabin offers 44.2 inches, 38.4 inches, and 27.7 inches of legroom in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd rows, respectively.

If you spend a lot of time behind the wheel of your Toyota Sienna or your Toyota Highlander, you should make sure that your cabin is as calming and relaxing as possible! If you’re the type to invest time in hands-on solutions, making a DIY car air freshener from scratch is a great afternoon project. With a few jars, clay discs, a bit of felt, and a few different herbs and essential oils, you can make every drive more enjoyable.

Clay Disc & Essential Oil Air Fresheners

One of the easiest ways to make a DIY air freshener involves the use of clay discs and essential oils. These can be found online or at craft stores near Lehi and Draper. Once you have both, you’re ready to get started!

Directions:

1. Rub a generous amount of essential oils onto the clay disc.
2. Let the oils soak for a while, then place the disc in your car.

Car Air Fresheners with Felt and Herbs

If you really want to make a car air freshener from scratch, it’s time to gather up your favorite herbs. Making a small felt pouch to hold the scented products only takes a few minutes. Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

• Felt in any color you like
• String
• Your favorite herbs
• Scissors
• Hole punch
• Thread and needle

Directions:

1. Cut out two pieces of felt, making sure they’re of identical size.
2. Create a packet for the herbs by sewing the pieces together.
3. With the baggie formed, load up the herbs into the cavity.
4. Use the hole punch to create a hole in the top of the baggie.
5. Thread the string through the hole, create a loop, and knot it.
6. Hang up your new DIY air freshener on or above the car vent.

Mason Jar Air Fresheners

If you’d like a long-term solution that’s easy to hide away, use a mason jar air freshener. You’ll need each of the following to finish this job:

• Baking soda
• Your favorite essential oils
• Small mason jar
• Cardboard
• Nail

Directions:

1. Use the mason jar lid to trace a circle on the cardboard.
2. Cut out the circle, and use the nail to poke several small holes in the cardboard.
3. Fill up half of the mason jar with baking soda.
4. Drop your favorite essential oils into the jar.
5. Replace the metal circle, separating the screw-on lid from the jar, with the cardboard circle that you’ve cut out. Then screw the top back on.
6. You’re all set to go with your new mason jar car air freshener!

Changing Your Oil

In your owner’s manual you’ll find the recommended oil change schedule for your Toyota model, as well as the type of oil and oil filter you should use. The tools you’ll need include a crescent or socket wrench, an oil filter wrench, a drain pan, latex gloves, and a floor jack or a pair of purpose-made steel ramps to raise the vehicle. Once you have the car elevated and ready, follow these simple steps:

1. Loosen the drain plug and drain the oil
2. Replace and tighten the drain plug
3. Replace the oil filter
4. Add fresh oil
5. Check the oil level

You’ll want to dispose of the old oil properly. The easiest way to do this is to take it to one of the auto parts stores in the Lehi and Draper area that recycle used motor oil, or bring it by our Toyota dealership in Orem.

The Benefits of Regular Oil Changes

The recommended oil change schedule for your Toyota can be found in your owner’s manual, but generally speaking you’ll want to change the oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. This will vary depending on driving conditions. The benefits of regularly changing your engine oil include:

• Maintaining the performance, efficiency, and safety of your vehicle
• Maximizing your vehicle’s resale value
• Avoiding costly repairs

You Can Depend on the Oil Change Experts at Brent Brown Toyota

If you don’t want to change the oil in your Toyota yourself, you can always rely on the experts at Brent Brown Toyota. If you’ve recently purchased a new Toyota, you’ll enjoy no-cost maintenance for 2 years or 25,000 miles, and ToyotaCare Plus can expand these benefits even further!
