The Toyota Highlander presents families with a seven-passenger crossover SUV solution that is available with or without all-wheel drive. Although a 185-hp four-cylinder model is available, the Highlander's optional 270-hp V6 is a much better match for its size and weight (each are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission). Maximum fuel savings are achieved by way of the Highlander Hybrid gasoline/electric edition of the SUV, which also features all-wheel drive as standard equipment.
