Key Features of the 2017 Toyota Highlander: What Sets It Apart?

At our Toyota dealership located near Mountain Top, PA, we frequently receive inquiries regarding our current Toyota promotions. Recently, there has been a notable increase in interest surrounding the 2017 Toyota Highlander. As potential buyers pass by our dealership or conduct online research, they are recognizing that this popular three-row SUV has some distinct changes.

One of the most prominent alterations in the 2017 Toyota Highlander is its appearance. The SUV features a larger trapezoidal grille that now stretches down to the front bumper. The grille is adorned with silver trim on the LE, LE Plus, and XLE models, while the Limited and Platinum versions feature chrome trim. The sporty SE trim showcases a grille with sleek gloss-black slats, enhancing its eye-catching design.

Additionally, the Toyota Highlander now has reconfigured headlights and more defined corners on its bumper. New taillights equipped with standard LED elements are also part of the updated design. While both the 2016 and 2017 Toyota Highlander utilize a 3.5-liter V6 engine, the power output of the new Highlander is notably greater.

While we commend the added power from the new engine and admire the SUV’s refreshed exterior, we believe the most crucial update is the inclusion of Toyota Safety Sense as standard across all Highlander models. This safety suite features advanced technologies, including pedestrian and vehicle detection, a collision avoidance system with emergency braking, lane departure alerts, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. All trims, except the LE and LE Plus, also include a blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert.
