The Toyota Highlander is a three-row crossover that is larger than the brand’s top-selling RAV4 but not quite as large as its truck-based Sequoia. The Highlander can seat either seven or eight and provides ample cargo space all while delivering one of the smoothest rides in the class. The current fourth Highlander generation was introduced with the 2020 model year and has been a great success. The 2022 Toyota Highlander therefore does not arrive at Diehl Toyota of Hermitage with any substantial changes. Toyota has instead focused on adding new options and refining the features that were already available. Choice is a big part of what makes the Highlander so popular. Customers in and near Hubbard Youngstown Warren New Castle can choose between either a standard or hybrid powertrain, and Toyota offers six core trim levels—L, LE, XLE, XSE, Limited, Platinum—in addition to a Bronze Edition.

The base model has 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlamps and heated outside mirrors. The LE model adds fog lamps and a height-adjustable power liftgate. The XLE adds roof rails.

Your 2022 Toyota Highlander near Youngstown can seat up to eight in a 2-3-3 configuration, but many customers at Diehl Toyota of Hermitage will opt for the second-row captain’s chairs and thus seating for seven in a 2-2-3 configuration.
