Product Overview

Toyota Highlander Mk3 (chassis code XU50) is a mid-size crossover in production from 2013 to 2019. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.7 to 3.5 liters.
Compared to the Mk2, the drivetrain is more of an evolution. Notably, Toyota introduce an 8-speed automatic transmission in the middle of its production run. In other respects, the most marked difference is the vastly improved exterior styling.
Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, will appreciate the extraordinary approach and departure angles that the chassis offers. Utility-minded owners will love the 2370L (84cu-ft) cargo space.
