Reviews
- "Highlander is a competent, refined, family focused SUV that offers great practicality, cargo and passenger versatility, and evident quality. Versions with the conventional V6 engine best represent Highlander's Recommended attributes, as the Hybrid models' higher prices may take years to offset in fuel savings."
— Consumer GuideConsumer Guide: 2009 Toyota Highlander Road Test
- "The Toyota Highlander offers generous room for people and cargo, a choice of powertrains, ample performance, and good fuel economy. Hybrid models offer excellent fuel economy, particularly in the stop-and-go traffic of major metros, along with extremely low emissions."
— JB car pagesJB car pages: 2009 Toyota Highlander Review
- "Boasting midsize SUV versatility without the attendant poor fuel mileage and trucklike handling and ride, the 2009 Toyota Highlander exemplifies the virtues of a now-flourishing vehicle breed -- the crossover SUV."
