Is the Toyota Highlander a 7-seater vehicle?
1 Answers
The Toyota Highlander model is available in both five-seat and seven-seat configurations. As a mid-cycle refresh, the exterior and interior have undergone modifications and upgrades that are largely consistent with the U.S. version, with the 3.5L model being discontinued. A total of eight models equipped with the 2.0T+6AT powertrain have been introduced. Below is an introduction to the Highlander: 1. In terms of exterior design, the most notable change in the facelift is the adoption of a one-piece trapezoidal front grille design. The entire radiator grille has been visually raised, and the lower air dam area has been enlarged, giving the front face a more commanding and harmonious appearance. The tail light design remains unchanged, but LED light clusters have been added internally, serving as a subtle enhancement. The Highlander's grille has transitioned from a larger upper section to a smaller lower section, now fully integrated from top to bottom, forming a seamless trapezoidal shape. The metal chrome horizontal bars have also been changed from one large strip to five smaller ones, adding a touch of aggression. 2. The Highlander is powered by a 2.0T engine with the model code "8AR-FTS," delivering a maximum power of 162kW (220Ps) and a maximum torque of 350Nm. While these figures may not be the most competitive, the actual performance is satisfactory. The Highlander's transmission system features a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, ensuring smooth gear shifts. A hybrid version has also been newly added for consumers to choose from. The new 8-speed automatic manual transmission replaces the previous 6-speed version, offering an even smoother driving experience.
