Toyota Highlander 2021: the ideal partner for family trips

The 2021 Toyota Highlander is in its second year in its new form on the market and its success is clear. For families looking for the perfect travel partner, the Highlander offers everything one could want when space and versatility are needed.


Up to 8 seats


The Toyota Highlander offers a very functional interior. For the family, it's hard to ask for better, as the interior can be configured to really meet our needs. If space is needed to accommodate as many occupants as possible, the Highlander can accommodate up to 8 passengers. If occupant comfort is important in the second row, for example for older teenagers, it is possible to configure the interior with captain seats. These can even be heated and ventilated for maximum comfort.


And if your kids’s activities involve the use of a tablet, you can add universal brackets to the front seats so they can be installed; very useful when it comes time to watch a movie. 


And if that's the space that you need, you are also served very well. By removing the third row, 1150 liters are freed, and the total volume can be increased to 2387 liters by folding the seats in the second row.


And speaking of this cargo space, it is possible to protect it with the cargo compartment liner, offered as an accessory. A safety net can also be installed in the rear, as can a luggage cover to keep your belongings safe when you are on the road.


If your family activities require towing a boat or a trailer, there is nothing to worry about as the gasoline version of the Highlander can tow 5,000 pounds. With the hybrid variant, the capacity reaches 3,500 pounds. On the roof, crossbars can be installed, which increases the possibilities for attaching equipment, whether it is a roof rack, a bicycle, or skis. 


Finally, for those with a more developed technological fibre, thanks to Toyota's connected services, you can have access to the Destination Assist function, accessible with the Entune Premium 3.0 version of the multimedia system. This gives you access to a personal assistant who can help you find a destination. The assistant can even send the coordinates of the location in question to the vehicle's navigation system.


Taking a family trip with a Toyota Highlander means leaving with peace of mind.
