The 2017 Toyota Highlander for buyers
No 2017 Toyota Highlander is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is the 2017 Toyota Highlander for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
Before you sign for the Highlander
There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. NHTSA has 274 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, unknown or other and engine. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
Engine and fuel
Its 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid drives through an automatic (CVT). It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
The EPA rates it at 8.2 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 25 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $38.13 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What the Highlander is like
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
When the Highlander makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Highlander first, and buy only if it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.71 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Ask us
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2017 Toyota Highlander from us first.

Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a 2017 Toyota Highlander for you and reply within one business day.
