CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Platinum; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. The 2021 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Platinum for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Before you sign for the Highlander

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 546 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, service brakes and unknown or other; have those parts checked. There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

What the specs mean

It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Fuel use is rated 6.6 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 20 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $10.23 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$1,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

What the Highlander is like

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Best uses

Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Highlander answers more than any brochure. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Highlander answers the big questions.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$1,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $102.30 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $10.23 in fuel.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Compare the Hybrid Platinum with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
