About the 2016 Toyota Highlander
If you need a car by the month, read about the 2016 Toyota Highlander here, then request it. There is no long contract: stop at the end of any booking. One booking runs up to 365 days and renews with a new agreement.
Under the hood
Its 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid drives through an automatic (CVT). As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
The combined figure, 8.5 L/100 km, means roughly 26 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $13.18.
Who rents the Highlander
Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Size and space
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
