The 2020 Toyota Highlander L for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2020 Toyota Highlander L for sale by us right now. This page sets out the 2020 Toyota Highlander L for buyers, in plain words.

Recalls and complaints

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Engine and fuel

It is powered by the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

At 10.1 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 30 litres of fuel. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $46.98 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

A good match for

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Space, size and seats

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A test week in the Highlander tells you more than any review. Rent the Highlander for a week and see how it fits your life.

Narrowing it down

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the L with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.66 in fuel.

Java and the Highlander

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Java starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 3,178 km from Java, and does not deliver there.
