Hey Jeff, would you be able to request for us consumers that the 12.3 screen allow full screen navigation and CarPlay/android auto? I find it very unsafe when I am driving and there are 2-3 things happening on the screen. I’m not sure how to file a complaint about this.
I have a 2021 Highlander Platinum and this vehicle is nice! Quiet, refined. Great ride! I powder coated the rims black. It’s Blizzard Pearl with a Caramel interior.
Subscriber from canada , wanted a rav4 prime but bought a venza, love it but wish it had towing capacity, ill upgrade to a venza prime or highlander hybrid
The Highlander Hybrid has a 3,000 lb towing capacity and the V6 model has a 5,000 lb towing capacity. The hybrid gets 35 mpg hwy and 35 mpg town driving. The V6 gets 23 hwy and under 20 in town. The V6 has more power on the top rpm ranges but the 4 cylinder has a faster takeoff because of the electric motors. Hopes this helps.
Where are the TWO 12V DC outlets located? I'm sure one is in the lower dash. But where is the other - inside the arm rest center console? It's cool there is a 120V AC outlet but I really wish there was an outlet in the back like at least one of the 12V DCs. Many people have DC coolers now and you're gonna want to plug them in without running a cord through the whole car.
I really like these new Highlanders a lot. I think this new body style is so nice. I would love to have one of these but the cost is just way too high for me and has way more room and power than what I need. I really have no need at all for a third row of seating cause I don't have any kids. Also don't really need all that extra power for pulling things. If I was to get one I would want to get it in a hybrid for the better gas milage. I really like the look of the XSE model a bit more so and really wish they would make that into a hybrid. Maybe some day I will get one but for now I will stick with my Rav4 Hybrid XSE.
@@davidandrews8007 depending on gas prices and how much driving you do it’d be good to consider the hybrid version. It’s only a 1 to 2 thousand more and is potentially future proofing you in case gas prices continue to rise. 4165 7500. Let’s say you drive conservatively drive 15,000 miles in a year and gas cost you $5 a gallon (at least in California). The hybrid gets around 36 miles per gallon, whereas the gas model gets around 20. Driving 15,000 miles in a gas only car will cost about $3750 @20 miles per gallon. Driving the hybrid 15,000 miles will cost about $2083 @36 miles per gallon in a perfect world. The difference is about $1667 or about the cost to upgrade to the hybrid system. Obviously it depends on gas prices for where you live as well as how much you’ll be driving around. Depending on the cost of gas and your daily mileage it may take 1 to 4 years to pay for the hybrid upgrade.
Yep the Hybrid is the way to go. The hybrid drivetrain has a 100,000 mile warranty and the battery has a 150,000 mile warranty. 35 plus mpg is way better than 23 mpg on the V6. The hybrid also is rated at 35mpg in town driving. The V6 under 20. The 8 speed auto trans in the V6 is always gear hunting because it immediately wanted to go into the two overdrive gears. The hybrid’s ECVT trans shifts seamlessly
Hey Jeff , can you do a demo of Toyota’s new cloud navigation system and also do you know if older Toyota vehicles will get the new navigation system update?
I'm torn between this and a Pathfinder. Nissan has the rear center console and a little better layout of the function buttons and an easier access to the rear seats with one button. The one drawback is the ZF 9 speed. You can't beat the Toyota quality and the towing is at 5k w/ the V6. I believe you have to get the AWD to get the 6k on the Nissan.
The app sucks!! I use that too although I knew about the lock button remote start. The app may be slow, but for me it is way more convenient. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Hi Jeff thanks.i have a question though.if toyota is still making a 2022 highlander without cvt engine and hybrid why can't they make the sienna same thing for those who do not want the cvt engine.i.want the 2021 or 2021 sienna but I don't like hybrid.what do you think is going on with toyota because I want a minivan
Scrutinizing painful to watch. If you are funny or not is a matter of opinion, like any comedy or comedian. I skipped the nonsense 56 times to get to the information I wanted. You might want to check your audience retention graph inside your RUclips Studio analytics. Just remember that people click on your video to learn about the vehicle they are about to purchase or interested to learn more about and NOT your ‘funny’ antics. If you enjoy comedy, open up a separate RUclips channel about comedy and you will attract the right audience who will identify with your style of comedy. Other than that, the content of this video (the parts where you actually talked about the vehicle) was very informative, well done and helpful. I hope you take this as constructive criticism and as positive feedback to grow your channel with the right audience. Cheers to your success matey! 👍🏻👍🏻
Ripped off 1500 over msrp i bought one! No cd player, no 11 conductor tow connecter only a 4 pin no hookup for electric brakes traylers! No luggage rails … extra $ $63,000 yea i bought one! They dont change oil n filter till 10,000 miles! Toyota care a joke!
Leave a comment to say Hi! Thanks for watching :) Jeff
If Jeff sees a strap he's gonna pull it. ✅
@@toronado455 I mean right??!!!???
We have a 2021 limited with all the bells and whistles. You're right, a perfect road trip vehicle
So , does worth the money ? I am confused between highlander and blazer

Love this guy! Looking to buy the platinum hybrid for the wife.
REALY REALLY EXCELLENT REVEIW!!! Answered ALL my questions. Luv this car. I want it. Thanku showing EVERYTHING 😁
Nice sienfield reference. Just got my wife the platinum in silver. She loves it!!

Nice! Im planning to do black rims as well!
@@evomaster9232 black rims ! Sounds sick 🤙
Me instead of getting a RAV4 2021 should look for this beautiful Highlander, more room, more power, more technology, and more money.
trust me she pulls brotha

Agreed. Im going with highlander over other hybrids due to towing capacity
U know what, I live in Virginia but I will drive to NC and and buy a highlander from him. He made me like toyotas anyway
Hi George!!

My favorite scene is the Runaround.
Love this video I've the same model just with grey interior.
It was great to hear that Toyota has announced full production starting in December!
That's great news, got a link to the news?
I have the black platinum 2022 can you tell me what’s the difference between the platinum 2021 and 2022
Good morning
Does the passenger seat recline all the way back?
( Sciatica issues)

I do not know if I should get a hybrid because we do not drive a lot of miles per year.

@@josephyang3260 Thanks I was wondering about transmission shifting. Possibly better on hybrid.

Also engine is always shutting off at stops.
Thank you, which dealership selling it by MSRP Price ?
I am looking for an Toyota Highlander XSE Midnight Black 2022 let me know if you have it please. Thank you.
Love this color. Three of our Camrys are this color. Love the Highlander Platinum. Thanks for the video!
I just ordered the 2022 Platinum Highlander AWD Hybrid in pearl red with a Carmel interior. Can’t wait to get it!
Hey Jeff , can you do a demo of Toyota’s new cloud navigation system and also do you know if older Toyota vehicles will get the new navigation system update?
Does the 2022 Highlander XLE come with the 12.3" infotainment as an option or still stuck with the generic 8" screen?
Still has the 8" screen with no option of the larger screen
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 Jeff
It would look good in white.
Enjoyed your video! Certainly is a beautiful vehicle for sure!
I assume the hybrid has a cvt. The cvt would be a lot smoother shifting that 8 speed transmission.
You are correct that the hybrid has a cvt. Toyota makes one of the best cvt transmissions I've experienced.
Another great video, Jeff!
How much is the markup? 😬 The Highlander will be on our shopping list next year, after the market cools down
I’m not sure it was at another dealer
@@Toyotajeff love your videos ☺️
Hey Jeff does a bed fit in this car when you fold down the 2nd and 3rd row seats?
What’s “a bed”? (What dimensions?)
@@tommaj5657 A bed to sleep on.
Hi is there no way to get platinum highlander second row bench seat
Love his energy
Do you have any higglanger with Ruby flair pearl with caramel interior?
No but you can order one if you want.

Im gonna buy this for my dad 😊
Wow. I had no clue hitting lock two times then holding it did the remote start. I’ve been using the Toyota app which is way slower
The app sucks!! I use that too although I knew about the lock button remote start. The app may be slow, but for me it is way more convenient. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
great review!
Very entertaining review! you're hilarious.
Hi Jeff thanks.i have a question though.if toyota is still making a 2022 highlander without cvt engine and hybrid why can't they make the sienna same thing for those who do not want the cvt engine.i.want the 2021 or 2021 sienna but I don't like hybrid.what do you think is going on with toyota because I want a minivan
Jeff, You look cold, what's the temperature down there?
Thanks for the video.i love the highlander
What is the Pricing on this Vehicle?
MPG is Great on this , suspension is great
Can you get a Platinum without all that silly glass on top?
Toyota should’ve included auto folding mirror.
I have a 2021 highlander platinum awd
Yep very big oversight. Paying 50k for a vehicle and not having it is not cool. Especially when the Sienna has it.
It's smooth and comfortable with superior infotainment and safety features, but far from quiet...
Thanks for your comments! I appreciate you being here
2022 limited and platinum have new accoustic glasses
Can you do a review on toyota sequioa 2023?
I love the platinum model and I have 2015 platinum thank you for your video
You’re welcome! My wife has a 2021 Limited but I kind of wish we had gotten Platinum
@@Toyotajeff may be on future 😁🥰🥰😍🙏🙏
Jeff do you no longer work there?
Yes I still work at Fred Anderson Toyota…since 2005 :) I enjoy visiting other dealerships from time to time
Just bought a white platinum in white with the caramel interior. I’m in love with it. I purchased it based on all your highlander reviews.
In love with it? Strange thing to say.
I got same one,do you have any window shield whistling noise after 40 miles per hour? I just send it back to the dealer ship
@@keyaoliu683 no noise at all. Don’t hear what everyone’s complaining about
I liked this video such a nice person👍
I wish the panoramic roof opened up all the way
I bought this model…except my lather seats are gray/dark.
Inside is very nice. The outside is very plain and cheap looking. Cant tell it apart from any other SUV.
I wish the Highlander have a 4.0L V6 engine 😋 slightly more power 😁
It would get worse gas mileage as well. It’s already iffy at 23 mpg hwy and under 20 mpg in town driving.
Don’t quit your job to be a comedian
Well, hoo boy, i want it
I was waiting to see the coconut burner as it is
Hello can you do highlander xle
Seems the only thing missing is AWD.
Yes but there is snow mode I think that will take care of it
@@ireneirene4866 True. But when you didn't grow up with snow and ice, you get all the help you can!
There is a model with awd
@@josephyang3260 I knew about the AWD model but I was just saying this one wasn't.
So pretty much this is a budget Lexus Rx 350??
don't forget GAP insurance
This interior color will not age well. I’m speaking from experience with my old Rav4 with same color
I'm sold
I can buy 30 years of vacation for the price of this car "Wtf". 🚗
Very nice car!
A good car
Hi.. I am from Montreal 😊.. Nice
