2019 Highlander: Passenger and Cargo Space
When looking for a large SUV, youāll want to be sure that thereās plenty of space for passengers of all sizes. The 2019 Toyota Highlander offers tons of room with seating for up to eight passengers, depending on whether you choose the second-row bench or captainās chairs.
With comfort also comes style, and the Highlander isnāt your typical soccer mom cruiser. Youāll find available leather upholstery, along with heated front- and second-row seats. The third row is easily accessible, too, thanks to the sliding second row.
Plenty of passenger space means you might need some extra room in the trunk. With the third row folded, the Highlander will give you 42.3 ft3 of cargo space; fold down the second row as well, and youāll open up to an impressive 83.7 ft3, which is plenty of space to buy that piece of furniture youāve had your eye on!
Powering the Highlander
Under the hood of the 2019 Highlander, youāll find a base 2.7L 4-cylinder engine that puts out 185 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. If thatās not enough power, opt for the 3.5L V6 engine, which puts out 295 horsepower and 263 lb-ft of torque.
If fuel economy is a deciding factor when choosing a large SUV, the Highlander excels in its class. With the V6 engine, youāll achieve an EPA-estimated 20/27 MPG city/highway ā so youāll finally be able to bypass those rest stops on the way to your next family vacation spot!
Speaking of family vacations, you might want to bring something extra along with you, which is where the Highlanderās towing capacity comes into play. Pull up to 1,500 pounds when properly equipped, and youāll see how the Highlander can help to make your getaways even more fun.
