Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

The Highlander Hybrid has grown a few inches since last year, shedding its predecessor's boxiness for a slightly sleeker look.

  • "The all-new, second-generation Highlander Hybrid is bigger inside and out. Built on the Camry/Avalon chassis, the '08 version is four inches longer and three inches wider than the model it replaces. Outside, crisp lines and muscular contours set the tone." -- MSN
  • "Styling differences between the gas-only Highlander and the Highlander Hybrid are minimal; the hybrid has different grille and taillight styling and unique hybrid badges. The Highlander Hybrid has 7.3 inches of ground clearance." -- Cars.com
  • "The old Highlander had a very bland, boxy look that could easily get lost in a crowd. The new iteration has a more distinct, muscular look with more surface development. The overall look now has more of a family resemblance to its larger body-on-frame siblings the Sequoia and Land Cruiser." -- Autoblog Green
