The 2010 Toyota Highlander is the 2nd generation of this popular midsize crossover. Managed by a smooth 5-speed automatic transmission, it's offered in two drivetrain options: front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Buyers can choose between a standard 270-hp 3.5L V6 engine and a 3.3L V6 hybrid engine producing a combined 209 hp. Available trims include the base, Sport, SE, and top-line Limited. Toyota kept the interior tech-friendly with key features like a 6-inch touch-screen and a six-speaker audio system. Safety-wise, all models flaunt front-seat side airbags, full-length curtain-type airbags, active front head restraints, and antilock brakes. 2010 saw the introduction of a new four-cylinder base model and tweaked exterior and interior styling.
