The Toyota Highlander, a sophisticated and athletic sport utility vehicle, is setting the standards high in its sector. While providing you with a smooth yet hearty drive on the roads near Leesburg, The Villages, and Apopka, Florida, it simultaneously creates an enjoyable environment whether on your way to work or taking a cross-country road trip.
All you have to do is pick the one that suits your needs. Phillips Toyota is here to help drivers near Mount Dora and Clermont, Florida, with this handy guide on the 2021 Toyota Highlander trim levels. Read on to see which one will mesh with your personal style.
L
The base trim of the 2021 Highlander is the L, but this trim is anything but basic. It starts with an efficient performance thanks to a 295-horsepower 3.5L V6 engine paired with Front-Wheel Drive. All-Wheel Drive is also available at this level for more traction and control on challenging road conditions.
Inside, the standard infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen will greet you with helpful features, like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration, Amazon Alexa capability, and in-vehicle Wi-Fi. That’s not where the impressive technology ends either. With Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+, you’ll have the following driver-assistive systems (and more) for the ultimate peace of mind:
- Pre-Collision System with Low-Light Pedestrian Detection
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
- Automatic High Beams
LE
Next up is the Toyota Highlander LE, giving you even more to be excited about in your cabin. The first upgrade you’ll notice is the lavish leather-trimmed shift knob and steering wheel, the latter of which comes with controls for audio, safety, and more, so you can always keep your hands on the wheel.
The multimedia system will also receive a new addition with Remote Connect. This allows you to access your vehicle from afar with the following skills:
- Vehicle status alerts
- Vehicle Finder
- Door lock/unlock
- Remote engine start
XLE
If you’re looking for high-end amenities in your SUV, the Highlander XLE may be for you. This trim gives you even more technology to utilize while behind the wheel, like wireless smartphone charging. Place your compatible phone on the pad and you’ll see full battery life in little time (no cords needed).
Other upgrades you’ll find inside the XLE include:
- Auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink®
- SofTex™-trimmed first- and second-row seats
- 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat
- Second-row captain’s chairs
- 7-inch Multi-Information Display
XSE
Looking for style for miles as well as interior features that allow you to show off in the driver’s seat? Then, the XSE trim level of the 2021 Toyota Highlander could be a perfect match.
On the exterior, 20-inch machined-face alloy wheels and a twin-tip exhaust not only elevate the performance of the Highlander but also make it a joy to look at. Hop inside, and get ready for a luxury-style driving experience with features, like:
- Ambient lighting
- Available leather-trimmed seats
- 6-speaker sound system
Limited
The 2021 Highlander amps things up with the Limited trim level, and it starts with the exterior. This model boasts the coveted hands-free power liftgate with jam protection, making it even easier to load and unload your generous cargo area.
Inside, new technologies and amenities make driving even more pleasant. For example, the Premium Audio, Dynamic Navigation multimedia system is now standard. This adds new features you can access on your touchscreen, like an 11-speaker JBL® sound system and advanced navigation services.
Platinum
For all the most lavish and innovative features the Toyota Highlander has in store, opt for the top-tier Platinum trim with all the bells and whistles.
With this trim, the multimedia system receives an upgrade yet again, this time putting a 12.3-inch touchscreen on your dashboard. This is just the beginning, though. With first-class features like these, it may be hard to leave your cabin:
- Heated seats (first and second row)
- 10-inch color Head-Up Display
- Bird’s Eye View Camera
- Power Panoramic View Moonroof with sunshade
