When it comes to providing American families with vehicles that offer the space and power they need, nothing beats the midsize SUV. And in that arena, the Toyota Highlander is the best of the bunch. Let’s take a look at how the 2016 Highlander compares to its rival, the 2016 Honda Pilot‌
With the Honda Pilot, consumers are limited to one option for the engine. The Highlander, on the other hand, comes with three different options: the 185-hp 2.7-liter 4-cylinder, the 270-hp 3.5-liter V6, and a hybrid 280-hp V6. Whether you want power or fuel economy, you’ll find what you’re looking for with the 2016 Highlander.
Thanks to its optional hybrid engine, the 2016 Toyota Highlander is capable of achieving much better gas mileage than the Honda Pilot. Where the standard 6-speed Pilot maxes out at 19 mpg in the city, the Highlander Hybrid manages 27 mpg in the city— an improvement of nearly 10 mpg!
The 2016 Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot are two of the safest cars on the road, having earned both a perfect 5-star overall score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
The Highlander also features some of the greatest modern safety features, such as forward-collision warning with automatic braking, blind spot monitor, parking sensors, and adaptive cruise control. For families that want to stay safe on the road, it’s hard to find a safer vehicle that’s as versatile as the 2016 Highlander.
In addition to its spacious three rows of seating, the Highlander provides extra front leg room over the Pilot. You’ll be thanking Toyota for this on your next family cross-country road trip!
As drivers have come to expect from modern SUVs, the Highlander has an excellent infotainment system, complete with smartphone app integration. And unlike the Pilot, the Highlander’s touchscreen controls come with a volume knob, making it easier to use and less distracting on the road.
In 2015, Toyota set a new sales record for the Highlander, selling 158,915 Highlanders in a single year. The Highlander outsold the Pilot by over 20,000 vehicles! There’s a reason the Highlander keeps growing in popularity every year: it’s simply one of the most reliable and enjoyable vehicles on the road.
