Thank you, so glad you like the new segment, there are some great questions.

Team Motormouth, I finally saw one of these on the road here in Ontario this week and had a chance to chat with the owner. It amazes me that this 3 row CUV gets better mpg in city/suburban driving than an ordinary Civic or Corolla. That new Hybrid Sienna is just as impressive.

Can we rely on full available power from both fuel and electric engines to always be there? The battery must sometimes be too low and have less energy or the fuel engine'power be used to charge battery, I always wondered about power and torque consistency with these cars.

We have a 2017 HH. Best fuel use to date has been (summer) combined city/highway is 6.47 L/100km. Great vehicle all round.

Is this the Platinum model? I was under the impression that only the Platinum model has the panorama roof and that they only come with 2 captains seats in the middle row, but the model you were driving has a bench seat in the middle row.

Great review My Friends 😁🤝😎👍

Does they have the nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries?

I never noticed the key until u mentioned it… now I cant unsee it

I purchased just today. I like such economical vehicle.

Toyota doesn't quote torque numbers on their hybrids, so how do you know it's up in torque vs the previous gen Highlander hybrid? (Not saying you're wrong, just asking how you know this fact.)

Just picked up a 2020 rav4 hybrid and I’m blown away. As my last 10 cars were bmw or Audi, it rides really smooth. Now a German car it ISNT, but man I love my 5.6l/100 kms im getting and I’ll be able to sell it 4 years later with 40k kms at a nominal loss 👏🏻

Does this hybrid have enough power for a 4 cylinder if you go up a hill with two other heavy adults inside? If it has the same power as the V6 gasoline one, then I will be more geared towards the hybrid.

Too bad 2021 sienna hybrid doesn’t come with removable second row seats. Therefore, I’m looking to get the 2021 highlander hybrid limited to use as a travel/camping vehicle, aka “hotel Prius”. The limited also has 110 outlet rated to 1500 watts, and safety sense 2.5. Comments?

I test drove and liked the vehicle. I wanted to buy it for the cost of ownership and reliability advantages. However, I selected a different vehicle (wait for it...a Kia Telluride, with extended warranty) largely because the Highlander front door ingress was so inconvenient. The combination of seat height, rake of the windshield and low roof made ingress very awkward. I had to do a very uncomfortable sideways limbo if entering normally or dive in head first. I'm only 5'10" and I'm much more leg than trunk. No other test-driven vehicle in this class had that same problem. (By the way, the 2021 Sienna mini-van had the same ingress problem, but worse.).

I really like your videos. Thorough reviews. I wish you would dare to refere to the ‘’carbon footprint’’ as a benefit to environment and not a detriment. After all, all this carbon dioxide that is also in sparkling water, Champagne and beer, is essential plant food. If you dont , dont worry i still love your channel ;-)

Thanks

An absolutely brilliant review guys! It was thorough, well filmed and entertaining. I wish I was as excited with the vehicle. I don’t doubt how well it is made and how it may sell. This new Toyota will do well and there is a market. But it’ll take more than a ‘pretty woman’ to get me to even consider a test drive.... especially as a hybrid. I loved the video, but felt lukewarm about the ride. Who will like it? The Kia/Hyundai group, obviously. Telluride/Palisade (despite being non-hybrids) sales, I suspect, will benefit from this new Toyota redesign and price point. Thanks for the video and have wonderful Thanksgiving.

I am so glad that Andrea mentioned reducing one's carbon footprint a number of times because in American reviews on hybrids the focus is mainly on increased fuel economy, which yes, is important, but not as important as reducing toxic emissions. European car reviews are similar in that they do mention reducing one's carbon footprint and talk about environmental concerns.

Ford Explorer has a poor iihs crash rating should be mentioned.

The only major technology improvement for the 2020+ Ford Explorer is in my opinion going back to Rear Wheel Drive. Exterior re design looks nice but too many other flaws and lack of more R/D in attempt to meet marketing deadlines not what makes sense. Coming from a 2018 Explorer I can honestly say that the Highlander being almost 6000 Lbs is a lot for any four cylinder engine. Especially Hybrid. My Buddy just got a AWD 2021 Platinum Hybrid and power train aside I think he made a good choice. I am not Anti Hybrid on just the Highlander, I am anti Hybrid in general. I probably wouldn’t turn away as a rental but wouldn’t go actively looking. The good news is the Hybrid drivers make my line at the Costco fuel pump shorter!!!

SUV's are the way to go if you wish to have "some" off-road capability. The highlander is far from a true off-roader, but it can handle bumpy rides up a mountain trail better. This is a good SUV for a family that likes to go hiking once in a while, or needs some more clearance for unplowed snow roads after a fresh snowfall.
