The 2018 Toyota Highlander Hybrid SUV fares well in the midsize SUV segment. Adding $3,590 to the price of the standard gasoline variant, the Highlander hybrid carries a base price of $36,870 and is offered in 4 trims, reaching a price of $48,480 for its top trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 3.5L V6 supported by a 288-volt electric system. Mated to a CVT automatic transmission, it makes 306 horsepower and 215 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 23 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 29 MPG, making the increase in sticker price worth it. The performance of the Highlander hybrid remains at par with the gasoline variant, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Toyota offers the same 9 colors for the Highlander hybrid. The Highlander hybrid competes against the Acura MDX Hybrid and the Lexus RX 450hL Hybrid.
