Is the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander a BETTER midsize SUV than a Mazda CX-90?

[@jtjt8331]

Go Toyota!! I just leased a 2023 Highlander platinum when my lease is up in 2 years, all definitely going for the grand Highlander. My 23 four-cylinder turbo is amazing with power and it’s a gas engine. Can’t imagine what it would be like with the hybrid. Excellent job Toyota as usual. Toyota stands out over any other brand, reliability and resale!!!

[@RaitisRides]

That is so wonderful to hear!

[@tdub25]

Looks real real nice. I'm just sick of these prices. $60k for this thing? Must be nice to have money

[@Skwid-Lives]

Right. 60 G’s is insane. I need a 3rd row vehicle and these prices make me cry.

[@rayvalero8580]

Read my mind. I have two little kids and while my 2022 CRV will suffice, a third row would've been more ideal. But how do they expect me to afford a 50k vehicle? It's survival mode if you have more than 3 kids in this era.

Wait until you register it, especially the hybrid. A lot of states charge you extra for EV and hybrid models.

[@jml9550]

All the haters are saying Toyota will eventually going away, I just don’t see that happening. Yes They are late on EV development. but once they get there, they will strive like they always do.

[@EpticityOG]

@@jml9550 Hear me out they’re probably developing some crazy EV tech in the background, but in the meantime I think they’ll ride high with their superior Hybrid Engines because there is a lot of people who are not ready for EVs especially long trips. And people rather buy a Toyota Hybrid with amazing gas mileage than an EV. I saw that the Hybrid not Max version of this Highlander can get up to 40mpgs that’s crazy given it’s size.

[@jml9550]

@@EpticityOG the GH regular hybrid will get 34/35MPG combined, which is exceptional on such large SUV. The hybrid max will get 27MPG combined. Yes as a long time Lexus household, I asked my wife if she will consider a Tesla Model Y, she rejected that idea. Long story short, wrote a $51K a month or so ago on her 2024 Lexus NX350H, over a month and a half of driving ~1k miles, she have been averaging almost 38-39 MPG, which is exceptionally on an almost 4100 lbs SUV. In fact we have only gassed up twice so far. I am excited to see what Toyota will bring us in the next 5 years or so. If Lexus can offer a 350 miles EV sedan at $55-60K, I will be the 1st one in line with my checkbook, to replace my 2017 ES350, she still drives like the day I brought her home 6 years ago. :)

[@EpticityOG]

@@jml9550 That is crazy good, that’s why Toyota lacking in the EV department isn’t a bad thing, because they won’t be mandatory for a state like California until 2035.

Overall Joe I think Toyota did a bang up job with the Grand Highlander. I like it's sharper edges that it has compared to the Highlander. I think Toyota is turning up the volume knob to 10 lately. And I believe that the 2024 Camry debuts in November.

I know you prefer the hidden rear wiper, but as someone who has it on my 2010 Sienna, it is a giant PITA to replace the wiper and I just gave up after the last time when the wiper is now stuck partially exposed. I will take an exposed rear wiper all day long.

[@adriankuma1-1-1]

Same😤… hidden looks better but PITA to replace!

[@NotesPusher]

I guess I'm in the minority on this one Joe. I don't think this comes close to the Maxda Cx-90. This doesn't look premium at all. The knobs look fake. It's nothing about this vehicle from the style to the knobs inside that looks premium. I saw the Mazda in person and that vehicle screams premium and they did a great job with the size and the overall look. $59k No if I had only $59k to spend Im getting the Telluride or Palisade.

Hey, Joe & Lori, how are you guys doing?? Your in Hawaii today just wanted you both to know, that thanks to you both I finally after watching your KZbin Chanel for sine 2020, bought my new car. I based my decision solely on your great videos… I purchased the 2023 GMC Yukon “Ultimate”. Silver Grey paint snd that beautiful interior. I got the exact same model, colors as the one that You, JOE, showed us in your video!! Thanks for posting your videos, it really helped me decide. I was trying to decide from the JEEP Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve, the Grand Wagoner, and a Land Rover. What do you guys think, did they make a good choice for the money snd what was s offered In each suv. After3 days negotiating the deal, I paid 72,000 out the door, but I did have to pay $800 for North Carolina DMV fees, which that invoice came one month after I bought the car. That was a surprise getting it. In California, out the door means the dealership pays all the fees the first year. So I was definitely surprised, but I do really like the Ultimate trim/model of this Yukon and I know the price is really hood, I got it about 30k below market value right now, so I figure I saved a lot on the price with the purchase. I have enough to pay the dmv fees, no need to be greedy. So Thanks so much for your 2 1/2 years of grsat information!!

How does the base hybrid handle elevation? I love the mpgs on the base hybrid but live in the mountains so perhaps the hybrid max is the most viable option?

I had a feeling you would like this one Susan!

[@mbenton6]

Definitely not better than the mazda. Bigger, yes but not better. By a long shot

[@mbenton6]

4 cylinder and boat feeling... no thanks

[@donaldbrown6607]

I'd love to see the different exterior colors 😁

[@RaitisRides]

I would like to see them as well.

Fantabulous video! Thanx Lori & Joe 💕

It is better than the CX90. I'm a Toyota simp.

AGREED

@@mbenton6 😡. You think people care in this segment if its i6 v6 or i4 turbo .no.people only care about luxury comfort space features performance power gas mileage and more. So be real

Hello great channel and awesome video !! I just bought a Grand Highlander and unfortunately noticed some vibration in the hood, the dealer told me that doesn’t seem normal but there is no current recall for that. They recommend to contact Toyota and raise this issue!! Do you know something more about this? Thank you!!

[@supernels100]

Got so many notifications for this car😂

[@RaitisRides]

Oh I bet! Thank you for watching here!

Highlander all day folks

Take all my money Toyota

[@RaitisRides]

They are ready!

[@jml9550]

The dealer will take more than Toyota. 😊

[@ferencvad8251]

Like everyone else, you forgot to show the ambient lights (evening interior lights). It would be a nice touch to see it.

[@mattmekhaeil]

Toyota has so many suvs i wonder what will happen to the current highlander. My guess is they will keep it and make it a 2 row midsize suv like the venza or just discontinue it

[@volvoxc9086]

CURRENT HIGHLANDER WILL RIVAL THE SANTA FE And SORENTO FOR NOW.

[@RaitisRides]

It is a very interesting setup that they have!

[@RaitisRides]

Good call

[@monkeyking2004]

It's a winner because it actually has real exhaust tips. No ZONK there like the Pilot.

[@kinghill500]

Nice suv

[@RaitisRides]

I’m so glad that you are digging this one!

[@gregatkinson6650]

Any issues hitting the buttons accidentally that are in front of arm rest?
