Make Toyota Escondido Your Choice for Test Driving a New Highlander Hybrid
Toyota Highlander Hybrid in San Diego
With an interior that was revamped for 2008 with "Lexus-like levels of luxury and refinement," according to caranddriver.com, and 150 cubic feet of interior space, you and your passengers will feel rewarded for driving this Highlander. The drivetrain is a combination of gasoline and electric, and it is able to function on both, or one, depending on driving speed and acceleration. The Highlander Hybrid shows its gas saving abilities most heavily in the city, where it can run only on its electric motor in stop and go traffic. There is also no need to plug it in, since the brake friction replaces energy lost by the battery. If you drive this Highlander you'll be saving gas to the tune of 27 MPG city and 25 MPG highway. The horepower is 209, which isn't too far behind the original Highlander. And it's nice to know that Electronic On-Demand 4-wheel drive with intelligence also comes standard.
Every new Highlander Hybrid is stylishly accented with a silver-painted grille, color-keyed foldable power outside mirrors, blue-tinted headlamp and taillamp bezels, chrome door handles, and a unique Hybrid grille with a chrome surround. The proof is in the picture! The new Highlander Hybrid also includes those super convenient exterior elements, like washer-linked variable intermittent windshield wipers, a UV reduction glass windshield, an in-glass antenna with FM diversity reception, and a rear window electric defogger and intermittent wiper. You'll also be glad to know that every new Hybrid comes with the Cold Weather Package, which includes a windshield de-icer grid and heated power outside mirrors. You can even take all of your stuff with you if you drive a new Highlander Hybrid. Each comes equipped with a Hybrid Towing Prep Package that includes a 3500-lb. towing capacity, 240-watt fan coupling, a heavy duty radiator, a prewired harness, and a transmission oil cooler with a water cooler.
Each new Highlander Hybrid comes with convenient and luxurious interior refinements that include a tilt/telescopic adjustable leather steering wheel with audio and multi-information display controls, front defroster-linked CFC-free air conditioning with an air filter, a remote keyless entry system and a Smart Key System that includes push button start and remote illuminated entry (if you have a pace maker check with your doctor before activating the Smart Key System). Other interior accoutrements include an auxiliary audio jack, power windows with driver auto up/down, and power door locks.
We're not done yet! You'll also enjoy the 3.5-inch multi-function display that includes a backup monitor (for making backing up easier), cruise control, and a center console with six cup holders.
With all of the standard safety features on the new Highlander Hybrid it's little surprise that it received five stars for the driver and five stars for the passenger in government safety side crash tests and five stars for the driver and four for the passenger in frontal crash tests. You'll feel secure knowing that the 2009 Highlander Hybrid comes with the Star Safety System with Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management, which can help drivers to maintain control on adverse road conditions. It includes Anti-lock Brakes, Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Brake Assist, Vehicle Stability Control, and Traction Control. Highlander Hybrid's designers definitely haven't skimped on safety. You'll find a whole armada of air bags including driver and front passenger front seat-mounted side airbags, three-row roll-sensing side curtain airbags, and a driver's knee airbag. Other safety and security features include active headrests to help prevent whiplash, Hill Start Assist Control, 3-point shoulder belts in all seating positions, child-protector rear door locks and an engine immobilizer.
