Were we right? Or were we right? The new 2023 Toyota Highlander did not come to play. This magnificent SUV came prepared to dominate the competition at every turn.

Although both models offer available all-wheel drive and a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds,4,5 the Honda Pilot is no match for the Toyota Highlander model’s conveniences. Turn up the tunes with its available 11-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system, which includes a subwoofer and amplifier,6 and enjoy no-cost maintenance for 24 months or 25,000 miles (whichever comes first).8 The Honda Pilot may also seem like a good option, but when it comes down to functionality, versatility and driver perks, the new 2023 Toyota Highlander is the right choice.
