car_truck“The 2019 Highlander Limited is a reminder that family SUVs don’t have to feel like a compromise; they can feel like a proper premium vehicle,” notes one reviewer, and this Shoreline Blue Pearl example proves the point the moment you open the door. With its rich equipment, confident V6 performance, and genuinely thoughtful cabin technology, this pre-owned, all-wheel drive Highlander Limited stands out as a smart, long-term choice for drivers who want comfort, confidence, and modern connectivity in equal measure.
Under the hood, a 3.5L V-6 with port/direct injection and variable valve control delivers a strong 295 horsepower, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and selectable drive modes. The result is smooth, decisive acceleration and relaxed highway cruising, while the automatic full-time all-wheel drive system and all-speed traction control help you stay composed on wet pavement, winter roads, or rougher surfaces.
Four-wheel disc brakes with ABS and brake assist add reassuring stopping power, and the double wishbone rear suspension with gas-pressurized shocks is tuned for everyday comfort without feeling floaty.
Where this Highlander Limited really moves ahead of many SUVs is in everyday usability and technology. The centerpiece is an 8-inch touchscreen with integrated navigation and Siri Eyes Free voice controls, anchored by a premium JBL audio system with 12 speakers, dedicated JBL Synthesis digital signal processing, and an amplifier. Bluetooth handsfree calling and wireless audio streaming are built in, along with AM/FM/SiriusXM satellite radio and external memory input. Multiple USB ports and three 12V outlets keep devices powered in all three rows, while an interior 120V AC power outlet is ready for laptops, game systems, or work tools when you need true household-style power on the go.
This Highlander Limited is also engineered to enhance smartphone-focused driving.
The central touchscreen interface and voice-control structure are designed to complement modern phone-based navigation, messaging, and media streaming, with steering-wheel controls and Siri Eyes Free helping you keep your hands on the wheel and your attention on the road. The system’s layout and responsiveness make day-to-day use easy and intuitive for drivers who rely heavily on their smartphones for information and entertainment.
Inside, the cabin blends practicality with a near-luxury feel. Leather upholstery covers all three rows, with heated and ventilated front seats and heated second-row seats to keep passengers comfortable in any season. The second row features captain’s chairs with armrests and fore/aft adjustment, creating a spacious, minivan-like feel and easy access to the third row. The driver’s seat offers 10-way power adjustment with power lumbar and memory for two drivers, and the front passenger enjoys power recline and fore/aft control.
A heated leather steering wheel, ambient lighting, and simulated wood and metal-look trim give the interior a polished, upscale character.
The Highlander’s three-row layout is designed for real-world family life. You’ll find sliding and tilting second-row seats, a split-folding third row with manual recline, and a roll-up cargo cover to keep belongings out of sight. The cargo area features concealed storage, tie-downs, and carpeted floor panels, while the flip-up rear windshield and power liftgate with keyfob release provide flexible access when loading groceries or gear in tight parking spaces. Ten beverage holders and multiple storage bins throughout the cabin help keep clutter under control on longer trips.
Comfort extends to climate management as well. Dual-zone front automatic climate control is paired with a separate rear climate system and dedicated rear ducts in both the headliner and under-seat areas, helping passengers in all three rows enjoy consistent temperatures.
A cabin air filter keeps the air fresh, while the panoramic-style sliding glass sunroof with sunshade brightens the cabin and can be opened quickly with its express open/close function.
Driver confidence is supported by an extensive suite of active safety and assistance technologies. Toyota Safety Sense P includes Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Vehicle Sway Warning driver attention alert, and automatic high beams. Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert helps you navigate lane changes and busy parking lots, while an aerial view camera system with front, rear, and side cameras offers a high level of situational awareness during low-speed maneuvers. Front and rear parking sensors, hill start assist, hill descent control, and trailer sway control further boost peace of mind.
The structure is engineered with safety in mind, featuring a fully galvanized body with side impact beams and an extensive airbag array, including front, side, curtain, driver’s knee, passenger seat cushion, and second- and third-row overhead airbags.
Electronic stability control, all-speed traction control, and tire pressure monitoring with low-pressure warning add yet another layer of security.
Exterior design details complete the package. The Shoreline Blue Pearl paint is complemented by 19 x 7.5-inch aluminum wheels with chrome-clad covers, LED daytime running lights, projector-beam headlights, front fog lamps, a rear lip spoiler, roof rails, and body-coloured bumpers and mirrors with integrated turn signals. Rain-detecting wipers, deep-tinted glass, and remote-activated perimeter lighting with puddle lamps enhance visibility and convenience when the weather or lighting is less than ideal.
With just 103,684 kilometers on the odometer and fuel consumption estimates of 12.1 L/100 km city and 9.0 L/100 km highway (regular unleaded), this 2019 Toyota Highlander Limited presents a compelling blend of durability, comfort, and modern technology.
For buyers seeking a well-equipped, all-wheel drive three-row SUV with a strong V6, premium audio, advanced safety, and a cabin tailored to everyday family life, this Shoreline Blue Pearl Highlander Limited is a sophisticated and practical choice.
