The main feature that many people will want to know about the Hybrid Toyota Highlander SUV is the kind of engine that it has to pull such a big lump, well what it has is a nice sized 3.3 litre engine that has 6 cylinders which helps to push out about 208HP and if you add this to the electric motors which itself gives you 60HP you are pushing out 268HP, ok so you are not going to get as much to the gallon as you would in a Hybrid car but this is an SUV so things are always going to be different, but at least it is better than a SUV that runs solely on Gasoline
What people are going to love about the Highlander SUV is how smooth and how well it handles around corners for such a big car, the extra weight from the electric motors do seem to help make the SUV more stable
What people will also like about this Hybrid is when you are at a complete stop and then you want to pull away you will not get any of the horrible clunking noise that one used to get from a Hyrid car and as the Highlander has 268HP you will get to 60 in around 6.6 seconds

This is very strang as it has both the very negative SUV image and is has very underwhelming eco-friendly attitudes, this car to nmy mind is a contradiction and should be destroyed before it is bought by some ignorent US stereo-types
