Toyota's SUVs feature the latest technology, safety features, and other options that make it challenging to settle on just one vehicle. Toyota offers some of the top SUVs on the market, especially since all models now come standard with Toyota's Star Safety System to keep occupants safe on the road.
Check out the following guide to learn more about Toyota's top SUVs so you can choose the best vehicle that suits the lifestyles of everyone in your family.
RAV4
The RAV4 crossover is ideal for families thanks to ample cargo and passenger room. The 2016 RAV4 is available as a hybrid for eco-friendly drivers and offers up to 34 miles per gallon (mpg) on city streets. All RAV4 trims come with new integrated fog lights and LED lighting on headlights, tail lights, and daytime running lights to make your drive brighter at any time of day. Standard backup cameras supply a view of what's behind you, while the vehicle's second-row seats fold down to offer up to 73.4 cubic feet for sports equipment and luggage.
Land Cruiser
As Toyota's first-ever SUV, the Land Cruiser combines reliable off-road capability with luxurious features for up to eight passengers. Equipped with a V8 engine that emits 381 horsepower, the 2016 Land Cruiser comes with ventilated and heated seats to keep occupants comfortable in any weather, and four-zone automatic climate control that allows passengers to control their own environments. The SUV's eight-speed transmission automatically adjusts based on incline, speed, and throttle input, while Toyota's exclusive new Crawl Control feature allows you to steer effectively through difficult terrain, which you can watch from the conveniently located multi-terrain monitor on the dash.
4Runner
This mid-size SUV is best known for its off-road capabilities. The suspension for the 2016 release features high-performance shocks and specially tuned springs that drive over the worst of terrain, as well as a quarter-inch aluminum skid plate that protects the front so you can effectively navigate rugged trails without damaging your vehicle. The 4Runner suits drivers who crave a reliable off-road vehicle, since 90 percent of all 4Runners sold in the last 10 years are still driving today. With a four-liter V6 engine that emits 270 horsepower, this SUV tows up to 5,000 pounds so you can bring heavy outdoor equipment to your favorite off-road destination.
Highlander
Best known for its powerful engine and roomy cabin, the Toyota Highlander seats up to eight people and was named a Top Safety Pick Plus by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The 2016 Highlander is roomier to accommodate ease of movement and taller passengers and features back seats that fold down to create extra cargo space. The SUV comes standard with a four-cylinder engine that offers 185 horsepower and 25 mpg on highway roads, with the option to upgrade to a V6 engine that generates a whopping 270 horsepower with the same gas mileage.
