    Very thorough and informative review! Just one question that I couldn't seem to grasp is at the 12:37 mark you mentioned "you can turn the start/stop with engine off right here"--does that mean there is an automatic engine shutoff by default in the car, so when you're at a stop or at a red light the engine turns off automatically and then turns back on when you accelerate, and that button you referred to would shut that off completely? I really dislike engines that have that auto on/off at a stop tech. Thanks in advance!

    • @GTGarageTalk
      @GTGarageTalk  10 місяців тому +1

      Yes, that is exactly what was meant with that statement. It is a button that would need to be pressed each time you start the vehicle as it defaults that way to claim the EPA fuel economy benefits.

    Finally saw one on the road today. Gotta say, it looked just ok to me. I think its because my wife drives a rav 4, and i feel like ive been seeing that look for years. Other than that, cant wait to test drive. I only wish they didnt make it look so much like a rav 4, and nothing like a highlander. I wonder why it wasnt called grand rav

    My grand highlander hybrid max is almost stalling on some turns, the tranny would shake and it takes a bit for power to kick in. It's hard to replicate. I brought my car in also bc the power would surge on some acceleration. Toyota tried to update the software but it failed up update so they ended up resetting the ECU so the car is working as it should until it relearns my driving habits and will power surge again

I wouldn’t mind it if I was paying 30k for a highlander or 40k for a sequoia. But these prices for the quality don’t convince me one bit . I’ll be better off going with a Ford .
