Welcome to my video on the 2023 Toyota Highlander LE!
Since 2001, the Toyota Highlander has offered reliable 3-row transportation with plenty of comfort, and cargo space to boot. It has grown in size and technology over the years. The gas model is the tried and true, simple AWD Toyota that we all know and love.
But the Highlander has gone through big changes for 2023! With an updated powertrain, and some new software, the 2023 Highlander is actually much different than the 2022…even though they LOOK the same.
In this video we will cover the exterior, engine and drivetrain, then make our way inside to talk about the space and style in the 2023 Toyota Highlander LE. We will also take it for a quick spin in the lot to talk about how driving feels.

I love the classic look of a black Highlander with those bright allow wheels! Enjoy everyone!
We were so overwhelmed when we came with our new 2023 Highlander XLE and you were great at explaining everything clearly. Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
Good job, Brian! You make a lot of excellent points, and make them easy to understand.
I appreciate that!
Really enjoy your reviews, especially the LE,the base trim.
Thanks!
I have this exact AWD trim in an older vehicle, jade green. Best vehicle I’ve ever owned! I’m waiting for a big update on this exterior. It’s overdue!
Coming soon!
Nice car
Thanks for the review. We bought the Limited simply because they didn’t have an XLE on the lot. Love the extra stuff on it, but it is more than we really needed. Anyway, it was cheaper than the Platinum they had.
Thanks for watching! Limited is amazing ✨
Hey Brian, it is a really great model of TOYOTA that in my perspective it is an impressive combination of all or most TOYOTA models, and you really did a great work in this review of the model and wonderful style and colour of the Highlander.
Excellent job Brian 👏
Waiting for more videos from you brother.
Sending all my love from Egypt 🇪🇬
Peace ✌️
Thanks for watching! The Highlander is very popular here. Which model is most popular by you?
Here in Egypt: Fotuner (2400cc & 4000cc) & CHR (1200cc Turbo) for the crossovers, Corolla (1600cc only) & Yaris (1500cc & 1300cc).
As you notice most of them are in the economical range 🙂
In the gulf countries like: KSA, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Uman Bahrain, actually they have the diversity of most Toyota brands 😉
The Fotuner is really nice. Of course as an American I’m naturally attracted to the 4000 (or as we say, the “4.0” or the “4 liter”) the diversity of Toyota on your side of the world is awesome!
If I live in Egypt or any other of the countries you mentioned, the first thing I would do is find a window tint shop and get the ceramic window tint to protect the inside of the car, and my skin. LLumar makes a great one that’s so strong, you don’t even have to get dark windows to feel the effect!
Yes we call it here in Egypt the thermal isolation, but somebodies installed it and some of them reported as high quality and some said that it is not original and useless, so before you get the thermal isolation you need to verify first the quality of manufacturing 😉
Hello Brian, Love your videos, I watched a few of them before purchasing my 2023 Tacoma which I love (TRD Sport, Windchill Pearl, Double Cab, Long Bed, Perf Exhaust, Adv Tech Pkg). I am curious about the LED Headlights with sequential turn indicators. I have seen many videos on them, but they were only available on Pro trim in 2023. Please consider doing a video on this topic for folks who want to upgrade (mod) as the headlights are available as OEM parts and several videos are out there about upgrading but it's not clear when they stopped being a general "option", why you need an aftermarket wiring harness for OEM parts etc. Your videos are pretty authoritative as a Toyota person.. Please consider.
Nice truck! ua-cam.com/video/BZykdoscst4/v-deo.html
Overall I saw the led lights as an available option for 2023 and sold several trucks with them. I’m sure they’re pricey. Last I looked for OEM they were over $700 each. From the factory they’re $495 for the entire package if it came on the truck from the production plant.
Hey Brian, thank you for the response. The description of the lights from the Advanced Technology Package with options that I purchased is "LED headlights and fog lights - includes LED headlights with LED DRL and black bezel LED fog lights" which is the same description as the $485 package. But the confusion is that the lights I have, have the "L" shaped LED DRL and not the sequential turn signals. The sequential turn signal lights only appear in the specifications for the Pro trim level at this point. So wondering if/when the above description changed for other trim models.@@brianruperti
Ah interesting. So the difference comes down to the option code used by your dealer. My store uses LG to code for the sequential signal led lights. We still get off road and sport Tacomas with these lights. Pro shares the same light but also has the TRD and PRO engraved in the lights but overall same style. They are available still and did not change at least in my region.
2023 XLE Hybrid AWD is a great level. Picked one up for $1,000 off MSRP in NH in April. Got it with door edge guards, all weather mats, and wheel locks. We get at least 37.7 mpg real world mileage. Current tank is over 40 mpg. All this for a few thousand more than this model. Highly recommend.
👌🏼
When do we press the button on the gear, please make a video about it
Super nice #Highlander 🛞
How do I fix A Black out on the Radio screen on a 2014 Avalon?
So Brian, what is the solution for my radio screen Black out of my 2014 Avalon .Thank you.
@ted.n9609 I’m not sure it could be many different things. It’s best to pay to have Toyota diagnose it.
Nice hat
Thanks
Shifting gears in Toyota RAV4 LE 2021, more information please
Nice, but no hybrid no sale. ⛽️
It’s far too big for city driving and parking. This vehicle would be a transport truck in Asia or Europe.
2024 Redesign RAV4 hybrid a far better value and choice. ✅
How’s Toyota delivery looking like? Are we still at years or down to months?
My store has always been just a couple months out for most vehicles.
@@brianruperti
Will you stock more in the future ?
Highlander hybrid is very hard to come by at this time not sure why
@@brianruperti
Everyone wants apiece of the Topgun. Toyota 👍
Love hybrid highlanders
not good in gas consumption. I tried it for 3 day drive
What was your mpg?
When do we press the button on the gear, please make a video about it
Please explain what you are asking and I will be happy to answer
@@brianruperti I mean the button on the gear, must I press on it every time, for example when I change the shift from P to D, should I press the button on the gear every shifting ?
@@brianruperti I have Toyota RAV4 LE 2021 awd, there is a button on its gear and I don’t know how to use it
I have Toyota RAV4 LE 2021 , there is a button on the shifter and I don’t know how to use it
I believe the button is only needed when moving from P or from D. This would mean if you are in R, you should be able to easily slide into P or D without pressing. I could be wrong as I don’t have a car with me now to demonstrate.
