Compare the Toyota Highlander to the Honda Pilot & Jeep Grand Cherokee | Merrimack Valley Area SUV Comparison

During our many years serving the Merrimack  Valley here at Jaffarian Toyota, we've seen the Toyota Highlander progress from its arrival as a new model back in 2001, one of the first mid-size crossovers on the market, to the astounding yet deserved popularity it enjoys today. Crossover SUVs combine style, sportiness, power, and space - for passengers and cargo - to offer Andover and Lawrence area drivers the perfect combination of features and functionality.

Toyota Highlander vs. Honda Pilot in Haverhill, MA

Putting the Highlander the Pilot side by side reveals many similarities, but there are key differences you'll want to be aware of. Ultimately, it comes down to quality, safety, power and efficiency. Not many vehicles can boast the features and value of the Highlander, and the Pilot is one of those SUVs that falls short. The Jaffarian team knows that Lawrence area drivers demand the best from their vehicle, and that's why we suggest choosing the Highlander. Take a look and see for yourself:

• The Toyota Highlander offers drivers more EPA-estimated city and combined fuel economy over the Pilot, with 20 miles per gallon in the city and a combined 22 miles per gallon in the city and highway.
• While the Highlander and Pilot both give drivers a range of five trim levels, the Highlander also offers three trims of an even more efficient options: the Toyota Highlander Hybrid. You get to enjoy all the features of the Highlander while saving at the pump, an option you won't have with the Honda Pilot.
• When you need that extra bit of power and control, the Toyota Highlander provides it with 295 horsepower and 263 pound-feet of torque, which is more than you'll find behind the wheel of a Honda Pilot. The Highlander shows you don't have to sacrifice performance for efficiency.
• Safety - for drivers and passengers - is a top priority at Jaffarian Toyota, and we've found that it is for many Andover area drivers, too. The Toyota Highlander earned a Five-Star Front Crash Test Rating for passengers from the NHTSA, the highest available, while the Honda Pilot took away only four stars out of five.
