The Highlander, imo, was always the "sleekest" SUV in the Toyota family. Looks like the new one will be even moreso (tall Avalon maybe).

This makes me wonder what the future 4Runner will look like. When I was younger, i would always confuse the two.

Taillights remind me of RX. Seems to be a pretty good thing, i guess. The look nice though.

The rear lights do look like an improvement over the current ones, though.

2014 Toyota Highlander Sneak Peek
http://www.carscoops.com/2013/03/201...pek-ahead.html
After telling us that it will stage the world debut of the new generation Highlander at the 2013 New York International Auto Show on March 27, Toyota has now issued the first teaser of its three-row crossover.

The single cropped image suggests the 2014 Highlander will gain a boxier-looking front end with a squared grille featuring chrome elements, and headlamps that stretch back over the wheel arches.

Wow!
I'm not too happy about that design.
I'll have to see it in person.

looks great IMHO, especially interior, miles above previous car.

The lower LEDs look like a JC Whitney LED strip add on.I would rather Toyota used the LED headlight design.
The interior is nice.The present interior is nice too.

Ugh.

Interior looks better quality, will have to sit in it myself to know for sure. Style wise the interior looks a little dated, is it just me?
