The first question anyone asks about a high-mileage hybrid is the battery, so here is the answer up front. Toyota covers the hybrid battery on this generation of Highlander for 10 years or 150,000 miles from the original in-service date, and that coverage transfers to the next owner. At 128,646 miles on a 2022, the single most expensive component in this vehicle is still inside the factory's own warranty — which is not something you can say about the transmission in a gas SUV at this mileage. Ask us and we will show you in writing exactly where this VIN stands. It reframes the whole listing: this is not a high-mileage hybrid you are taking a chance on. It is one Toyota is still standing behind.

The hybrid part is the reason to want a Highlander in the first place. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder with Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive — the same fundamental system Toyota has refined across more than 25 years and tens of millions of vehicles — returns roughly 50 percent better fuel economy than the gas Highlander of the same year. For a three-row SUV that hauls a family, that is the difference between filling up every week and filling up every ten days. The electric motors do the low-speed work in the school line and the Publix lot; the engine does the highway. You do not plug it in, and you do not think about it.

Bronze Edition was a limited run, and it is the one people remember. Toyota offered it for only two model years, built on the XLE Hybrid with a specific look: 18-inch bronze-finished alloy wheels, bronze-accented Graphite SofTex seating with bronze stitching, bronze interior trim, and unique floor mats — offered in a short list of colors that included Wind Chill Pearl, a $425 premium paint, a layered white with real depth that makes the bronze wheels read as deliberate rather than decorative. It carries the XLE's second-row captain's chairs, heated front seats, a power moonroof, three-zone automatic climate control, a power liftgate, and smartphone mirroring for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The safety content is complete. Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+: a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection that watches the road ahead and can brake on its own, full-speed dynamic radar cruise control that holds your following distance down to a stop in traffic, and lane tracing assist that keeps you centered while it runs.

A word on the mileage. At 128,646 miles this Highlander has been driven — that is why it is priced where it is. But a Toyota hybrid at this mileage is a specific kind of used vehicle: the regenerative braking means the brake pads last far longer than a conventional SUV's, the engine has spent a large share of those miles switched off, and the battery is still covered. It has been through our reconditioning process, and the full inspection report is yours to read before you drive it.

This Highlander comes with our Platinum 12-Month/12,000-Mile Warranty already attached — a $1,395 value, included at no additional cost — which is coverage that starts on your purchase date regardless of what the factory terms say. Toyota's basic and powertrain coverage have run their course at this mileage; the hybrid battery warranty is the one that may still apply, and we will show you the paperwork.
