Even with all the (admittedly incredible) new features and capabilities that the 2020 Telluride has to offer, there’s still no debate as to whether or not it can beat the 2019 Highlander in the ring. Toyota’s entry into the mid-size SUV market can deliver lighting fast built-in Wi-Fi, as well as a wealth of interior safety innovations that can help you stay secure on the road in ways that the 2020 Telluride can’t provide quite yet. Some of these include:

  • Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
  • Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
  • Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
  • Automatic High Beams
  • Many more!

It’s because of all these that the 2019 Toyota Highlander still has a strong claim to the top of the SUV throne in the American market.
