Pros

  • Bulletproof long-term reliability. The V6 and AWD transmission are nearly indestructible
  • Lowest maintenance costs in the segment; services can be done at any Toyota dealer
  • Very quiet, soft, plush cabin - extremely relaxing on the highway
  • Excellent value, coming in well under your budget cap

Cons

  • Slowest acceleration in the group (0-60 in 5.6s) and engine needs to rev high to feel power
  • Aesthetics and infotainment feel dated compared to the high-tech Mercedes or BMW cockpits
  • Heavy curb weight makes it feel less agile in tight corners
