Best Seats for Family Road Trips

We have a family of five and often go on long road trips. What seats should we choose for the Toyota Highlander to maximize comfort and space?

For a family of five, I highly recommend the Toyota Highlander XLE or Limited trim which offers three rows of seats. The XLE has a standard second-row bench seat with room for three passengers, while the Limited has the option for second row captain's chairs which provides more space and comfort.

To make the most out of your road trips, I would suggest getting the Limited trim with second row captain's chairs. This not only offers more personal space for each passenger, but also allows for easier access to the third row seats. Plus, you can't go wrong with the added luxury features in the Limited trim.

In my experience, the best seats for family road trips in the Toyota Highlander are the third row seats. It may not seem like the obvious choice, but with the third row seats folded down, you can create a flat surface for sleeping. Perfect for those long drives!
