That is a lot of grille, but I am into it. Toyota really did commit to this language, didn't they?



Most notable is the addition of Apple Carplay/Android Auto, and weirdly enough - Amazon Alexa.

Probably an awesome long drive vehicle.

They def overdid the grille, but it seems nice- especially that interior. Glad to see Toyota is getting on the CarPlay train.

Toyota overdid a grille?  :lol:

I find it amazing that so many auto makers have better infotainment interfaces in their mainstream cars than their luxury ones. This is no exception. If this were a Lexus there would be no physical buttons. Just "gestures"

Overall looks pretty good. Agreed on CarPlay ... when we looked at the highlander (and test drove a Camry same day just because) Toyota's proprietary infotainment seemed horrible.  Infotainment in my 4Runner is pretty bad too, but at least in a much simpler old school way.

what's with the cattleguard up-front?



I mostly like it, but I don't care for the angles everyone is obsessed with.

I think they did an excellent job of surfacing the sides. It looks long, low, and sporty. Compared to the Jetta it's quite refreshing.

Best-looking generation since the 1st gen (which wasn't particularly attractive, but didn't look as awkward as subsequent generations).

Looks really sharp in person ... great looking wheels on the one they had on display.
