Toyota Highlander 2.7 185

The Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 reaches 60 mph in 9.29 s (100 km/h in 9.90 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.07 s, tripping the lights at 80.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.64 s and the eighth mile in 10.96 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Highlander 2.7 185

The 2016 Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 is a front-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,875 kg with 185 bhp, which works out at 99 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.64 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 8,938th quickest to 60 mph, and the 111th quickest of the 311 Toyotas here. Its 80.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 0-60 time?
The Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 reaches 60 mph in 9.29 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,938th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 quarter mile time?
17.07 s at 80.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.96 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.64 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 have?
185 bhp and 1,875 kg, which is 99 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 8 gears and a quoted top speed of 180 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Toyota Highlander 2.7 185?
Closest here on pace: Mitsubishi ASX 2.0 MIVEC 150 (9.29 s), Renault Koleos 2.5 CVT 171 (9.25 s), Honda HR-V 1.5 i-VTEC 130 (9.29 s). Each one can be raced against the Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Toyota Highlander 2.7 185 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
