Now that both SUVs have finally arrived, we want to help you decide between the two by providing an in-depth comparison of their performance, comfort, price, and other features. Performance and Engine Options Both the Highlander and the Pilot deliver a capable performance on the Jacksonville roads, but only the Toyota SUV comes with an optional hybrid powertrain. If you're looking to save money on rising gas prices, choose a Highlander Hybrid, which comes equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and two electric motors. The hybrid system makes a combined 243 horsepower. In gas-powered models, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine makes 265 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. With this powertrain, the Highlander can tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. Under the hood of a Honda Pilot, you'll find a 3.5-liter V-6 engine. The Pilot delivers 285 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. With this engine, the Pilot can also tow up to 5,000 pounds. Off-Roading Capabilities While you won't tear up the trails in either SUV, both the Highlander and the Pilot offer some off-roading capabilities if you find yourself on uneven terrain. The Highlander comes standard with front-wheel drive, but two all-wheel-drive systems are available. The optional dynamic torque vectoring all-wheel drive sends power to the rear wheels while managing the torque distribution between the left and right wheels, ensuring the SUV can keep a firm grip on the road. All-wheel-drive Highlanders also come with multiterrain select modes, including mud and sand, rock and dirt, snow, and normal, for better traction in all conditions. The Pilot comes standard with front-wheel drive and offers all-wheel drive as an available option. The all-wheel-drive system allows the clutch packs to engage separately if one rear wheel loses traction on slippery roads. Five drive modes come standard in the Pilot, but some models add modes for trails and sand. Interior and Comfort The Highlander and the Pilot each offer seating for up to eight passengers. Some models of both SUVs come with second-row captain's chairs, which reduce the passenger capacity to seven. Inside the Highlander, premium materials and creature comforts will elevate your ride, such as three-zone automatic climate control and a power-adjustable driver's seat. Many models come with additional comfort features, such as heated front seats, leather-trimmed upholstery, and power lumbar support.

The base trim comes with a manual driver's seat, but all other models have power-adjustable seats. Heated seats and leather upholstery are available on some trims. Cargo Space and Practicality Designed for on-the-go families, the Toyota Highlander offers a spacious cargo area. With up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo volume, you'll have more than enough room for luggage, gear, and larger items such as boxes or furniture. When you need all the seats for passengers, you'll have 16 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row for groceries or backpacks. Both rear rows have fold-flat seats, so you can easily configure the arrangement to accommodate the passengers or cargo you're carrying. Like the Highlander, the Pilot also offers generous cargo space with the second and third rows folded flat. The SUV provides a maximum of 87 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the front row. With all seats upright, the Pilot has 21.8 cubic feet of cargo space. Safety and Driver-Assistance Features Whether you choose a Highlander or a Pilot, you can feel confident that you're keeping your family safe on the Duval County highways. Both SUVs come with state-of-the-art safety and driver-assistance features, which work together to keep drivers vigilant and proactively prevent accidents before they occur. Every 2024 Highlander comes with the Toyota Safety Sense system, which includes advanced technologies such as lane departure alert, automatic high-beam headlights, and road sign assist. Similarly, the 2024 Pilot comes standard with Honda Sensing technologies. This suite includes forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and driver attention monitoring. Technology and Infotainment In the Highlander, you can stay connected and entertained, whether you're commuting in Jacksonville or taking an extended road trip with the whole family. An 8-inch infotainment touch screen comes standard, while upper trims get a larger 12.3-inch screen. Wireless smartphone integration, Bluetooth wireless technology, and multiple USB charging ports come standard across the Highlander lineup. The Pilot has plenty of infotainment features as well, but they fall short compared to the Highlander. A smaller 7-inch touch screen comes standard in the Pilot, and upper models get a 9-inch infotainment screen that's several inches smaller than the Highlander display. The two lower trims don't offer wireless smartphone connectivity, so you'll need to use a cord to connect your phone. Price and Value The Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot both have well-deserved reputations for providing great value for families who need an affordable, spacious three-row SUV. The 2024 Highlander has a starting MSRP of $39,120, compared to a starting MSRP of $37,090 for the 2024 Pilot. While the Pilot's starting price is lower, the Highlander offers more standard features. As you advance in trim levels, the Highlander becomes an even better value. For example, the top-level gas Highlander trim has an MSRP of $49,575, while the highest Pilot trim starts at $52,480.

Old school or new? Body-on-frame or unibody platform? Modern tech features or more conventional ones? Off-road performance, smooth on-road handling, or both? These are some of the many questions that spring up in the minds of prospective buyers in pursuit of the perfect midsize SUV. Among the plethora of options, two models have carved out a niche for themselves — the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2024 Toyota 4Runner. Both are a cut above the typical crossover, offering an irresistible fusion of on-road comfort and off-road prowess. more But which of these two stalwarts is better suited to your needs? Let's delve deeper to find out. Introduction to the 2024 Toyota 4Runner and Jeep Grand Cherokee The 2024 Toyota 4Runner, a midsize SUV icon, is renowned for its body-on-frame design and off-road mastery. Its reliability is a testament to Toyota's superior engineering. On the flip side, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has always been a symbol of rugged elegance — equally at home on a muddy trail as it is on the boulevards. It's the perfect blend of luxury and utility, with a unibody design that provides a smooth ride and robust off-road abilities. Read on as we delve into the nitty-gritty, examining what makes these two eagerly awaited contenders stand out. Performance and Engine Options Under the hood of the 2024 Toyota 4Runner resides a trusty 4.0-liter V-6 engine that churns out a respectable 270 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque. It's mated to a five-speed automatic transmission, which sends power to either just the rear wheels or to all wheels. Additionally, the 4Runner can tow up to 5,000 pounds, an impressive feat for a midsize SUV. The Jeep Grand Cherokee doesn't disappoint in this department, either. It offers three engine options for the 2024 model: a standard 3.6-liter V-6, an optional 5.7-liter HEMI V-8, and a new-for-2024 hybrid powertrain that pairs a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with an electric motor. The entry-level V-6 engine produces 293 horsepower and 257 lb-ft of torque. It's paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, which is known for its smooth shifts and efficient power delivery. With proper equipment, the Grand Cherokee can tow up to a whopping 7,200 pounds. Off-Roading Capabilities The 4Runner boasts a generous ground clearance of up to 9.6 inches, and its suspension articulation is nothing short of impressive. Off-road tires come standard, and it flaunts robust 33-degree approach and 26-degree departure angles — vital for mastering those treacherous terrains. Adding to the allure are the TRD-badged variants that pack an arsenal of off-road goodies. From low-speed crawl control to selectable terrain modes, they're designed to tackle the toughest of trails. Meanwhile, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is no slouch when it comes to taming the wilderness. It may be more attuned to the finer things, but it's an off-road warrior at heart. While its suspension articulation isn't as impressive, it can achieve a remarkable ground clearance of up to 10.9 inches. It also offers an impressive array of off-road enhancements, such as an off-road camera and limited-slip differential. Interior and Comfort The 2024 Toyota 4Runner boasts a spacious cabin with ample legroom in the first row, making it comfortable for long drives. Despite being a slightly older model, it impresses with its sturdy build quality and practical design. Its interior features lean more toward the traditional, prioritizing practicality and ease of use. On the other hand, the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee offers a more luxurious interior with high-quality materials and advanced technology features. Its larger touch screen and digital instrument cluster give it a modern edge over the 4Runner. It also has a slightly longer wheelbase, providing more room in the second and optional third rows. Cargo Space and Practicality The 4Runner boasts an impressive cargo volume of approximately 47 cubic feet behind the second row, expanding to nearly 90 cubic feet when the second row is folded down. Conversely, the two-row Grand Cherokee provides around 38 cubic feet of space behind the second row. When expanded, the total cargo space amounts to about 70 cubic feet. While still ample, this falls short in comparison to the 4Runner's offerings. Safety and Driver Assistance Features Despite its age, the 4Runner impresses with a comprehensive suite of advanced driver-assistance systems. Standard features include: Forward collision warning. Automatic emergency braking. Pedestrian detection. Lane departure warning. Automatic high beams. Adaptive cruise control. Blind-spot monitoring. Rear cross-traffic alert. A rearview camera. The Grand Cherokee, being a considerably younger model, is available with a few extra advanced systems, such as night-vision assist and traffic sign recognition. However, the list of standard safety features largely mirrors that of the 4Runner. Technology and Infotainment The 2024 Toyota 4Runner keeps things relatively simple in the technology department. Standard tech goodies, such as an 8-inch touch-screen infotainment system, are available, offering Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. In contrast, the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee takes a more modern approach to technology. The Uconnect 5 infotainment system is standard, which boasts an 8.4-inch screen, with the option to upgrade to a larger 10.1-inch display. Its wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, along with Alexa functionality, provide a seamless connectivity experience. The Grand Cherokee further sets itself apart with a standard digital instrument cluster and six USB ports, catering to the needs of tech-savvy drivers. Price and Value Finally, let's talk about the price and value of these two SUVs. The 2024 Toyota 4Runner starts at an MSRP of around $40,455. This price tag brings with it a well-rounded package that balances performance, practicality, and ruggedness. Comparatively, the Jeep Grand Cherokee comes with a slightly lower starting MSRP of around $39,535. However, it's worth noting the price only gets you the base model, and prices can quickly increase if you choose a higher trim level or add optional features. Customer and Expert Reviews The Toyota 4Runner has always been highly acclaimed by savvy consumers, earning an impressive overall rating of 4.6 out of 5 on Kelly Blue Book's KBB.com. Similarly, the Jeep brand has received recognition as the winner of two 2023 MotorWeek Drivers' Choice Awards.

If you're in the market for a midsize sedan, the 2024 Toyota Camry is definitely worth your consideration. Besides being a pleasure to drive, highly fuel-efficient, and extremely comfortable and well-equipped, the iconic sedan also looks amazing with its sleek, sophisticated styling and eye-catching paint colors. It comes with a wide variety of color options to suit different tastes. Let's take a look at the color options and other features of the 2024 Toyota Camry. more View Camry Inventory Paint Color Options of the 2024 Toyota Camry The paint color of your vehicle says a great deal about you and helps you make a personal statement on the road. One of the great things about purchasing the 2024 Toyota Camry is that you'll have plenty of color options to choose from. Whether you prefer an understated or attention-grabbing color, you'll surely find something on the car's paint palette that fits your personality. The following is a list of exterior color options available on the upcoming Camry: Ice Edge. Blueprint. Wind Chill Pearl. Super White. Galactic Aqua Mica. Celestial Silver Metallic. Predawn Gray Mica. Ruby Flare Pearl. Supersonic Red. Brownstone. Midnight Black Metallic. Exterior Styling Although the 2024 Toyota Camry hasn't been officially unveiled, many spy shots have emerged showing the highly anticipated car in heavy camouflage. However, it's possible to examine and deduce certain styling elements that are visible through the camouflage and compare the new sedan with the current version. The 2024 Camry will probably adopt Toyota's latest design language, which can be seen on the new Prius and Crown. In fact, it appears to have borrowed some styling cues from these two models, including C-shaped headlight surrounds and lower bumper intakes. It won't have the Crown's raked profile but will instead retain its conventional four-door box design. Additionally, it's likely that the sedan will feature a mesh-pattern grille to accommodate the sensor for its radar-based cruise control system. In the back, a somewhat pronounced spoiler adds a touch of sportiness. Interior The 2023 Toyota Camry already has a nice cabin, but it lags behind some competitors in terms of interior quality and refinement. That's going to change with the next-generation Camry, which may draw inspiration from the Crown's cabin. This means that the sedan's interior will get higher-quality materials, more soft-touch surfaces, and more aesthetically pleasing switchgear. Other than that, you can expect the 2024 Camry to continue offering comfortable and spacious seats in both rows. Infotainment Features Since launching the current-generation Camry for 2018, Toyota has taken big steps forward in terms of in-vehicle technology. The 2024 version should feature the brand's latest Audio Multimedia interface, which can be found in the Prius and Tundra. This system features an 8-inch or 12.3-inch touch-screen display and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. In addition, the new Camry will most likely carry over most of the tech features of its predecessor. The 2023 model comes standard with Amazon Alexa, Bluetooth, satellite radio, USB ports, a Wi-Fi hot spot, and a six-speaker sound system. Optional features include a wireless device charger, HD radio, navigation, and a nine-speaker premium audio system. Safety Features Most new Toyota vehicles come with a generous list of driver-assistance features to offer enhanced protection behind the wheel, and the 2024 Toyota Camry is no exception. The sedan is expected to be equipped with the latest Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 suite of driver-assistance features, which will replace the current model's Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+. This new system includes all the features that the outgoing version offers, such as forward automated emergency braking, pedestrian monitoring, forward collision alert, lane-keeping assistance, lane departure alert, adaptive cruise control, automated high-beam headlights, traffic-sign recognition, and rear-seat alert. It also adds Proactive Driving Assist, a driver aid that automatically performs gentle braking or steering to support a variety of driving tasks, such as controlling the distance between your car and a vehicle, cyclist, or pedestrian in front of you. Performance Toyota hasn't released any information on the powertrain lineup for the 2024 Camry. Nonetheless, the sedan is expected to expand its hybrid offerings, which now account for only 16% of its total sales. Still, gas-powered engines should continue to make up a significant chunk of the lineup. The hybrid engine of the current Camry will probably carry over as the 2024 model's entry-level powertrain. This setup consists of a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor that combine for a total output of 208 horsepower. Mated to a continuously variable transmission, it provides more than enough power for daily driving. The Camry may also receive a more powerful optional hybrid system to back up its wilder appearance, such as the turbocharged unit recently introduced on the Toyota Crown. Pairing a 2.4-liter turbo-four with one or two electric motors, this powertrain should be able to generate 340 to 366 horsepower. That's considerably more than the 301 horsepower from the current model's most potent engine, which is a 3.5-liter V-6. Following the release of the performance-oriented GR (Gazoo Racing) Corolla, Toyota has been hinting that a GR Camry may be in the pipeline. If that's true, the automaker will probably introduce the sporty variant on a new-generation Camry, such as the 2024 model. The turbo-three engine of the compact GR Corolla may seem like a stretch on the larger sedan, so perhaps an upgraded version of the 2.4-liter turbo-four from the aforementioned optional hybrid may be a better fit.
