The Bronze Edition trim joins the lineup.
Pros High fuel economy for a three-row SUV Sensibly priced compared to the non-hybrid Highlander Comfortable ride Plenty of standard and available safety features
Cons Third-row seats are cramped Not a whole lot of cargo space behind the third row Engine sounds unrefined at full throttle
A new Hybrid Bronze Edition model joins the lineup and wears Cement or Wind Chill Pearl exterior paint with a set of cool 18-inch bronze-colored wheels. The cabin also receives some unique design elements in the form of geometric-patterned upholstery with bronze-colored detailing and illuminated bronze-colored doorsill protectors. Elsewhere, XLE and higher trims now come with a height-adjustable power-seat feature for the front passenger. The Highlander otherwise carries over to 2022 with no other changes.
Pros Handsome styling, available as a fuel-saving hybrid, driver-assistance features come standard.
Cons Lazy driving characteristics, snug third row, busy dashboard design.

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense is a seriously stylish electric car with comfy suspension and a stunning interior but it’s let down by cramped back seats and limited electric range.
Pros Fabulous interior Very comfortable to drive Plenty of personalisation options
Cons Cramped back seats Alternatives are cheaper… … and have greater ranges
Not the EV we’d recommend, but if you like the way it looks and battery-power suits your lifestyle then by all means.
Pros Bit different to look at and sit in, as practical as ICE car
Cons Ride comfort, inconsistent brake pedal, awkward infotainment
The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense offers enough range for most people, but it's far from the best electric car on sale.
Pros Choice of trim levels Characterful design Fast-charging capability
Cons Shorter range than rivals Not a huge boot Feels heavy
