The 2018 Toyota Highlander 2.0T AWD Knight Edition 7-Seater (China VI) in black stands out with its aggressive, dark-themed design. Its deep matte-black body is paired with exclusive sporty accents: a blacked-out front grille (replacing chrome trim), smoked LED headlamp/taillamp housings, black wheel arches, and 19-inch black alloy wheels. These details amplify its rugged, family-friendly SUV silhouette while distinguishing it from standard variants. Raised ground clearance and muscular body lines further enhance its off-road-ready aesthetic, making it suitable for both urban commutes and weekend getaways.

Powered by a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine (162kW/350N·m), this model pairs with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission and full-time all-wheel drive (AWD) for reliable traction in wet or light off-road conditions. Meeting China VI emission standards, it balances responsive acceleration (ideal for highway merging) with optimized fuel efficiency for daily use. The AWD system dynamically adjusts torque distribution, boosting stability on uneven terrain without sacrificing on-road comfort.

The cabin features a cohesive black interior with premium touches: black leather-trimmed seats (with subtle contrast stitching), a black piano-finish center console, and aluminum pedal covers. The 7-seat layout offers flexible utility: second-row seats slide/recline for passenger comfort, and the third row folds flat to expand cargo capacity from 201L to 1142L. Key convenience features include dual-zone automatic climate control, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system (with Bluetooth and reverse camera), and heated front seats.

These features ensure reliable protection for all occupants in urban, highway, or light off-road scenarios, aligning with the Highlander’s reputation for family-focused safety.
