2015 Toyota Highlander Earns KBB Best Buy Award
Kelley Blue Book recently announced its winners for its first ever Best Buy Awards. These awards were made to recognize the top new vehicles available in the U.S. The winners are determined by an expert vehicle evaluation, analysis of pricing, consumer reviews and vehicle sales, among other data points, over the last year.
In the awards’ first year, the 2015 Toyota Highlander was named the top Mid-Size SUV/Crossover. A panel of KBB.com experts had this to say about the first winner: “In a segment filled with excellent alternatives, Toyota’s well-crafted, well-styled and well-sorted Highlander simply does the best job of seamlessly mixing and matching the things that count most into a single, extremely engaging package we deem the standard bearer for its class.”

Local Nonprofits Supported by Toyota Indiana

This past quarter, one of the projects that Toyota Indiana’s funding helped to support was a rain garden project being developed by Dubois County Soil and Water Conservation as part of their Land Stewardship initiative.
“Rain gardens are attractive, easy to maintain, and go a long way towards improving water quality by holding back the rain water and keeping it from flooding the municipal storm systems,” said Judi Brown, executive director of the Dubois County Soil and water Conservation District. “Having the rain garden on the Vincennes University campus will provide an opportunity for people in the community to learn about rain gardens, and may entice them to construct one on their property.”
