2017 Toyota Highlander

As you can see, the Highlander is not all new for 2017.
It's just a new face. (And new tail lights and small interior trim changes)

I'm not sure this is an improvement. At all.
That giant mouth... Really?

And, on top of that, it looks like a cheaper version of Lexus's own big mouth.
Why?
Aren't they supposed to make sure these two brands look as different as possible???

Why???
