For whatever reason, I have been really loving Toyota products (not sure what to think about the new Highlander, but the previous models were great).
The Japanese in general have fallen behind in tech. I was going to buy a Civic Type R but the infotainment system was so painfully slow and outdated I couldn't accept that in a $40k+ vehicle. My wife's Outback system is also slow and very basic. Drove a new RAV4 for a day and the infotainment system looked like it was designed a decade ago. Maybe I've been spoiled with iDrive but I know the Chrysler Uconnect system blows away anything from the Japanese so good tech isn't limited to the Germans.
