Toyota 4Runner

Model years 2018–2027

The Toyota 4Runner is an SUV or crossover nameplate from Toyota, designed for everyday driving, utility and off-road travel. Some versions emphasize four-wheel-drive capability and trail use. Across its model years, powertrain, drivetrain, passenger space, cargo capacity, towing capability and equipment can vary substantially. Shoppers should compare the exact year and trim because specifications, features, recalls, known problems and ownership costs can change over time.
