Post a Comment

2026 Toyota 4Runner - After years of riding on the same platform, the 4Runner has finally entered a new generation. It’s got a new look, new powertrain, new tech, and yes — it’s still built for serious off-road adventure.

EXTERIOR DESIGN

The 2026 4Runner is rugged, boxy, and bold, just like a real SUV should be:

  • Built on Toyota’s new TNGA-F body-on-frame platform (shared with the Tacoma and Land Cruiser)
  • Angular styling, squared-off fenders, and a more aggressive stance
  • Massive grille with integrated LED lighting, plus triple-beam LED headlights
  • Upgraded trims get 17–20 inch wheels, functional roof rails, and off-road bumpers
  • TRD Pro and Trailhunter trims bring unique colors, steel skid plates, and a factory lift

It’s everything people love about the 4Runner, now with a modern edge.

INTERIOR & TECH

The interior finally matches the rugged reputation with comfort and cutting-edge tech:

  • All-new dashboard design with a 14-inch touchscreen on upper trims
  • 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster standard on most models
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • More upscale materials, real knobs for climate controls, and more cabin storage
  • Available features: heated and ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera
  • 2-row and 3-row seating options depending on trim

It’s durable enough for dirt trails but modern enough for your daily commute.

ENGINE & PERFORMANCE

Out with the old V6, in with the modern turbo:

  • Standard engine: 2.4L i-FORCE turbocharged 4-cylinder, 278 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque
  • Optional: i-FORCE MAX hybrid system with up to 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque
  • 8-speed automatic transmission replaces the old 5-speed
  • Standard rear-wheel drive with available part-time or full-time 4WD
  • TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Trailhunter trims come with:
    • Multi-Terrain Select
    • Crawl Control
    • Electronic locking rear differential
    • Bilstein or FOX shocks, depending on trim

It’s not just a new engine—it’s a whole new level of performance and capability.

 SAFETY & DRIVER ASSISTANCE

Toyota doesn’t forget safety, even in a rock crawler:

  • Standard Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 includes:
    • Adaptive Cruise Control
    • Pre-Collision System
    • Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
    • Road Sign Assist
  • Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert on most trims
  • Optional 360-degree camera system with underbody terrain view
  • Stronger frame and updated crash protection to meet 2026 safety standards

Whether you're on the highway or crawling rocks, you’re in safe hands.
