- New Leaks! 2024 Toyota 4Runner And What To Expect
The 6th Gen Toyota 4Runner is still on the way, that much has been confirmed. Toyota sells to many to halt this legendary vehicle. But where does it stand with the release of the new 2024 Land Cruiser? Lets go over what we know, what we can speculate on, and what we can hope for.
The 6th generation 4Runner should be unveiled in 2024, and sold for the 2025 model year. Lets dive into the news and leaks, and see what we might expect from these vehicles.

The powered rear window is one of things I love about the 4runner. If they drop that feature it will majorly upset the 4runner faithful out there.
I hope they don't replace that with the new sequoia/lc flip up rear window.
I would be in that crowd of 4runner faithful. "Just say NO" to flip up glass! KEEP THE POWERED WINDOW AND FLAT OPEN CARGO SPACE! Might as well add that smaller engines + turbos means more/quicker wear and tear and heat (guess only time will tell?)
Just like Toyota did with the new Land Cruiser - they eliminated the clamshell / tail gate rear hatch. That was one of my favorite features on my 99 Land Cruiser.
I doubt they’d remove it bc the tundra still has it
watch them make flip up tundra rear windows on the 4th gens in 2037
I plan on picking up a 2021 4Runner, I’d rather have a known reliable engine than anything else.
Yeahhhhh, I'm going to pass on the 4-banger. I'll keep my V6, thank you.
I will be keeping mine as well
Wise decision.
Reason why I scooped up a ‘22 4Runner TRD ORP last week, low mileage and mint. Driving this one into the ground.
A neighbor just traded his very clean 12 year old Taco for... a new Nissan Frontier "V6" (they are all V6). Certain that Toyota saw this as a calculated risk... time will tell. (I drive a 2013 Accord V6.)
Yea. Going to just drive my lunar pro forever.
Glad I got a 5th gen before these changes. I'm going to sit back and see how the new changes pan out.
I love my 2022 Tacoma, but I want a manual so much! I tried for months to find one and gave up. The idea of a manual 4Runner is magical to me.
I agree 💯 %
I will be so blown away if this is a manual shifting removable top beach cruiser. It’s hard to imagine how else they will separate it from the Land Cruiser
My interpretation of this is the LC is now what 4R used to be and the new 4R will be more FJcruiser and going to compete directly with the Wrangler and Bronco. Hopefully we even see a coupe version of the 4 runner!
I'm so glad I got a 2023 TRD Offroad
I spoke to a guy that works at TRD about the roll down rear window, he said it would continue. But hey I’m just a stranger on the internet lol
Can’t wait to see it!!! I love the looks of the Tacoma and hope it’s pretty close to that.
One of the main reason I bought my 4Runner was to have that famous Toyota V6 engine. Its supposedly bullet proof. I know the EPA is forcing these smaller engines on us, but F them...I want my V6. I don't trust all this turbo-ing of small engines to power these big vehicles.
Agree, we had a 1998 4Runner, for 17 years and 217k miles, and 6 years after we sold it to a neighbor, it's still on the road...!
A 4 banger in a mid-sized suv is ridiculous. The epa is on some bullshit. What makes this hurt so much is i actually work for Toyota, i build the Corolla here in Mississippi. I want a Taco/4Runner but without the V6 its just insulting.
Very informative, thanks
This would be an ideal time for Toyota to revive the FJ as a 2-door "2+2" short wheelbase version of the new 4Runner / Tacoma platform to compete with 2-door Wrangler and Bronco. All the hardware needed has been developed and there is a loyal fanbase waiting!
Enjoyed this video. Great job .
Nevermind the new 4Runner (I have an FJ), let’s talk about that light up coaster thingy! If I’m gonna buy a pint glass, I’m going to first need to know when you got that! 😂 Seriously tho, great video. The hubs and I really love your channel!
Haha thanks for your comment! I actually just had a really bright video light behind it, but since you mentioned it I found some with good reviews for you! I should probably use some of these videos, now that you mention it! Thanks for tuning in! 🙏
amzn.to/470xNPT
@@IndependenceOverland 😂 Awesome! “Add to cart” ✅ and now.. we can order your pint glasses! 😄Thanks!
@@ginnykay your awesome! Thank you Ginny! 🙏
I bet the back window will still roll down.
We will see. Tundra I believe is the only vehicle that still has that.
This odd the greatest asset of my surf
Yeah I’m not buying one if it’s only hybrid or back window doesn’t roll down.
I don't see why they would get rid of it for the 4Runner. Although I'm happy to have a rear slider in my Tacoma as opposed to the roll down window
If the back window doesn't roll down that's a deal breaker.
Might have to swing the finances and get a 2024. The old 4.0 V6 is tried and true, very low maintenance and good for 500K of hard use. Then in another 15-20 years allow myself to be forced into the fancy turbos/hybrids, but for now I want simple and less things to go wrong when I am off the paved roads.
the more I read and watch about the gen 6 4runner, the more I think about keeping my 2018 limited. Made the front looking like trd pro with the raptor lights, trd pro wheels and ko2s.
I would guess there will still be a full time 4xd version (limited) like there is in the new Tacoma.
The writing on the wall was obvious that the naturally aspirated V6 and V8 options would be gone. Personally I'm happy about a 4-banger turbo hybrid. The turbo and EV power combine to produce LOTS of low-end torque, which for off-road and launching is great! Wonder if a Limited edition will have full time FWD? Electric sliding rear window is truly one of the best things I love about my Gen 3! Hope it doesn't go away.
Loved your video. Can you recommend a few companies that sell aftermarket kits and accessories for the 4Runner? Maybe you've done some videos on 4Runner accessories? Thanks!
Running4Tacos is a well known spot in Colorado. For full installations, Juniper Overland is another one. I have installed everything myself on my Fj.
Who did you purchase the parts from? Are there some websites that sell aftermarket products?@@IndependenceOverland
I've only driven a 4Runner since '03, three total over 20 years. Current is a '15 TRD Pro I bought new. I will obviously be interested when these finally come out, but I am very content and happy with my current ride. It being paid off is a big factor. Other than the hybrid turbo-4 setup the other turbo-4 banger options on paper look disappointing.
Wait until year three of the new design. Hopefully by that time the bugs will be worked and there will be some more data on the engine/turbo reliability.
I miss my 2011 4Runner. When I sold it (for a '22 Pro 4X), I thought I'd get a new 4Runner only if it checked a few boxes. A manual tranny is definitely up there for me. I miss th roll down back glass. I don't care what people say, I want a small block with a great fuel economy. I mean, this is the mid 20s, ffs! Give me reliabililty (we'll only know in 2035...) and looks and I'm sold!
So excited to see the 2030 4Runner coming out soon!
Buy the 5th gen while available. It’ll last twice as long as the incoming redesign.
the 1gr-fe is a legendary engine, you might be right.
16 miles a gallon in 2024 no thanks you can spend the extra $1000.00 a year in gas compared to other vehicles
The vehicle I'm really waiting for is the new FJ Cruiser. I feel like that is going to be something incredible.
I bought a 2023 4Runner trd orp last week. I did this specifically to get the 4.0 V6 before it was retired. Probably my biggest purchase driver.
That said, if the new one has a removable top I would immediately trade this one in and take the financial hit. That would suck though lol
I know the Land Cruiser was leading in your pole, but a 6 speed manual has got to capture some attention. I was considering trading my 2012 Tundra for a Tacoma... but I'm serious rethinking this now. Need to see more to know for sure.
I’ll share more as soon as I have the info!
Got a manual. Still have a manual TRDSE FJ
Sorry to go off topic but where did you get the topo map in the video?
I had an 07 FJ cruiser, 15 4 Runner and a 22TRD sport 4 runner which I traded in on my 22 ford bronco. My biggest complaint on the Toyotas was the rust on the under carriage! I actually had to replace the calipers on my 07 FJ because of the rust, first time ever on any vehicle I’ve owned! I had my 15 4 runner undercoated, but still didn’t help. Very questionable where they buy their steel from. We also had a 2014 Tacoma in the family that needed the frame replaced with only 50k on it.
I’ve never had rust issues myself 🤷🏼♂️
Well it might have to do with the salt here in Pittsburgh and our location here
The renderings of the new 4runner look great. As a 4wd Trail edition owner, I’m disappointed that the V6 will be gone. I’ll probably just keep what I got. I’m thinking a used low mileage’23 or older would be the way to go when my 4runner wears out.
manual trans, increased MPG, hoping for the rear roll down window for my shepherd.....take my money!
As a guy who came of age in the 80s, I'd be tickled to see a throwback to the original with the removeable top. The new landcruiser is well positioned to be the new overlanding platform of choice for Toyota fans.
I think the new Land Cruiser is an extremely cool platform. Those things are going to look KILLER when built!
We could only wish… That would be incredible if they brought that back!!
Land Cruiser will be limited supply and sell for well above MSRP. That is what my local Toyota Dealer told me.
I want a manual transmission with the I force max. I hate having to decide if the manual is worth having less power.
Funny how in 1986 they released the 22RTE turbo 4cyl because they weren't quite ready to release their 3.0 v6, and now it's the opposite.
yeah, the 6 cylinders in these sized vehicles are gone forever.
I need help on my 2007 Voodoo Blue FJ Cruiser. My Frame is shot to hell. Bought with the frame full of rust not even worrying about it because I lived in Florida all my life. Any recommendations on frame swapping and who to go to?
I think Land Cruiser Heaven has a place on the East Coast. See if they will.
Is "18-inch wheels only" for Tacoma confirmed? I really hope not because even the Tundra iForce Max can take most 17" wheels. I did it on the TRD Pro and the caliper cleared 17" wheel with balancing weights.
I’m just basing it off OEM wheels but from what I’ve seen, they aren’t shipping with 17s. I believe there are 3 brake package levels, with the TRD trims having the largest. Toyota reaaaaally needs to release some concrete details on these trucks. Launch of the 24s sure is close!
@@IndependenceOverland I know...let's hope 17s will fit. same as the tundras the smallest wheels are also 18s. maybe they have some road handling requirements they want to meet. Tires with 18" wheels will have higher roll stiffness. Probably hard to tell the difference by humans, but measurable by sensors and computers.
A great benefit of the hybrid is that you get a 2400W power inverter standard.
I think the hybrids are gonna be sweet
if the 4runner comes with a manual. I'll be buying one.
I’ll keep my 2016 trail edition with the 2nd shifter for the 4x4 function with locking rear diff and crawl mode. The 4 liter V6 is bullet proof engine because of its simplicity. A Lexus/toyota mechanic said that he worked worked at the dealership for 25 years and he had never had to open this engine because nothing ever goes wrong because it’s so simple. Just like the old V8 Land Cruisers they are built to last. I heard that the current 4Runners are made at a Lexus plant alongside the GX. I also trust NA vehicles more the boosted ones especially with suv/off road vehicles. Recently met a guy that traded his older Tundra for a new one and he said that it was a big mistake.
Timing chains are very common repairs on the 1gr-fe in the 4Runners. The Fj has the same engine. They are also known to develop oil leaks. They are reliable though. The 4Runner is in fact built in the Tahara factory next to the GX and Land Cruiser 200. It’s regarded as Toyotas best facility.
That being said, the new 4Runner will be built there as well most likely. So it will still be a quality vehicle, and people seem to forget that even though the US/Mexico trucks aren’t built in Japan, the engines are. I think these new ones will be just fine myself.
4runner for life. Thats me.
Still have CV joints at the front? Any chance you could lift the front end without chewing up CV joints?
Yes, they have redesigned the CV axles to put up with high angle torque. This is with the Pro and Trailhunter variants, but the chief engineer said they cross right over.
I still have my 1997 Toyota 4Runner Limited I bought new. I might be time to get a new one. I have loved my car for many years and it was super reliable. If you are going to buy a 4Runner I would think you would want a 4 wheel drive. If you want an SUV then others can get one with a smoother ride. The 4Runner will always have that truck kind of feel. That is why it is good going off road. I would love to see a hybrid 4Runner.
I think the removable top is such a bad idea. Probably wouldn’t look great and it’s just copying. I really wish they would offer a full time system on all 4x4 trims though. As it is you have to go limited trim and that is a pretty compromised trim
Exactly why I got a 3rd gen Tacoma
Losing an already underpowered V6 for an underpowered turbo 4 seems like a huge downgrade
Thanks for taking the time to check it out man!
@@IndependenceOverland
Love the videos, just frustrated by Toyota these days 😥
I'm a former 4Runner owner. I could use one again, but I won't consider it if there isn't a naturally aspirated version.
Yea sounds like a skip… no V6 means I’m sticking to my ole reliable 2020 model
It's a funny line to draw, but I've been holding off for years for a next-gen 4runner but if they ditch the rear window, I'm done lol. I'll buy the nicest used 5th gen TRD Pro I can find and call it a life lol.
Turbo engines. 4 bangers. Great anywhere but off road. Not to mention it must be nice to make such a high income that you could afford one.
Yeah, I basically have 2 jobs so I can start a new build. I paid 19800 for my Fj back in 2009 when it was a year old. Crazy.
@IndependenceOverland Yeah, but you still have it! New trucks are not as long lasting. At least in my eyes. Computerized planned obsolescence.
I’ll be keeping the Fj too!
So old toyota pickups and 4cyl jeeps suck off road huh 🤣🤣🤣
@@christrarback9748I think he was referring to turbo models, a turbo is a waste
I hope there's a 6 speed option on the new 4Runner, I'd trade my '17 Taco 6 speed for a 4Runner. I've already got a Tundra so I don't need two trucks, this would be a nice daily driver/ off road beast.
That render at 9:59 is so gosh darn pretty. Oh my.
Dude you’re telling me! These guys were pretty accurate with their Tacoma predictions, hopefully they nailed this too!
So just how will this turbo engine last after 200,000 , or 300,000 Km’s?
That’s a lot of extra parts under the hood for very little gain, and bigger
repair bills down the road!
If you don’t believe that, you’re ignoring reality.
Makes me happy I just bought a 21 😊 viva la 6
I think Toyota may consider replacing both the Tacoma-based 4Runner and the Hilux-based Fortuner that's sold mostly overseas with one singular model that will be sold globally including the US since both the new Tacoma and next-gen Hilux pickups will be on the TNGA-F platform instead of separate platforms like their respective predecessors. However, this singular replacement for both the 4Runner and Fortuner could become a new Land Cruiser model that would sit below the Cruiser 250/Lexus GX550. A Lexus version of that may be possible, but we don't know for sure as of now.
4R will be based on Tacoma, LC and new Lexus platforms.
@@paulsnyder681 The outgoing 4Runner's successor may not be called 4Runner for long. The Hilux-based Fortuner/SW4 sold overseas might also be killed off for good. Toyota could replace the two truck-based SUVs with one should it go ahead.
I hope they keep the back rear side slanted window, it just makes it a 4runner. (Sets it apart from the other SUV's)
Looks like a winner , hopefully we’ll be seeing a 6 speed.
Around early 2025 I am likely to buy a Tacoma or Ranger. Leaning towards the Tacoma with manual trans -- obviously have not yet driven a new Tacoma. If the 4Runner offers the manual I could go that way -- not 100% sure about SUV or pickup, but I want a body-on-frame mid sized off-road capable vehicle. I would prefer non-turbo but that's how it goes now. I would not buy a hybrid because whatever I buy I plan to keep for many years.
I would buy a 4Runner w/ manual because its built in Tahara, Japan.
Time will tell on hybrid reliability, but based off the 1997 Prius models that are still kicking, we dont have much to worry about. And the batteries are built so parts of the battery can fail, and parts can be replaced. At least thats what a Toyota rep told me.
@@IndependenceOverland Good points. I know a few buddies who have high mileage Priuses. They have some quality issues (body, catalytic converters going bad) but they're all fixable. I'll hope Toyota follows the Prius in making the batteries easily replaceable. Again, that's what a friend of mine did with his Prius.
Toyota does not use lithium in their batteries which I think keeps their cost down but also increases dependability. I don’t like the 3” of lost vertical space in the LC load area due to the hybrid battery and guessing the same will be the case with the 6gen 4R.
@@van_mod1 When I watched the interview w/ Chief Engineer, Mike Sweers, he said the deciding factor between nickel metal hydride vs lithium is usually packaging (Thus why the new Prius has a lithium ion battery- it’s a small car ). There are other benefits/ cons for each, but I believe that is the main deciding factor (based on that I think they should reconsider a lithium battery for Sequoia, or move the battery underneath, it’s too obtrusive). I think the elephant in the room is these lithium ion batteries are having problems catching fire. A parking garage in UK (Luton) partially collapsed because of a fire started by hybrid Land Rover w/ a lithium Ion Battery (it burnt through the floor). I haven’t heard of Toyota having a problem, but they’ve been using nickel metal hydride much longer. Not sure what the fix is for lithium ion, but it is a problem (vehicles that spontaneously combust tends to be a bad thing lol).
Before the 2023 SEMA Auto Show in Vegas, everyone and their mothers agreed w \ Toyota's engineer about no more V6 in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Everyone and their mothers still believed him about no more V6 in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Everyone and their mothers parrot the words of Toyota's engineer about no more V6 in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Now, Toyota brought out the 2024 Toyota Tacoma X Runner Concept at the 2023 SEMA Auto Show in Vegas but, the same engineer said, " We putted a V6 Toyota Tundra's engine in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Toyota brought out the 2024 Toyota Tacoma X Runner Concept at the 2023 LA Auto Show.
I like the fact the turbo/hybrid system will increase MPG, I am also jazzed at the possibility of a Manual 4Runner again. I really hope it keeps the roll down rear window and production in Japan.
I’m still on my local dealership’s Pro lottery for the Terra ‘24
Unfortunately, they said the same with the Tundra going from V8 to turbo V6. Same gas mileage, worse low end power.
@@phroskies Yep would love to see the MPG increase, but I don't think it will. Looking at all of the 2024 Tacoma videos the MPG is displayed as is the tank miles and it barely looks like 300-325 mile tanks. However, those are pre-production, but I doubt they are doing extra work to configure that. The Tundra is such a good example of how it didn't deliver on expectations.
@@Aurelian57That'd be worse then. My '23 TRD OR gets 375 miles per tank.
@@dirtdiver9668 Oh yea it would, but I am hoping it will get better. My Colorado ZR2 diesel gets 590-650 miles on a tank (21 gallons) which means I need the 2024 Tacoma to get close to that as much as possible. I just don't think it will, judging by some of the early numbers. Remaining possible though because the TRD Pro looks great!
I'm not a fan of terra, go solar octane.
I am very happy with my 2021 4Runner and quite content with all the "old school" tech that is has. The way I care for my 4Runner it should last my for 25 years. By then I probably wont be doing much driving.
Do u think 2nd row captain's chairs will be available?
No idea on that kind of thing man. I doubt it, since that’s what the GX kid of has.
Good thing I’m buying a 2024 4Runner.
Since the Tacoma and 4Runner will be mostly the same you think they still would make it in Japan and not all in Mexico? Thank you!
From what I understand, the Baja plants are at their maximum capacity already.
Sounds promising. The kids are growing up, the 2005 Odessey has 225,000 miles on it and my wife is itching to get a 4-Runner again. If Toyota is listening; No hybrid, a manual transmission and lo-tech.
If the 4Runner is virtually the same, the Land Cruiser just seems so similar. Why would anyone buy one over the other? Just the center locker can't be it. Especially with Bronco, the removable doors and top (but reliabile would be a winner). Looking forward to whatever happens.
I figured when they came out with the land cruiser that they would keep the v6 in fourrunner. I mean why would they have 2 of the same thing?
Seems like with the Land Cruiser 250 and the GX550 sharing the same platform, there isn't really room in the market for a 4Runner. What would the 4Runner offer that the Land Cruiser 250 doesn't? A slightly lower price point?
Not sure, but Toyota has said that its still on the way. Thats what makes it so interesting. What would set this thing aside from the Sequoia and Land Cruiser?
@IndependenceOverland I'm a dyed in the wool FJ40 guy, so for me, the new Land Cruiser should have been the 4Runner and a Land Cruiser should have gone back to its roots with a solid front axle.and a removable top. Maybe they'll do that with the next generation 4Runner?
If they make a manual trans I better win the lottery soon
The land cruiser still has the pop-open rear glass like on the GX.
yeah but doesn't have the tailgate, which is technically a true Land Cruiser thing, but people were still bummed the US 2024 model doesn't get the split tailgate.
Toyota better not drop the roll down back window. If so, we'll need some sort of conversion kit or other oem solution.
Triple locks would be nice and up the towing and give it 355HP
326hp isnt bad though
The funniest part of the video that made me bust out, laughing was when he said Toyota makes reliable, hybrids boy. I work on a lot Toyota hybrids all the time I don’t find them that reliable and it’s expensive to repair.
Probably because people don’t clean the hybrid battery cooling fan/filter as required
I definitely believe the 228hp base engine from the Tacoma won’t be on the 6th gen 4R
Funny 2024 Toyota Tacoma Limited Trim and Features
Toyota drivers near Springfield, IL, will find the Limited grade now features a full-time four-wheel-drive system with a center locking differential when equipped with the available i-FORCE MAX 2.0L turbocharged hybrid powertrain., why take it away when the 4 -runner comes with the center lock, I have one,
We need a 4runner with Iforce 5.7 V8 like the tundra
We all wish, but the EPA has basically neutralized that.
Doesn't matter what it is just make sure it's 3 rows with the back window able to roll down lol
I doubt it’ll be a 3 row.
@@IndependenceOverland I know man 😢
Removable top with tundra turbo like they just did at sema with Tacoma would crush everyone
The 4 runner should be built as the only Toyota true to the core, Mall Mobile.
Certainly hope is has more rear legroom than the Taco
The 4Runner has always had more rear seat legroom. My ‘22 4Runner had loads more legroom than my Dad’s ‘17 Tacoma Double Cab
We need a ReMovable Top Please...!
Easier to install a 360° mount for a MA Deuce... What A Technical...!
I want to meet the guy who has a hybrid with 200,000 miles and hasn’t replaced the battery pack.
as long as it gets good MPG. that is the biggest hinderance to 4runner and trucks in general.
maybe the landcruiser will be more of a replacement for the 4runner limited, maybe not tho idk.
Yes to the 6 speed
They mentioned that the new 4 Runner will have a removable top like the Bronco and the Wrangler. What have you heard
Who’s they?
The thing I don't understand is even with the new motors I force / I force max, Toyota Tacoma and I guess the 4Runner is still behind the competition in power and torque. Seriously Toyota! Hell, even the 56 year old motor in the Nissan Frontier produces more HP... and apparently the MPG didn't really improve over the outgoing V6. WT actual F?
MANUAL 😮
I like the Toyota four runner but I’m going to get the Lexus GX 460 most likely little bit more luxury but the 4 runner is a s solid,id sized body in frame suv😊
I want to like the hybrid engines just don’t trust them. I think I am going with the new Lexus GX that they kept the 6 cyl Twin Turbo. I with they would give a natural engine option and not only the hybrid.
I really want the new Tacoma but I simply can’t get past the whole turbo 4 cylinder and hybrid. Luckily I bought a 2022 Tacoma V6 so I can wait a few years and see how they do and try and talk myself into accepting it lol
Soon it will be the only option across all manufacturers. We will all learn to get used to it in time.
You don’t think they’ll announce at CAS like the Sequoia?
Maybe 🤷🏼♂️
I disagree with some of this. In order to make a major difference between the LC J250 and the 4Runner, I think the 4Runner is going to have extremely short approach and departure angles and removable doors. They’re going to target Bronco / Wrangler with it, and people who want something similar to their 5th gen 4Runner can have a LC J250. ALSO the new smaller Land Cruiser FJ is going to compete directly with Bronco Sport and Cherokee / Compass / Renegade, as Toyota’s affordable and efficient off roader. That’ll allow RAV4 to compete against CR-V and Mazda CX-5. And other crossovers
My 2019 TRD 4R gets 23.5 mpg @ 60mph and gets 18mpg @ 70mph on 87 octane- tire pressure 38lbs. Speed kills mpg.
The sell a lot of 4runners to soccer moms. Now they will be buying the land cruiser. I would think if toyota was smart they'd go after the bronco and wrangler.
Might want to update the title since the 2024 4Runner is out and the same as the 2023 4Runner except for the colors
Keep thinking your eating milk and cookies. That pint looks like a cookie
Haha! Milk and cookies pint available on the website! 😉
I think most people are interested in lower gas milage. The lower gas milage of the older versions is just a pain to live with.
What you consider a “pain”, I consider a small sacrifice for the proven reliability of the 4.0l/5spd combo.
Toyota should make their Lexus GX, the new style Toyota 4 Runner.
