The all-new 6th Gen Toyota 4Runner is stirring the market with gorgeous design and very capable platform - plus it delivered some delightful news such as made-in-Japan label and retention of the sliding rear window. But there are much more surprises found in the new 4Runner - so Automotive Engineer David Chao decided to outline "30 things you should know" about the 2025 4Runner. There are perhaps much more than 30, so we would love to hear from you what else might have surprised you.

Best part of 5th gen to me was the flat rear cargo. I used to have my sleeping pad and sleeping bags ready when I go camping solo. Too bad that's not the case anymore 😕

it depends on 4Runner Trim. My 2022 5th gen Off-Road is not flat in the cargo area but because I lower the 60 of the 60/40 back seat to sleep when I camp, I use a 1.5" x 24"wide platform that makes it flat for me to sleep with my 6" thick trifold mattress. Easy fold up of the mattress into the back cargo area and the 1.5" platform can remain if I want to put the seat back up into place. Easy mod/works great.

David keep up the great work! Please speak to what you believe the longevity of the propulsion system with and without the hybrid. I daily drive my current (and former) 4Runners and the reliability and cost of maintaining is great. I’d love the extra power provided by the hybrid set up but I’m concerned with the life and cost of replacing the traction battery. Given that I have no option without a turbo I’m not sure I want to add the extra complexity and potentially extra cost of replacing the hybrid battery (or other components) at say 150,000 miles. I’d like to hear your feedback and expectations (specifically regarding reliability and maintenance cost, long term, for the hybrid components). Thanks!

It’s frustrating to know the limitations US regulations have brought to the next generation product lines for Toyota SUVs. The Prado LC and same sized 4R makes no sense while the LC300 is sold across other continents. One can only hope an administration change opens the door for the return of V6 4R’s and wouldn’t a 5.7L LC / Sequoia be a nice upgrade! Until then, I’m keeping the 2021 LC200HE and the 2024 5th gen 4R in the garage and don’t look for these new models to make appearance in my driveway!

Glad you showed the non-hybrid rear floor height. I assumed all would be raised. What I like with my 5th gen with no tray is that I can carry a bike inside on a fork mount upright, Seeing the hybrid's floor height on all the hybrid models was a bit of a letdown in that regard, as well as loading heavy items. I would be interested in exact measurements between, 5th gen with no tray, the non-hybrid new 4Runner and the Trailhunter, which to me with it's non glossy wheel arches and as accessorized is the one I would get. Also wanted to add a comment regarding the Trailhunter's compressor placement. It's aweful. Cannot believe they placed it low and forward, so if you have a loaded rig, you need to move gear out of the way first to use the compressor. They could have located the outlet on the rearward panel. For some, it may be easier to use an accessory compressor than having to move gear just to use the onboard unit as compelling as it is to have it integral.

What is the measurement of back window across? Wondering if you could fit a 4x8 plywood or drywall out the window? Also to take the rear seats out, is it still just a couple bolts? Do you think there is any danger to sleep on top of the battery for road trips and vanlifers? Can you fit a bigger tire on the wheel that it comes with? How much longer in your opinion will the engine outlast the battery? Can those gloss Pro fenders be wrapped? What is the cost of cross over bars and best ones to get for the roof rank? What is the best undercoating to get? Is it recommended full synthetic oil from factory? Do the backseat door windows have the option to go all the way down or is it always on child safe?

Got to see it in person at Toyota Jamboree last weekend. I did not think I would like it, but the pro looked REALLY good. Still not sure on legroom or cargo space with the batteries, etc, but will definitely take a long look when it becomes a bit more available to get in and stuff. Also heard a rumor that it would be about 69k US for pro or trailhunter.

I expect it to be almost the exact same as the Tacoma now. The focus seems to be more power, with the benefit that instead of consuming more fuel, it actually saves a couple mpg. I went with the gas 4th gen Taco and with about 500km on the odo I got a proper 23 mpg or just over 10L/100km on a trip to my parents which was about 80km. It’s a lot better than my wrangler with the 3.6 and 8 speed got, so I’m happy.

There is one vehicle specification that is so useful to those who want to stuff larger bulky items into our SUVs that doesn't even appear in the manufacturer's specifications.

Currently I would really like to know how the 6th gen 4runner is different than the older one in this regard.

I have been asking that question a lot lately. The new Land Cruiser won't have 40/20/40 rear seats either. The new Crown Signia, which seems to be custom built for families who ski, lacks that feature as well. Cost cutting is hitting us everywhere as they keep dropping useful features. The cheapest 3rd generation RAV4 had sliding 40/20/40 rear seats.

Are they comfortable? I usually lease bmw's and merc's. I'm thinking of getting this to save money, but if it's not comfortable, I'll stick with merc.

Gen5 is a better truck. Yes might not have as great power and might have 17 mpg instead of 19. But you’re paying like 20 k more to get the new one. N the 5th gen never breaks it’s a tank.

What about the fact The 4Runner is over 4 inches shorter than the Land Cruiser but it has 1 inch more ground clearance than the Land Cruiser-does this mean the 4Runner feels cramped in the cabin compared to the Land Cruiser since there is a net variance of over 5 inches for the body-higher ground clearance yet 4 inches shorter for the 4Runner. Or does the Land Cruiser feel like the 2023 GX with lots of sitting height in the cabin?

Actually 4Runner is not 4" shorter than Land Cruiser, it's slightly longer in terms of overall length. Actual data: 193.8 inches for Land Cruiser vs. 194.9 inches for 4Runner

The 4Runner feels a bit more cramped in terms of headroom, but since Toyota has not provided actual interior dimensions, we can't verify until the data is available

No doubt, build quality is spot on. But who's in charge of styling? It looks like it was designed by a child who likes transformers or space ships! Nothing round anywhere. Washing this thing will be a chore. The wheel wells are still square for a tire that's round. I sure hope the wheel well does a better job accommodating oversize tires than 5th Gen because it will look downright silly with small tires. Nice interior but exterior is off-putting. Will look to Jeep next time. Much more mature styling.

And on the side of the car plenty of space to put batteries instead putting on the floor and destroying flat space after seats folded. For the for runner after folded seats flat space is must. Otherwise vehicle is not 4runner

i agree that the 4Runner is an amazing value and I'll buy one UNLESS THE DEALERS ASK FOR A MARKET ADJUSTMENT ABOVE MSRP. Ball is in their court.

Haha. No. Ball is in YOUR court. How badly do YOU want it? Do you really think they’re going to incentivize/beg you to buy one? Come on now… These will sell like coke-powered, bacon filled hot cakes!
