The 2025 Toyota 4Runner is HERE! First look

The 2025 Toyota 4Runner (Pricing yet to be announced) is all-new and is now on Toyota’s newest global truck platform. It comes standard with a 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder engine making 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque, but the i-FORCE MAX option adds a hybrid powertrain which is good for 326 horsepower and a strong 465 lb-ft of torque. Thomas and James are excited to have a first look inside and out of the new Toyota 4Runner, and see what the new generation has to offer. We hope you enjoy the episode. SUBSCRIBE!

​​@@Rfk1966I just don't see high boost 4 cylinders under high load on a truck chassis being reliable enough for the Toyota badge. They do good engineering but they can't engineer their way out of the basic laws of physics 😅 Also the turbocharger system and hybrid systems have exponentially increased maintenance costs anyway which I don't think is very toyota of them. I feel like a huge part of the reputation for reliability was also that when it did break, it wouldn't clean out your wallet like a German vehicle.

​@@marc8vinonot giving the 4R or LC a version of the TTV6 seems like a misstep to me...leaving it only in the GX means you have to step way up to get the best powertrain, which is a shame. Especially when the LC implements the interior design better than the GX this time around.

Hybrid powertrains are great *when* they are made properly. Given that we're talking about Toyota, I'm inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt and presume that it was made properly and therefore will be better than just a plain ICE.

The funny thing is, the segmentation for these triplets is far easier for those outside North America. You have the GX with its TTV6 engine.

The Land Cruiser 250/Prado gets the old tried & true 2.8L 4cyl Turbo Diesel (which also powers the Hilux & 2024 Land Cruiser 76) with a Mild Hybrid option in the future. While the 4Runner is simply not sold anywhere else except the Americas. While the GX

[@HamzaMalik89]

the GX has a 3.4L 6 cylinder. the Toyota products only have 4 cylinder products. that’s a major differentiator as well. the GX will get the hybrid powertrain at some point, but the Toyotas won’t get the 6 cylinder engine.

You’d have to pull up the spec sheet but the rear leg room looks at least 2” smaller than previous gen. That was the first thing I noticed on the new Taco, second thing I noticed which put the nail in the coffin was the price. The Taco, especially if you want the hybrid goes up to like 63k CAD, which can get you into a pretty nice F150 or Sierra. I think this thing spec for spec will be about 3k more than the current MSRP and the Hybrid will only be offered on the TRD-Sport Premium +, Off-Road Premium +, and the Limited and TRD-Pro/Trailhunter. Premium + is an 11k upgrade, and TRD-PRO around 15k, so the Off-Road Premium + will probably be around 68-70k cad. With the Pro pushing 75k…If I was in the market for a 4Runner I’d be jumping out right now and getting a new last gen and spending the difference on aftermarket upgrades, you will never save the price difference in fuel. Imagine a Bronco Sasquatch with another 10k in upgrades or a Rubicon.

@1:10, the Lexus GX was not “twins” with the 4Runner. It was based on the Land Cruiser Prado, which wasn’t sold in North America.

[@digitalkoh]

They were.. GX, Prado, 4R of that gen were based on same platform.

[@sshah2545]

Holy shit, Toyota NAILED it. They’re going to sell a billion of these at a billion $ a pop

[@jcsdesign]

Yeah, it's going to be expensive and super past the Land Cruiser price depending on trim. Anything with the hybrid Max will be over $60k in my opinion.

[@timothydye7276]

Doubtful, most purchased this because of the V6 and now they have been force by the government to neuter it and people will start to lose interest

[@TermlessHGW]

Engine choice is a mistake. Could've kept the V6 as a 3rd option.

[@TheBCninja]

​@@TermlessHGWthe v6 that doesn't exist in any new trim across the entirety of Toyota? The last one to have it is the Camry, and that will no longer exist as of later this year. They are simplifying their entire lineup to essentially use all the same driveline components. Let's hope as consumers it saves us as much money in repair bills as it saves Toyota in economies of scale.

[@undefeatedgaul3201]

@@TheBCninjait should’ve had the GX550 TTV6. At least as an option. Not that it would fix how fucking ugly it is

[@BigMotorLover]

Cool, three tons and 378 max horsepower from a 4 cylinder. Should end up well

[@ytj22]

4cyl doesn't provide all of that power. Electric motor is helping for a good chunk of it.

[@emoney9931]

Toyota also gets 300 HP out of a 1.6 liter 3 cylinder non-hybrid... Don't be so scared of change. Toyota does things right.

[@BigMotorLover]

11:12 ​​​@@emoney9931 you know the Honda S2000 made 240hp from a naturally aspirated 2.0 over two decades ago but sure...this is progress

[@emoney9931]

​@@BigMotorLoverYeah? So? Why would the 4Runner need the power to weight ratio of a sports car? It's got more power and torque than last gen while being more fuel efficient. That's just good engineering.

[@axel3895]

That engine doesn't even last for 50k mile​@@emoney9931

1 gripe after sitting in the 2024 Tacoma which appears to be the same in this video is the height of the dash. You can't see the front passenger side of the hood to judge any distances. "am I 2 inches from scrapping the side of that car or am I 2 feet away?"

[@lexbraxman9270]

I want to see this in white/black. Love the design inside and out.

First!

They commented 59 seconds ago, whereas @MilitantGrunt and @jbrookshirejb2, commented 38 and 39 seconds ago respectively (at the time of me beginning to type this comment, but it has taken several minutes, as I am typing at a leisurely pace while on Facetime with a friend) -Frank W.

@@CassisBlu thank you for the declaration! lol I saw the video at "4 seconds" since posted.

One of the first new vehicles Toyota unveiled that actually looks really good Edit: at least on camera
