Toyota 4RunnerOverview
Rarely does a car get more popular with age, but that's exactly what's happening with the Toyota 4Runner. Perhaps that has to do with today's SUV-hungry buyers, but the 4Runner is also a distinctive model. It is rugged and off-road capable, yet it's spacious and family-friendly. Sure, it's a bit rough around the edges and lacks many of the technology features you'll find in other SUVs, but there's an honesty to the 4Runner and a just-right goodness that keeps it relevant. Discover the ins and outs on used Toyota 4Runners, available now in Carvana's inventory.
NOTEWORTHY FEATURES
Outstanding Off-Road Capability
While the days of true off-road vehicles that double as daily drivers may be dwindling, the Toyota 4Runner is one of the few SUVs left that rises to the occasion when the pavement ends. With standard equipment such as mud guards and skid plates, the 4Runner truly shines on off-road trails. And with four-wheel-drive enabled, the 4Runner chews up rugged terrain and steep inclines thanks to hill-start assist and hill-descent control.
Ample Cargo Capacity
Cargo space is a non-issue with the Toyota 4Runner. With 47 cubic feet of storage area behind the second-row seats, the 4Runner outclasses segment competitors such as the Jeep Grand Cherokee, as well as some large crossovers. Fold the seats down and that number increases to 89.7 cubic feet.
Powerful V6 Engine
If you've riding around in a burly vehicle with formidable off-road capabilities, you're going to need a strong engine to help facilitate your good time. The 4Runner has just that, as its 4.0-liter V6 engine produces 270 horsepower and 278-pound feet of torque.
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Infotainment Interface
The Toyota 4Runner does come with a 6.1-inch touchscreen interface, however using it can be a bit of a hassle. For some, the clumsy setup process for the Entune system could be enough of a turn-off to dissuade from purchasing this rugged vehicle.
Fuel Economy
What the 4Runner offers in power and off-road capability, it lacks in kind when it comes to fuel economy. The rear-wheel drive model gets an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined (17 mpg city/22 mpg highway), while the 4Runner with four-wheel drive gets slightly less at 18 mpg combined (17 mpg city/21 mpg highway).
Ride Quality
There's no question that the 4Runner is at its best when it's in its element off-road, but conversely, the ride around town can feel a bit stiff. Bumps and ruts in the road reverberate throughout the vehicle, as the rugged suspension and large tires have a tendency to bounce passengers around a bit.
