A Buyer’s Guide to the 2021 Toyota 4Runner

What’s New for 2021

The 2021 4Runner is built on a truck platform, making it particularly rugged with exceptional off-road capabilities. Every trim level this year is now equipped with LED headlights while the TRD Pro model has received an upgraded suspension system. The TRD Pro has also been given a new paint scheme and redesigned wheels. Each model is tough and reliable with an array of standard safety features.

 

High-Performing Powertrain

Every 2021 4Runner comes standard with the 4.0-liter V6 engine. This powertrain features 24 valves, variable valve timing, and dual overhead cams. It generates 270 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque, which translates into excellent performance. With good acceleration and plenty of power, drivers can feel confident towing a trailer or hauling a full load of passengers and cargo.

 

Always Ready for Adventure

One of the best reasons to own a 4Runner is its off-road performance. With a 4×4 version of each trim level, you can choose the model that will best suit your lifestyle. Every model has a great suspension system and a solid frame with spectacular ground clearance. A locking rear differential distributes power to the rear wheels and a traction control and Crawl Control system helps you navigate tough terrain.

 

Expanded and Versatile Cargo Area

Extra cargo space is one of the most popular reasons any buyer chooses an SUV over a coupe or sedan. A standard 4Runner has plenty of extra space, even with all of the seats occupied. Depending on the trim level, between 46.3 and 47.2 cubic feet of cargo area is available.

 

When the second-row seats are folded down, the total volume of cargo space available expands to 89.7 cubic feet. Some models come equipped with a sliding cargo deck that makes loading and unloading easier than ever.

 

Packed With Advanced Safety Features

Safety is at the very top of Toyota’s priorities, as it should be for you. It’s the most important category to consider before choosing a new vehicle. The 2021 4Runner comes equipped with a large compilation of standard safety features. Lane Departure Alerts, a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, and an advanced airbag system with a total of 8 airbags are included in the Toyota Safety Sense package.
