Toyota 4Runner: information, price and comparisons

The Toyota 4Runner is a body-on-frame, four-wheel-drive SUV built for off-road use and long service lives. The sixth generation arrived in Canada for 2025, replacing the long-running V6 with a 278 hp 2.4L turbo four or a 326 hp i-FORCE MAX hybrid, both with an eight-speed automatic. The 2026 lineup has eight versions, from the seven-seat SR5 at CA$55,520 to the hybrid Trailhunter at CA$85,654, and NRCan rates the hybrid at 10.0 L/100 km combined. The 4Runner shares its platform with the Tacoma and Land Cruiser, and it won Canadian Black Book's 2025 Best Retained Value award in its category.

Is the 4Runner right for you?

  • Buy it if you want a tough, body-on-frame SUV with four-wheel drive on every version and strong resale value.
  • Buy the hybrid if you want more torque and the best fuel rating: 465 lb-ft and 10.0 L/100 km.
  • Buy the SR5 or Limited if you need a third row; every hybrid is a five-seater.
  • Look elsewhere if you want a roomy third row; The Car Guide calls the 4Runner's "pretty cramped".
  • Look elsewhere if you tow near the limit often; the hybrid is rated lower than the gas model, at 2,631 kg.

Buying a used 4Runner in Canada

Know the generations

The fifth generation (2010 to 2024) used a 4.0L V6 with 270 hp and a five-speed automatic, rated 12.5 to 14.9 L/100 km. The sixth generation (2025 on) uses the turbo four or hybrid and is more efficient.

Fifth-generation issues to check

AutoTrader's used review flags front axle seal leaks (often with oversized wheels), driveline groan around 50 km/h, tailgate rust and worn tailgate struts, and passenger airbag warnings from damaged under-seat wiring.

Inspect for off-road and winter wear

Look underneath for damaged skid plates and frame rust, and ask whether lifts or larger tires have been fitted.
