Toyota has established the 4Runner as a capable midsize SUV, filling a unique niche in the market. In Toyota's lineup, it offers buyers a more ruggedized SUV than the Highlander while offering a size advantage over the FJ Cruiser and a price advantage over the Land Cruiser. The latest model adds a more luxurious interior, but retains its off-road capabilities. A 4.0L V-6 is standard. 4Runners are available in 2WD or part-time 4WD models in the SR5 and Trail grades. A Torsen(R) center differential is standard on the 4WD 4Runner Limited. An available third row seat allows the 4Runner to carry seven.
