These mean machines boast a powerful 2.4L Turbo Hybrid powertrain, delivering a whopping 326 horsepower and 465 lb feet of torque. The 4Runner stands out with its striking bronze Wheels, Toyo all-terrain Tires, and a plethora of off-road features like skid plates, a snorkel, Rock sliders, and an air compressor in the trunk. Meanwhile, the Tacoma impresses with its rugged design, featuring bronze Wheels, all-terrain tires, rigid lights, a snorkel, and an ARB branded sport bar in the bed.
Both the 4Runner and Tacoma come equipped with rear Locker, sway bar disconnect, multi-terrain select, and crawl control, ensuring they can handle any off-road challenge thrown their way. Inside, these beasts offer a similar experience with grayish seats, gold accents, big screens, climate controls, heated seats, and a trailer brake controller.
