After more than a decade without a full redesign, the legendary Toyota 4Runner finally entered a new era in 2025, and Toyota Town is proud to carry-on this revolution with the new 2026 Toyota 4Runner. Only a year ago, the ground-up transformation brought bold new styling, increased capability, more standard features, and the latest Toyota technology, all while staying true to the rugged DNA that 4Runner fans love, and the 2026 model follows suit. The 2026 Toyota 4Runner shares key engineering elements with its Tacoma sibling, including a 2.4-liter turbocharged engine that delivers an impressive 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. Built on a strong steel frame with an off-road-tuned suspension, the new 4Runner is more confident and capable than ever. Inside, the 4Runner receives a major technology upgrade. Higher trim levels feature a large 14-inch touchscreen infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while an available 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster puts essential driving information front and center. The interior blends modern connectivity with the durability and practicality expected from an SUV built for adventure. With an extensive lineup of twelve trim levels available at Toyota Town, including rugged favorites like TRD Pro and upscale options like Limited, there’s a 2026 Toyota 4Runner to match every lifestyle across Tracy, Lodi, Modesto, Elk Grove, and Stockton. Toyota Town invites you to join us as we take a deep dive into the 2026 Toyota 4Runner, covering everything you want to know from engine specifications and interior highlights to trim options and details on the available hybrid powertrain.

The 2026 Toyota 4Runner, available for sale now at our dealership in Stockton, delivers a thoroughly modernized set of specs while staying true to its legendary body-on-frame capability. Powering the standard 4Runner is Toyota’s i-FORCE 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, paired with a smooth and responsive 8-speed automatic transmission. This setup produces 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque, providing strong acceleration for daily driving along with the muscle needed for towing and trail duty. Maximum performance and efficiency come via Toyota’s i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain. This advanced system pairs the same 2.4-liter turbo engine with an integrated electric motor, delivering a class-leading 326 horsepower and a massive 465 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful powertrain ever offered in a 4Runner. Like the standard engine, the hybrid is matched to an 8-speed automatic transmission, ensuring seamless power delivery both on-road and off. The 2026 4Runner comes standard with rear-wheel drive, while multiple four-wheel-drive systems are available depending on trim level, including part-time and full-time 4WD configurations. Built for serious off-road capability, select trims offer advanced hardware such as limited-slip differentials, electronically locking differentials, and an updated Multi-Terrain Select system that now operates in both 4-High and 4-Low, allowing the 4Runner to confidently adapt to sand, mud, rocks, and snow. Fuel efficiency varies by configuration, with gas-powered models delivering ratings in the high-teens to low-20s mpg, while the i-FORCE MAX hybrid achieves up to an estimated 29 mpg, making it the most efficient 4Runner ever produced.

The interior of the 2026 Toyota 4Runner blends rugged durability with modern technology, drawing inspiration from the recently redesigned Toyota Tacoma while delivering a more refined and versatile cabin. Built with adventure in mind, the layout features large, glove-friendly dials, toggle-style switches, and a sturdy front-passenger grab handle, reinforcing the 4Runner’s reputation for toughness and trail-ready functionality. Overall cabin space remains practical and well-balanced, but the available third-row seating adds welcome flexibility for families or extra passengers. Cargo capacity is generous, offering 47.2 cubic feet of space with all rows in place and expanding to a maximum of 89.5 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded flat. Technology takes a major leap forward in the 2026 4Runner. A standard 8-inch infotainment touchscreen anchors the dashboard, while higher trim levels upgrade to a large 14-inch touchscreen for an even more immersive experience. Both systems feature wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with multiple USB-C ports and digital key capability for everyday convenience. Behind the wheel, drivers will find a new 7-inch digital gauge cluster as standard equipment, replacing the previous analog setup. For a more premium, high-tech feel, an available 12.3-inch fully digital instrument display delivers crisp graphics and customizable vehicle information.

Stepping up to the TRD Sport Premium enhances comfort with SofTex-trimmed heated and ventilated front seats, a hands-free power liftgate with a power rear window, and a larger 14-inch infotainment touchscreen. For those who plan to leave the pavement behind, the TRD Off-Road is trail-ready with 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 33-inch all-terrain tires, skid plates, a locking rear differential, and advanced systems like Multi-Terrain Select and Crawl Control. The TRD Off-Road Premium builds on this foundation by adding SofTex-trimmed seating, heated and ventilated front seats, plus a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob for added refinement. The 4Runner Limited leans into upscale versatility with 20-inch machined-finish alloy wheels, available third-row seating, a power tilt-and-slide moonroof, and a premium 14-speaker JBL audio system that includes a subwoofer, amplifier, and JBL FLEX portable Bluetooth speaker. Hybrid capability arrives with the TRD Off-Road i-FORCE MAX, which combines trail performance with electrified power. This model includes fixed running boards, a 2,400-watt AC power supply, Qi wireless charging, and Bilstein monotube shocks with remote reservoirs. The TRD Off-Road Premium i-FORCE MAX adds luxury touches like heated and ventilated SofTex seats, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, and the advanced Multi-Terrain Monitor with selectable front, side, and rear camera views. For buyers seeking hybrid power with a refined edge, the Limited i-FORCE MAX offers 20-inch machined alloy wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, the 14-inch touchscreen, and subtle chrome exterior accents.
