- Let's take a look at the all new 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. This new 6th Gen 4Runner will go on sale later this fall. The MSRP has not yet been announced, but I have a bad feeling we may see our first $70K 4R, I hope I am very wrong. Enjoy this more detailed walk around video!

BROTHER!
There's absolutely no reason for that to be $70,000 when 90% is universally used from the Tacoma, from the frame to the powertrain and the interior. I honestly feel that Toyota under delivered the 4Runner. And the exterior is a mixed bag of everything, Hard Pass.
Yea I wish we got the 4R first so it didn’t feel that way.
could not have said it any better myself. Well done, great statement
Toyota has gotten out of touch with its customers these last few years.
WOMP WOMP unfortunately Toyota don’t care because someone will buy it
Made in Japan vs made in Mexico. Japanese quality is legendary. I don’t disagree with you though
Don't forget dealer adjustment +15k, dealer added accessories +5k, taxes and fees.. $95k out the door what a deal!
and this is for a 4 cyl car too.....
No way, really? This is getting scary.
Dealers are the death of these brands. They need to go.
Yea all the added BS too.
Not just the dealers trd Jon….. call a spade a spade… Toyota upped their prices and are pillaging the middle class and all the idiots that remortgage their house to buy one of these…. But trd Jon will never state the facts because he might not get invite to the next Toyota press release
Hate to say it but the more I see the more ambivalent I am. Can't unsee the mustache. No hood struts in 2024? Wonky Tacoma interior? Gloss black on an off-road vehicle? That hybrid battery pack will test the warranty. And they want over $70k for this? Hold on your 5th gens, gentlemen.
not sure yet on price. Hope it isn't
It also look like a Xterra from the side.
Great job on the video Jon! Thanks for making it. That looked like a button on the key fob that pops the rear hatch, but I didn't see one on console for such a task. My only real complaint about sleeping in my 5th Gen is the inability to open the rear hatch from the inside.
there is one on the fob here and also on the driverside near the AUX buttons
75k nahhhhhhh dude. Not a chance
Then buy an SR5 and stop whining. TRD pro models have always been a small fraction of sales
@@jonde4445 Oof. I didn’t mean to trigger you Mr. Offended.
@@WesternRAM you’re the only one triggered and offended bud
@@jonde4445 sorry to offend you
@@WesternRAM sorry Toyota offended you with the price of a car you were never going to buy anyway
First time watching one of you videos. Fantastic job, actually honest which is extremely nice for a change...
Thanks and welcome!
If this is 70k we should all go onto the Lexus GX 550 overtrail
This will be a lot cheaper to maintain. Don't buy a lexus because you'll end up paying more for the name than you will for the vehicle.
Lexus drives amazing tbh. I have a 5th gen 4runner and 2010 lexus. Driving difference is day and night. What maintenance? lexus is probably even better built than Toyota imo.
You get this 4cyl or the doomed 6cyl engine that is failing left and right on the Tundra, Squoia, and LC600 that it is also now on the GX550. I would wait 5 years for them to sort that engine out.
Except the Lexus GX is not reliable, bridge bearing issue in motor, stay clear for at least 4 more years until Toyota fixes Tundra and GX. Now let's see how reliable the 4runner, LC, and Tacoma are. Very high chance all these have issues.
Good point Jon.
In my circles most have 2 cars.
I looked up statistics and only 37% have 2 or more cars. That was a surprise.
I just don't think this is going to be a timeless design like every other 4Runner (including the 2010 design which I loved). Feels more like something teenagers would be all over in 2016.
I plan to get a new vehicle later this year and I'm warming up to it as an option. But only as a more affordable and capable SUV if I feel like being responsible with my money. Toyota will never have a chance with me if they overprice this. I'll just spend more on something else that I feel I'm at least getting some value for the extra cash rather than overpaying for what's ultimately a middle class SUV.
I hope it starts around the same price as the 5th gen.
Thanks for showing. Good job🤙
Like the exterior change up. Wasn’t a surprise that bells and whistles would be updated. Maybe Toyota said hell, let’s put the same stuff in the 4R.
Nice looking rig. It’s new and it’ll sell. No matter what people say about the price.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching.
Price absolutely matters. It will not sell just like the Tacoma. Dealers are packed with them.
@@front_man001
Local dealership can’t keep the 🌮’s on the lot.
Just saying ✅
Definetly are dependent for sure. Saw like 5 on the lots in Texas, but still nowhere near the 20 they had on their lots pre covid.
@@MikeSchneider-wz3ol I'm in central Oregon. Dealer has 14 and even discounting under MSRP.
Just purchased a ‘24 4R TRD PRO in Terra. I was waiting for the 6th gen but wasn’t super impressed on the powertrain once announced. Immediately put a deposit on a ‘24 and finally delivered. Really happy with my choice!
How has it held up?
Last Fall we bought a 23’ Toyota Sequoia TRD Off-Road. Paid 71.5k for the “Lunar Rock” with all the options. I’m so glad that we did! Especially seeing the value for what Toyota is doing not even a year later! This is insane! 🤯😂
Very nice!
Great 2nd video. I was excited when this came out. However, I am really not all that impressed with it. From the 4th gen to the 5th gen was a huge jump but with the same old school look of the 4Runner. I have a pre-facelift 5th gen 2011and I bought it in 2020 because I really like the flat box look if it (took a while to find one). From the current 5th gen to this 6th gen its not a big step up like we saw previously. Its supposed to be an all new design but we have seen it with the Tacoma. My 2011 4Runner has no issues and still runs perfect yet, I am really considering on buying a new 5th gen even with the very minor HP and TQ losses that the 4.0 V6 has from the 6th gen. I think durability surpasses MPG as well.
I think they did a great job w the updated design but they should’ve gone w matte black trim instead of shiny black scratches will be totally noticeable
Thanks for the video!!!! Excited to see what’s to come in the future for the 4Runner…. I love my 5th Gen, but I appreciate the effort that went into the 6th Gen. I know Toyota is listening to us……
For the fender flares, I can see putting paint protection film on them. Keep them from getting scratched.
That would work for sure!
I feel like they should have just made them body color instead of black
Weird why it doesn't have the digital camo exterior or parts, I love it on my Tundra Pro
Awesome video. thanks for the walk through. I just don't understand why they can't tell us the prices of this stuff. I'm excited to see it in person!
There is alot that goes into pricing this early on. Transportaion, materials, production costs, and also profit. They don't really have concrete pricing until it is closer to production time.
I have a 2024, with underground grey color TRD off road premium and I’m still in love with it, it was expensive, like $54k new with 9miles
So happy I scooped up a new 2024 Limited before they are gone
When they revealed it thought it was meh and that the Tacoma was hands down better looking. A month later I definitely came around and it grew on me. Love the design. Still not as good looking as the GX but overall I would love to have one.
Do you know when you can start placing orders/allocations for it? I heard it should be hitting lots by fall (assuming non hybrid first)
I’d love to see the ground clearance under the rocker panel. The prior generations have always had a fuel tank that hangs well below the frame. So, I’m wondering how these new ones look down there.
Can't wait to see it in Black.
Dude all black would be sick!
@@TRDJonspeaking of black, any info on when you get to review the platinum trim?
Probably gonna be at the drive event i'd say. I'm excited to see that one
Love the trailhunter, but I'd rather have a moonroof to see the stars, i dont use a full top camper. Any idea when Premium trim info is coming out? Hoping it has the Everest color. I think ill need to get that and then add my own off road work.
Still wishing Toyota would feature a new manual transmission with this generation 4Runner.
Yeah, considering it's heavily based on the new tacoma. Hopefully, that and the isodynamic seats will come as options at some point during a refresh or something.
I like the rear end angle the best on the new 4runner. 🔥
Looks good for sure
This is awesome, can't wait to see SR5 and TRD Off road
I can’t wait to see it either dude
Yea I think most people aren’t as excited because most of the middle class can barely afford to buy groceries
That isn't a toyota problem, that is a gov problem man. We all need to step up this go around for sure. We are sick of it as well.
What do you think of this color bath mud compare quick sand? I sure hope it will looks phenomenal on tundra trd pro 2025.
I personally like it better. Especially the metallic flake to it.
If this is 70k, it makes zero sense. Why would I buy a 70k 4Runner when I can buy a 68k Lexus GX overtrail?
Exactly
Because the Lexus takes premium fuel and has worse fuel economy
@@TheChitty69 Lexus is a luxury brand; all time 4 wheel drive, and is a 6 cylinder.
@@TheChitty69I don’t think anyone buying a GX cares it takes premium fuel or MPGs is worse. It’s a better package all day.
I need a new car soon after my current 09 GS350 and I'm thinking about 4Runner for next. would be very nice if I get the TRD PRO but so much $$ now. sad but may consider lower trim
Yea for sure a lower trim would be ideal to save the ?
$$$
I wish you would have measured the cargo space in inches. Especially the height with the hybrid batteries there
Didn’t have a tape measure on me my friend.
It's pretty cool, but cool enough to replace my 5th gen with any time soon especially for $75g?
Nahhhhhh
lets all just let these things rot . paid for 21 tacoma i can wait a long time 70k is crazy
I see the results of sharing the same platform across different models. Too many compromises. The biggest being the rear seats that no longer lay flat. I love 4Runner because it was a cavernous box that swallowed everything. I’m talking about the 3rd gen. I skipped the 4th gen hoping the 5th would go back to its roots. Where you could fold the seats down almost flat (the little bit of angle is perfect for sleeping) and sleep in the huge back area on overnight fishing trips. I could raise my tailgate and keep the sun or rain off me. I could stow away my gear in the enclosed rear for any pit stops knowing it was safe. I don’t know who this 4Runner is for but it is not for an outdoors person. I have no idea how after two generations the 4Runner keeps getting wider but the interior space gets smaller. I guess oversized tires and huge fender flares are what is most important to young people. I’ll take a skinny 3rd gen that I don’t have to worry about the Texas brush marring the sides. All these UA-cam folks can talk about is how they managed to get larger wheel and tires on the new generation. Since ‘98 I have used 265/75/16 tires and have only gotten stuck once in my adventures. Rant overs.
I stick with my beloved ‘98 4 Runner. Pass on this generation. Hopefully the 6th gen does some soul searching.
It’s close to flat but only the hybrid model unfortunately. Which means it will cost $$$. Not sure if there will be a cargo tray or anything like they had on the 5th Gen to make the floor completely flat. We will have to see when we get more information about it.
Cant decide between 4 runner trd pro or gx overtrail
Have you made a comparison between the new 2025 4Runner vs the 2024 Land Cruiser? Would be interested in seeing that.
;) video dropping today
Good luck buffing out those glossy black fenders😄
Pretty easy honestly.
If you got to buff after every outing the clear coat will be gone in no time.😂 PPF is the only logical way. Gloss flares look horrible IMO.
Oh for sure.
Can't wait till the SR5 model or just a TRD OR looks like.
Agreed!
Will this TRD PRO version have a heads up display ?
I want the GX550 engine in the 4Runner 6th Gen limited...otherwise, GX550 trial plus is the one I will go for
Beautiful. Can’t wait to see it in person. But definitely torn as I love my 5th gen. TRD PRO. I guess I could buy one for the wife. 👍
Appreciate the review. Fake hood scoop. Space-occupying cupholders for a non-existent third row. Space further limited by hybrid battery. Gloss black scratch-prone fenders. Far too many misses and compromises in my book. And that's before one considers what can only be expected to be atrocious pricing...
Good review, but $70k!? Toyota is definitely reaching with these prices. I paid around $56k I believe for my 2023 TRD pro.
Only very low iq or wealthy people would buy these vehicles at this price
I paid 42K for my 2018 TRD Pro...So what is the $14K difference between ours? Old 5th Gen at the end of the day lol. Hopefully this is right at $65K
I paid 51k out the door with extended warranty and under coat..2023 Toyota 4runner TRD off road premium Barcelona Red with upgraded pro wheels and skid plates
When do you think the trd pro of the 4 runner and tacoma be available?
Tacoma should be this/ next month. 4R will be around Nov/Dec
@@TRDJon heck yea
Jon, I have recently viewed some other channels which have reported thousands of blown motors on the new generation Tundras. They also reported some channels are not allowed to address this issue because they are sponsored by Toyota. Can you address this issue in the future? It definitely makes me pause at the thought of buying a new Toyota truck. God bless!
Those engines are failing due to a casting issue. Lots of early 2022 models are having the problem. Metal in the oil causing the enigne to fail around 20-40K miles.
Do you have wheel specs? I know you mentioned tires, but not so much on the wheel.
It’s an 18” wheel. I believe 8.5” wide too like the Tacoma
Why did they go with the moonroof though? Why not a full panoramic sunroof?
Will this take 91 like the LC or 87 like the Tacoma Hybrid?
Should be 87. LC doesn’t require to my knowledge. Just recommended.
Damn, really considering in trading in my Lunar Rock Pro for this...
Usually against my religion to the get the 1st year of the next generation though just so they can get any kinks ironed out.
You are smoking crack if you give up that pro for this.
The color is growing on me; liking it more than Terra for sure
Oh way better than Terra imo
I occasionally tow. I would never consider a 4 cylinder. I would say maybe a GX 550 but not the engine problems the TT V6 is having.
Baby got some back
cant wait for the 7th gen..
15 yrs later lol
In the next 3-4 weeks I’m going to buy the tried and true 24 model . Well proven drivetrain.
Congratulations dude!
I’ll wait if there’s a 6th gen V2 just like the first 5th gen it eventually changed the front facia/rear, right now it’s kinda giving me a dodge durango vibe.
Really having trouble getting used to the new 2025 look. In every video I notice something new that I don't like. What's up with the Panasonic RQ-2104 cassette tape recorder look between the A/C knobs? 11:23. No es bueno.
Can the moonroof be partially opened or must it be completely opened on 2025 4Runner.
Yes
This is the very reason why I bought a new 5th gen.
I wish there were more exterior differentiation. What is the point on getting a 4runner when it is exactly the same as a tacoma? historically they have always been different with some similarities. Front fascia speaking of course.
Waiting for the 6th gen mid generation refresh already 😂
I don't like the curl up at the rear doors so I bought the 2023 model.
When will Toyota show us the new SR5 and TRD Off-road 4Runner?? I want to see the lower trims and prices.
Dude I agree! Big miss on them honestly for now showing the SR5 and TRD OR at the event. Those are the core sellers for sure. Would have been nice to see them
Cost savings? lol 😂that was funny
I like to joke lol.
I bought a 2024 5th gen TRD ORP in Undergournd early in the Spring. I have upgraded the stereo and screen. Put a leveling kit on it. There is nothing on this new one I need or want. Looks like less legroom on the back compared to mine. I would buy a Land Cruiser before I would spend 70k on a 4runner.
The 2025 4Runner looks to be sitting pretty level on factory suspension (vs. the 2024/5th Gen where the front end would need a few inch leveling kit to even out with the rear). Agree? Thoughts?
I agree
I have a pretty strong eye for symmetry, and I didn't even notice the door handles until you said something. Now I don't know how I feel about them. LMfao
LOL I'm sorry!
@@TRDJon Hahah, it's okay! Keep up the great content, def the best 4runner centric channel out there!
I appreciate you man!
I think I will wait for 7 gen, maybe by then I will have save enough money 😂
When you use the remote start does this suv keep running or shut off when you unlock the door?
It will keep running
That's the big thing with Toyota that I hate with the remote start
Yea my Tacoma stays on now. I think it is a new feature with these new Toyotas with the 3.0 safety system.
@@TRDJon copy that
What would be the price for this trd 4 runner
Really bummed about the cargo space in these cars. Was hoping for a flat load space. The land cruiser is the same issue.
Are there any recovery points? Or least a factory option?
Yes both front and rear
@@TRDJon tow hooks or recovery points?
might as well just get a GX550 overtrail plus, several people have claimed no markups from the dealers. Better engine, luxury, and has a lot of potential off-roading.
Yea those at 80K I don't think worth it at all. Normal overtrail imo is the way to go
Better engine? The main bearings are blowing in the new tundra with the same engine
I was thinking the same thing until I read that 3.5 turbo engine has had its share of main bearing failures from its introduction in 2018 and still applies in the 2024 Tundra models ......... Unfortunately Toyota quality has declined .....so I don't know anymore .....
Jon should I buy 5th gen or wait ? I do want reliability .
Buy it. Won’t plummet in value at all man. Go for it.
@@TRDJonwhat do you think values of 3rd gen tacos will do? Tank?
Not tank but they are significantly lower than what they use to be a year ago already.
Jon should I wipe my ass or wait?
Can you speak on fuel economy? Difference from the abysmal 5th Gen ?
I touch on it in the video. Should be like new Land Cruiser numbers
Hopefully the interior will also come in red.
Yea a cockpit red interior should make its way to the 4Runner as well
Aside from some of the new features like sway bar disconnect and what is hopefully a more modern feeling transmission, this seems like a downgrade from my '21 off road premium model. Hopefully they iron out the looks in future revisions, and I also hope they go back to an actual fold flat bed.
The EPA got its fangs into Toyota!
I came with an open mind to watch this and hopefully see something in that interior that really impressed me… but I’m feeling underwhelmed. The way the 2nd row tumbles does not seem as effective. Agree with you Jon on the fact the dash should have been a bit more unique with the 4Runner. Too close to a Tacoma.
Feel like I’ll be hanging on to my 5th gen longer than I thought…
I like the styling but I am completely unexcited by the 4-cylinder hybrid. I'm going to keep my 5th Gen.
For sure new powertrain needs to prove itself, but if you get the chance to drive one in the future, I highly recommend it.
Thoughts on buying a 2024 instead of waiting for 2025?
None really, if thats what you wanna do then 100% do it. Great vehicle
How tall are you? For height reference on the truck
5’11
Glad the TRD Pro 4runner doesn't have the stupid pro seats from the tacoma
I was coming from a 2 wheel drive GMC wanting a new 4Runner. I was almost set until I saw the price. Not what I was expecting from Toyota
The price isn't out for the new ones.
Wait did the price get released yet?
No. We are assuming mid to high 60s because of the Tacoma TRD Pro pricing
Mid to high 60's and 80k otd.
Rear doors and that shiny fender flare going to get all chewed up with rocks/rock chips
For sure a possibility huh
install protective film those parts as soon as you get the car.
Picking up my new 24 TRD Pro Underground 4Runner this Wednesday, absolutely cannot wait! I know I’ll be living in 2008, and I love the interior of these new 6th gens, but wow have I heard some sketchy things about what Toyota is doing to some of their new engines, especially on the new Tundras… glad I’m going with the tried and true 4.0 V6! #ifitsnotbrokedontfixit
Nice dude!
I’m not impressed with the redesign. The land cruiser is a much better pick now.
For a 60k truck, should have air conditioning vents in the roof for the rear seats.
$70k 😂
@@Rdrunnersac pricing is insane 🤣
@@makatron I picked up a 2024 4Runner TRD off road premium a couple months ago for $44,000. I knew this was coming.
@@Rdrunnersac I still had my hopes for the 4Runner, now I'm trying to justify to fork out a small fortune for the trailhunter
I like the new land cruiser design better
Do you think it is worth the 65k-70k price tag?
Nope. But thats where vehicles are. I dont think my new Tacoma is worth 50K but it still was
@@TRDJon agreed - still hard to swallow that this is the new normal.
You said FT-LBS of torque and not "pound-feet" Thank you so very much. You said it correctly. I am a retired mechanical engineer specializing in refinery machinery and I can ASSURE YOU, in all my years I had never heard the words pound-feet being used to describe the power of machinery. Every other UA-camr uses pound-feet and that should be a crime punishable by banning :)
Edited to add, your video was outstanding but there is no way I would send $70K on that vehicle....will be keeping my 2022 TRD ORP. By the time the dealers finish their prostate exam when you buy one, it will be a $100K OTD....makes me really appreciate me buying my 2020 Land Cruiser, new, for $78K
Oh I’m glad! lol
Maybe if it was the same msrp as the current model I’d consider it.
I’m sure everyone would
If the new Porsche 911 GT4 is like $150k instead I would buy one now. Instead it is $250k+. In another word, ain’t happening, move on dude. You can’t afford it.
Can you get your hands on a top of the line 3 row off-road to show us?
That would be a GX for the Toyota brand or the sequoia trd pro
@@TRDJonso the top of the line trim package for trd off-road is GX? Also im asking about the one without the iforce max. Not interested in the hybrid models
I'm sorry, I miss read this. Yes the TRD OR non hybrid will come in a 3rd row I was told. We don't have an example of that yet unfortunetly.
@TRDJon interested in seeing it and the pricing when it comes out
70k, goddamn. Few years ago land cruiser 200 was 80k, it was the ultimate legendary toyota with just 1 trim. Now look where we r.
Yea that thing was way overpriced as well
Unpopular take, but since I can get like 15k off MSRP of the Armada, I think I'd rather have a full size Armada with the V8 for the same or even less money
For sure deals on that. I think a new one is coming soon too, just keep that in mind.
@@TRDJon oh yeah no doubt. I think year end after they announce the new one you'll be able to get the current gen armada for very cheap
Yea if you plan on keeping it for a while, then resale doesn’t matter. So get the best deal you can!
Does it have power folding mirrors?
Not that I saw, but it may make its way to the production models
@TRDJon when i zoomed in it looked like it did have the button controls.
Good eye!!!!
Why would you ever make the fender flares gloss black? 🤦🏻♂️
first year production models should be discounted because there is gonna be issues IMO..
Please show sticker on door jam showing payload when reviewing.
It’s a prototype so the numbers aren’t accurate
