The official premiere of the new SUV of the Japanese brand, intended primarily for the American market, will take place next week, April 9.
Toyota began producing the 4Runner in 1984, and over the years the mid-size SUV has changed generations four times. The current fifth generation appeared back in 2009, this SUV underwent an update in 2013. And by 2022, the Japanese manufacturer was generous only with the anniversary version of the 40th Anniversary. Now the development of the next generation Toyota 4Runner is finally in its final stages.
First teaser of the new generation Toyota 4Runner
Toyota announced the sixth generation 4Runner at the end of last month, and the first teaser was published at the same time. Now the manufacturer has announced the premiere date – April 9 – and published another photo, partially showing the appearance of the SUV. Note that both photographs show the food of the future new product.
So, in the first teaser you can see the silver lower part of the bumper with integrated reflectors and rear parking sensors. The model name is now located below, under the license plate area. The new 4Runner also has a different handle on the tailgate. And judging by the second teaser, there is an inscription with the brand name on it.

In addition, the images show that the sixth-generation SUV will have differently shaped taillights with large black plastic dividing lines. The new Toyota 4Runner also has traditional outside mirrors, roof rails, and a spoiler on the top of the tailgate. One of the main features of the model was left, we are talking about a lowering rear window with electric drive, the control button is located on the top panel.
It is assumed that the new generation SUV could have a number of common features with the Toyota Land Cruiser presented last year (in some markets the model is sold under the name Land Cruiser Prado). Apparently, from him the “sixth” Toyota 4Runner received a bright blue tint for the body color.
