Toyota has introduced the ’23 4Runner 40th Anniversary Special Edition this year to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the model’s nameplate. This special edition is based on the SR4 and is available in white, red, and black paint schemes with tri-colored graphics on the grille and body. This special edition also features 17-inch bronze wheels.

That bronze color is repeated inside the vehicle with bronze stitching on the shift knob and leatherette seats. Additionally, this model includes callouts on the floormats and front headrests. You will also find several interior badges to match. In addition to this 40th-anniversary model, Toyota has added standard rear-cross traffic alerts and blind-spot monitoring across the 4Runner lineup.

Power and Performance

Every model of the 4Runner is powered with a 4.0L V6 that delivers 270 horsepower. This snappy engine is paired with a smooth five-speed automatic transmission. This mid-size crossover is available in rear-wheel and full- or part-time four-wheel drive. These systems combine for impressive performance on the pavement and excellent off-road capabilities.

In addition to its off-road prowess, the ’23 4Runner has impressive towing capabilities. You can easily haul your boat to the lake with the 4Runner’s maximum towing capacity of up to 5,000 lbs.

Enhanced Suspension

The TRD Sport model is equipped with X-REAS sport-enhanced suspension. This suspension system ensures that you can corner with confidence and traverse rugged terrain easily. The TRD Sport model also has massive 20-inch alloy wheels and rugged tires for optimal traction. This suspension system feels like you are riding on a cloud, even over the nastiest roads.

Interior Design

The ’23 4Runner features three easily accessible USB ports that keep your devices charged while on the go. Available heated and ventilated front seats ensure you stay warm while traversing mountain trails and cool when crashing through the desert. Choose the available power tilt/slide moonroof on the 4Runner, and you can enjoy the sunshine while breathing fresh air on the road.

The ’23 4Runner has an available automatic dual-zone climate control system. This system makes it easy for you and your passenger to select the temperature you want so that you can enjoy your ride to its fullest.
