4Runner i-FORCE MAX
Style That Thrives Off-Grid
Adventure-ready heritage meets modern hybrid muscle in the all-new 2025 Toyota 4Runner i-FORCE MAX. Built on the trusted body-on-frame platform that’s taken generations of 4Runners up mountain passes and across desert trails, this sixth-generation SUV now adds a turbocharged 2.4-liter powertrain—plus an available 326-horsepower i-FORCE MAX hybrid—to deliver more torque and better efficiency without sacrificing the rough-and-ready character drivers love. Standard 18-inch alloys wrapped in 33-inch all-terrain tires alongside Bilstein monotube shocks with remote reservoirs and the latest Toyota off-road technologies mean the 4Runner i-FORCE MAX still revels in sand washes and rock gardens, while a hands-free liftgate, power rear window, and fold-flat seating make daily errands and road-trip load-outs effortless.
Inside, the 4Runner i-FORCE MAX balances durability with newfound refinement. Optional third-row seating lets families or friend groups stretch out for seven-up adventures, and Limited models pamper front occupants with leather-trimmed, heated, and ventilated seats. Every trim benefits from Toyota Safety Sense 3.0—now including Proactive Driving Assist—and an available 14-inch Audio Multimedia touchscreen with wireless smartphone mirroring and a Multi-Terrain Monitor that shows obstacles from every angle. The result is the most capable, connected, and comfortable 4Runner i-FORCE MAX yet—ready to haul gear to the trailhead, shuttle kids to practice, and tackle the long route home when pavement gives way to dirt.
