Toyota 4Runner is popular, to put it mildly. Quite a bit of the questions I get from Toyota fans about upcoming models and new vehicles center on Toyota 4Runner.

And there is really one big topic on their minds. When will 4Runner be redesigned?

That is one big question I wish I could answer – when will we see the “new 4Runner”?

Fans, owners, and 4Runner enthusiasts seem to feel 2024 model year is the time frame for a new body style. They have been waiting quite a while, and just one more year might not be so bad.

Others believe 2025 Toyota 4Runner is when we will see the next generation.

For that one, I still think next gen 4Runner will come for 2024. But I have no knowledge or insider information to support this. Just a feeling for now. I could probably be wrong. Very wrong. Or maybe I am right.

When do you think Toyota 4Runner will be redesigned?

2024 4Runner Rear Window

We will be learning plenty of new information about a redesigned 4Runner as launch date gets closer.

A new engine and powertrain, a hybrid option, modern interior cabin with all-new safety and technology, and brand-new exterior styling are all things to look forward to.

One key feature I think 4Runner fans will insist on keeping is the power-operated vertical rear window. This practical idea allows for fresh air for rear passengers – especially our furry traveling companions. Yep, dogs love it.

I feel this feature is a must-have for many 4Runner enthusiasts, and I believe Toyota will find a way to keep it.

2023 Sequoia Missed Out

The 2023 Toyota Sequoia is, in my opinion, the best and the coolest redesign of any Toyota model I have seen since I began covering Toyota around 2005.

So many things to love here.

Sequoia did not, however, receive the “power back window treatment”. You can pop the rear window top glass, though. So, at least fans get some rear window relief.

Time for Your Toyota 4Runner Comments

What are you expecting with next generation 4Runner? Any special features you want or need to have with this next body style?

Is a power rear window important to you, and would it be a dealbreaker if next generation 4Runner did not have this feature?

Thanks for reading everyone. See you next story.
