- Pricing for the 2026 4Runner has climbed by up to $1,000.
- However, most trims only see a smaller $800 increase.
- There only appears to be one minor change across the lineup.
The 2026 Toyota 4Runner will arrive at dealerships this fall with a base price of $41,570. That’s $800 more than its predecessor, while the destination fee also climbs from $1,450 to $1,495.
Since the SUV was redesigned for 2025, changes are extremely limited. Toyota barely mentioned anything, but confirmed a stabilizer disconnect is now optional on the 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium with the i-Force Max powertrain.

That appears to be the extent of the updates, but the $800 price increase is largely across the board. That being said, the 4Runner TRD Pro climbs from $66,900 to $67,900 for a $1,000 jump.
Since changes are minor, we’ll remind you the entry-level 4Runner SR5 features LED lighting units, black roof rails, and 17-inch alloy wheels. They’re joined by a relatively basic interior with a 7-inch cluster display, an 8-inch infotainment system, and an eight-speaker audio system.
Despite being short on amenities, the SR5 comes with a host of standard driver assistance systems including Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Tracing Assist, and a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection. They’re joined by Front Cross-Traffic Alert, Traffic Jam Assist, and a Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Other highlights include Automatic High Beams, Road Sign Assist, Proactive Drive Assist, and Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist.
Power is provided by a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine developing 278 hp (207 kW / 282 PS) and 317 lb-ft (429 Nm) of torque. It’s connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission, which can be paired to an optional four-wheel drive system.
At the opposite end of the spectrum is the range-topping 4Runner TRD Pro, which features Rigid LED fog lights as well as a Toyota-branded grille with an integrated light bar. The model also has skid plates, a performance exhaust, and a hands-free power liftgate. They’re accompanied by a moonroof and matte black 18-inch wheels.
The upgrades continue inside as buyers will find a heated leather steering wheel as well as heated and ventilated SofTex front seats with power adjustment. Other niceties include a dual-zone automatic climate control system, a wireless smartphone charger, and a digital rearview mirror with HomeLink. This is on top of a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a larger 14-inch infotainment system.
Motivation comes from an i-Force Max hybrid powertrain, which produces 326 hp (243 kW / 331 PS) and 465 lb-ft (630 Nm) of torque. It’s paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission and a standard four-wheel drive system.
