Moderate acceleration is provided by the 270-horsepower, 278 lb-ft. Suited well to its size and weight are Nitto Terra Grappler 265/70R17 tires.
The heavy, 4,760-pounder is not particularly smooth in ride quality, somewhat bumpy, with its TRD-tuned Fox shocks and springs. The two-row cabin is roomy, with 47.2 cubic feet of cargo space. The Toyota is a great offroader with its part-time four-wheel drive, the low-range transfer case shifter on the console, locking rear differential and multi-terrain shift selector placed awkwardly on the overhead console.
The ’22 4Runner is being offered in only three other hues – super white, midnight black metallic and magnetic gray metallic.
