See Toyota's first 4Runner SUV in 15 years, and it is not an EV

Toyota is introducing an all-new Toyota 4Runner for its 2025 model year, updating the popular SUV for the first time in 15 years and offering a hybrid version.

Toyota introduced its all-new 2025 4Runner this week, unveiling its first major update to the popular SUV in 15 years.

The sixth-generation 4Runner, available for sale in the U.S. in the fall, will have a hybrid version available for the first time.

"This all-new 4Runner has incredible versatility and capability that nicely rounds out our truck family story," said Dave Christ, Toyota group vice president and general manager, in a statement.

"We’ve sold over 3 million in the 40 years it has been on sale, and this sixth-generation model offers a cool new look and incredible features, yet retains the rugged style and capability our customers love about this icon of adventure," Christ added.

The new 4Runners come standard with Toyota's i-FORCE turbocharged, 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that produces 278 horsepower. The hybrid model, which has an i-FORCE MAX powertrain with an electric motor added to the gas engine, is juiced up to 326 horsepower.

FORD POSTPONES ROLLOUT OF SOME NEW EVs AS DEMAND WANES

While other automakers are investing heavily in all-electric vehicles despite waning demand, Toyota has leaned into hybrid models that are more popular with consumers.

Hybrids accounted for 9.3% of new light vehicle registrations in the United States from January to November in 2023, outstripping those of EVs by 1.8 percentage points, according to S&P Global Mobility data.

That is benefiting Toyota, which was the biggest hybrid seller in the U.S. with more than one-third of the new registrations, followed by Honda with 20%, South Korea's Hyundai Motor and its affiliate, Kia, and Ford.
