MakerSource: 2016 4Runner Product Information

A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

Estimate ±A dashed underline marks our estimate where the maker prints no figure: worked out from its other numbers, shown with its margin (±), and never used for a headline, comparison or ranking.

02 / What changed

New for 2016

The 2016 Toyota 4Runner against the 2015, the previous model year we hold. Only what Toyota’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

No retail configuration added or dropped: the 9 sold in the 2015 are all here.
Towing: 5,000 lb (2015: 4,700 lb).
Same range as the 2015: payload, ground clearance, curb weight and length.
Towing rating differs on 9 of 9 configurations sold in both years: +300 lb.

The 2016 documents

1 document behind the 2016 Toyota 4Runner’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.

These are Toyota’s published figures for the models it describes, not a weighbridge or a tape measure; your own vehicle’s options change them. Found a figure that doesn’t match the document? Tell us.
