It came in handy, hauling some of our camping gear and an extra 5-gallon jug of fuel, just in case. They’re from the 4Runner TRD Pro, which is still the most off-road capable model, and it’s the only 4Runner with a standard Yakima MegaWarrior cargo basket on its roof. Its gun-metal grey 17-inch wheels are cool. What does the Venture get you over the TRD Off-Road Premium, which costs $1,815 less? Honestly, not much. The 4Runner’s setup is also very similar to the underpinnings of the Lexus GX 470, which has the same 109.8-inch wheelbase. Its chassis is similar to the Tacoma pickups, but the 4Runner’s rear suspension uses coils instead of leaf springs, which smooth out its ride and allow for more articulation off-road. It’s based on the TRD Off-Road Premium, and it's one of four 4Runner models to get the majority of Toyota’s arsenal of off-road hardware, including a locking rear differential, crawl control, Active Traction Control and Multi-Terrain Select, which allows you to tune its 4x4 system for different surfaces like mud, sand and rocks.Īll 4Runners come with a two-speed transfer case, a live rear axle and a control-arm front suspension. With a base price of $45,405, the new 2020 Toyota 4Runner Venture Special Edition brings the SUV's list of variations to eight. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Amazon Alexa compatibility are now standard across the line up, along with two USB ports and a suite of active-safety systems including lane-departure warning, automated emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.
#4RUNNER VENTURE SPECIAL EDITION UPDATE#
This year, all 4Runners get a mild but meaningful interior update with new gauges and a larger 8.0-inch touchscreen, which replaces a tiny 6.1-inch unit.

And last year Toyota sold more than 130,000 4Runners.Īlthough the 4Runner hasn’t received a full redesign since 2010, Toyota does keep investing in its “Scrambler,” giving it a facelift in 2014, and introducing the TRDPro model a year later. Jeep Wrangler sales are through the roof. And like the bikes, they’re all the rage. Trucks like the new 2020 Toyota 4Runner Venture Special Edition: rugged looking, full frame 4x4s that perform well both on- and off-road. In stark contrast to the gaggles of car-based crossovers roaming our streets, the SUV world also has its fair share of Scramblers. It was a modern take on a model it offered in the 1960s, and now many other manufacturers have followed its lead, including Ducati, Indian and BMW. The Triumph Scrambler kicked off the craze in 2006, with its high pipes and knobby tires. Rugged-looking street bikes that also perform well off-road. In the motorcycle world, Scramblers are all the rage.
