By: ImportRates.com 2010 Toyota 4Runner Review Toyota has revealed the new, fifth generation, of their popular mid-sized truck-based SUV Toyota 4Runner. In 2010 it has a new design with more aggressive look, better fuel-economy and more power. Walkaround The 2010 Toyota 4Runner is taller, wider and longer than its predecessor. It has optional third row of seats and should be available in three trims: the top Limited model, the mid-level model SR5 and the Trail version for those who wants best off-road capabilities. It will be available in a rear wheel 42, part-time 44 and full-time multi-mode 44 configurations. All 2010 Toyota 4Runner 44 models are equipped with a 4 liter 270-hp V6 engine and a 5-speed ECT-i automatic transmission. The 42 models are equipped with a 2.7 liter 157 HP 4-cylinder engine mated to a 4-speed ECT automatic or the 4.0 liter V6 with the 5-speed ECT-i automatic. Summary Toyotas Crawl Control (CRAWL) is one of features available in the Trail trim. That is an adjustable electro-mechanical system that can be tuned to match the terrain by selecting any of five speed levels. This trim also features a Multi-Terrain Select system which allows the 44 operator to dial in wheel slip control to match the terrain. The current midsize Toyota 4Runner SUV comes in three trim levels: SR5, Sport Edition and Limited. Each trim is available with two engine options. A base 4.0-liter V6 engine puts out 236 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. A more powerful 4.7-liter V8 makes 260 hp and a healthy 306 lb-ft of torque. A five-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard across all trims, and four-wheel drive is optional. The Sport Edition comes with the expected roof rack, side steps and foglights, but it is more than just an appearance package. There are bigger front brakes, 17-inch alloy wheels and Toyota's X-REAS suspension system, which reduces body roll in turns. The Limited is the top-of-the-line model, adding the usual premium features, such as leather seating, dual climate control and a CD changer. All trims get the latest electronic gadgetry. Downhill Assist Control automatically modulates the brakes and throttle to maintain smooth descents. Hill-Start Assist Control helps prevent the SUV from rolling backward. In road tests and reviews, we found the Toyota 4Runner to be surprisingly light and responsive for a truck-based SUV. It feels spirited and taut. There is minimal body lean on even the twistiest of roads, although cornering limits are predictably low. Both engines provide a good amount of hustle, and for general use most buyers should be happy with the more fuel-efficient V6. For those planning on frequent towing, the V8 is likely the better choice. In any trim, the 4Runner shines off-road. Downsides to the 4Runner are few. One concern is that it provides less cargo space than most of its midsize competitors. Models with the optional third-row seat are further hampered, as the third row doesn't fold completely flat while providing only a very limited amount of legroom. Due to the 4Runner's utilitarian roots, attentive drivers may notice trucklike body motions at times. # # # ImportRates.com and its affiliates offers you a new and innovative way of buying your next new or pre-owned car, boat or RV in the United Sates at lower USA prices for import/export!
