New TRD Sport trim level.
Pros Impressive off-road capability Wide variety of configurations to suit many buyers Versatile cargo area, especially with the optional slide-out floor

For 2022, the 4Runner family welcomes a new TRD Sport model, which for the longest time has only been offered on its pickup counterpart, the Toyota Tacoma. The 4Runner TRD Sport isn't as sporty as its 20-inch wheels, hood scoop, and Sport badges suggest, but unlike most other models except for the more luxurious Limited, it features adaptive dampers that are designed to improve body control. Inside, the TRD Sport features faux-leather upholstery instead of cloth. All 2022 4Runners now illuminate the road with LED high-beams.
Pros Actually able to excel off-road, packed with standard driver-assistance tech, inside boasts generous passenger and cargo space.
Cons Fuel economy isn't great, interior materials are unimpressive, not nearly as refined as newer mid-size SUVs.
