2025 Toyota 4Runner Release Date & What's New

2025 Toyota 4Runner Models Exterior Profiles

This year the iconic Toyota 4Runner is getting completely redesigned as it enters its sixth generation since being introduced all the way back in 1984. We cannot wait to get our hands on a 2025 Toyota 4Runner for ourselves here in Fort Scott, Kansas, but until then we have plenty of details and images to sink our teeth into thanks to the automaker’s reveal last week. With that in mind, we thought we’d highlight what’s new in the vehicle and touch on when its release date will be.

“This all-new 4Runner has incredible versatility and capability that nicely rounds out our truck family story. 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.”

– Dave Christ, Vice President and General Manager, Toyota

When will the all-new, next-gen 4Runner be available?

A specific month or date hasn’t been announced yet, but Toyota has confirmed that the 2025 Toyota 4Runner will be arriving here in the U.S. sometime this fall. That means we should be able to expect the 4Runner to arrive here in Fort Scott sometime between September and November. If we learn anything more specific, we’ll be sure to fill you in here on the blog.
