SR5
Gas
Starting off the 2026 Toyota 4Runner trim levels is the SR5. This is one of only two models that provide available third-row seating for up to seven passengers. Standard perks are an 8-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a power rear window, a Blind Spot Monitor, and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0.
TRD Sport
Gas
This trim adds a sport-tuned suspension and some sporty styling elements, like a honeycomb grille and gloss-black hood scoop. It adds heat to the seats and brings a larger digital gauge cluster: 12.3 inches.
TRD Off-Road
Gas or Hybrid
TRD Off-Road is where the performance enhancements truly begin. Bilstein® monotube shocks, Multi-Terrain Select, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and fixed running boards are just some of the perks of this variant.
TRD Sport Premium

Building on TRD Sport, you'll find "premium" perks like a hands-free power liftgate, SofTex heated and ventilated front seats, a 14-inch touchscreen display, and a Panoramic View Monitor.
TRD Off-Road Premium

This is the only other model that has available third-row seating. Luxuries for Limited include leather-trimmed heated and ventilated front seats, chrome exterior accents, a moonroof, and an adaptive variable suspension.
