Functionally, the 4Runner is near perfect. Rear hatch is wide and easy to open, with a bonus being a Toyota-typical roll down rear window which I happen to love. Roof rack comes standard on all models adding to the outdoorsy look. Driving around, no one will mistake this for anything less than a truck, and that’s a good thing.

It is a very elegant car when it comes to driving with the family, it is very safe and its performance is excellent.
