What’s New on the 2023 Toyota 4Runner SUV Coming to Grimes, IA

The latest Toyota 4Runner near me is now available at Toyota of Des Moines in Grimes, IA. But what makes this new Toyota SUV different from its predecessor? Take a closer look at the latest 4Ruunner. 


New 40th Anniversary Special Edition


No matter the Toyota 4Runner near me that you choose, it will now feature standard rear cross-traffic alert and blind-spot monitoring. 


The other big news for this new Toyota SUV in Grimes, IA, is the 40th Anniversary Special Edition to celebrate the 4Runner’s 40th anniversary. This special edition of the Toyota 4Runner near me builds on the entry-level SR5 and will have a limited production of 4,040 units. 


This special edition will stand out in terms of styling. The exterior features tri-colored graphics on the grille and body sides, on top of black, white, or red paint. The exterior also includes bronze 17-inch wheels. Inside, the leatherette on the shift knob and seats also gets a touch of bronze, in this case via its stitching.  


Off-Road Capabilities


Depending on the trim you choose for the Toyota 4Runner near me, this SUV is highly capable off the road. Choosing either the TRD Pro or TRD Off-Road models, for example, will give you plenty of off-roading features. 


The TRD Off-Road has an electronically locking rear differential to maximize your traction when the ground is muddy or slippery. You also get selectable drive modes via Crawl Control and Multi-Terrain Select. Plus, you can add a Kinetic Dynamic Suspension to your new Toyota SUV in Grimes, IA. This improves wheel articulation when off-roading. You can also enjoy excellent ground clearance on certain configurations. 


Power


In addition to being ready for off-road adventures, this new Toyota SUV in Grimes, IA, is also powerful. It has 270 horsepower from the 4.0-liter V6 that works with a 5-speed automatic. Opt for rear-wheel drive or one of the 4WD systems. You can choose from part-time or full-time 4WD. You can also tow up to 5,000 pounds. 


Inside the Cabin


The interior of the 2023 Toyota 4Runner near me is familiar unless you get the anniversary edition with its special stitching. Families will want to consider a model with the optional third row. If you opt for a two-row model, consider the pull-out cargo deck. This can handle 440 pounds and makes it easier to load and unload the SUV. 


In terms of tech, this new Toyota SUV in Grimes, IA, comes standard with an 8-inch touch screen supplemented by some physical buttons and knobs. You also get standard Wi-Fi capability, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Consider a 4Runner with JBL premium audio (and 15 speakers) or built-in navigation. 


Safety


As mentioned, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are newly standard. These are in addition to standard adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and lane-departure warning. The Toyota 4Runner near me also comes standard with automated emergency braking and forward-collision warning.
