2007 Toyota 4Runner V-6 4x4 Sport Edition Summary
In the past twenty-five years, Toyota's 4Runner has evolved from a modest two-door pickup variation into a sleek and rugged-looking midsize SUV. The models of the early and mid-1980s simply resembled capped pickup trucks, but the 4Runner of the 21st century has its own unique style, set significantly apart from its closest relative, the Tacoma. Now in its fourth generation, the 4Runner is more akin to the Land Cruiser than ever before.
The Sport Edition is suggestive of the traditional SR5 intentions, but it offers far more in the way of standard features. Automatic climate control, CD player, power windows and mirrors, power seats, and keyless entry are found in every model. This trim also includes unique elements like special seat fabric and X-REAS shock absorbers. X-REAS is a performance-focused addition which features a cross-linked design, and special hydraulic pumps and sensors to alleviate body roll. The Sport Edition also adds 17 inch wheels.
The engine is a 4.0 liter V-6, supported by TRD's Variable Valve Timing + intelligence system. VVT-i offers horsepower improvements, lower emissions, and higher fuel economy. This V-6 supplies the 4200 pound SUV with 236 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. Fuel efficiency is pulled down a bit by the addition of 4WD, to 17/21 mpg. The 4Runner is only offered with a five-speed automatic transmission.
