2006 Toyota 4Runner Sport Edition V6 Summary
For 2006, Toyota's mid-size SUV received some noticeable exterior refinishing, including and a new bumper and grille design. New headlights were also added, and the windshield glass was thickened to reduce excess wind noise. The Sport addition trim was fitted with a roof rack and tube steps.
The Sport Edition is the mid-level 4Runner trim, finishing the already athletic-looking SUV with an even more sport-oriented appearance.
All 4runners come equipped with a CD audio system with MP3 player input, cruise control, full power accessories, keyless entry, and running boards. The Sport Edition upgrades to 17-inch wheels, color-coordinated side mirrors, a hood scoop, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The X-REAS cross-positioned shock system has also been added, to improve stability when cornering.
The Sport Edition is available in four variations, like both other trims, due to two interchangeable engine and drive train combinations. This model pairs the smaller engine with the rear-wheel 4x2 drive train. The 4.0 liter VVT-i V-6 generates 236 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. Both engines are teamed with a five speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. This is the most fuel efficient 4Runner setup, with an EPA estimate of 17/21 mpg.
