After 15 Years An Actually New Toyota 4Runner Is Coming

So, as it turns out, I wield the power of God. Earlier this week I wrote about how the fifth-generation Toyota 4Runner has been to 13 consecutive New York International Auto Shows since it debuted at the State Fair of Texas in 2009. Well, it looks like Toyota heard me, because just a few hours later the automaker posted a teaser image on its Instagram account showing off a little image of the upcoming sixth-generation 4Runner.

Yes, I know this is a coincidence. Anyway, we cannot glean too much information from the post on Instagram. It contains six images – the first five are of the previous generations of the body-on-frame SUV. The final image is the big one here. We get a glimpse at the rear bumper of a baby blue sixth-generation 4Runner. Viewers also get a look at a silver bumper and a little sliver of the driver’s-side taillight. We can also see a license plate that reads “LUS 282.” Maybe that means something – who knows? The final big thing we can see is a new “4Runner” nameplate and font that is located on the lower part of the tailgate.
