Buying the 2017 Toyota 4Runner
CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2017 Toyota 4Runner before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 2017 Toyota 4Runner, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Before you sign for the 4Runner
NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Owners filed 36 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, service brakes and electrical system; have those parts checked.
The figures, translated
Power comes from the 4.0L 6-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
It is rated at 12.8 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 38 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $198.40 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,700 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
The higher seat of a full-size SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Best uses
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.
Rent it for a week first
Drive the 4Runner on your commute before you commit to it. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Choosing the right one
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
