Want a lot of power for off-roading and taking on extreme road conditions? Both the Wrangler and 4Runner are available with 4WD; however, there are some differences when it comes to performance.
The Jeep Wrangler is available with four engine options to choose from. The classic 3.6L V6 engine generates up to an impressive 285 horsepower. This powertrain is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission to give you full control of shifting, leaving you a personalized drive every time. If you need more power, the Wrangler Rubicon has a 6.4L HEMI®V8 engine available to take on the toughest terrain generating up to 470 HP.
The Toyota 4Runner offers only one engine across its trim level lineup, a V6 that falls short in terms of horsepower, only producing 270 HP.
No one likes making an extra trip to fill up the tank. Luckily, both SUVs present decent fuel economy figures, allowing you to stop at the gas station less frequently. Although, one of these models might have you stopping a little more.
The 4Runner has an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency of 16 city/19 highway MPG, which enables you to drive farther on a tank of gas.
Even with the higher horsepower, though, the Wrangler comes out on top, offering a better overall estimated fuel economy. With an EPA-estimated 17 city/23 highway MPG, you will surely get more bang for your buck, especially if you drive on the highway a lot.
Though performance and efficiency are crucial, having a stylish vehicle is also important. These two models take the cake on the streets, offering a suitable design for an array of drivers—but which one is right for you?
The 2023 Wrangler comes in both a two-door and -door model, allowing you to choose a trim that meshes well with your style.

The Wrangler allows you to do so easily.
The Toyota 4Runner keeps things traditional with the classic SUV appearance. However, this model does not have a -door option, leaving you with only one body choice. The doors and roof can also not be detached, however, the 4Runner does make a power moonroof available, for a slightly immersive experience.
