Is 2014 4Runner a 6th gen?

Spokesperson for Cars.com gives review of 2014 "6th Generation" 4Runner. True? Or is it really still a 5th gen?

Still a 5th gen. The auto industry calls minor changes like this a "mid-cycle refresh."

5.5.

And really the 5th gen recycles lots of parts from the 4th gen.

More like a "thoroughly face-lifted" 5th gen. Great example could be 2010 vs 2013 mercedes c63 or c300

Gen 5.2 -The ReDrop, Disc 5, Version 4, Extended mix 6A I think is the exact terminology for the 2014 Runners.

I just got my new Motor Trend magazine. On the cover in big letters was "SUV of the Year". The 4runner was not even in the completion. I guess they thought it was basically the same as the 2013 and did not even consider it. The 2014 Subaru Forester won the completion but I have not read the complete article yet.

Motor Trend. Wow. I need to go tell my brother that the car he hated above all cars he's ever had, which he just dumped, is the SUV of the year. He'll get a kick out of that.

The 2014 Forester is completely new redesign. I never drove a Subaru so I have no idea what they are like.
