All these new Toyota's have same powertrain ?

I noticed that the Tacoma, Lexus RX & TX, Highlander, and now the new 4Runner will all have the same 2.4L Turbo powertrain and 8 speed auto transmission.
The new 4R will look just like the Tacoma inside besides having a enclosed SUV body. Ugly huge 14" TV set in middle of dash, I guess this is what people want now.
Guess I'll hang onto my outdated 2024 fifth gen 4R for awhile.

Toyota can't please everyone.

I made the choice to go with a new 2024 TRD Off Road just because of the past history of the vehicle. I personally don't think that the Gen 5 models will lose any value over its past history, the Gen 5 will always be a sot after vehicle. I feel the new Gen 6 TRD models will be pushing the $60,000 price range and could be higher, depending on dealer allotment and vehicle demand. Having one power train between models makes sense, if it proves to be a good one, problems with it could be big trouble for Toyota.

I too am glad I bought mine when I did!!
I think the turbocharged 4 banger is going to fall flat on its face in the towing aspect.
Also the 4.0 L 6cyl is 339 lbs heavier than the 4 cylinder so the 4x4 portion is going to suffer too.
