2010 4Runner/GX

[jasonNcharlotte]

Came across this today while looking for any info on the next generation 4runner.

They dont really know if its a 4runner or a Lexus GX, but its something to look at and let your imagination run wild

:bugeye: :wtf:

You can't tell what kind of car that is from those pics!

I love the 3-D taillights... I guess the body is still a work in progress.

Yea, that looks like a current 4 Runners chasis, interior and mufler (even though it's driver side mounted). Based on those pics, I'd say we get same chasis but redesigned interior and body. I just hope that body isn't boxy and slab-like ala new Highlander or Land Cruiser.

Woah, interesting.

Definitely a Toyota product, those center taillamps are from a Lexus GS. It's probably too early to have a finalized light design.

To me, it seems a little big to be the 4Runner replacement? Those 5-lug wheels are a little disappointing.

Can't be a 4-runner unless they're planning to do away with the power rear window (notice the wiper is mounted on the glass). Looks to me something landcruiser-sized or it could simply be a test-bed mash-up to try some new designs out.

It still has the same outside mirrors that the current one has.

1. No more liftgate power window?
2. 5-lug wheels. Probably cheaper that way.
3. The departure angle looks to suburban.
4. And it looks very low to the ground. What gives?
5. So is that a fake right side fuel door? I thought most fuel doors on Toyota/Lexus/Scion cars sold in NA are on the right.

There's no way that's a 4Runner without the power rear window. I guess it could be the next GX though...

 

[Fuzion]

seems more like the new gx

 

[keylay31]

I noticed:
1) The height to length ratio of the window seems off to be a 4R.
2) The exhaust is on the left side... (is there a reason they should change it?)
3) the interior has leather
4) The running boards look intense (most likely they just threw those on)
5) Antenna on the back for GPS?
6) Rear window wiper.

Deduction: Not T4R.

hmm.. if that's the new 4Runner.. I'm even MORE glad with my '08 purchase

Probably more of the GX than a 4runner. The back window does not roll down on the GX. Too early to tell, but for a GX, it looks a bit wider and maybe a bit shorter. Hopefully they'll restore some of the lines to the body (or maintain the current lines).

 

[JP4RNR]

I hope the side window in the back is not that tiny opening showing in the picture. I hope the window is larger than that and the tail lights look externally mounted or something definately not flush with the body

What the hell can you actually tell from those pics .

 

[RonMAIDEN]

And another step toward full soccer mom status and further from the unbeaten path or so we can hope not for the next 4Runner. :awais:

 

[Koz]

That is the Lexus. All that matters is will it have the 5.7?

Like my above statement says , you can't tell crap from those so called "spy shots "

The 5.7 is not needed in there , it would be fun though.

 

[jwyshrek]

a 5.0L with about 325-335hp would be nice though...or a nice 3.5L V6 turbo diesel with about 250-300hp and 400+ft-lb of torque...one can dream, eh?
