This information came from a press release through my Toyota dealer. I assume it is accurate based on its origin, but who knows. Thought it might peak some interest from some who have chosen to wait out the 2017 model year.

The 2017 Toyota 4Runner has been redesigned with a sharp, sleek exterior that can’t go by unnoticed. It’s still as practical and comfortable as ever on the inside. With a 4.0-liter V6 engine that is operated by a 6-speed automatic transmission, the 2017 4Runner produces a hefty 270 horsepower and 278lb-ft of torque. It gets *17 mpg in the city and 22 on the highway. The 4Runner comes standard with FWD or AWD.

Some of the most major changes to the 4Runner have taken place on the inside. A 6.1-inch infotainment system has been installed and made standard on the LE, SE, and XLE trims, but limited models receive a 7.0-inch unit. The Entune system, which enables your smartphone to connect to the head unit, has been integrated along with Bluetooth connectivity, eight-way power driver’s seat, Siri Eyes Free,which enables voice control of an iOS mobile device that is linked to a car’s in-dash audio system, and a rearview camera, just to name a few.

The interior cabin design is consistent with the 4Runner‘s reputation of being stylish and spacious. User-friendly knobs and buttons are draped throughout, and the front seats are power adjustable and provide comfortable support.

Sounds like a mistake and was supposed to say Highlander...Not 4Runner

Some of the info seems correct, engine size, etc, but others, like the trim levels seem wrong. I did find the 6 speed transmission a surprise.

I guess we'll have to wait and see what actually hits the lots in January!

What about this:

This is for the Highlander, not the 4Runner. Unfortunately most dealers don't know much of anything especially not at the lower levels.

When have you seen a 4Runner LE/SE/XLE? Or a Front wheel drive variant for that matter... It's been confirmed already that the 17 has no major changes. Read up from Toyota directly - and confirmed since July at the FJ Summit.

Hawk. If I may suggest: delete your OP, which will kill the thread, which is based on poop.

EDIT: I LOL'd when I read this:
