Trim Level Comparison Analysis

The TRD name is often one of the most popular trim options among Toyota buyers. The TRD Off-Road Premium trim has already proved its popularity and will probably continue to be one of the most successful variants not only on the TRD line, but also the 4Runner as a whole. With four trims above it and four below it, the TRD Off-Road Premium is the middle trim, which may also contribute to its success. If off-road capability and performance driving aren’t your thing, there are still models like the Limited for luxury lovers, the Nightshade Special Edition for those who prize its aesthetic appeal. The Venture and Trail Special Editions don’t go all-out with capability, but they can provide weekend campers and occasional adventurers with useful features and equipment.
