How Much Do The 2025 Toyota 4Runner Trims Cost?

2025 Toyota 4Runner Trim Costs: Compare and Discover Savings

With an impressive lineup of trims and optional packages, it's easy to customize the perfect 2025 Toyota 4Runner to fit your needs. The challenge? Deciding which one of this year's many trims deserves a spot in your driveway. That's why our team at Longo Toyota has put together this helpful 2025 Toyota 4Runner trim and cost comparison guide. Read on to discover trim-specific features and learn all about the evolution of the 4Runner. 

What's New in the 2025 Model

Built on Toyota's advanced TNGA-F platform, the sixth-generation 4Runner introduces a turbocharged 2.4-liter engine that delivers 278 horsepower as standard. For even more power and fuel efficiency, the new i-FORCE MAX hybrid option generates an impressive 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. 

Tech also gets a nice upgrade on the new 4Runner. A 14-inch infotainment touch screen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 now come standard. Drivers will also enjoy quieter off-road performance with an upgraded CRAWL Control function, available in both 4-High and 4-Low modes. With plenty of Toyota 4Runner trim packages to choose from this year, it's worth highlighting the all-new Trailhunter trim, which comes outfitted with rugged features including a factory-installed lift kit, underbody protection, and exclusive Trailhunter badging. 

The Evolution of the 4Runner

Since its debut in 1984, the Toyota 4Runner has earned and maintained its reputation as a rugged and reliable SUV. Here's an overview of how the 4Runner has evolved over the years:

  • First generation (1984-1989): Tailored for off-road enthusiasts, the first edition featured a removable fiberglass top and utilitarian design.
  • Second generation (1990-1995): This generation introduced a one-piece top and a fully furnished cabin, as well as a coil-sprung rear suspension for a smoother ride. 
  • Third generation (1996-2002): Toyota added coil springs on all four corners with the third generation. This generation 4Runner also received upgraded powertrains, including a 3.4-liter V-6. 
  • Fourth generation (2003-2009): The fourth generation retained its body-on-frame construction and solid rear axle, but it also introduced a coil-sprung, double-wishbone front suspension and a 4.7-liter V-8.
  • Fifth generation (2010-2023): This version introduced the TRD Pro package for improved off-road performance and features Toyota Safety Sense-P.

2026 Toyota bZ Price Guide: Cost by Trim, from XLE to Limited

If you're wondering how much the 2026 Toyota bZ costs, pricing starts at $36,350 and tops out at $46,750 depending on trim and drivetrain. That's a wider spread than you'd expect from an EV lineup, and it comes down to battery size, horsepower, and whether you go FWD or AWD. We've broken down every trim below so you know exactly what you're paying for before you set foot on our lot in El Monte. If you want to get the paperwork moving early, you can also get pre-qualified before your test drive. 2026 Toyota bZ Pricing Overview Toyota folded the $1,450 destination fee directly into the MSRP for 2026, so the numbers below reflect what actually shows up on the window sticker. The 2026 Toyota bZ price shifts quite a bit by trim and drivetrain, and this table lays out the full picture. Trim Drivetrain Range Horsepower Battery Starting Price XLE FWD 236 mi 221 hp 57.7 kWh $36,350 XLE Plus FWD 314 mi 221 hp 74.7 kWh $39,350 XLE AWD 288 mi 338 hp 74.7 kWh $41,350 Limited FWD 299 mi 221 hp 74.7 kWh $44,750 Limited AWD 278 mi 338 hp 74.7 kWh $46,750 The base XLE dropped $2,170 compared to the outgoing model, while the Limited crept up $1,500. Every 2026 Toyota bZ trim carries the same coverage: a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty, a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, and an 8-year/100,000-mile battery warranty. That makes side-by-side comparisons easier since coverage never changes by trim. 2026 Toyota bZ XLE: Price and Standard Features The XLE starts at $36,350 and sits at the entry point into the lineup. It runs the smallest battery in the family at 57.7 kWh, delivering 236 miles of EPA-estimated range, plenty for most Southern California commutes without daily charging stops. The XLE still comes loaded with useful gear. Standard equipment includes blind-spot monitoring, dual wireless phone chargers, a 14-inch touchscreen, heated front seats, SofTex seating surfaces, and 18-inch wheels. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 comes standard across every trim, so you're not paying extra for core safety tech just because you picked the base model. For El Monte commuters who mostly stick to local highways and surface streets, this trim covers the basics well. 2026 Toyota bZ XLE Plus: Price and Added Value Step up to the XLE Plus and you're looking at roughly $39,350, about $3,000 more than the base XLE. That extra money buys a significantly larger 74.7-kWh battery pack and stretches range to 314 miles, the longest in the entire lineup. The XLE Plus keeps the same 221 hp as the base XLE, since both are FWD-only at this tier, but the range jump alone makes this trim worth a look if you do a lot of freeway driving between Southern California cities. Edmunds calls FWD the smarter pick for range-focused buyers, and real-world testing on a similarly configured model recorded 331 miles, beating the EPA estimate. 2026 Toyota bZ Limited: Price and Premium Features The Limited starts at $44,750 for FWD and jumps to $46,750 with AWD, making the AWD Limited the priciest configuration in the lineup. That premium buys a genuine step up in comfort and tech. The Limited adds ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a Panoramic View Monitor for parking, a digital rearview mirror, Advanced Park for hands-free parking assistance, and a panoramic glass roof with a power sunshade. Wheels grow to 20 inches, and you can option a 9-speaker JBL Premium Audio system. Digital key functionality, meanwhile, is available across the entire bZ lineup, not just the Limited, and requires an active Remote Connect subscription. This is where the XLE vs. Limited comparison gets interesting, since the Limited trades some range for luxury amenities you'd expect on a vehicle costing several thousand more. FWD vs. AWD: How Drivetrain Affects Price by Trim AWD carries a $2,000 upcharge over the equivalent FWD configuration with the same 74.7 kWh battery. On the Limited, that's the difference between $44,750 (FWD) and $46,750 (AWD). On the XLE, the true AWD-only upcharge is best measured against the XLE Plus FWD at $39,350, which shares AWD's 74.7 kWh battery: stepping up from the base XLE FWD's smaller 57.7 kWh battery to XLE AWD costs $5,000 total, since that jump adds both the larger battery and the AWD hardware. That money buys a jump from 221 hp to 338 combined horsepower, plus quicker acceleration, 0 to 60 mph in about 4.9 seconds on the AWD XLE. The trade-off is that AWD range drops compared to FWD versions with the same battery, since AWD models add a rear motor and X-MODE for low-traction situations, both of which draw more energy. What Impacts Your Final Price The sticker price is just the starting point. A few other factors shape what you'll actually pay, worth understanding before you sit down at the negotiating table. Destination Fees and Optional Packages Toyota has already folded the $1,450 destination fee into the advertised MSRP for 2026, which simplifies things compared to previous years. Optional packages still add on top, though. A Panoramic Roof Package is available on the XLE, while Limited buyers can add the 9-Speaker JBL Premium Audio Package. Other options across the lineup include all-weather floor liners, carpet mats, and a Preferred Accessory Package, all of which push the final price above the base trim figure. Federal EV Tax Credit and Available Incentives The $7,500 federal new-EV tax credit ended for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025, under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, so don't build your budget around it. That means there's currently no point-of-sale federal discount applying to the 2026 Toyota bZ. This is a meaningful shift from how EV shopping worked just a year ago, and it's worth factoring into your budget from the start. Toyota has also reported its own promotional programs, such as a lease around $379 per month for 36 months with $3,749 due at signing, or 0% APR for 72 months paired with a cash incentive; these offers change monthly, so confirm current terms before assuming a rate. We'd recommend confirming current offers and eligibility directly with our team before assuming any specific savings apply to your purchase. Financing vs. Leasing: What It Means for Your Monthly Payment Monthly payments don't scale evenly with sticker price, and the gap between two trims on paper often narrows or widens once term length and residual value enter the picture. That's especially true with leasing, which is built around projected resale value rather than purchase price, so the least expensive trim to buy isn't automatically the least expensive to lease. Financing works the other way: you're paying toward ownership, which suits drivers keeping the car long-term, and the 8-year/100,000-mile battery coverage outlasts a typical loan by a comfortable margin. Leasing tends to mean a lower payment and the option to move into a newer model every few years, which appeals to drivers who'd rather stay current as EV tech keeps moving. Rates and residuals reset regularly, so the practical step is running real numbers on the trim and drivetrain you're weighing. Which 2026 bZ Trim Is Right for You Picking the right trim depends on your priorities. If you're a budget-conscious commuter mostly driving around El Monte and nearby communities, the base XLE at $36,350 covers your needs without unnecessary extras. If long-range driving matters most, the XLE Plus FWD's 314-mile range is the longest in the lineup and worth the roughly $3,000 premium over base. Buyers who want luxury touches and the latest tech should look at the Limited, with its ventilated seats, Panoramic View Monitor, and Advanced Park. And if you drive in varied weather or want extra confidence in wet or slick conditions, the AWD XLE at $41,350 hits a strong price-to-content balance, delivering 338 hp and all-wheel traction without stepping all the way up to Limited pricing. KBB pegs this trim as the lineup's sweet spot, and it's easy to see why.

Toyota Corolla

Corolla vs. Corolla Cross: Which Toyota Fits Your Lifestyle?

Picking between two vehicles from the same brand can feel oddly complicated, especially when they share a name but exist for completely different reasons. The Toyota Corolla and Toyota Corolla Cross fall into exactly that trap. Both carry Toyota's reputation for reliability, but they're built for different kinds of drivers. Below, we break down what actually separates them so you can browse our new Corolla and Corolla Cross inventory with a clear idea of which one fits your life. Corolla vs. Corolla Cross: Two Toyotas, Two Different Driving Experiences The Corolla has become one of the best-selling cars in history because it nails the basics daily drivers actually care about: dependable transportation, solid fuel economy, and a smooth ride. The Corolla Cross takes a different route. Toyota engineered it with an SUV-style silhouette and a raised driving position for drivers who want more versatility without committing to a full-size SUV like the RAV4. Sit in either one and the difference is obvious, even with that shared name on the trunk. What Is the Difference Between the Corolla and Corolla Cross? Body style is where the split starts. The Corolla is a compact sedan built for efficiency and agility, while the Corolla Cross is a subcompact SUV built for utility and space, sitting a step below the RAV4 in Toyota's SUV lineup. That one distinction ripples out into how each vehicle handles and how much you can actually fit inside it. Both share a similar powertrain foundation, but the purpose each one was designed for shapes the ownership experience in noticeable ways. Sedan vs. Compact SUV: Body Style and Design Philosophy The Corolla is built around aerodynamic efficiency and urban practicality. Its low profile cuts down on drag and helps keep fuel consumption in check, which matters when you're weaving through El Monte traffic or racking up highway miles on a daily commute. The Corolla Cross takes a bolder, more upright stance instead. Its raised body and extra ride height hint that it can handle more than grocery runs, and you feel that difference the moment you're behind the wheel. Size, Ground Clearance, and Cargo Space Compared These two vehicles take up different amounts of space on the road, and that matters depending on what you plan to do with the car. The Corolla Cross offers more interior volume and higher ground clearance, a natural fit for weekend trips or anyone hauling gear regularly. The Corolla's smaller footprint makes tight spaces and dense urban parking far less of a hassle. Weighing space against compactness is one of the biggest calls you'll need to make here. Exterior Dimensions and Ride Height Feature 2026 Corolla 2026 Corolla Cross Max Length 182.5 in 176.1 in Max Width 70.1 in 71.9 in Max Height 56.5 in 64.9 in Max Ground Clearance 5.3 in 8.1 in The Corolla Cross sits 2.8 inches higher off the ground than the Corolla. That extra height isn't just for looks; it means more confidence over uneven roads, speed bumps, or the occasional mountain trip when Southern California weather turns wet. It also improves your sightlines in traffic. The Corolla sits lower to the ground by comparison, giving it a tighter, sportier feel that works in your favor if most of your driving happens in the city. Interior Space and Cargo Capacity Feature 2026 Corolla 2026 Corolla Cross Max Cargo Volume (behind rear seats) 13.1 cu ft 24.0 cu ft Max Cargo Volume (seats folded) Not available 46.9 cu ft Max Rear Leg Room 34.8 in 32.0 in Max Rear Head Room 37.1 in 39.0 in Both models seat five passengers without issue, but the Corolla Cross offers nearly double the cargo room behind the rear seats and almost 47 cu ft with them folded down. That extra space matters if you're regularly packing for road trips, hauling sports equipment, or shuttling a family with a lot of gear. The Corolla counters with more rear legroom, so if you're usually driving alone or with one passenger, the Corolla's cabin is still plenty comfortable without the added bulk. If cargo room and ride height top your list, the Corolla Cross wins out. If rear legroom and a smaller footprint matter more to you, stick with the Corolla. Pricing and Trim Levels: Which Toyota Fits Your Budget? Both the Corolla and Corolla Cross come in a range of trim levels, so you can pick features that actually match how you drive. Corolla trims move up in equipment and available features, including a hybrid powertrain that boosts fuel economy considerably. Corolla Cross trims add more available technology and, on select trims, available all-wheel drive for extra traction. Because pricing and offers change frequently, we'd rather point you to accurate, current numbers than list anything that could be outdated. Browse our new Corolla and Corolla Cross inventory to see trim-by-trim availability, or reach out through our contact page and our team will walk you through pricing and financing options. Driving Experience: Handling, Power, and Everyday Comfort How a car feels day to day often matters more than anything on a spec sheet. The Corolla and Corolla Cross are both refined and built for everyday usability, but they get there through different means. Both share a base engine producing 169 horsepower, and each is available as a hybrid, though the Corolla's hybrid system delivers up to 50 mpg combined (roughly 53 city / 46 highway on FWD trims), one of the strongest fuel economy figures in its class. Corolla: Nimble and Efficient on City Streets The Corolla is built for exactly the situations most daily drivers deal with. Its compact size and responsive steering make lane changes and tight turns feel almost effortless, and parking in crowded lots or squeezing down narrow El Monte streets is far less stressful than it would be in something bigger. If you're putting real miles on the car each week, the fuel savings add up fast. Corolla Cross: Confidence and Versatility for Weekend Trips The Corolla Cross offers a different kind of confidence on the road. Its higher center of gravity gives it more presence, and available all-wheel drive adds real traction when conditions turn rough. Whether you're heading into the mountains for the weekend or dealing with wet roads during a rare Southern California downpour, the Corolla Cross handles it without much fuss. It shifts easily between weekday commuting and weekend adventures. Which Toyota Fits Your Lifestyle? The right choice comes down to how you use your car day to day. Each one is built for a different kind of routine, so it's less about which is "better" and more about which matches how you actually live. Best for Commuters and City Drivers Daily freeway commute in and around El Monte. Frequent city driving with tight parking. Priority on fuel economy and low daily operating costs. Preference for a smaller, more agile footprint. If that sounds like you, the Corolla is the better call. It's efficient, easy to maneuver, and doesn't skimp on comfort for its size. Best for Drivers Wanting Extra Ground Clearance and Cargo Room Regular road trips or weekend getaways. Hauling outdoor gear or sports equipment. Driving through occasional rain or mountain roads. Preference for a higher seating position and more cargo space. If that's closer to your routine, the Corolla Cross makes more sense. It works well for families and active drivers who need to fit more into their car on a regular basis. Test Drive the Corolla and Corolla Cross at Longo Toyota Reading about the differences only takes you so far.

How Much Is the 2026 Toyota Corolla? Pricing by Trim Explained

If you're asking how much the 2026 Toyota Corolla costs, the short answer is it starts just above $23,125 and climbs from there depending on powertrain, trim, and body style. The 2026 Corolla lineup covers gas sedans, hybrid sedans, and a hatchback, each with its own trim ladder and price point. Below, we break down MSRP by trim so you know what you'd pay before browsing our new Corolla inventory at Longo Toyota. Actual pricing may vary with incentives, added equipment, or market adjustments, so treat these figures as a starting point rather than a locked-in number. 2026 Toyota Corolla Pricing at a Glance The core trims break down like this on price, powertrain, and efficiency: Trim Starting MSRP Powertrain Drivetrain Fuel Economy (EPA combined) Highlight LE (Sedan) $23,125 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 35 MPG Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 standard SE (Sedan) $25,565 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 34 MPG Sport-tuned suspension XSE (Sedan) $28,840 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 34 MPG Standard BSM and RCTA Hybrid LE $24,975 1.8L hybrid, 138 hp net FWD/AWD 50 MPG Best fuel economy in the lineup Hybrid SE $27,415 1.8L hybrid, 138 hp net FWD/AWD 47 MPG Sport styling + hybrid efficiency Hybrid XLE $29,340 1.8L hybrid, 138 hp net FWD 50 MPG SofTex® seats, 12.3-inch digital cluster Hatchback SE $24,580 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 35 MPG Sport-tuned suspension Hatchback FX $27,180 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 33 MPG Special-edition wheels, rear wing Hatchback XSE $27,575 2.0L 4-cyl, 169 hp FWD 33 MPG Moonroof, JBL audio Now let's look at what each trim actually gets you for the money. 2026 Toyota Corolla LE: The Value-Packed Starting Point The LE starts at $23,125, and it's where the 2026 Corolla story begins. As the entry-level trim, it covers the essentials without padding the price with extras most buyers won't use: a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine putting out 169 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque, a CVT, LED headlights, 16-inch steel wheels, fabric seats, and an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard here too, so every LE buyer gets a solid set of driver-assist features from day one. EPA estimates land at 32 city / 41 highway / 35 combined MPG, which keeps running costs low for daily commuters navigating El Monte traffic or longer Southern California freeway stretches. 2026 Toyota Corolla SE: Sporty Style for a Modest Upgrade The SE starts at approximately $25,565, a modest step up from the LE that brings real visual and dynamic upgrades. It runs the same 169-hp 2.0L engine but adds a sport-tuned suspension with a multi-link rear setup, 18-inch graphite alloy wheels, a sport grille, and sport fabric seats. EPA ratings dip slightly to 31 city / 40 highway / 34 combined MPG, a small trade-off for sharper handling. The SE tends to appeal to drivers who want their commute to feel a bit more engaging without jumping to a premium price point. 2026 Toyota Corolla XSE: Premium Features at the Top of the Lineup At the top of the gas sedan range, the XSE starts at $28,840. This trim brings a power moonroof, heated front seats, Qi wireless charging, a nine-speaker JBL audio system, and 18-inch wheels. It also comes with standard Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), which are now standard across all 2026 Corolla gas sedan grades. EPA estimates come in at 31 city / 38 highway / 34 combined MPG. The XSE works well for buyers who want the Corolla's proven reliability without settling for a bare-bones setup, especially if you're planning to keep the car for several years. 2026 Toyota Corolla Hybrid Trims and Pricing The hybrid trims change the math in a real way. You'll pay more upfront than the gas equivalents, but the fuel savings can close that gap faster than you'd expect, especially if you're putting a lot of miles on the car. All hybrid trims use Toyota's 1.8L hybrid powertrain (138 hp net) and come standard with an 8-inch touchscreen plus a 7-inch digital instrument cluster. Electronic On-Demand AWD is available on the Hybrid LE for an extra $1,450 and on the Hybrid SE for an extra $1,400. To put the fuel savings in perspective: at roughly 50 combined MPG versus 35 MPG for the gas LE, a driver covering 15,000 miles a year could burn hundreds fewer gallons of gas annually. Over time, that adds up to a meaningfully lower cost per mile, even after you factor in the higher sticker price. Hybrid LE The Hybrid LE starts at $24,975 and is the most accessible entry point into the Corolla Hybrid lineup. It pairs the standard hybrid powertrain with essential safety tech and delivers an EPA-estimated 53 city / 46 highway / 50 combined MPG in FWD configuration. Hybrid SE The Hybrid SE starts at approximately $27,415 and adds the same sporty styling touches found on the gas SE. FWD models are rated at 50 city / 43 highway / 47 combined MPG, while AWD versions come in slightly lower at 47 / 41 / 44. Hybrid XLE The Hybrid XLE starts at $29,340 and sits at the premium end of the hybrid range. It adds SofTex®-trimmed heated front seats, a power tilt/slide moonroof, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an 8-inch touchscreen, plus standard BSM and RCTA. FWD models return an EPA-estimated 53 city / 46 highway / 50 combined MPG. 2026 Corolla Hatchback: SE, FX, and XSE Pricing Overview The Corolla Hatchback is its own body style, sportier in profile with more usable cargo space. There's no hybrid or AWD option here, and all three trims share the same 169-hp 2.0L engine. The Hatchback SE starts at $24,580 and brings the same sport-tuned suspension found on the sedan SE. The FX is a limited/special edition with retro white-finished 18-inch alloy wheels and a rear wing, built for buyers who want something a little different. The Hatchback XSE starts at $27,575 and tops the range with a moonroof and JBL audio, matching its sedan counterpart's premium feel. If you need hatchback practicality without giving up the fun factor, this lineup is priced fairly for what it delivers. Beyond the Sticker Price: Fees, Taxes, and Add-Ons MSRP only tells part of the story when you're budgeting for a new Corolla. Toyota's $1,195 destination fee applies to every new vehicle and is usually folded into the advertised MSRP already. Beyond that, a few other cost categories come into play. California sales tax and registration fees vary by county and city, so it's worth confirming exact numbers with our team rather than going off a general estimate. Dealerships also typically charge a documentation fee to process paperwork, and it's fair to ask for that in writing before finalizing anything. Then there are optional extras: paint protection, extended warranties, accessories, dealer-installed packages. Some of these are genuinely worth it, others are easy to skip depending on what matters to you. If financing is part of your plan, our team can walk you through current rates and terms so you understand the full monthly payment, not just the vehicle price, before you sign anything. Which 2026 Corolla Trim Fits Your Budget? Choosing the right trim really comes down to matching your priorities against your budget. If you're watching costs closely, the LE gives you everything you need in a dependable, well-equipped sedan. If fuel efficiency is the priority, the Hybrid LE delivers the best mileage in the lineup, which matters most for daily commuters. Drivers who want a sportier feel can look at the SE sedan or hatchback, for styling and handling upgrades at a modest premium. For buyers chasing the most complete feature set, the XSE or the Hybrid XLE delivers the fullest experience right out of the gate. And if cargo flexibility matters more than trunk space, the Corolla Hatchback gives you that without sacrificing driving character. Think about how long you plan to keep the car, how many miles you rack up each year, and which features you'd actually miss if they weren't there. That combination usually points pretty clearly toward one trim over the rest.
