2024 Jeep Wrangler/2024 Toyota 4Runner Comparison
2024 Jeep Wrangler Compared to the 2024 Toyota 4Runner
How does the 2024 Jeep Wrangler compare to the 2024 Toyota 4Runner? If mid-Michigan drivers are looking for a reliable SUV that also has impeccable off-roading capability, the Jeep Wrangler outperforms the Toyota in numerous capacities. From its performance and standard 4x4 drivetrain to the even better fuel economy the Jeep boasts, the Wrangler makes navigating anywhere in the Great Lakes Bay Region more enjoyable than in the Toyota. The infotainment capabilities of the Jeep are also more impressive to allow for a modernized cruising experience that today’s families appreciate. As such, there are a variety of reasons why the Wrangler is a superb choice for a versatile everyday family cruiser in Central Michigan.
Performance
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Offers More Power Than the Toyota 4Runner
Standard 4x4 Drivetrain More Versatile Than the Standard RWD Platform for the 4Runner
There isn’t much of a comparison when determining whether the Jeep or the Toyota is the more exciting SUV to drive. Powered by a 3.6L V6 engine under its hood, the baseline 2024 Jeep Wrangler offers drivers 285 horsepower for enjoyable cruising across the Great Lakes Bay Region. Comparatively, the 4Runner is equipped with a 4.0L V6 engine that only offers 270 horsepower. The transmission in the Jeep can either be a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic, while the Toyota only has a five-speed automatic transmission. Every Jeep is also equipped with the dynamic 4x4 drivetrain as the standard platform for impeccable handling versatility, while the 4Runner comes with standard RWD. Even with more performance and 4WD handling, the Wrangler is also more efficient than the 4Runner.
Interior Features
Both SUVs Offer Spacious Interiors to Cater to the Comfort Needs of Occupants
The Infotainment Package in the Jeep is More Impressive Than in the Toyota
Being spacious SUVs, everyone in either vehicle has plenty of personal space to take advantage of. Another element of a successful modern SUV is the infotainment package that the vehicle comes with to meet the technological needs of every passenger. The Jeep starts off with an immediate advantage by boasting a massive 12.3-inch touchscreen display compared to the eight-inch display in the 4Runner. While both systems are equipped with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functionality for compatible devices, the Jeep allows for wireless connectivity to both. The Jeep’s Uconnect® 5 system also comes with integrated navigation as part of its expansive array of amenities.
Safety Features
4x4 Drivetrain Makes Safely Navigating Mid-Michigan Easier Than with the RWD 4Runner
Both Vehicles Offer a Variety of Driver-Assistance Technology
While both family cruisers are equipped with modern driver-assistance technology to help cater to the busy city traffic all mid-Michiganders must contend with, the Jeep comes with a significant advantage when it comes to being a capable all-season vehicle. The SUV is equipped with a standard 4x4 drivetrain that inspires pure confidence no matter what the weather or the roads are like in the Great Lakes Bay Region. This includes when taking the SUV out for an off-roading excursion. Meanwhile, the standard RWD platform of the Toyota 4Runner lacks the capability of being a prime choice for when winters in mid-Michigan arrive. Available AWD will cost more money for the already more expensive family cruiser.
