2024 Toyota 4Runner Towing Capacity
Towing capacity for every 2024 Toyota 4Runner trim, sourced from Toyota's official 2024 towing guide. Select your trim below to see exact specs.
The 2024 4Runner is the final year of the fifth generation, and its towing specifications are identical to the 2023. Every trim tows 5,000 lbs, the same 4.0L V6 powers all configurations, and the GCWR holds at 11,300 lbs across the board. If you are comparing a 2023 and 2024 side by side for towing purposes, there is no difference.
This is worth knowing if you are shopping the used market. A 2023 or 2024 4Runner will tow the same load at the same ratings, so the decision between them comes down to pricing, mileage, and cosmetic preferences rather than capability. The payload breakdown remains the same: 1,700 lbs for the lighter trims (SR5, TRD Sport, SR5 Premium) and 1,550 lbs for the heavier off-road trims (TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro).
The 2024 is the last 4Runner with the naturally aspirated V6 and the last with a traditional five-speed automatic transmission. The 2025 model brings a completely new powertrain and platform, so the 2024 represents the end of an era for 4Runner enthusiasts who prefer the proven older setup.
