2020 Toyota 4Runner Trim Comparison: SR5 Premium vs TRD Off-Road

The Toyota 4Runner is known for being a rugged, capable off-roader. However, this capability depends largely on which trim you get. For instance, some 4Runners come standard with 2WD while other come with 4WD. And that’s not all that differs.

So, what’s the difference between the trim levels? That’s exactly what we want to know. We looked at two popular 4Runner trims—the SR5 Premium and the TRD Off-Road—and found quite a few differences in features between the two. Take a look.

SR5 Premium Features

The SR5 Premium starts at $39,215. Standard features include SofTex synthetic leather upholstery, heated front seats, power adjustable front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a universal garage door opener, and integrated navigation. The SR5 Premium comes with 2WD but can be upgraded to 4WD

TRD Off-Road Features

The TRD Off-Road starts at $39,740. It doesn’t receive the features of the SR5 Premium, but rather that of the base model SR5. However, its off-road capabilities far exceed that of the SR5 Premium. The TRD Off-Road has standard 4WD, a locking rear differential, Multi-Terrain Select drive mode selector, and crawl control.
