If you're considering a new SUV to tackle the roads-and off-roads-of the Streamwood and Elgin area, the new Jeep Wrangler and Toyota 4Runner should be at the top of your list. Both vehicles offer impressive specs and features, but only one of these rugged yet refined SUVs can claim that coveted spot in your driveway-which will it be? To help you decide, the Elgin CDJR team compares the 2023 Jeep Wrangler vs. Toyota 4Runner below.

4Runner or Wrangler? - Starting Price

The base-level Wrangler Sport 2-door configuration is priced nearly $9,000 less than the base 4Runner trim. Here is a quick comparison of the Jeep Wrangler vs. Toyota 4Runner starting MSRPs:

  • 2023 Jeep Wrangler - $31,195
  • 2023 Toyota 4Runner - $40,155

4Runner or Wrangler? - Engine Specs

As far as performance, the Wrangler outshines the 4Runner in some key ways. First, the Wrangler gives you a choice of four robust engine options, as well as a hybrid drivetrain that delivers exceptional fuel economy on Bartlett roads and beyond. The 4Runner only provides one engine option. Also, the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon model boasts a 6.4L HEMI® V8 engine that delivers far more raw power than the 4.0L V6 of the 4Runner. Take a look at the maximum horsepower and torque of the Jeep Wrangler vs. Toyota 4Runner:
