No - I was using USA Toyota as far as I know. If you check the "2025 4Runner Price Expectations" chart at the top of this site, it matches what I saw on the configurator. It lists TRD OR, TRD OR i-FORCE, & TRD ORP. No TRD ORP i-Force.

Thanks for clarification, but I don't understand why the Toyota configuration site doesn't offer that. Weird.

I hadn't realized until I was looking at the online Toyota configurator that the TRD ORP is not available with iForce Max. This is very disappointing. My preferred color is not offered with the TRD Pro, so I've been looking at the ORP with some mods, but also wanted the hybrid. Now it seems that...

Just be aware that the battery mount on the 4Runner fender cannot support the two heavy batteries without reinforcement. Genesis claims that it can, but my bracket ripped out of the sheet metal mount after some extended trips on rough roads. I hired a fabricator to make a reinforced mount, and...

I use the Genesis dual battery setup on my 2019 ORP; I love it. I use it to power a fridge in the back of the truck. Absolutely amazing performance. You can see an article about the setup here: https://trail4runner.com/2019/07/02/genesis-offroad-dual-battery-install/. Highly recommended.

1. Is the fuel tank really the same size in both gas and hybrid models? I had expected that the fuel tank would be smaller in the hybrid. If both have the same size tank, the driving range for a tank of gas in the hybrid should be greater. I haven't seen anything with projected driving ranges...

Anyone know whether Cutting Edge color is a silver metallic or silver non-metallic or just a light gray? Can't tell from pictures.

Looking a little further out, I wonder whether these dates will influence the release date for the 2026 models? I'm used to having new car models released late the previous calendar year (e.g., 2025 models released say Nov 2024), but with these 6th-gen delivery dates one could assume that the...

In terms of whether to purchase the 2025, isn't it considered prudent to not purchase a new generation of any vehicle in its first year on the market? I'm waiting for the second year of the 6th gen; I'll let others identify any issues during the first year. I had been planning to replace my 2019...

After some correspondence with Genesis Offroad, I've learned a few things that help answer my questions: There is no cranking battery per se in a hybrid, as explained in this post: https://6thgen4runner.com/threads/6th-gen-4runner-hybrid-start-up-battery-location.229/. The little battery in the...

I may be mistaken, but I suspect this is an auxiliary battery, not used for starting the vehicle. I think the High Voltage battery is used for engine starts, as explained here...

I have a Genesis Offroad dual-battery setup in my 2019 ORP and absolutely love it. As I contemplate replacing it with a 6th-gen, I'm wondering how one would run a refrigerator with one of the 6th-gen hybrids. There's certainly no room for anything extra in the engine compartment, based on...
