So I get this question a lot on my YouTube about the new 6th Gen 4Runner vs the out going 5th Gen 4Runner. People are curious if the middle seats of the new 6th Gen are smaller than the 5th Gen. Now unfortunately official interior dimensions aren’t out yet on the new 4R, but I can say as a full sized adult, 5’ 11” and 190 lbs, I was able to comfortably sit behind my front seating position in this vehicle.

I did a little more digging and looking up the new LC250 rear seat dimensions and comepared them to the 5th Gen 4R to get an idea for the new 6th Gen since it and the LC are so similar. I was shocked, so much so that I’m curious if Toyota made an error when giving us interior dimensions. They state that the LC has 6” less leg room and 2” less head room. That doesn’t make sense cuz the GX550 which is similar to the LC has 4” more leg room than the 5th Gen 4Runner and also more head space.

Needless to say, the 4R is still decently spacious and it has significantly more space than the 4th Gen Tacoma’s rear seats.

The back seat looks smaller that my 5th get in the videos that I have watched. This is one of the big wait and see things before I pull the trigger. My teenage daughter is growing like a weed so we need some good legroom back there.
 
So does it seem like there’s less head room with the sun roof? Also with you seated there in the picture was the driver seat set all the way back or was the seat adjusted to allow you to sit without bumping your knees @TRD JON ?

The seat I don't recall being all of the way back, but it was back a bit.
