Intriguing Performance Options
When you get a Bronco, you get a powerful vehicle with a plethora of performance options-that much is true. The Toyota 4Runner, as well, comes with its own set of intriguing performance options, such as a 4.0L V6 engine that puts out 270 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque atop its 17-inch alloy wheels.
The Bronco, however, bucks the 4Runner off its back with its projected numbers. Sitting atop 30-inch all-season tires, the Bronco’s available 2.7L EcoBoost® engine will put out a best-in-class 310 horsepower with 400 lb-ft of torque. That’s impressive power.
The 4Runner does come with some features that allow it to handle off-roading, such as its Mud- and-Snow treaded tires and locking rear differential. However, the Bronco takes the cake with its 7-speed manual transmission (6+1 Crawler Gear) and Terrain Management System™ designed to adjust the vehicle’s driving dynamics for the type of terrain you’re driving on.
Additionally, the Ford Bronco offers available removable doors and tops to get you feeling closer to the road and upgraded bash plates in the front for when you get too close to the road (or rocks, mud, or sand). The Toyota 4Runner does have its upsides, that’s for sure, but we believe the Bronco takes first place when it comes to performance.
Ford Bronco vs Toyota 4Runner: Technology
The Bronco and the 4Runner both come equipped with an impressive array of technology to make your driving experience as interactive and enjoyable as possible. To fuel your adventures, the Toyota 4Runner comes with an available 15-speaker JBL® audio system and 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay® compatibility.
The Ford Bronco offers SYNC®4, Ford’s newest and most impressive entertainment and communication system. Available with up to a 12-inch touchscreen with a powerful processor and adaptive capabilities, it will bring high levels of intelligence to match the high levels of power the Bronco puts out.
Ford Bronco vs Toyota 4Runner: Interior Features
To complement the technology in the Bronco vs. 4Runner debate, each vehicle offers its own unique and comfortable cabin. However, the comfort and style of the Ford Bronco’s cabin is quite a thing to behold.
Fitting to the name, the Bronco comes with a gorgeous optional leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear shift knob, along with available leather-trimmed seating that is both comfortable and durable.
Should You Choose the Ford Bronco or the Toyota 4Runner?
Both vehicles offer some very enticing options, but unfortunately, one vehicle must be the runner-up. We believe when it comes to the Ford Bronco vs. Toyota 4Runner, the Bronco will edge out the competition. It is, after all, the Bronco.
