How does the 2021 Toyota 4Runner compare to the 2021 Ford Bronco?

If you’re looking for an off-road-ready SUV to find adventures off the pavement, there are certainly a ton of options available to you. However, the standouts are definitely the new 2021 Toyota 4Runner and the 2021 Ford Bronco. Both are certainly capable of taking you off the beaten path, but how do they compare, and which one is better for your drivetime across the board? Our Clermont Toyota dealership is breaking down the similarities and differences to make your car shopping experience as easy as possible.

The 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro

If you want a vehicle that’s ready for anything off-road, the iconic Toyota 4Runner is a solid bet. It’s been a fan favorite for decades because of its reliability, performance capabilities, and truck-like handling. Here are some of the things to keep in mind when considering this Clermont Toyota:

• The 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro has a starting MSRP of $51,290, but it’s packed with performance features and ready to hit the trails. You won’t need to add anything on to take on the unpaved. You’ll also get top technology and tons of sleek interior features.
• It offers a 4.0L V6 engine under the hood that brings 270 horsepower to the table, as well as dedicated off-road suspension and 10″ of ground clearance for major off-road capabilities.
• It has a narrow body and is slightly longer than the 2021 Ford Bronco both in wheelbase and overall length. It also has body-on-frame construction, which means it handles more like a truck than a car (something that’s becoming more and more uncommon in SUVs these days).

The 2021 Ford Bronco

What about the up-and-coming 2021 Ford Bronco? There’s been a lot of hype surrounding this vehicle as it was once retired and has now been redesigned and reintroduced to the market, to the glee of Ford fans. Here are some basics:

• It has a starting MSRP of $29,995, but that’s for the base level. If you want it to be loaded with tech and performance features like the Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro, it’s going to take a pretty steep jump in price.
• The new Ford Bronco also drives like a truck, making it off-road ready. However, drivers have noted that while it’s stellar off the pavement, it lacks a certain level of refinement for everyday driving on it.
• Two engines are up for grabs in this new SUV. You can choose between a 2.3L turbocharged 4-cylinder EcoBoost and a 2.7L twin-turbo V6 EcoBoost. They offer 275 horsepower and 310 horsepower, respectively.

Which one will you drive home?

So which one is better suited for your daily drive time? Both the 2021 Toyota 4Runner and the 2021 Ford Bronco seat five; they also have similar fuel efficiency, as well as similar width and height, and they’re both ready for anything off the pavement.

We will say, however, that Toyota has a clear advantage when it comes to reliability and resale value. It’s renowned for both on a global level, meaning if you want a reliable ride that’ll give you more bang for your buck down the road, you’re in the right place at Toyota of Clermont.
