- [Announcer] The 2022 Toyota 4Runner
versus the 2022 Ford Bronco.
Let's learn a bit more about these capable, off-road SUVs.
A Toyota lineup mainstay for nearly 40 years,
4Runner has carved out its place as a flagship SUV
for off-road adventures,
thanks in part to its body-on-frame construction.
New for 2022, the road-tuned TRD Sport grade
joins the trail-oriented TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro.
4Runner comes prepared for adventure thanks
to available advanced off-road features
like Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control,
and an electronic locking rear differential.
4Runner is available in eight grades,
which includes four TRD grades and a Trail Special Edition.
Best of all, there's either part-time
or full-time four-wheel drive on every grade,
making adventure just a flip of a switch away.
The 2022 Ford Bronco is also offered in eight grades,
which represent varying degrees of off-road capability.
This means that all grades are equipped
with standard four-wheel drive.
Across the lineup,
each 4Runner is built for sturdy handling
as well as visibility in a wide range of terrains,
and that starts with standard LED headlights and fog lights.
Meanwhile, Trail Special Edition comes standard
with a Yakima cargo basket for oversized gear.
And getting in and out is easy too,
thanks to the standard Smart Key System
that automatically locks
and unlocks the vehicle
without having to reach for the key fob.
And for that extra touch of style,
there are 20-inch wheels available.
The 2022 Bronco also covers a lot of bases,
since it comes with available features
like keyless entry and LED fog lights,
and emergency exit lighting,
but its wheels top out at just 18 inches.
Once inside, 4Runner offers a generous 89.7 cubic feet
of cargo volume with the seats down.
And thanks to great utility features
like an available sliding rear deck
and a power rear liftgate window,
this spacious area is designed to be used.
4Runner even has available third-row seating,
so you can bring everyone along for the ride.
When it comes to space inside,
the 2022 Bronco responds with up to 83 cubic feet
of max cargo volume
when the seats are folded down on the 4-door grades.
But while there are available utility features
like a rear flip-up window,
there's no third-row seating or power rear liftgate window.
When it comes to advanced technology,
4Runner is absolutely packed.
Its standard 8-inch touchscreen features compatibility
for Apple CarPlay, which connects drivers to Apple Music,
Maps, Messages, and other favorite apps from your iPhone.
In addition, Android Auto compatibility makes it easy
to stay connected to Android devices,
while Amazon Alexa connectivity
keeps Amazon's voice service just a question away.
Plus, there's a standard 3-month SiriusXM
Platinum Plan trial subscription
that includes over 165 channels available in-cabin,
and even more on the SXM mobile app,
making it easier than ever to enjoy not just ad-free music,
but also sports, comedy, and more.
4Runner also comes with trial subscriptions
to Toyota's line of Connected Services,
including a Wi-Fi Connect hotspot for up to five devices.
Bronco is offered with a standard 8-inch touchscreen,
and a 12-inch touchscreen is available.
Either system offers wireless compatibility
with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto,
as well as Amazon Alexa availability.
Like 4Runner, a 3-month SiriusXM trial subscription
is included.
For all of its robust features,
4Runner is also packed with the type of safety
that helps drivers travel with confidence.
One great example is how Toyota Safety Sense P suite
of active safety technologies comes standard on all grades.
Other great safety features
include a standard Star Safety System
with Vehicle Stability Control
and an available Blind Spot Monitor
with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert that's new for 2022.
Bronco does offer Ford Co-Pilot360 Technology
Ford's active safety suite, but unlike 4Runner,
it doesn't include standard Adaptive Cruise Control.
Striking a balance between everyday drivability
and serious off-road capability is what 4Runner does best.
Multi-terrain Select and Crawl Control off-road systems
on select four-wheel drive grades
help tackle challenging road conditions
by automatically adjusting the engine throttle
and braking pressure,
while an available locking rear differential
helps retain traction.
Similarly, 4Runner's available full-time
four-wheel-drive system features
a Torsen limited-slip center differential
to help manage power distribution from front to rear.
Its advanced available suspension systems
like X-REAS Sport Enhancement Suspension
and Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System are designed
to adjust suspension behavior depending on the road surface.
Meanwhile, 4Runner TRD Pro's TRD Fox high-performance
shocks help get past the toughest terrain.
Plus, it achieves all this
while offering a great capacity to haul gear,
with its 5,000-lb. tow rating across all grades
and standard equipment
like a towing receiver hitch and wiring harness.
Finally, 4Runner comes with mud-and-snow tires
with standard 17-inch or available 20-inch wheels
to help firmly grip the road.
Bronco answers with off-road-friendly features
like available advanced four-by-four
with automatic on-demand engagement
and electronic-locking front and rear axles.
There's also an available HOSS 4.0 System
with a Fox suspension and available mud tires.
Finally, the 2022 Ford Bronco
has a tow rating of 3,500 pounds,
with the exception of 4,500 pounds
just for the Raptor grade.
Toyota 4Runner has been named
to KBB's Top 10 Best Resale Value list
in eight out of the past nine years,
proof of its tremendous value.
And every 4Runner comes with ToyotaCare,
plus Roadside Assistance for two years and unlimited miles.
Bronco's value shows through in a variety of ways too;
in fact, it's been given a Five-Year Cost
to Own Award from Kelley Blue Book.
There's also a three-year or 36,000 miles basic warranty
and five-years or 60,000 miles,
whichever comes first, of roadside assistance.
With stand-out performance features
and a mix of both off-road capability
and on-road livability,
it's clear why 4Runner leads the pack.
