Toyota’s simple, effective approach to the 4Runner’s hardware and cabin controls also supports confidence in day-to-day use. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that age-related wear may matter more than mileage alone, especially if the vehicle has seen hard use.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota 4Runner?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The 40th Anniversary Special Edition adds retro styling touches, bronze accents, and a numbered plaque, but it is based on the SR5 trim level and keeps the same purposeful, truck-like character. The base trims are more straightforward, while the higher trims add more specialised equipment and a more distinctive look.
• Powertrain: Every 2023 4Runner uses a 4.0-litre V6 with a five-speed automatic and standard 4WD. The Limited uses a full-time 4WD system, while other versions use part-time 4WD.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense includes forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and automatic high-beam headlights. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are standard on every trim level.
• Infotainment: The biggest touchscreen is 8 inches, and the system includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Navigation, additional connected services, and a JBL premium sound system are available.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada rates it at 13.8 litres per 100 kilometres in combined driving, and the test vehicle averaged 13.9 L/100 km.

Which 2023 Toyota 4Runner trim should I buy?

The 2023 Toyota 4Runner is offered in 6 trim levels: SR5, TRD Sport, Limited, 40th Anniversary Special Edition, TRD Off-Road, and TRD Pro.

Here's the short version:

• SR5: This is the starting point and the basis for the 40th Anniversary Special Edition, so it gives you the core 4Runner experience without the extra styling or specialised hardware. It makes sense if you want the most straightforward entry into the lineup.
• TRD Sport: This trim adds a suspension tuned to improve on-road athleticism, so it suits you if you spend more time on pavement but still want the 4Runner’s rugged format.
• Limited: This version adds a suspension tuned for on-road athleticism and a full-time 4WD system, making it the most road-friendly choice in the lineup.
• 40th Anniversary Special Edition: This is the best-value pick if you want the most distinctive appearance, with retro stripes, bronze wheels, bronze badges, bronze stitching, and a numbered plaque. It is limited to black, white, or red paint with a black artificial leather interior.
• TRD Off-Road: This trim is the one to choose if you want more off-road capability, thanks to a suspension that improves wheel articulation by disconnecting the sway bars.
• TRD Pro: This is the most specialised off-road model, with a skid plate and a suspension tuned for high-speed performance in the dirt with front and rear Fox shock absorbers.

Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are standard on every trim level.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Toyota 4Runner?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you should shop carefully and compare listings before moving quickly.

• Deal availability: 28.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 112 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.59% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $54,889 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Toyota 4Runner's resale value?

The current average of $54,946 CAD sits slightly below last year's $60,110 CAD.

That softer pricing can help you buy more selectively today, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive market if values continue to ease. The year-round range still shows meaningful spread, so condition, trim, and equipment will matter when it comes time to resell.

Because the 4Runner has a loyal following and strong owner satisfaction, demand should remain relatively resilient compared with less distinctive SUVs. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.78/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Toyota 4Runner safe?

The 2023 Toyota 4Runner earns four-star ratings overall from NHTSA, with a three-star rating for front passenger protection in a frontal-impact collision and a three-star rating for rollover resistance. The IIHS gives it a Marginal rating for driver protection in the small overlap frontal-impact test.

It earns a 3/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense includes forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and automatic high-beam headlights. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are standard on every trim level.

The main caveat is that its crash-test results lag behind newer rivals, especially for a vehicle with this ride height and off-road focus. If safety is a top priority, you should weigh that carefully against the 4Runner’s strengths elsewhere.

Should I buy a 2023 Toyota 4Runner or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 28.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.59% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.78/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds standard blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert across the lineup.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $49,858 CAD, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $54,946 CAD average.
• It keeps the rugged, old-school SUV character while staying relevant with modern infotainment and safety tech.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $55,939 CAD, the 2024 costs more than the current year's $54,946 CAD average.
• It adds a strong reputation for reliability and durability, with more emphasis on all-terrain capability.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of current pricing, owner satisfaction, and standard safety equipment, the 2023 is the primary year to target. If your budget is tighter, the 2022 is the better value play; if you want to spend more for the next model year, the 2024 is the alternative to compare.
