New images of Toyota's 2010 4Runner have leaked to the web.

As the pictures show, the 4Runner will adopt a boxier design that looks far more dramatic than the uninspired styling of the current model. The front end is dominated by an upright fascia, while the lengthened body promises to deliver additional interior room.

While details are scarce, the 4Runner is expected to receive a luxurious cabin with premium materials and several high-tech options such as keyless ignition, Bluetooth connectivity, and GPS navigation.

Riding on a truck-inspired body-on-frame chassis, engine options are expected to include a 161 hp 2.7-liter four-cylinder and a 258 hp 4.0-liter V6. Reflecting its off-road ambitions, the 4Runner will be available with a dynamic suspension system, hill descent control, and water-repellant seats.

Look for more information to be released when the 4Runner officially debuts at the Texas State Fair.

Surely a typo. Don't you mean the 2001 4Runner?

Is that a facelift? It looks identical as the 4runner 10 years ago.

Fail. And if the engine output is real then epic fail. That thing will not move. I use to like them but Toyota is getting worse.

maybe they should go and talk to other car designers who keep on putting wicked car designs out. I can see that they are trying to seperate the cars from others, seems it doesnt always work :S

I can't understand why Toyota never makes refined vehicles. Every single thing they sell has jutting edges, awkward lines and out of whack proportions. Please make something more handsome, like the last generation Land Cruiser.

The side of the truck sure looks like a 2001 sequoia with square lines

Toyota is weird, because they have the higtech prius, but than they also have cars like this. This car gives me the impression that toyota doens't really want to improve the quality or mpg. I mean the have a venza 2.7 L4 who makes 182 hp. Toyota must be thinking that if the want to sell cars in the usa, the have to give it american style engines, 4.0 v6, 5.7 v8.

Almost getting to the point where it looks bloated like the Sequoia. The great thing about 4Runner and Tacoma is that they WERE small, but...I guess no one really off-roads anymore anyway. Shame.

Wow, well I think this is amazing looking. Also WCF your engine info is incorrect. The 4.0L engine is a revamped Dual VVT-i and will make more horse with less fuel then the last. As for boondoc001 comment it will move... like hell. The current Tacoma and last 4Runner used the old Single VVT-I engine and go like a rocket, so this truck being the same size with more power? Well you do the math. And HEMI426 the Venza uses the Toyota Car 2.7 not the Truck 2.7, two totally different engines built for different applications.....????
