the 4th and 5th gen 4Runner had about the same wheelbase as the Standard cab 2nd gen Tacoma. The Access Cab and SB Double cab had about 18" longer wheelbase. the New 250 Series (GX/Prado/2024US LC) has the same 112" Wb that the big Landcruisers have had since the 80 series. The front axle...
Sharing the F platform is definitely widening the Midsize vehicles, at least in terms of track width. You can pull up spec sheets for the '24 GX and LX- the dimensions are way closer than you'd think. Hopefully someone can get measurements soon to see if a "Tundra swap" is possible, just like...
I would expect the 4R to be a little smaller than the LC, esp. in WB and LOA. The Fortuner has long been a little shorter than the Prado, and I expect the Fortuner and 4R to be closer than either is to the LC. Front end styling will be very close to the Tacoma.
It would, but I'd be absolutely shocked. BUT... Ford and Jeep seem to think that the market is there, and Toyota has already spent the powertrain development money for the Tacoma.
Even some good pre-existing horizontal cut lines would help.
