I believe it has the Tacoma interior....... not sure if that is a good or bad thing?

I really do think there has to be something going on with national level regulation. The stall with the LC in US could pave the way for the next one? Assuming the engines are similar to Taco...... 4T and hybrid offerings.
I like what I see so far. If there is a hybrid option, I would be happy to take whatever I can get my hands on first between the LC and the 4runner.
I am still interested in the 4Runner, but TRD John is saying the interior looks likely to be a carbon copy of the Tacoma, which is a bit disappointing IMO.
Also, why the hell do people need a TV on the dashboard??

Come on now it is so they can watch all the other off roaders fall by the wayside as they drive away.......

I spent a little time looking at the 24 Tacoma YT vids. Honestly, I like the interior. I do agree for the cabin space, that screen looks quite large. My hubby is encouraging me to drive a Taco to get a feel for the ride, but I think if I do that, I'm going to walk away with one and just put a top on it. lol
It’s not that I detest the screen size, it is more of its placement. If it was integrated into the dash would be much more appealing visually. The Land Cruiser screen flows seamlessly into the dash.
The 4Runner screen seems an afterthought.

Looks pretty good! I'm glad to see Toyota keep the roll down window in the back, we love that feature.
Now driving a ‘21 4Runner TRD Pro, so I feel like I can’t lose! I love it but hope the LC or next gen 4R gives me legitimate reasons (besides new vehicle obsession) to get one or the other. I’m on a waiting list for each. Which will it be??
Good video from TRD Jon
I like the interior as well. I like the whole thing, really. Almost bought one until I heard the LC was coming out. That said, I was hoping for something a bit different for the 4Runner now that the Tacoma is essentially a mini version of the Tundra and Sequoia. I really like the timeless interior of the Land Cruiser though.
Reading your post, you are beginning to sway me back to the LC......
I run a design/build/reno business. My wife is an Interior Designer. We are very big on designing interiors that won't go out of style or look dated in a few years. The LC has that in spades - more than the GX even, IMO.
A lot of people on the forums asking "why pay more for the LC250 when the 4Runner has the same running gear". In my opinion the LC250 looks much better. That and full-time 4WD with locking rear diff justify the $10,000 premium of the LC250.
Thats just a photosop of the Tacoma interior.. you can see the poor work on the dash where "Tacoma" letters usually are. I do think it will be pretty damn close though.
