Small overlap front

The small overlap front evaluation consists of a driver-side and a passenger-side component. This vehicle has an incomplete rating because it has been tested only on one side.

Driver-side

Tested vehicle: 2014 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4-door 4wd
Rating applies to 2014-24 models

The Toyota 4Runner was redesigned for the 2010 model year. Beginning with 2014 models, the side curtain airbags were lengthened and reprogrammed to deploy in frontal crashes (in addition to side and rollover crashes) to improve occupant protection.
