The only thing holding you back from buying the 2023 Discovery or the 2022 Toyota 4Runner is choosing a car. Both vehicles could serve you well around Rockland, Norwell, and Weymouth, Massachusetts, but only one can stay. Let Land Rover Rockland examine the features to determine which one to ultimately buy.
While both SUVs provide room for seven among three rows, it’s the amenities that come into play. The Discovery offers heated seats in every single row! Only the Toyota front row gets this perk.
Lay back in luxury with available 20-way seats in the Discovery. You’ll get the right amount of visibility with multiple positions. In the Toyota, an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat can be found. Both provide you with ventilated front seats, but only the Discovery cools off the rear seats, too.
On top of climate-friendly seating, the cabin benefits from available 4-zone Climate Control in the Discovery. If you want the same in the Toyota, at its best, an optional dual zone automatic climate control system can be found.
Ample space for stretching out extends to the back two rows in the Discovery. See how it compares with the Toyota.
| Dimensions 2nd/3rd Row | Discovery | Toyota 4Runner |
| Legroom | 37.4/33.5 in. | 32.9/29.3 in. |
And even with a panoramic roof installed in the Discovery, the headroom reaches 40 inches. With the Toyota, it only spans 39.3 inches.
You cannot compare the screen sizes of the Discovery with the Toyota 4Runner. Behind the wheel, the Discovery provides an available 12.3-inch Interactive Driver Display that is three times larger than the Toyota at 4.2 inches for the Multi-Information Display.
Inching toward the center main screen, the Discovery again prevails. An 11.4-inch Pivi Pro Touchscreen takes up space with a glowing panel next to its sibling screen. For the Toyota, you’ll get an 8-inch Touchscreen display.
Standard safety features make having the Discovery feel like a knight in shining armor. These features come in handy, whether you’re looking for hiking trails or exploring the urban jungle.
Unfortunately, the Toyota does not offer anything comparable to the Driver Condition Monitor. This system tracks your driving to detect any patterns of drifting. It does offer a similar Panoramic View Monitor, but it does not come standard. That’s also the case for their available front and rear parking assist.
Even with a smaller engine, the Discovery exceeds the performance level you can expect from the Toyota 4Runner. Under the hood of the Discovery, you’ll see a 2.0L I4 engine that produces 296 horsepower with 295 lb-ft of torque. The Toyota’s only engine, the 4.0L V6 engine, generates 270 horsepower with 278 lb-ft of torque.
Depending on how much you plan to haul, you’ll want to know which SUV tows more. With the Discovery, you can expect to tow up to 8,200 pounds when properly equipped. If you’re considering the Toyota, it tops out at a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds.
There’s no holding back when you know that you want to buy the 2023 Discovery. It dominates whatever the 2022 Toyota 4Runner has to offer for Rockland, Norwell, and Weymouth, MA, drivers.
So, come by Land Rover Rockland to test drive this well-rounded SUV and see what you think. Call or contact us online today.
