As a result, high strength and endurance were ensured but interior room and on-road handling were compromised. This generation still utilized a body-on-frame construction design and a solid rear axle. The fourth generation (2002–2009) came with some notable modifications on the chassis and body of the vehicle. This generation included more luxury-oriented vehicles, but they had an appearance that was identical with the second generation’s. The third generation was presented in 1995 and featured a completely new body shell on an all-new chassis. Most models from this generation had four doors.
However, the second generation 4Runners came with a completely redesigned and fully steel integrated body mounted on the existing frame. The second-generation (1989–1995) still had many similarities with Hilux pickup. All models from this generation were available with only 2 doors. The first generation (1984–1989) came as an altered version of the existing Hilux (N50/N60/N70) with a short-bed pickup body. In its lifespan, the Toyota 4Runner was manufactured in five generations. In the beginning, the 4Runner was designed as a compact SUV but later, it developed into a mixture between a compact and a mid-size SUV. In 1984, Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota introduced a new line of SUVs called the 4Runner.
