That’s part of its appeal: It’s one of the best SUVs for a backwoods adventure. The 4Runner’s interior features are easy to use, it has high-tech off-road aids, tons of interior space for your gear and its optional suspension is capable off the beaten track.”

“Redesigned for 2010, Toyota’s original SUV is returning to its roots as a pickup-based mudslinger that is also comfortable on the street. Think four-door FJ Cruiser.” — Car and Driver
“For the relatively few drivers who require an all-conquering, all-terrain SUV, the … Toyota 4Runner is a top choice. Those city folk who need more passenger space and less off-road capability would be better served by a car-based crossover SUV.” — Edmunds
“Toyota loyalists with true wanderlust, but who think the company’s Land Cruiser is too expensive, will find enough to like here.”– Consumer Guide

Toyota Produces more 4-Cylinder Engines in Kentucky
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky makes engines for the Toyota Avalon, the Camry, and the Venza which are all assembled at the Kentucky plant. The engines are also built there for the Camry Hybrid and RAV4 which are made in Woodstock Ontario.
“Twenty six years ago, I took part in Toyota’s groundbreaking in Georgetown, which was filled with excitement for Kentucky’s future,” Governor Beshear said. “Today, we still have that same excitement for Toyota’s past, present and future in the Commonwealth. This latest expansion brings Toyota’s total investment to nearly $6 billion, meaning billions of dollars in incomes for thousands of Kentuckians, changing lives, strengthening our economy, and improving the Commonwealth.”
The total number of Toyota workers at the plant will equal 6,700 after the new project gets started.
“This is great news for our team members and our company,” said Wil James, president of TMMK. “This project is the result of the strong partnerships we have locally and across the state, which will help grow our business and strengthen the communities where we do business.”
This is the latest Toyota announcement regarding several production increases since February including Toyota plants in Indiana, West Virginia as well as Canada.
“This engine production increase and the several announcements before it reflect our growing optimism for an improving North American market,” said Steve St. Angelo, executive vice president of Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing in North America.
According to Senator Mitch McConnell: “I appreciate Toyota’s continued commitment to supporting Kentucky’s economy, this new engine expansion project at the Georgetown plant will provide much-needed jobs, which will help get more Kentuckians back to work.”
“I am thrilled that Toyota is increasing its assembly capacity at the Georgetown plant,” said Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. Toyota’s investment means more jobs and a boost for Central Kentucky at a time when our economic recovery needs momentum. Clearly, Toyota is committed to its presence in the Commonwealth.”
“By investing in this plant, Toyota is making a positive statement about the economic strength of our region,” said Rep. Ben Chandler, D-Ky. This expansion will create new jobs and put more Kentuckians back to work. I’ve always been proud that Toyota chooses to call Central Kentucky home to its largest plant in North America, and today is no exception.”
