Can a STOCK 4Runner Handle 2ft of Snow?

Published at : 12 Dec 2025

Can a completely stock 4Runner handle a deep snow off-road trail with modified Jeeps and Broncos? We pushed my factory 4x4 through over 2 feet of fresh Canadian powder to find out if it's one of the best winter vehicles you can buy. Spoiler: the results were surprising!

In this episode of The Curiosity Drive, I'm taking you along on a serious snow wheeling adventure. You'll see how a stock Toyota 4Runner with good winter tires performs against heavily modified rigs on a challenging trail. We'll tackle steep, snowy inclines, deep drifts, and tight wooded sections. Using a mix of drone footage and in-car narration, I'll show you exactly what this 4x4 is capable of without any expensive upgrades. Is Toyota's A-TRAC and Crawl Control just a gimmick, or does it actually work? Stick around for my final verdict at the end!
