Market analysis
Why does the Toyota 4Runner center console cost more?
A used Toyota 4Runner center console carries a median asking price of $196, which is 52% higher than the Volkswagen Taos at $129. Supply also plays a role: Toyota 4Runner has 9,122 priced listings versus 620 for Volkswagen Taos, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Volkswagen Taos average ($153) runs 19% above its median ($129), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 11 model years for the Toyota 4Runner (2015–2025) but only 4 for the Volkswagen Taos (2022–2025), so the Toyota 4Runner data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Toyota 4Runner center console is interchangeable across 12 model years versus just 4 for the Volkswagen Taos — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Volkswagen Taos is 34% cheaper ($129 vs $196) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used center console
- Check shifter configuration compatibility, accounting for floor-mounted automatic shifters, manual transmission boots, or rotary dial selectors.
- Match interior color codes, stitching, and trim finishes (woodgrain, brushed aluminum, piano black) with your vehicle's dash and door panels.
- Verify that all electrical features—such as rear climate controls, USB charging ports, ambient lighting, and seat heater switches—have intact wiring harnesses.
- Inspect hinge mounts, latching mechanisms, and cupholder assemblies for broken plastic tabs that prevent smooth opening or secure mounting.
