What the figures mean
Toyota.com lists minimum ground clearance: the distance from the ground to the lowest point under the vehicle. It is the figure to check for deep snow, rutted gravel roads and steep driveway lips.
Approach and departure angles are the steepest slopes the front and rear can meet without the bumper touching. The TRD Pro's 23-degree approach angle, versus 15 degrees on the other grades, is the clearest difference between them on paper.
Load, tire wear and accessories can change the clearance of a real vehicle. The figures here are toyota.com's listed specifications.
