Mostly from people who own 5th gen and are jealous of 50 extra horse power, way more torque and improved tech. There has been shots taken at the new design as well but were they supposed to just keep the vehicle looking the same for another 15 years. There isn’t really any drawbacks unless you arbitrarily consider Toyota to not make reliable vehicles anymore. Bit of a stretch if you ask me. The motor has been used in a Lexus vehicle since 2021.
