Highlights of the New Toyota Tacoma
New Features
The new model year brings a full redesign to the Tacoma. Now, the pickup sits on a variant of the body-on-frame TNGA-F platform shared with the redesigned Tundra. Additionally, there are updated power trains, more modern features, and a wider selection of trim levels. One of these is the newly introduced Trailhunter, which is geared towards off-roading and overlanding.
Performance
Powering every Tacoma is a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with varying strengths. The base SR trim produces 228 hp, while the other trims produce 278 horsepower. Though, in the Tundra i-Force Max, drivers will receive 326 hp, respectively. Each model is also equipped with either an eight-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission.
Tech & Safety
With its redesign, the Tacoma offers nicer material throughout the cabin and a new higher resolution infotainment system. Most models also feature a seven-inch digital gauge cluster, though TRD Off-Road has a 12.3-inch monitor.
An eight-inch infotainment screen dominates the center console, though trims like the Limited have a larger 14.0-inch display. Standard features include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A wireless charging pad and JBL audio system are available but optional.
For your safety, Toyota has installed the new Tacoma with many advanced driver-aids. These include automatic high beams, forward-collision warning, automated emergency braking, and lane-keeping assist. Advanced features, like blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic, are optional.
