Overview
Standard bearer for the class, the Toyota Tacoma is all-new for the 2024 model year. It features more aggressive styling that remains recognizable as a Tacoma, and it’s backed up by an all-new chassis and suspension that rides more smoothly over ruts and bumps than before. The old V6 is gone, replaced by a lineup of turbocharged four-cylinder engines. There’s also an updated TRD Pro and an all-new Trailhunter trim. Both are designed for maximum off-road capability and powered by a new i-Force Max hybrid powertrain putting out a stout 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque, although without much of a fuel economy benefit.
