What's New About the Tacoma?
This year, Toyota has removed the models 2.7-liter four-cylinder and optional 3.5-liter V6 engines. Now, every model is powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. Although this powertrain has two outputs. The base model produces 228 hp while all other trims use a more potent 278-horsepower i-Force Max variant. All models also come with an eight-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission.
The cabin, too, has changed and now features an increased seating position. There's also an updated dash with nicer materials and higher-resolution screens. A seven-inch gauge cluster and an eight-inch touchscreen are standard. Although an optional 14.0-inch display is available, and on higher trims, a 12.3-inch gauge is standard.
All this, and we still need to talk about the biggest update of all, the new Trailhunter trim. This model is designed for off-road fun and comes with 33-inch off-road tires, high ground clearance, and skid plates. The model is also installed with the new i-Force Max powertrain for better all-terrain traversal.
