What's New on the 2024 Toyota Tacoma
As we said, the vehicle is redesigned for its new generation. It uses a body-on-frame platform, and it also has received updates to the engine options as well as more trim levels, such as the new Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter, which is for those who want to do off-road and overlanding.
Performance
You'll be able to find a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine as the standard on the Tacoma SR, and it provides 228 horsepower while being available in rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, plus there's an eight-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission you can choose from.
Every other Tacoma trim uses the i-FORCE MAX Hybrid which takes that same 2.4-liter turbo engine and pairs it with an electric motor between the engine and transmission to give you 278 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. It's automatic transmission only, with front- or all-wheel drive, and provides ample efficiency.
It's expected that the new 2024 Toyota Tacoma is going to offer standout payload and towing, with current estimates being around 6,000 pounds for towing and up to 1,700 pounds of payload.
