The 2024 Toyota Tacoma has been revealed and it will be offered in a wide array of trim levels, but the majority of them will probably look like this slightly more modest limited trim.
We say modest granted, this is a higher trim level with plenty of chrome, but it looks closer to lower trim levels than say the TRD Pro or the Trail Hunter.
It shares much in common styling wise with the Tundra and in fact, it shares quite a bit underneath as well.
It uses the same basic platform as the Tundra and the Sequoia.
Some additional upgrades over the previous Tacoma include standard four wheel disc brakes and now there's an available coil spring rear suspension which is a multi link live axle set up.

- The 2024 Toyota Tacoma has been revealed. And it will be offered in a wide array of trim levels. But the majority of them will probably look like this slightly more modest limited trim. We say modest, granted this is a higher trim level with plenty of chrome. But it looks closer to lower trim levels than, say, the TRD Pro or the Trailhunter.
It shares much in common styling wise with the Tundra. And, in fact, it shares quite a bit underneath as well. It uses the same basic platform as the Tundra and the Sequoia.
Some additional upgrades over the previous Tacoma include standard 4-wheel disc brakes. And now, there's an available coil spring rear suspension, which is a multilink live axle setup. However, lower trims will get a traditional leaf spring.
Two main engines are available. There's a regular 2.4 liter turbocharged four cylinder. And on this limited is a hybrid version. The regular gas engine makes 278 horsepower and 317 pounds feet of torque. It's available with either an eight speed automatic or a six speed manual. The six speed manual version makes slightly less power at 270 horsepower.
The very basic SR trim is detuned down to 228 horsepower. As for the hybrid, it makes more than 300 horsepower and more than 400 pounds feet of torque. It's available only with an eight speed automatic.
The truck is available with a variety of cab configurations. You have the extra cab with the shorter five foot bed on display here. But there is a two-door extended cab that has just one front row of seats with a six foot bed. Or you can have a six foot bed on this version. The 2024 Tacoma goes on sale later this year just with the standard gas engine. But the hybrid will go on sale in 2024.
