SR V6 4x4 Double Cab 5 ft. box 127.4 in. WB
2022 Toyota Tacoma
The Toyota Tacoma is the most popular mid-size truck in the country. It's a solid offering with excellent off-road ability and a reputation for very good durability and resale value. For 2022 it gets even better off-road, with a lifted suspension for the TRD Pro and for SR5 trucks with the Trail Edition package.
The Tacoma comes in two cab sizes, extended and crew; two bed lengths, 5 or 6 feet, and two drivetrains, rear- or four-wheel drive.
The base engine is a 2.7-liter 4-cylinder which comes with entry-level Tacomas. Far more common is the 3.5-liter V-6 with 278 horsepower, mated to a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission.
The 4-cylinder Tacoma earns EPA scores of 20 mpg city, 23 highway, 21 combined, while the same engine with four-wheel drive drops 1 mpg. The V-6 gets about the same mileage, thanks to newer technology: 19/24/21 mpg with rear-drive and 18/22/20 mpg in four-wheel-drive, with the automatic transmission.
The NHTSA gives the Tacoma four stars for safety, with four stars for frontal impact and rollover. The IIHS scores it with a mix of 'Good'? and 'Acceptable'? ratings.
Automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warnings, and adaptive cruise control are standard equipment.
