MALIBU, Calif. (Nov. 28, 2023) – The Toyota Tacoma has dominated the mid-size pickup truck segment for nearly two decades, and the all-new 2024 Tacoma aims to set a new standard for modern trucks. Completely redesigned and reimagined for model year 2024, the Tacoma is ready to help drivers tackle their ambitious adventure bucket lists. For this new generation of Tacoma, Toyota engineers focused on its rich history of quality, durability and reliability – while incorporating modern tech, rugged styling and go-anywhere capability.

The all-new Tacoma was designed and engineered specifically for the U.S. market. Constructed from a high-strength boxed, steel-ladder frame, it adds numerous features that off-road enthusiasts will love.

The new Tacoma also diversifies its powertrain choices, with two options that improve both power and efficiency:-
- The turbocharged i-FORCE 2.4-liter engine produces up to 278 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque.
- The available i-FORCE MAX hybrid producing up to 326 horsepower and a massive 465 lb.-ft. of torque, the most torque in the mid-size truck segment.

The all-new 2024 i-FORCE Tacomas are expected to arrive at Toyota dealerships in December of 2023, with i-FORCE MAX models expected to arrive in the spring of 2024.

Homegrown: For Adventure
For Tacoma, its narrow body and wide upper grille are a nod to the original HiLux, with features like the aggressive skid plates as an outward expression of extreme ruggedness. Other signature design elements include the high-mount headlamps, side functional air guides and hexagonal grille motif, as well as integrated roof and tailgate spoilers. Improvements were made across all grades, as the team enhanced Tacoma’s on and off-road capability, from daily driving around town, to long trips, to severe rock crawling, to high-speed desert racing. As a result of the engineers’ efforts, this truck will perform in widely varied environments, from paved roads to trails.

Over-Built to Perform
The 2024 Tacoma utilizes Toyota’s TNGA-F global truck platform, high-strength steel. Aluminum has been incorporated into the upper body for weight reduction. Frame crossmembers are also strengthened to increase durability for rooftop tents, high lift jacks and camp fridges. The roof is equipped with integrated attachment holes that allow the ability to easily add roof rack rails on all models.

The incorporation of high-lift jack point into the rear frame end is a unique detail. Ride and handling characteristics on Tacoma have been enhanced thanks to the new available multi-link rear coil suspension. This system replaces the previous generation’s leaf springs on most models. Leaf springs remain available on SR, SR5 XtraCab and TRD PreRunner grades.

Disc brakes are standard on Tacoma for increased braking performance. TRD models and higher grades are equipped with an even larger front brake package. TRD models and above equipped with i-FORCE MAX include a larger rear brake package as well. To provide improved steering feel, Tacoma will now have electric power steering.

Smart Towing Tech
Maximum towing capacity of 6,500 lbs. on SR5 i-FORCE and TRD PreRunner and XtraCab grades, while its maximum payload increases on the new model to 1,710 lbs. for i-FORCE Max models.

- Trailer Back Up Guidance
- Straight Path Assist
- Panoramic View Monitor
- Blind Spot Monitor
-The wireless trailer camera installed on the back to provides a live, High-Definition view of what is behind the trailer displayed on the digital rearview mirror.

Improvements to the Bed
The bed volume is increased seven percent to help make loading gear a cinch, even when loading under the available tonneau cover. The bed is now deeper from rail to deck so a camp fridge or worksite gear could be stored under a closed tonneau cover. The truck bed is lightweight and extremely strong thanks to the new Sheet-Molded Compound (SMC) construction.

The aluminum tailgate features an available power open and close function with jam protection. The Tacoma borrows the tailgate’s quick release and close button from big brother Tundra. A hands-free tailgate closing is also possible thanks to the auto-close function that is activated by simply pushing up the tailgate with your knee.

Gas grades offer an available 400W AC inverter outlet in the bed and on the rear of the center console, while i-FORCE MAX grades will come standard with a 2400W AC inverter. 12V DC power access is also available in both the bed and in the cabin. The bed view camera allows you to keep an eye on your cargo while you are on the move.

Characteristics of Their Own
- TRD Sport: Red TRD sport-tuned shocks for a more responsive feel for road-hugging curves.
- TRD Off-Road: Features monotube Bilstein remote reservoir shocks with extended wheel travel and greater heat dissipation include an end stop control valve (ESCV)
- TRD Pro: FOX’s new QS3 three-way adjustable internal bypass shocks with remote reservoirs for improved high-speed off-road performance. FOX Internal Floating Piston (IFP) rear bump stops to improve bottom out feel.
- Trailhunter: Old Man Emu (OME) 4×4 Suspension by ARB that is tuned for optimum levels of off-road control and load carrying capability.
- The Limited: Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system that constantly adjusts damping forces based on changing road conditions. The linear solenoid-type AVS system features built-in actuators in the front and rear shock absorbers to continuously change damping force based on suspension movement severity to help give the new Tacoma a smooth, luxurious ride.

Improved Power
Use a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and most grades will offer up to 278 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque when paired with the new eight-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with intelligence (ECT-i). The entry-level SR’s powertrain will generate up to 228 horsepower and 243 lb.-ft. of torque all of this while getting up to a manufacturer 26 MPG (Hwy). Enthusiasts will be pleased to know that a six-speed intelligent manual transmission (iMT) with rev matching and stall avoidance technology is also available. The manual transmission models produce 270 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque.
