This is a Motormouth couple car review of the all-new 2024 Toyota Tacoma mid-size pzickuptruck. Ten things you need to know.
Let’s start with the new powertrains. There are two powertrain options, the standard engine is a 2.4L turbocharged 4-cylinder with an 8-speed automatic transmission, 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. There is also a 6-speed manual transmission with automatic rev matching and anti-stall technology. Manual transmission models produce 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. There’s also the available I-Force Max Hybrid powertrain with a 2.4L turbocharged 4-cylinder, 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. This nearly doubles the torque of the current V6 model. It has a 48 horsepower electric motor integrated into the 8-speed transmission with a 1.87 kWh battery pack.
The Tacoma now features suspensions that are specific to each grade. For example, TRD Sport has red TRD sport tuned shocks for a more responsive feel.The TRD off-road grade has monotube Bilstein remote reservoir shocks, the TRD Pro has FOX’s new QS3 three-way adjustable internal bypass shocks with remote reservoirs, the Trailhunter has Old Man EMU 4x4 suspension by ARB that is tuned for optimum levels of off-road control and Limited grades feature a new adaptive variable suspension. A new front cross member was constructed for the steering gear box, a new high lift jack point is integrated into the rear frame and to enhance ride and handling characteristics is a newly available multi-link suspension, this replaces the previous model’s leaf springs in favour of a set of coils. However, the leaf springs stay on SR, SR5 Xtra Cab grades and TRD Prerunner. The Tacoma also gets new 4-wheel disc brakes, TRD models and above are equipped with a larger front brake package and the hybrid model adds a larger rear brake package.

This trim comes with a steel rear bumper, robust rear recovery points, a bed utility bar with with removeable MOLLE panels. It has either a 5 or 6 foot bed and a double cab configuration. Serious Overlanders can take their Trailhunter to the next level with available light or heavy duty versions of a full ARB bed rack to support additional gear like tents, canopies or a tent shower. The OME shocks and the 33” tires boost up Trailhunter and additional 2” in the front and 1 1/2” in the back. A high clearance tail exhaust tip is also standard.

Great dropping video with facts about the Tacoma. Loving the jungle lush green surroundings. Oh and nice boots.

Tacoma is my favourite truck. TRD Sport is so desirable until I saw the Trailhunter. Toyota has upped the ante, with one of their most iconic and successful models. I have high expectation for the new 4Runner, which should be another homerun.

So Zach gets his new taco, and Andrea gets her 6sp GTI, beyond bright edition. Good job Toyota

[DukeTDang]

❤‍🔥the dedication and connections to get in on the Tacoma launch! Thanks for posting!

[saugusandsausages]

I’m not in the market for a new vehicle and already got one a few months ago but enjoy watching these videos anyway. You two are adorable together!

[BayaniPena]

Wow! This is my dream truck! Thank you very much for this video. I want to ask about the second row seats' leg room, did Toyota added a few inches?

[ctclardy]

I am not a truck person and have little interest in the however, I do have a deep interest in the upcoming 2024 4-Runner and I believe this Tacoma you are revealing is a preview of the new 4-Runner.... that is, it is highlighting the new engine offerings and, off-road capabilities and, various trim offerings that will carry over into the 4-Runner.... at least, I hope so because there are a lot of the new things about the 2024 Tacoma I really like.... especially, the various engine availabilities.

Toyota will continue to totally dominate the mid size segment with this line up.

[dalea]

Lol, i love the way she says Bilstien

[davidwarburton]

Really hard to go to the Big Island to test a truck; but someone has to do it. Thanks guys!

[regwilson]

Great review and Toyota has a winner here. Saw a button that you can lock the the rear differential?

[TheAmritsarsingh]

Why they can’t put little bigger cab and 6 foot bed on pro or at least 5.5 bed. With 5 foot bed hood seems to be longer than bed

[coy]

Strive to see a steel bumper on some trims, i miss vehicles having functional bumpers. I like the changes but scared to see the price!

[patrickv]

When does this go on sale in Canada...I think end of 2023 Thanks

[IamSincere]

Is the bed wider than the 3rd generation?

[pkeletaona]

I want the trd pro version, and those boots along with it. Lol
Hello from the south pacific ❤❤❤❤❤

[michaelsylvester]

I agree it looks badass nice countdown.😊

[markcasso]

Been watching all these new reveals. Haven’t seen the Trd off-road. Kind of wondering if they’re going to drop that model. Where are you at.

[mfaust]

What is the weight? Could I tow it behind my Class A RV?

[jmyers]

This Tacoma would be over the top in Army green.
