The Toyota Tacoma is a capable midsize pickup with an impressive roster of standard features, lots of configuration options, and rugged durability. It's also got oodles of off-road capabilities, making it a great choice for drivers who need a pickup bed, some towing power, and also want to have lots of fun off the beaten path.
It's available at seven trim levels: SR, SR5, TRD Sport, Trail Special Edition, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Limited. For the 2023 model year, the SR5 gets two new appearance packages - SX and Chrome - that give one of the Tacoma's most popular trims extra curb appeal.
Cabs and practicality
Two of the most common combinations for the Toyota Tacoma are the Access Cab and 6-foot bed or the Double Cab and either a 5- or 6-foot bed. The Access Cab features two full-sized doors and two smaller rear doors, with seating up to four. The Double Cab uses four full-sized doors and has seating for five. In the bed, composite lining and various tie-down points provide a nice blend of durability and practicality. Additionally, the Tacoma is offered with a lockable and removable tailgate, and most models also feature a 120-volt outlet.
Adventure-ready performance
The 2023 Tacoma is powered by either a 159-horsepower four-cylinder engine or a 278-horsepower V6. With the tow package, V6-powered models can tow up to 6,800 pounds. Rear-wheel drive is standard with all-wheel drive offered as an option on the Limited trim. AWD is standard on all the TRDs, as these are the models geared for off-road adventures.
To help you navigate obstacles and conquer trails, the Tacoma can be equipped with FOX® internal bypass shocks, a lift kit, extra underbody protection, and all-terrain tires. It also has useful features like Multi-Terrain Monitor that let you see all around the truck, with a close-up view of the sides so you can avoid damaging the bodywork on tricky, rocky paths.
Intelligent safety technologies
With standard Toyota Safety Sense™ P, the 2023 Tacoma has the most standard driver assistance technologies in its class. The package includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, dynamic radar cruise control, lane departure alert, and automatic high beams. The truck can also be equipped with rear parking assist sonar technology as well as a blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert.
Advanced connectivity features
All 2023 Toyota Tacoma models feature a high-resolution infotainment system that runs on a 7-inch touch screen on the base model and on an 8-inch touch screen at every other trim level. This multimedia system is compatible with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ smartphone connectivity, hands-free Bluetooth®, and even the Amazon Alexa smart assistant, which you can use in linkage with any smart Alexa device you might have at home. Available wireless charging and various USB ports make the Tacoma sufficiently well equipped to handle the charging needs of modern families.
Upscale interior comfort and convenience
The new Toyota Tacoma is packed with features that enhance everyday convenience and comfort. For example, the Smart Key System with Push Button Start enables you to lock, unlock, and start the pickup without every taking the key fob out of your pocket. On V6 models, a leather-wrapped steering wheel gives the truck an upscale touch. On Limited models, leather upholstery and a JBL® sound system, combined with 10-way power-adjustable seats, make for a genuinely premium experience. The Tacoma also gets standard dual-zone automatic temperature control and a one-touch power-opening rear window, convenient for accessing the back of the bed or simply airing out the cabin.
