You couldn’t ask for a better truck for adventuring than a 2024 Toyota Tacoma. It’s always been equally good at toting families, hauling cargo, towing trailers, and blazing trails. however, it now has improved powertrains, modernized features, and more. It’s on Car and Driver’s 2024 Editors’ Choice list.
Design
The 2024 Tacoma has an appealing contemporary interior with a raised ceiling making the cabin feel extra spacious. Taller occupants, in particular, will enjoy all the additional headroom created by newly squared angles on the roof.
The Tacoma has two different configurations for both cab and bed length. Extended Cab models feature a six-foot bed, but Double Cab models can choose a five-foot bed alternative.
Performance
A turbocharged 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine with 278 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque is standard on the 2024 Tacoma’s two lower trims. An 8-speed automatic transmission and part-time 4-wheel drive on demand are also standard on all models.
The Tacoma has always been a genuine workhorse, and it’s extremely gratifying to accomplish so much with it while using so little effort. It can tow up to 6,500 pounds, enough to pull most mid-sized trailers. You can haul up to 1,705 pounds, as well. Best of all, the off-road models are already equipped with the hardware you’ll need to go practically anywhere.
Technology
The Tacoma’s interior makeover for 2024 included some significant changes to the line’s technology features. The base model’s standard 4-speaker sound system comes with a free 3-month SiriusXM trial subscription, and an 8-inch multimedia touchscreen display anchors the infotainment system. A huge 14-inch touchscreen is standard on higher trim levels and beautifully displays maps and exterior camera views.
Wireless compatibility with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is standard on all models, allowing you to remain connected, stream your favorite content, and use your phone maps while on the road.
