banner image

The 2023 Tacoma is a reliable travel companion that draws on 80 years of global truck heritage. It comes in six bold and capable Access Cab and Double Cab models. You can elevate your experience with one of seven available packages, such as TRD Sport Premium, TRD Off Road Premium, and TRD Pro.

Walkthrough Review

Enjoy comfort and style as you venture into challenging terrains with the 2023 Tacoma's premium features. The driver's seat, wrapped in premium fabric or available leather, is 8-way power-adjustable. You can also bring the outdoors inside with the power sliding rear window and moonroof, and dual-zone automatic climate control allows everyone to find their comfort zone. The Tacoma is offered in either 4x4 Access Cab or 4x4 Double Cab setups. The latter includes 60/40 split fold-down seat backs, fold-out seat cushions, and under-seat storage, while the former comes with fold-up rear seats to maximize cargo space.

Interior

The Tacoma's rugged and bold exterior style is a testament to its off-road capabilities. You can further enhance its appearance with a TRD Off-Road body kit on TRD Off-Road models, which features rugged 16" alloys. Or, opt for the sporty and sophisticated TRD Sport models, which include a colour-keyed exterior hood scoop and a sport-tuned suspension. The Tacoma's reinforced tailgate, adorned with an embossed Toyota logo, is lockable to secure your cargo. It is also easily removable and can lift and lower quickly, providing access to a 5' or 6' cargo bed. A rear step bumper makes loading and unloading hassle-free.

Exterior

The 2023 Toyota Tacoma provides a range of powertrain options. It starts with a 2.7-litre I-4 engine delivering 159 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission for both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive choices. For more power, there's an available 3.5-litre V6 that delivers 278 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque, suitable for various driving situations. The 4x4 Access and Double Cab TRD Off Road Models enhance off-road capabilities with one-touch 4WD, Multi-Terrain Select, a locking rear differential, fortified fuel tank, transfer case skid plates, Bilstein shock absorbers, and Crawl Control, which autonomously manages wheel speed and traction in challenging terrains, allowing you to focus on steering.
