Toyota has recently announced the first pricing details for the all-new (N400) 2024 Tacoma - currently, we know the MSRPs for the models equipped with the i-Force mill, which is gas-only and provides up to 278 horsepower.
So, the 2023 Toyota Tacoma starts in America from $28,600, while the Japanese automaker's US subsidiary recently announced that the first N400 Tacoma units reaching nationwide dealerships have a starting MSRP of at least $31,500 sans $1,495 for destination and other fees. The difference is almost $3k, which could make some fans cringe – especially since the 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2024 Nissan Frontier are currently lower priced. Alas, the 2024 Tacoma is also cheaper than other rivals like the Ford Ranger, GMC Canyon, Honda Ridgeline, or Jeep Gladiator.
Plus, the workhorse is not precisely a no-frills vehicle anymore, no matter what the steel wheels try to hint. Equipped with the 2.4-liter i-Force mill, the SR grade packs an entry-level power rating of 228 hp, but most other grades will get the 270 (with six-speed iMT manual transmission) or 278 hp version. And it's not devoid of great stuff like the standard Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 suite of active safety and convenience systems. There's also a nice eight-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus keyless entry and push-button start – something that even the extra-expensive Gladiator doesn't have from the get-to
It still comes with leaf springs, so big payloads and construction site fun is still a go. Moving on, the SR5 starts from $36,200 and has goodies like a coil-spring rear suspension on the Double Cab model, 17-inch alloy wheels, and more. The TRD PreRunner is strictly an XtraCab affair with the 6-foot bed, 17-inch TRD alloy wheels, electronic-locking rear differential, and a $38,100 base MSRP. It only has 2WD but compensates with a lifted front suspension and larger diameter BFGoodrich all-terrain tires.
If you want something sporty instead, then perhaps the TRD Sport model is the proper grade for you at $39,400. This one can be had with a TRD mesh grille, hood scoop, 18-inch black TRD wheels, black badges, aluminum pedals inside, and an available six-speed iMT. Last but not least – until the i-Force Max hybrid powertrain becomes available, the flagship grades are the $41,800 TRD Off-Road and $52,100 Limited.
Each caters to a different clientele, though – those seeking outdoorsy adventures have the TRD Off-Road prepared with Bilstein shocks, Crawl Control, and MTS (Multi-Terrain Select). On the other hand, the premium Limited grade has an optional AVS Adaptive Variable Suspension system, 18-inch chrome alloy wheels, and chrome accents on the body, plus a powered tailgate and running boards. Inside, there's a head-up display, a 14-inch infotainment touchscreen, premium JBL audio, a digital rearview mirror, and a power moonroof, among others.
