2016 Toyota Tacoma Revealed

Jan 13, 2015

Toyota just unveiled the hot new 2016 Toyota Tacoma at the Detroit Auto Show! The Tacoma is one of the most popular pickup trucks of all time, so Toyota had a lot to live up to with the redesign. One of the biggest changes for the 2016 Tacoma is that it will receive a new V6 engine, with 3.5L of displacement compared to the outgoing 4.0L model. The new 3.5L V6 is expected to produce 300 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. This new motor will feature both direct- and port-injection and will deliver power through a 6-speed transmission (available in both automatic and manual). For those who don’t require as much power and want better fuel economy, the 2016 Tacoma will also have a 2.7L I4 engine available as well.

The Tacoma will come in 5 available trim levels ranging from SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, to Limited. Truly living up to its name, the Off-Road trim level will include a multi-terrain select system allowing you to choose between three different types of terrain: loose rock, mud, and sand. It will also offer such features as hill start assist, crawl control, an automatic limited slip and locking rear differential.

On the exterior, the 2016 Tacoma is starting to dress more like its big brother, the Tundra. The Tacoma nameplate will be stamped directly on the sheet metal of the tailgate. Wheels will be available in both 16-inch and 18-inch configurations.

In terms of fit and finish, the new Tacoma is expected to have a quieter cabin than the outgoing model, thanks to a floor silencer pad, multi-layer acoustic windshield, sound-absorbing headliner, and enhanced seals. In keeping with the new era of social sharing, every single Tacoma will now come standard with a GoPro mount located near the rear-view mirror. So whether you are off-roading, getting a job done, or just going for a scenic drive, you can record and share your Tacoma experience with all your friends. Additional options include goodies such as wireless charging, push-button start, leather upholstery, power moonroof, blind-sport monitoring with cross-traffic alert, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a new and improved touch screen audio unit.
