The Tacoma also has plenty of standard tech to keep you connected and make every adventure more convenient.
4 Impressive Aspects of the 2025 Toyota Tacoma
1. Powertrain Choices
No matter what you need to get done, there’s a Tacoma powertrain that’s made just for you. Every grade has an i-FORCE 2.4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine paired to either an 8-speed automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission. SR grades with an automatic transmission have 228 horsepower and 243 lb.-ft. of torque and tow up to 3,500 pounds. Other AT models have 278 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque, with towing capacities of up to 6,500 pounds.
Tacoma models equipped with a manual transmission have 270 horsepower, 310 lb.-ft. of torque, and up to 6,400 pounds of towing capacity. Drivers can also choose from rear-wheel drive with an automatic limited-slip differential or a 4WDemand part-time 4-Wheel Drive system with an electronically controlled 2-speed transfer case.
2. Toyota Audio Multimedia
Vehicle, audio, and navigation information is clearly displayed on the Tacoma’s Toyota Audio Multimedia display, available in either an 8-inch or 14-inch size. This system uses wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to connect seamlessly to compatible smartphones, so you can play your music, interact with your apps, and display driving directions on the screen. When you choose the optional JBL 10-speaker audio system, you’ll also get a FLEX portable Bluetooth speaker that you can take with you.
3. Innovative Cargo Options
The Tacoma comes with a deck rail system, and you can choose from a 5-foot or 6-foot bed. Both beds have adjustable tie-down cleats and fixed tie-down points to help you secure your cargo. The two-passenger XtraCab and five-passenger Double Cab also have innovative storage solutions inside. The XtraCab comes with a fold-flat front passenger seat and a lockable deep storage compartment, while the Double Cab has a 60/40 split-folding rear seat with more storage behind and underneath the seat.
4. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0
Standard on every Tacoma, Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is a suite of driver assistance features that enhance your safety and convenience. To help you avoid or lessen the impact of a collision, its Pre-Collision System scans the road ahead for vehicles and pedestrians, then warns you if a collision is predicted. If you don’t respond to the warning, it may also engage emergency braking.
