Features

High tech meets high performance. Tacoma's available Atkinson-cycle 3.5-liter V6 with direct injection is the perfect blend of efficiency and power, giving you more of everything you want.

Boats. Side-by-sides. Whatever toys you've got, Tacoma's got the power to bring 'em along. The powerful 3.5-liter V6 and available Tow Package help this truck tow up to 6800 lbs. or carry a payload of up to 1440 lbs. So strap it down, hitch it up and roll out—your ultimate adventure starts here.

When you're towing, sometimes the wind kicks up or a load shifts, causing the trailer to sway. Included with Tacoma's available Tow Package, Trailer-Sway Control (TSC) applies brake pressure at individual wheels and manages engine torque to help maintain control of the trailer.

When the trail gets challenging, Tacoma TRD Off-Road's Crawl Control (CRAWL) is here to help you conquer your off-road adventure. This advanced system automatically modulates the throttle and brakes on five low-speed settings so you can keep your focus on navigating across difficult terrain.

Don't let a patch of knee-deep sand give you the slip. Tacoma TRD Off-Road's standard electronically controlled locking rear differential distributes engine power evenly to both rear wheels so they move at the same speed, providing more grip in low-traction conditions.

Tacoma TRD Off-Road features Multi-terrain Select (MTS). With five modes to choose from, this system helps regulate wheelspin by automatically adjusting the engine throttle and traction control. When combined with standard Goodyear^® Wrangler^® tires with tough Kevlar^® construction, Multi-terrain Select helps improve traction dramatically, meaning you can get back to the fun more quickly.

Tacoma's Hill Start Assist Control (HAC) helps you safely get up those hills. This technology helps minimize Tacoma from rolling backward when you move your foot from the brake to the gas pedal, so you can move upward with confidence. (HAC not available on TRD Off-Road 4WD M/T.)

When the trail gets demanding, Tacoma's available Multi-terrain Monitor (MTM) lets you check your immediate surroundings for potential obstacles. Simply press a button to display front-, rear- and side-camera views on the 8-in. navigation screen.

Available Bilstein^® shocks know how to keep their cool under pressure, delivering consistent performance when the going gets rough. Standard on TRD Off-Road, these shocks help soak up the impacts of the trail, thanks to high-performance components and valving tuned specifically for off-road driving.

Breathe easier. Designed by TRD, this air intake places an air inlet high above Tacoma's windshield. It draws cool, fresh air from high above the dustline, helping prevent excess dirt from getting into the engine.

A unique TRD Pro skid plate comes standard on Tacoma TRD Pro. Constructed from 1/4-in.-thick aluminum, this piece of armor helps protect crucial mechanical components underneath the front end, so you can even go beyond points on the map.

When you got it, flaunt it. Exclusive to Tacoma TRD Pro is a set of LED headlight housings that feature an integrated, light-up TRD Pro logo. And with its iconic heritage grille, this truck reminds everyone why Toyota is still king of the off-road.

Engineered by TRD, these intense LED fog lights pack a lot of brightness into a compact package. Aluminum housings feature the Rigid Industries^® logo, and rugged construction helps ensure that these lights can endure harsher environments. With their wide-angle beam pattern, these lights help ensure you have light when, and where, you need it.

This is hard-core engineering. TRD-tuned FOX^® Internal Bypass shocks give you the ultimate in performance and control. Featuring 2.5-in. aluminum housings; hardened, oversize shock shafts; and remote reservoirs in the rear. These are designed to help provide more ground clearance, more travel, maximum damping and fade-free performance. In other words, this suspension helps smooth out the rough stuff.

Not just a pretty face, these 16-in. TRD black alloy wheels are constructed to provide an ideal balance of strength and weight savings. Each of these wheels comes wrapped in Goodyear^® Wrangler^® All-Terrain tires for optimal traction on- and off-road.

The 2020 Tacoma now offers standard Apple CarPlay^® compatibility. Just plug in your compatible iPhone^® and get directions, make calls, send and receive messages, listen to your own playlist and more—all via the familiar touch-screen interface.

Get into and out of that campsite with ease. Tacoma's available panoramic view monitor (PVM) uses cameras on the front, sides and rear of the truck to give you a 360-degree view of what's going on outside.

When backing up on a trail—or just backing out of your driveway—you need to see what's behind you. The standard backup camera mounted in Tacoma's tailgate handle helps you see an image of what the camera detects behind you on the available 7-in. high-resolution display.

No need to fumble for those keys. Tacoma's available Smart Key System lets you lock/unlock the driver and front-passenger side doors and start the engine—all while the Smart Key fob is tucked safely in your pocket or bag.

The available 4.2-in. color Multi-Information Display (MID) can be customized to show info, such as your Toyota Safety Sense^™ P (TSS-P) features, current mpg, inclinometer, and available Multi-terrain Select (MTS) settings.

Plug in your smartphone or other compatible device to stay charged up while on the go.

Toyota's available Remote Connect feature allows you to access select vehicle capabilities from your smart device. Locking and unlocking doors, starting and stopping engine, and finding and monitoring vehicle status are all possible through the Toyota app. One-year trial included.

When you enable Wi-Fi Connect, you can turn your Tacoma into a hotspot with 4G connectivity. This feature allows up to five devices to stay connected to favorite apps for work or play while conserving battery power and data for every device. Wi-Fi Connect with up to 2 GB within three-month trial.

Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD) is designed to help keep the road safe by detecting a vehicle or a pedestrian in certain situations. By combining millimeter-wave radar with a camera capable of shape recognition, the system provides an audio/visual alert, warning you of a possible collision under certain circumstances. If you don't react, the system is designed for automatic braking support to help mitigate the potential for a collision.

Intended for highway use and similar to "constant speed" cruise control, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) lets you drive at a preset speed. DRCC is designed to function at speeds of 25-110 mph and uses vehicle-to-vehicle distance control, which is designed to adjust your speed, to help you maintain a preset distance from the vehicle ahead of you that is driving at a slower speed. DRCC uses a front-grille-mounted radar and an in-vehicle camera designed to detect vehicles and their distance. If a driver is traveling slower than you, or within your preset range, DRCC is designed to automatically slow your vehicle down without deactivating cruise control. If DRCC determines you need to slow down more, an audio and visual alert notifies you and brakes are applied. When there's no longer a vehicle driving slower than your preset speed in front of you, DRCC will then accelerate to the preset speed and regular cruise control will resume.

Under certain circumstances, Lane Departure Alert (LDA) is designed to detect lane departure on roads with visible lane markings. LDA only activates when you're traveling at a speed of 32 mph or faster. When you see and hear the alert, after carefully checking the road around you, you should safely direct your vehicle back to the center of your lane.

The Automatic High Beams (AHB) feature is a safety system designed to help you see more clearly at night—without distracting other drivers. Designed to activate at speeds above 25 mph, AHB relies on an in-vehicle camera to help detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and taillights of preceding vehicles, then automatically toggles between high and low beams accordingly to provide the appropriate amount of light. By using high beams more frequently, the system may allow for earlier detection of pedestrians and obstacles.

Take comfort to new heights. Tacoma features a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat that includes 2-way lumbar support.

Tacoma is built to handle the demands of a hard-charging outing. Its interior features soft-touch materials to boost your comfort. And Tacoma Limited adds leather-trimmed seating surfaces for the ultimate in tough sophistication.

Let everyone behind you know who's in charge. The tailgate features an embossed Tacoma logo that complements the rugged look.

Tacoma's available LED headlights use LED elements for both the low and high beams, giving you bright, efficient light when you need it. And since they're bolted to the front of Tacoma, you can bet that they look awesome too.

Let the outside in. Tacoma's available power sliding rear window with privacy glass opens with just the touch of a button.

With its redesigned, aggressive grille and available smoked headlight and taillight housings, Tacoma remains the best-looking truck on the trail.

With various hidden, locking storage areas, Tacoma keeps your gear out of the way, out of sight and ready for your next outing.

Don't call it a bedliner. Tacoma's bed is composed of an ultra-durable, fiber-reinforced Sheet-Molded Composite (SMC) surface. This rugged tech boasts a greater impact strength than steel and will help keep the bed of your Tacoma looking good for years to come. An available bed-mounted 120V/400W outlet helps keep the action powered up even when you've left civilization in your dust.

When the desert calls, you want to bring your gear along for the ride. That's why Tacoma's bed comes standard with an innovative deck rail system. With four heavy-duty adjustable tie-down cleats, you've got the strength and adjustability you need to keep your cargo securely strapped down.

Every new Toyota comes with ToyotaCare, a maintenance plan that covers normal factory scheduled maintenance for 2 years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first, and 24-hour Roadside Assistance for 2 years, unlimited mileage.

When Tacoma's available Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) detects a vehicle, it illuminates a warning indicator on the appropriate outside mirror to alert you to the presence of the vehicle, helping you to determine when it's safe to change lanes. And when you slowly back out of a driveway or parking spot, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA) provides an audible indicator to warn you of approaching vehicles.
