Key Points

  • The 2026 Toyota Tacoma’s prices range from $33,740 to $65,945 (all prices include $1,595 destination charge).
  • No major changes for the 2026 model year
  • Huge variety of configurations and available hybrid powertrain

The Toyota Tacoma was wholly redesigned for 2024 and carries into 2026 with no major changes — just some new color options and a standard tow hitch on SR XtraCab extended-cab variants. But a returning Tacoma buyer or lessee could easily get a very different truck this year, as Toyota offers its mid-sizer in a staggering array of configurations: two cab sizes, two bed lengths, rear- or four-wheel drive, turbocharged or turbocharged and hybrid powertrains, manual or automatic transmissions, and a whopping eight trim levels. Base prices for those trim levels range from $33,740 to nearly double that. Let’s dive in.

Trim Levels and Safety Features

Riding on a leaf-spring rear suspension and 17-inch steel wheels to keep costs down, the base Tacoma SR is a basic work truck with manually adjustable cloth seats and a simple four-speaker audio system. Its few frills include LED headlights, keyless entry and start, and an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The SR5’s limited upgrades include 17-inch aluminum wheels, LED foglights, a body-color rear bumper, adjustable bed tie-downs and more available options.

Only available with the XtraCab and long bed, the PreRunner gets all-terrain tires, as well as a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, cloth seats and automatic climate control.

Beginning with the TRD Sport, Tacomas are fitted with a multilink coil-spring rear suspension for better ride and handling. The TRD Sport also features 18-inch wheels with all-season tires, LED bed lighting and six speakers.

4WD is standard on the TRD Off-Road and pricier Tacomas. In addition, the TRD Off-Road wears Bilstein shock absorbers, 18-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires and composite skid plates.

The most luxurious Tacoma, the Limited rides on 18-inch wheels and all-season rubber and offers adaptive dampers. Standard equipment includes sequential LED turn signals, a moonroof, a power-sliding rear window, power running boards, an integrated trailer brake controller and Digital Key, which allows owners to use their smartphone as a vehicle key. The Limited’s cabin is overhauled with synthetic leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats with power adjustments, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control and a rearview camera mirror. It also gets a head-up display, 10-speaker JBL sound system, wireless phone charging and upgraded 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system.

Both the Trailhunter and TRD Pro feature electronically disconnecting anti-roll bars for greater suspension articulation off-road, as well as unique remote-reservoir shock absorbers selected for their intended specialties. The Trailhunter gets 2.5-inch Old Man Emu shocks to help it balance heavy cargo loads with wheel control, while the TRD Pro’s 2.5-inch Fox internal-bypass dampers are adjustable for different types of terrain. Both also boast 33-inch off-road tires mounted on exclusive 18-inch wheels (finished in bronze for the Trailhunter and black on the TRD Pro), as well as redesigned front bumpers for improved approach angles, a 20-inch LED light bar in the grille, Rigid Industries foglights, steel ARB rear bumpers with red recovery hooks, rocker-panel protection and prewired auxiliary switches for powering aftermarket accessories.

The TRD Pro also gets aluminum skid plates and Toyota’s IsoDynamic front seats with in-seat suspension for greater comfort over rough terrain. The Trailhunter is differentiated by an intake snorkel, steel skid plates and a sport bar with removable modular lightweight load-carrying equipment panels that allow for the attachment of various tools and equipment.

Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard on every 2026 Tacoma. This suite of driver-assist systems includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-centering steering, road-sign recognition and automatic high beams.

Blind spot monitors and rear cross-traffic alert are optional on the SR and standard on the rest of the lineup. Front and rear parking sensors with automatic braking are also available for the SR through the TRD Off-Road, and they come standard on the Limited, Trailhunter and TRD Pro. A 360-degree camera system is also standard on the latter trio, and on the Trailhunter and TRD Pro, it features expanded capabilities to help spot obstacles and place wheels off-road.

Cab and Bed Configurations

The Tacoma is available with two cabs: an extended cab Toyota calls XtraCab, with just two doors and two seats but a lot of storage space behind them; and a crew cab Toyota calls Double Cab, with four doors and seating for five. The XtraCab is standard on the SR and SR5 trim levels and is the only option on the PreRunner, and the Double Cab is available on the SR and SR5 and standard for the rest of the lineup.

Two bed lengths are also available for the Tacoma: 5 and 6 feet. The XtraCab only comes with the long bed. The short bed is standard on crew-cab trucks, and the long box is optional on the SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road and Trailhunter. The Limited and TRD Pro are only built as crew cabs with the short bed.

Powertrain Specs and MPG

The 2026 Tacoma’s standard engine is Toyota’s i-Force turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder; it makes 228 horsepower and 243 pounds-feet of torque in the base SR and 278 hp and 317 pounds-feet in the rest of the lineup. In most Tacomas, the i-Force engine is teamed with an eight-speed automatic transmission. However, the Tacoma stands out among its peers for still offering a manual transmission: The six-speed is only available on the 4WD SR, TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road trucks. Engine power is reduced ever so slightly with the stick, to 270 hp and 310 pounds-feet of torque.

Rear-wheel drive is standard on most trim levels; 4WD is optional on the SR, SR5, TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road. The PreRunner is exclusively RWD, while the Limited, Trailhunter and TRD Pro are only available with 4WD. Crew-cab Tacomas can tow up to 6,400 pounds; the XtraCab can handle up to 6,500 pounds.

The i-Force Max powertrain is a hybridized version of the 2.4-liter four-cylinder, with electric assist boosting output to a total of 326 hp and 465 pounds-feet of torque. It’s an option on the 4WD TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road and Limited and standard on the Trailhunter and TRD Pro. With the added weight of the hybrid bits, the i-Force Max can only tow a maximum of 6,000 pounds.

With so many cab, bed and trim configurations, the Tacoma’s fuel economy varies quite a bit. Toyota says rear-drive models return between 20/24/22 mpg city/highway/combined and 21/26/23 mpg (official EPA fuel-economy estimates for 2026 are not yet available). 4WD trucks with the automatic transmission are rated between 19/23/20 mpg and 20/23/21 mpg. Regardless of trim level, the manual transmission is rated at 18/23/20 mpg. With the hybrid i-Force Max powertrain, fuel economy lands at 23/24/23 mpg for the Limited and 22/24/23 mpg for the rest of the lineup.
