Toyota Tacoma

Just in time for three-margarita lunches (that’s a thing, right?) across the country, Toyota has announced pricing for the 2025 Tacoma. Redesigned from the frame up for the 2024 model year, little changes on the Taco for 2025. Adaptive dampers are now standard on the Limited trim level, while the TRD Pro and Trailhunter get new red tow hooks and the number of available prewired auxiliary switches for aftermarket accessories increases to four. Otherwise, it’s the same truck for almost the same price: Starting at $33,085, the 2025 Tacoma is only $90 more expensive than the 2024 model (all prices include $1,495 destination fee).

Taco Buffet

Toyota builds a remarkable variety of Tacomas. An extended cab the company calls XtraCab — with just two seats and plenty of space to toss stuff behind them, plus a 6-foot bed — is standard on the lower-level SR and SR5 trims and the only way buyers can get the Tacoma TRD PreRunner. A crew cab is available on the SR and SR5 and standard on the rest of the lineup. Some crew-cab trim levels are only available with a 5-foot bed, while others offer a choice of a 5- or 6-foot bed.

Toyota’s i-Force turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is standard on all 2025 Tacomas. In the SR, it’s detuned to 228 horsepower and 243 pounds-feet of torque. In the rest of the line, it makes 278 hp and 317 pounds-feet — except if it’s paired with the six-speed manual transmission available in the SR, TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road, where it generates 270 hp and 310 pounds-feet. An eight-speed automatic transmission is otherwise standard. On the SR, SR5 and TRD Sport, rear-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is a $3,200 option; 4WD is standard on the rest of the lineup. With RWD, Toyota says fuel-economy figures hold from 2024 and range from an EPA-rated 21/26/23 mpg city/highway/combined to 20/24/22 mpg; 4WD gas-only trucks range from 19/24/21 mpg to 19/23/20 mpg. (Official EPA ratings for 2025 aren’t yet available.)

With hybrid assistance, the turbocharged four-cylinder becomes the i-Force Max. The hybrid powertrain is available for $3,325 on the Limited, $3,720 on the TRD Sport and $4,020 on the TRD Off-Road; it’s standard on the Trailhunter and TRD Pro. The hybrid generates 326 hp and 465 pounds-feet of torque (but only 323 hp in the Trailhunter, which sucks intake air through a standard snorkel for improved water fording). Hybrid Tacomas are Toyota-rated at 22/24/23 mpg.

Safety Features and Trim Levels

Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard on the 2025 Tacoma and includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane departure steering assist, lane-centering steering, adaptive cruise control, road-sign recognition and automatic high beams.

The entry-level SR trim is a basic work truck that rides on 17-inch steel wheels but includes niceties such as LED headlights, keyless entry and start, and an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Upgrading to the SR5 adds 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, a blind spot monitor and rear cross-traffic alert.

Designed for desert cruising, the TRD PreRunner sports a front-end lift, underbody protection for the fuel tank and all-terrain tires. It also gets a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.

The TRD Sport features 18-inch wheels, larger front brakes, a unique hood scoop, LED in-bed lighting and automatic climate control. In addition to standard 4WD with a locking center differential, the TRD Off-Road adds an off-road suspension with Bilstein shock absorbers, 33-inch Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires and an available electronic anti-roll bar disconnect for greater suspension articulation.

Blending off-road capability with maximum on-road comfort, the Limited features adaptive shock absorbers, a moonroof, power running boards, power rear window, a 360-degree camera system, an integrated trailer brake controller, and front and rear parking sensors with automatic braking. It’s upholstered in synthetic leather and adds power-adjustable heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control, head-up display, 14-inch touchscreen, 10-speaker JBL audio system and wireless charging.

The Trailhunter and TRD Pro keep all of the Limited’s luxury content and add upgrades intended for different types of off-road exploring. Both feature a unique grille and front bumper for an improved approach angle, skid plates, a standard anti-roll bar disconnect, larger rear brakes, 33-inch Goodyear Territory all-terrain tires and Toyota’s Multi-Terrain Monitor, which uses front, side and rear cameras to improve off-road visibility and help with tire placement. Both Tacomas also feature four prewired auxiliary switches.

Aimed at the glamorous overlanding set, the Trailhunter rides on 2.5-inch Old Man Emu shock absorbers and has a power-operated tailgate and steel rock rails to protect the rocker panels from damage. The TRD Pro is intended for high-speed off-roading and features adjustable Fox 2.5-inch internal-bypass shocks and so-called IsoDynamic front seats with their own shock absorbers.
