2024 Toyota Tacoma Pricing & Specs

From $31,500

Standard and only available on the base SR trim, the entry-level 2.4-liter turbocharged engine makes significantly less horsepower and torque than it does in higher Tacoma trims. If you just want the closest thing Toyota offers to a Tacoma work truck, though, this version has your name all over it — unless you need to tow more than 3,500 pounds, because the lower-output engine puts that limit on the SR's towing capacity. Note that the XtraCab layout includes neither rear doors nor rear seats; there's just storage back there.

The payload capacity goes up slightly for the Tacoma SR Double Cab 4x2 relative to the XtraCab, but towing capacity remains capped at 3,500 due to the lower-output version of the 2.4-liter turbo engine. You need to graduate from the SR trim level if you want to tow more than 3,500 pounds.

Adding four-wheel drive increases the base SR XtraCab's price by a healthy $3,200 without adding any ground clearance (you actually lose a tenth of an inch), and of course the fuel economy takes a hit, too, not to mention the payload capacity. So unless you really foresee needing a 4X4 truck, we think RWD is the way to go with this one.

Starting with the SR5 — the trim captured here — the 2.4T engine generates considerably more output, which not only makes for a quicker Tacoma but also a more capable one, bumping the max towing capacity up to 6,500 pounds. The XtraCab 4x2 is the cheapest way to get the high-output engine, but if you want a little more spice with your XtraCab 4x2, take a look at the Tacoma PreRunner, which is an off-road-ready variant that still starts well under $40k. Note that all XtraCab Tacomas come with rear leaf springs, while all Double Cabs except the SR get the new coil-spring rear suspension — so if you want the high-output engine and the rear coil springs, you're looking at a Double Cab.

The Tacoma SR 4x4 Double Cab with the automatic gets closer to what you're thinking of if you want a Tacoma off-roader, but its lower-output engine holds it back. We'd either opt for the no-cost manual transmission on this version, which unlocks a lot more horsepower and torque, or else spring for a higher trim with the full-sauce 2.4T.

This particular Tacoma entry has a lot of work to do, because it has to answer the question: What 2024 Tacoma trims come with a manual transmission? Here's the answer, in brief: (1) 2024 Tacoma SR 4x4 Double Cab Short Bed, (2) 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport 4x4 Double Cab Short Bed, (3) 2024 Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4 Double Cab Short Bed. You'll notice the pattern — if you want a manual 2024 Tacoma, it'll have to be a Double Cab with the short bed and four-wheel drive. Beyond that, the SR delivers the most value at $36,900 to start, but it's got the lowest payload capacity at 1,380 lbs. The TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road aren't that much more expensive, checking in at $41,800 apiece, and they drive the max payload to 1,570 lbs and 1,525 lbs, respectively. All three variants max out at 6,400 lbs of towing capacity. Our pick — the TRD Off-Road with the optional 14-inch touchscreen — rings up an MSRP of $42,645. Note that all three manual Tacomas also share the same output figures, which almost but not quite match those of the high-output 2.4T engine when paired with the automatic. The difference is that the manual has an unusually low 5,400-rpm redline (versus 6,300 rpm with the automatic), reportedly because noise and vibration above that level with the manual were deemed undesirable by Toyota.

The only way to get a Tacoma XtraCab 4x4 with the higher-output 2.4T engine is via the SR5 trim level. This is a Tacoma worth considering if you don't need the bells and whistles of the various TRD 4x4 trims, but you do want both the long bed and the full 6,500-pound towing capacity of the stronger engine (though payload capacity is a relatively low 1,230 lbs). Note that the base SR XtraCab 4x4 also gives you the long bed but tops out at 3,500 pounds with its weaker engine, although it's $4,500 cheaper to start.

Your choices here are the SR5, the TRD Sport, the TRD Off-Road and the Limited. The TRD Off-Road claims top payload honors at 1,610 pounds, while the SR5 is top dog in the tow-olympics, but we suspect shoppers will care more about the packaging of these decidedly different trims. The SR5 is the value player, forcing you to accept the base 8-inch touchscreen and just generally limiting your options, while the TRD Off Road is exactly what the name suggests, and the TRD Sport is more about on-road profiling than getting dirty on the trails. As for the Limited, it's a more of an on-roader, too, but with lots of standard luxuries that cost extra on the two TRDs (and a starting price in the low $50s that reflects those extras).

Got a lot of depth in your garage? Maybe you could fit a double-cab long-bed Tacoma in there. This is a lot of truck, and it's arguably pretty far from the original mission of this midsize segment, but here we go with the three trim levels available in this configuration. The SR5 is the price leader, while the TRD Sport provides, well, a sporty on-road vibe — as well as that gaudy 1,700-pound max payload figure — and the TRD Off-Road brings an especially legit skill set in the dirt. They can all tow up to 6,400 lbs, but the TRD Off-Road drops to 1,655 lbs of max payload and the poor SR5 has to slum it at a 1,405-lb max payload.

From $46,300

Almost all Tacoma Hybrids are shipped in the Double Cab Short Bed 4WD configuration, the sole exception being the Trailhunter with its optional long bed. Except for that specific Trailhunter variant, the Tacoma Hybrid's towing capacity is 6,000 pounds across the board, but payload capacity is more variable, peaking at 1,705 lbs for the TRD Off-Road Hybrid but going as low as 1,425 lbs, again for the long-bed Trailhunter. In any case, the big story with the Tacoma Hybrid is its trifecta of horsepower, torque and fuel economy, as it wins each category handily versus the regular Tacoma 2.4T; however, the extra oomph is effectively canceled out by the Tacoma Hybrid's extra weight. The cheapest way into a Tacoma Hybrid is the TRD Sport trim at $46,300, but that's followed closely by the TRD Off-Road Hybrid, which is our recommendation, for just $300 more. Note that curb weight, ground clearance and height figures will vary depending on trim, while the 24 mpg figure is specifically for the Limited Hybrid and notches down to 23 mpg combined for all other Tacoma Hybrid models.

From $63,400

The big daddy of the 2024 Tacoma lineup is the long-bed Trailhunter, which is the only Tacoma that's offered with the hybrid powertrain in the Double Cab/Long Bed configuration. Its fuel economy is quite impressive for a truck that weighs more than 5,400 pounds, but with that price tag, a whole lot of things better be impressive.
