Design
The new Tacoma was recently redesigned and is now built on the TNGA-F global truck platform, just like the Tundra and Sequoia. The all-new Tacoma was engineered specifically for North America. In its fourth generation, the Tacoma comes with a new high-strength boxed, steel-ladder frame. It's equipped with outstanding features that off-road lovers can choose from. It also features an available fully redesigned multi-link coil rear suspension that significantly upgrades the ride and handling as you drive around San Luis Obispo, CA.
Interior
The redesigned Tacoma's cabin takes some major steps forward in terms of design. The dashboard comes with more upscale materials as well as high-resolution screens and traditional switchgear. While most Tacoma models have a 7.0-inch digital gauge cluster, the TRD Off-Road trims and higher feature a larger 12.3-inch all-digital screen. A head-up display is standard on the Limited model, which also comes with heated and cooled front seats.
A more easily adjustable steering column helps make the beloved "Taco" more comfortable for Los Angeles, CA area drivers. Like its predecessor, the newest edition of the Tacoma is available with an extended-cab body style, dubbed XtraCab, and crew-cab, which Toyota calls the Double Cab. The XtraCab is paired exclusively with a six-foot cargo bed, while the Double Cab is available with either the longer box or a shorter five-foot bed.
Technology
An 8.0-inch touchscreen is the centerpiece of the standard infotainment system, while a larger 14.0-inch display is available on some trims and standard on the Limited. Every version includes wireless Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, a four-speaker stereo, proximity keyless entry and push-button start. A wireless charging pad is optional, and so is a JBL audio system with a Bluetooth speaker that can be detached from the top of the dashboard. Other available tech includes a moonroof, automatic climate control, dual-zone automatic climate control, an automatically-dimming rearview mirror, a household-style power outlet and a power-sliding rear window.
