Top Reasons to Choose the 2020 Toyota Tacoma

The 2020 Toyota Tacoma was launched in September, building on the success of previous models that set sales records and secured the midsize pickup segment. It offers exceptional reliability, advanced technology, and comfort. Here are four compelling reasons to consider the 2020 Tacoma.

Reliable Performance

The truck features two engine options: a 2.7L four-cylinder with VVT-i producing 159 hp and 180 lb-ft torque, and a 3.5L V6, utilizing Variable Valve Timing and Atkinson cycle to deliver 278 hp and 265 lb-ft torque. Both engines achieve close to 20 mpg city and 24 highway, with a towing capacity reaching 6,800 lbs.

The 2020 Tacoma's technological features have been greatly advanced from the previous year. The SR trim offers a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims feature an 8-inch display. All models support Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Alexa, complemented by a six-speaker sound system and rearview camera with parking assist. Additional features include a panoramic monitor and smart key with push-button start.

Enhanced Safety Features

Designed for improved off-road safety, the 2020 Tacoma comes equipped with Vehicle Stability Control, Electronic Brake-Force Distribution, Brake Assist, Traction Control, and an advanced airbag system. Toyota’s Safety Sense P adds pre-collision systems with pedestrian detection, lane departure alerts, automatic high beams, and adaptive cruise control. The vehicle has received a four-star safety rating after crash testing.

Exceptional Off-Road Capability

Awarded the best midsize pickup for 13 consecutive years, the Tacoma continues to excel in off-roading. The TRD variants enhance this reputation with features like a redesigned grille, 17-inch wheels, LED fog lights, and chrome accents. The Off-Road trim offers Multi-Terrain Monitor for added visibility, while the TRD Pro includes 16-inch wheels, Rigid LED fog lights, and distinctive LED headlights.
