The Toyota Tacoma has been on the vehicle sales leaderboard for multiple consecutive years, and the 2023 model is the newest talk of the town. Drivers initially love the interior’s modern-day comfort and functional design as well as the exterior’s familiar stylish Toyota look, but they stick around for the performance the Tacoma offers.
Basics About the 2023 Tacoma
Mechanics
The newest 4×4 double-cab Toyota boasts a robust six-cylinder 3.5-liter engine with a six-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive. It gets its power and speed from 278 horses and produces 265 pound-per-feet of torque. This year’s Tacoma has managed to strike the tricky balance between exhilarating off-roading performance and reliable, luxurious daily commuting. The gas-pressurized shock absorbers and front anti-roll bar make rough, uneven terrain easier to navigate and keep the control in your hands.
Equipment
The Tacoma capitalizes on its best-in-class towing capacity with the Toyota Class IV Towing package. This package includes a trailer hitch as well as a Trailer Sway Control system with a wiring harness. With a maximum payload weight of 1,155 pounds and a maximum trailering capacity of 6,400 pounds, you won’t have to sacrifice any belongings on outings, and you can buy everything you need from the hardware store in one trip.
New and Unique Technologies of the Toyota Tacoma
Performance Technology
This year, Toyota implemented the Tacoma with speed-sensing steering powered by hydraulics to increase your control over the drive. To increase the precision of performance, the front of the vehicle is fitted with a double-wishbone suspension, while the back has a solid axle leaf spring suspension.
In tandem with the ABS, the truck has disc and drum brakes in the front and rear, respectively. The brakes also possess an actuated limited slip differential to keep the speed under your command at all times. For ease of use, the Tacoma also has a built-in brake assistant with Hill Descent and Hill Hold Control programs.
Safety Technology
When you purchase your new Tacoma with us, you get a one-year trial of Toyota’s updated Safety Connect emergency SOS system, which connects you to the proper authorities with the simple push of a button. Helpful programs such as the Collision Mitigation system and the backup camera give you the peace of mind to navigate any driving or parking situation with confidence and ease.
The Tacoma also has the integrated 2023 Toyota Safety Sense P version, which includes pre-collision software with pedestrian detection as well as automatic intelligent high beams. This umbrella program also commands the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control system and Lane Departure Alert.
