Power and Tech for the 2025 Toyota Tacoma

What kind of muscle does the 2025 Toyota Tacoma bring to the table? A lot more than you might expect. The standard engine is a 2.4L turbocharged four-cylinder that delivers up to 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque when paired with the eight-speed automatic transmission. For those craving more, the available i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain cranks things up to 326 horsepower and a best-in-class 465 lb-ft of torque—perfect for hauling gear, powering through muddy terrain, or towing up to 6,500 pounds with confidence. Even better, Toyota has fine-tuned the chassis and introduced a new multi-link rear suspension on most trims, giving the Tacoma smoother handling and ride comfort both on-road and off.

Can a rugged truck still be smart and tech-savvy? Absolutely—and the 2025 Tacoma proves it. The available 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen, which is standard on higher trims, is crisp, responsive, and easy to use. It runs Toyota's latest software with over-the-air updates, natural voice recognition ("Hey Toyota"), and integrated cloud navigation. Drivers also get a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster on select models, customizable to show maps, off-road angles, and vehicle diagnostics. Tech isn't just about entertainment; Tacoma also helps keep you safe. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 now includes features like proactive driving assist and lane change assist, plus blind spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is available, making it easier to navigate city traffic or tight trails.

Why settle for a truck that can't keep up? The 2025 Tacoma is built to take on serious challenges, whether you're hitting the trails or tackling a job site. It offers up to 11 inches of ground clearance and is available with skid plates, Bilstein or FOX shocks (depending on the trim), and an electronically locking rear differential. TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro trims add specialized drive modes like Multi-Terrain Select and Crawl Control, which act like off-road cruise control to help you focus on steering through tricky spots. There's even a new Trailhunter trim built in collaboration with ARB, designed for overlanding with built-in rock rails, a snorkel, and Old Man Emu suspension. And when you're ready to relax, the cabin has premium available touches like a JBL sound system with a portable Bluetooth speaker and heated/ventilated front seats.

The 2025 Toyota Tacoma is a true all-around performer, ready to take on everything from weekend adventures to daily tasks easily. Its impressive power, smart tech, and off-road capabilities are designed to fit your lifestyle no matter where the road (or trail) takes you. Ready to see it for yourself?
