4th Gen Tacoma (2024+)

Looks like the Tacoma US website is showing MPG data now for the hybrid in some of the config data.

Posted here in case they revert it. The horsepower data looks to be set to "230" for all their vehicles listed.

Can you hack Toyota and get the next generation 4Runner pics? That would be really useful.

 

Well begin the shitshow of complaints for 24mpg for $60,000

 

Begin??? Haven’t we been complaining about that for 900 pages already?

 

22 city mpg on 33s is a HUGE improvement. 16% more mpg on bigger tires

 

22/23/24 mpg for hybrid plus all the the power. Sign me up.

 

Not sure what you are talking about , I'm going by the chart posted saying 61k

 

Yeah, 61k CAD is a steal.

 

I'm going to have to find the ppw to see what I paid for my 21 off road prem

 

Thanks for sharing that!

 

What’s this I keep hearing about Canadian super pigs?

 

Not sure what you mean

Must not be much of a problem if you haven’t heard about them.

 

Oh I heard about that but that was weeks ago. Sounds like the samething when Merica was complaining about the smoke in the summer coming from up here. It's odd because California is always burning and we don't complain about that lol

 

Do I hear a “when pigs fly” reference coming…

 

Maybe they will make Super Bacon!!!

 

That number is very disappointing. Without a significant MPG gain over the gas-only model, the extra cost of the hybrid will be very hard to justify for most prospective buyers.

 

Buyers will get it because of the torque not the mpg.

 

The 4G hybrid leaves me scratching my head a little based on the current benefit we are seeing. But if I look at is as intended for pairing with their new solid state battery tech it makes total sense. The form factor stays the same. It's perfect for a truck application since it's all located before the transmission/transfer case etc. Imagine switching in a battery the same physical size with much higher energy density. Now you have a hybrid with meaningful electric only range, higher electric boost performance with longer duration etc. And you could update the electric motor to take advantage of the additional energy without changing the form factor.

I'm on to you, you clever bastards!

 

That's a PHEV, this is EV assist. Two different worlds.
