As the best-selling midsize pickup in the United States for more than a decade, the Toyota Tacoma clearly has a lot to offer. The pickup’s TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro trims will excite off-roading enthusiasts thanks to their unique suspension tuning, skid plates, and locking rear differential. With a base MSRP of $26,700, the 2022 Toyota Tacoma puts its legendary prowess, capabilities, and respectable road manners within reach for area drivers. 

Engine Options 

It’s not unusual for drivers to ask us about the engines that are available within the Toyota Tacoma lineup when they contact our Toyota dealership near Los Angeles, CA. The 2022 Toyota Tacoma is available with two engines. 

A standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 159 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque powers the Toyota Tacoma SR and SR5 models. Optional on those models and standard on the truck’s remaining trims is a 3.5-liter V6 engine that generates 278 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque.  

A six-speed automatic transmission is standard in pickups with the base engine while the V6 engine can be paired with either a six-speed automatic transmission or a six-speed manual transmission. 

Active Safety Equipment 

New Toyota models are outfitted with sought-after equipment, and the same goes for the oft off-road-oriented Toyota Tacoma. One of the truck’s most laudable advanced safety and driver-assistive features is its forward collision warning and intervention system. 

That system proactively detects instances when a frontal collision is imminent. The moment the feature senses an immediate threat, it emits a warning. If you don’t react to the alert quickly enough, the system will automatically apply your brakes to try to prevent an accident from occurring.
