A Toyota of Orlando Guide to the 2024 Tacoma Engine

You probably know by now that the 2024 Toyota Tacoma has been announced, and Taco enthusiasts couldn’t be more excited! This iconic new model will be packed with new performance features, technology, style, and more. As we patiently wait for its arrival, Orlando Toyota is here with a little more info on the 2024 Tacoma engine. 

2024 Toyota Tacoma Engine Options

The 2024 Toyota Tacoma will offer two different engine options to choose from. Here’s what to expect:

The 2.4L turbocharged 4-cylinder will offer 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft torque. For the SR model, this 2024 Tacoma engine offers 228 horsepower and 243 lb-ft torque. 

• Non-SR models pair this engine with an electronically-controlled, 8-speed automatic transmission with intelligence. 
• The manual transmission gets 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft torque. You will still be able to obtain a six-speed manual transmission with auto rev-matching and anti-stall technology. 

The i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain is actually the most powerful powertrain available for the Toyota Tacoma. This option has a 2.4L engine with a 48-hp electric motor and an 8-speed transmission - producing 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft torque. 

• This 2024 Tacoma engine option offers 2x the torque output of the 2023 Tacoma V6 engine and ascends an 8% interstate grade without needing to downshift. 
• You can get this powertrain on the TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, Limited, TRD PRO and Trailhunter models. 

The 2024 Tacoma 0-60 mph time

A big question our Toyota of Orlando team has been getting is how quick can the 2024 Toyota Tacoma get from 0 - 60 mph? We want to know just as much as you do, but we don’t have an exact answer just yet. What we can tell you is the i-FORCE MAX engine will ensure that the 2024 Tacoma 0-60 time will be very impressive. The 2023 Toyota Tundra features a 3.4L Twin Turbo V6 engine, and it gets from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds. So, with 465 lb-ft torque, the 2024 Tacoma should be in that range if not faster. 

The 2024 Tacoma MPG estimates

Another burning question is about the 2024 Tacoma MPG estimates, and unfortunately we don’t have a lot of info on this yet either. We’re basing our predictions off the Toyota Tundra, so we’ll give you some insight into what we’re thinking here at Orlando Toyota. 

Introducing the i-FORCE MAX engine to the Tundra boosted its fuel efficiency up to 20/24 mpg. This isn’t as impressive as other Toyota vehicles such as the Prius, but obviously it's better than the previous V8 engine. The V6 engine in current Toyota Tacomas gets 18/22 mpg, and we think the i-FORCE MAX engine will definitely give the new model a boost in efficiency.
