The 2020 Toyota Tacoma gets some enticing updates in the tech and features department for this year. That’s not quite enough to edge out competitors, however, so we give it 7 out of 10 here. (Read more about how we rate cars.)
For 2020, the refreshed Tacoma adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, as well as Amazon Alexa, to go along with a new standard 7.0-inch touchscreen for infotainment. That’s a welcome addition and may help win over some buyers in a very competitive segment.
Throughout the rest of the range, the 2020 Tacoma gets credit for its many trim levels and configurations, ranging from work-ready SR to trail-tested TRD Pro, though the best value lies somewhere in between.
SR models get some updates for 2020 including a new grille and taillight design, an optional LED bed lamp, and the 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
The mid-tier SR5 represents the best value and gets a new 16-inch wheel design to go along with updated styling and interior fabric. LED daytime running lights and bed lights are optional.
TRD Sport models get 17-inch wheels and available LED headlights as well as an optional panoramic camera system.
The TRD Off Road trim offers all the off-road prowess most buyers will need with Bilstein shocks, a locking rear differential, hill-descent control, and several terrain traction control modes, and adds LED fog lights, keyless entry, and optional LED headlights for 2020. The Tacoma TRD Off Road is the trim we’d buy for its balance between value and four-wheeling ability.
Those looking for a more luxury-oriented Tacoma will want the Limited model, which features 18-inch wheels, standard LED headlamps, and a surround-view camera system.
Finally, the TRD Pro is the most hardcore Tacoma, featuring special black 16-inch wheels and blacked-out trim pieces, a new Army Green color, a 10-way power driver’s seat, and an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The TRD Pro also gets the new surround-view camera system with an additional camera underneath the truck to help avoid unseen obstacles on the trail.
