It’s been so exciting to delve into everything about the newly redesigned 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Toyota fans all over are excited about this revamp because Toyota has delivered more power, an updated cabin interior, and an elevated rugged exterior look with versatility for every kind of truck driver. Toyota of Clermont experts are discussing the 2024 Toyota Tacoma engine options and what you can expect. 


Which engine is in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma?

The 2024 Tacoma engine has come up with some major changes from the previous generations. The 2024 Toyota Tacoma comes equipped with two different types of engines: a 2.4L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and an i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain. Let’s get into the nitty gritty details of these engines. 

The 2.4L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine

Let’s discuss the base model engine, the 2.4L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. This new turbocharged engine is paired with the standard eight-speed automatic transmission. Let’s get into the power details. 

  • The 2.4L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine is available on the SR model with 228 horsepower and 243 ln-ft torque on the SR model. 
  • The higher trim levels from the SR, like the SR5, 2024 Tacoma increase from there to 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft torque. 
  • Also, the manual transmission is still available for the 2024 Tacoma with a six-speed manual transmission with automatic rev-matching, 270 horsepower, and 310 lb-ft torque. 

The i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain

The i-Force Max is also in the 2023 Toyota Crown and Toyota Grand Highlander, but it’s entirely different from what’s in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. This hybrid system is built for everything that encompasses a truck. It’s built for power, off-roading capabilities, and carrying heavy loads. 

The new hybrid powertrain of the new midsize truck: hybrid is optional on mid-level Tacomas and standard on higher trims like the TRD Pro and new Trailhunter trim both available in Clermont, Florida. The Tacoma new engine system pairs a single large electric motor between the engine and conventional eight-speed automatic transmission. let’s get into the power specs on this Clermont Toyota engine. You can find this engine in the new special edition 2024 Tacoma Trailhunter. Let’s look into the horsepower and torque on this ride: 

  • 326 horsepower
  • 465 lb-ft torque – increased over 75% compared to the previous models’ optional 3.50-liter V-6 that received 265 lb-ft of torque. 

What’s the 2024 Tacoma MPG?

Well, the 2024 Tacoma was recently announced back in May, so it’s only been a couple of months since its official release. And Toyota likes to keep some things under wraps – to add to the suspense. The new and improved i-FORCE MAX hybrid engine’s MPG is one of those aspects. So, this is a long way of saying that we don’t know what the 2024 Tacoma MPG is right now, however, we are speculating based on the previous redesigns with the hybrid engines and amazing torque that it will be a bump up of improvement from the current V6 option with 18/22 MPG. So, the 2024 Tacoma’s mpg estimates to be higher than the previous 18/22 MPG with the new powerful Clermont Toyota hybrid engine. We estimate this because more torque is associated with better performance and MPG. 

What is the 2024 Tacoma 0-60 time?

We don’t know right now what the 2024 Tacoma 0-60 time is exactly. Again, there are some aspects of the 2024 Tacoma that no one quite knows right now, however, we do know some things. We know that the i-FORCE MAX engine will give an impressive 2024 Tacoma 0-60 time because there’s no ignoring the 465-lb-ft of torque on this ride. The more torque in any Clermont Toyota, the faster it gets from 0-60. That’s because more torque can indicate a few things, one is making a car accelerate faster.
