63 Toyota Tacoma Statistics: Sales, Performance, Capability and Safety Data

Toyota Tacoma statistics span market position, model specifications, utility ratings and controlled safety tests. The figures below identify the model year, geography, configuration or test vehicle so that sales claims, estimates and laboratory measurements are not mistaken for one another.

Key Toyota Tacoma Statistics

The most broadly useful figures include:

  • In 2024, Toyota reported 2,332,623 vehicles sold by TMNA in the United States, a company-wide total rather than a Tacoma-only count.
  • In 2024, TMNA U.S. sales increased 3.7% by volume from 2023, according to Toyota’s reported comparison.
  • In 2024, 1,006,461 electrified vehicles represented 43.1% of TMNA U.S. sales, a company-wide measure rather than a Tacoma-specific result.
  • In 2024, Tacoma ranked as America’s number-one small pickup for the 20th consecutive year, according to Toyota’s market-position statement.
  • In 2023, Toyota reported 2,248,477 TMNA vehicles sold in the United States, not Tacoma-only sales.

Toyota’s public sales releases combine Tacoma’s market-position statements with TMNA-wide totals. Those totals provide company context, but they are not Tacoma unit sales or independent audited market-share calculations.

Period Toyota-reported measure Geography or scope
2024 2,332,623 vehicles TMNA, United States
2024 vs. 2023 3.7% increase by volume TMNA, United States
2023 2,248,477 vehicles TMNA, United States
2023 vs. 2022 6.6% increase by volume TMNA, United States

Toyota reported that Tacoma was the number-one small pickup in America for the 20th consecutive year in 2024, following 19 consecutive years in 2023, 18 in 2022 and 17 in 2021. These are Toyota-reported market-position claims; the releases do not supply a Tacoma unit total for each statement.

The 2020 comparison was also expressed as a ratio rather than a unit count: Toyota said Tacoma outsold its nearest two competitors by more than two-to-one in the U.S. mid-size pickup market. The 2022 statement appears in the December 2022 and Year-End 2022 Sales Conference transcript, while the 2021 and 2020 claims appear in Toyota’s 2021 Tacoma leadership release.

Toyota Tacoma Engine, Horsepower and Torque Data

The 2026 figures distinguish the hybrid i-FORCE MAX from listed turbo configurations. Horsepower and torque are maximum advertised or configuration-specific outputs, so they should not be treated as one universal rating for every Tacoma.

2026 powertrain or configuration Horsepower Torque
i-FORCE MAX hybrid 326 hp 465 lb-ft
i-FORCE turbo, listed specification 278 hp at 6,000 rpm 317 lb-ft at 1,700 rpm
Listed turbo configuration 270 hp at 5,400 rpm 310 lb-ft at 2,800 rpm

The 2026 i-FORCE MAX figures come from The 2026 Toyota Tacoma: Adventure Awaits. The trim-level figures and engine speeds come from 2026 Toyota Tacoma Full Specs.

For comparison, the 2024 Tacoma overview lists 278 hp for the standard powertrain and 465 lb-ft for the i-FORCE MAX powertrain. That model-year overview is a separate source and should not be merged into a single all-years specification.

Toyota Tacoma Fuel-Economy and Drivetrain Statistics

Fuel economy varies materially by model year, engine, transmission and driven wheels. EPA figures and Toyota brochure estimates are configuration-specific; actual fuel economy can vary with tires, weather, driving style and load.

Model year and configuration City Highway Combined or other data
2026 i-FORCE MAX — — EPA-estimated 23 mpg combined
2026 selected i-FORCE model — 26 mpg EPA-estimated highway
2023 4-cylinder automatic 4×2 20 mpg 23 mpg Configuration-specific estimate
2023 4-cylinder automatic 4×4 19 mpg 22 mpg Configuration-specific estimate
2023 V6 manual 4×4 17 mpg 21 mpg Configuration-specific estimate
2023 V6 automatic 4×2 19 mpg 24 mpg Configuration-specific estimate
2023 V6 automatic 4×4 18 mpg 22 mpg Configuration-specific estimate

The 2026 ratings and transmission availability are documented in The 2026 Toyota Tacoma: Adventure Awaits, while the 2023 table is from Tacoma Specifications (2023 eBrochure).

The 2023 brochure lists a 21.1-gallon fuel tank across its tabulated configurations. The 2026 i-FORCE MAX uses an 8-speed automatic transmission, and listed i-FORCE configurations can use a 6-speed intelligent manual transmission.

Toyota’s 2026 mechanical specification also lists gear ratios for selected configurations: 4.79:1 first and 2.42:1 second for one automatic configuration, and 4.41:1 first and 2.81:1 second for the listed manual configuration. These are mechanical specifications, not fuel-economy outcomes.

Toyota Tacoma Towing, Payload and Bed-Capacity Data

Towing and payload are separate ratings. Maximum values depend on configuration and equipment, while real limits also depend on occupants, cargo and trailer setup.

Model year or source Towing Payload Scope
2026 6,500 lb maximum 1,705 lb maximum Maximum-rated configuration
2025 fleet guide — 1,709 lb available Configuration-specific fleet maximum
2024 i-FORCE MAX group 6,400–6,500 lb 1,380–1,705 lb Specified powertrain group
2024 standard-powertrain group 6,400–6,500 lb 1,230–1,460 lb Specified powertrain group
2023 V6 automatic long-bed 4×2 6,600 lb — Configuration-specific
2023 V6 automatic long-bed 4×4 6,400 lb — Configuration-specific

The 2026 maximums are from The 2026 Toyota Tacoma: Adventure Awaits. The 2024 ranges and 2025 fleet figure are from Overview | MY24 Toyota Tacoma, and the 2023 figures are from the Tacoma Specifications (2023 eBrochure).

The 2023 brochure lists payload of 1,685 lb for listed 4-cylinder automatic 4×2 configurations and 1,445 lb for listed 4-cylinder automatic 4×4 configurations. Those values demonstrate why a Tacoma’s exact drivetrain and body configuration matter when comparing utility ratings.

Toyota Tacoma Configuration, Dimensions and Equipment Statistics

Toyota’s 2021 configuration count shows how much variation can exist within one model line. The count combined 2 powertrains, 2 cab styles, 2 wheelbases and 6 model grades into 33 stated configurations.

For the 2024 model year, Tacoma offered 5-foot or 6-foot bed lengths, with availability depending on cab and configuration. The 2024 overview and equipment information are reported in The 2026 Toyota Tacoma: Adventure Awaits and Toyota Motor North America Reports 2023 U.S. Sales Results; the 2021 configuration count is in 2021 Toyota Tacoma Poised to Keep Leadership Role While Rolling out New Special Editions.

Selected 2024 equipment statistics include an available 14-inch touchscreen and an available JBL audio system with 10 speakers. The model line used either an 8-speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission, with availability varying by powertrain and trim.

Toyota Tacoma Safety-Test Statistics and Driver Assistance

The following results come from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s controlled 2024 test of a Tacoma SR5 crew cab 4WD. They are laboratory measurements and controlled crash-prevention runs, not observed collision or injury rates.

IIHS measure Result Test scope
Driver head HIC-15 107 Updated side test
Rear-passenger head HIC-15 96 Updated side test
Driver torso maximum deflection 18 mm Instrumented test
Rear-passenger torso maximum deflection 21 mm Instrumented test
Driver-side B-pillar intrusion 23.0 cm short of seat centerline Negative IIHS intrusion convention
Cabin background sound pressure 51 dB at 24 km/h Test-specific acoustic measure
Audible seat-belt signal 73 dB at 24 km/h Test-specific acoustic measure

The detailed measurements are from 2024 Toyota Tacoma Crew Cab IIHS Ratings. In the updated side test, IIHS recorded driver head HIC-15 of 107 and rear-passenger head HIC-15 of 96, along with the torso and intrusion results shown above.

For crash avoidance, the Tacoma avoided collision in all six IIHS vehicle-to-vehicle passenger-car runs at 31, 37 and 43 mph, using centered and off-center paths. It also avoided collision in all six vehicle-to-motorcycle runs at those speeds and path positions; these successful runs describe a controlled test protocol rather than a real-world success rate.

The test vehicle had 2 rear seating positions with complete LATCH hardware and 1 additional rear seating position with a tether anchor only. IIHS also measured cabin background sound pressure at 51 dB and the audible seat-belt signal at 73 dB at 24 km/h, both test-specific acoustic observations.
