If there is an upcoming 2024 ev Tacoma, it would be interesting. Toyota has introduced concept vehicles representing their next gen of electric rides recently. One of them looks like a (mid size) truck that looks just the same as Tacoma. Unfortunately, Toyota hasn’t said anything about 2024 ev Tacoma, even confirming whether it is going to be Tacoma EV or not, or whether it is going to be available for the US market. But it can be a promising (and also promising) prospect.

The Upcoming Update Plan
The Tacoma is currently available only as a gas truck. It even doesn’t offer diesel unit; unlike other competitors (such as Chevrolet Colorado). It doesn’t have fuel economy perks, which are typically available on smaller vehicles, such as Ford Maverick. It’s true that Toyota has made a heavy investment in hydrogen fuel cell (electric) rides, but it’s quite late for electric rides in this era.
It shouldn’t be surprising if the next gen Tacoma would be coming with electrification, and the upcoming 2024 ev Tacoma would be completely different from the past generations. The upcoming 2024 ev Tacoma pickup would be paired with bZ (Beyond Zero), which is the electric vehicles family. Only as reference, Tundra is having a hybrid line in their collection for the first time. It is called i-FORCE MAX for the 2024 ev Tacoma model. However, it’s unclear whether Tacoma will follow suit. Because there is only a little detail about the upcoming Tacoma, it remains unclear whether it would be launched as the 2023 model or the 2024 one.
There have been many rumors concerning 2024 ev Tacoma redesigned plan. It may be exciting, but the information is very limited and scarce. Not to mention that Toyota is very closed and hush-hush about it. Some people predict that the upcoming 2024 ev Tacoma may be sharing similar platform with the Tundra. It can seriously save a lot of money for the development cost. But then again, we aren’t sure about it until now.
The Construction
The new 2024 ev Tacoma electric would be constructed by using TNGA-F platform, the new 2024 ev Tacoma bodywork developed by Toyota. The same construction is implemented by the Tundra. It will be used on the upcoming 4Runner and Sequoia SUVs. The Tacoma will replace the rear suspension (the leaf-spring type) configuration with the coil springs, which are believed to boost the road modes significantly. Its toughest competitors, Ford and Chevrolet, still use the leaf-spring type.
If the production goes as planned, it’s possible that Tacoma’s appearance would be inspired by the Tundra. There is TRD Pro model illustration, design inspirations are clear from the taillights, headlights, and grille design.
Powertrain and Performance
It’s possible that the Tacoma would be using four-cylinder turbocharged unit. There is also an optional V6 unit with 3.5 liter capacity, delivering 278 hp. Toyota is thinking about including a unit with 2.4 liter capacity, generating 275 hp for Lexus NX350. It’s possible that hybrid system is available for the Tundra, which means that it would be likely available for Tacoma. The standard transmission would be automatic, but hopefully there is manual gearbox for the upcoming Tacoma. We should wait further for 2024 ev Tacoma updates.
