For 2020, Toyota’s midsize Tacoma sees some small but significant upgrades including Smartphone connectivity, a new-look grille and headlamps as well as a power-adjusted driver’s seat for a starting price of what we can expect to be around $26,000 for the base two-wheel drive SR trim.
What’s different about the exterior of the 2020 Toyota Tacoma?
The front fascia receives a new grille with designs tailored to each different trim level. New LED day-running headlamps frame the grille and c-shaped sequential turn signals finish off the complete look.
At the rear, the Tacoma gets a new taillight set up and on models such as the TRD Pro, additional features like Rigid Industry LED fog lights, and black-insert taillights give each trim unique personality. A 16-inch wheel color update in dark satin is also now available.
Is there anything new inside the cabin of the 2020 Toyota Tacoma?
While the base SR has a 7-inch touchscreen, the SR5 model and above get a new 8-inch display. Smartphone connectivity is the big news inside the Tacoma. Toyota is a holdout no more for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which are now both standard across all trim levels. Amazon’s Alexa is also available.
The TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road models have an optional 6-speaker JBL premium audio system that adds dynamic navigation, which comes standard on Limited and TRD Pro.
