The 2024 Toyota Tacoma vs. the 2024 Ford Ranger
Both the 2024 Toyota Tacoma and the 2024 Ford Ranger are midsize pickup trucks with impressive off-road capability, innovative technology features, and a variety of powertrain options. Compare the following features to see why the Toyota Tacoma stands out from the Ford Ranger.
2024 Toyota Tacoma
Toyota has given the 2024 Tacoma an exterior redesign, powerful engine options that include a hybrid version, and a new exciting trim level.
Price
According to Kelley Blue Book, the price for the 2024 Tacoma will start at about $29,000. Top-tier trims and additional optional equipment will raise the price.
Trim Options
Toyota offers the Tacoma in eight trims: the base SR, SR5, TRD PreRunner, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, Limited, the brand-new off-road-ready Trailhunter, and the top-tier TRD Pro. Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the equipment that comes with the 2024 Tacoma Trailhunter. You can take this trim directly from the showroom to rugged off-road trails with its integrated equipment from ARB, Old Man Emu, and Rigid Industries.
Performance
The 2024 Tacoma has four engine options depending on the trim, including a new hybrid engine. All trims have an i-FORCE turbocharged 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine with various horsepower and torque ratings. When you choose the 2.4-liter hybrid engine, it has an output of 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. All engines mate with an eight-speed automatic transmission and have the option of a six-speed manual transmission.
Depending on the trim, the Tacoma comes with rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, and when properly equipped, the Tacoma can tow up to 6,500 pounds.

The Tacoma comes with a two-door XtraCab configuration with a 5-foot bed or the Double Cab with four doors and a 5- or 6-foot bed.
Interior Design
Depending on the cab configuration, two to five people fit inside the Tacoma. Toyota has increased the interior storage space of the 2024 Tacoma with fold-flat rear seat backs that create a level cargo area. You can store small personal items, such as cell phones and sunglasses, on the shelf built into the instrument panel.
Color Choices
You have 10 color choices with the Tacoma — six that carry over from the previous generation, including Blue Crush Metallic and Solar Octane, and four new ones: Underground, Supersonic Red, Bronze Oxide, and Terra.
