2024 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Gets Up to 25 MPG in Official Testing

The 2024 Toyota Tacoma is poised to be the most efficient pickup truck in its class with its available hybrid drivetrain. According to the Canadian government, it hits that mark by netting up to 25 miles per gallon. If you know anything about the old Tacoma, or midsize pickups in general, you'll recognize that's pretty solid.

While the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency hasn't published its stats for the 2024 Tacoma, a user of 4thGenTacoma.com discovered that mileage figures are already available from Natural Resources Canada. They cover only four-wheel-drive models of the Tacoma, which will also be available with rear-wheel drive, but they do cover both the eight-speed automatic and six-speed manual transmissions. While the database doesn't differentiate between hybrid and pure combustion drivetrains, I'll leave you to guess how else a four-wheel-drive pickup achieves 25 mpg.

That's right—the new Tacoma is rated as high as 25 mpg highway with the automatic, which gets 19 mpg city and 21 combined. That's for what the site refers to as the "3-mode" model, as opposed to a "2-mode" and one not labeled as either. It's unclear what the difference between the former two is, with the "2-mode" automatic getting just 23 mpg highway, though we know the last of them is the manual version. It gets just 18 mpg city, 23 highway, and 20 combined. These figures match the window stickers of U.S. models according to the forum user who dug them up, so they're believed to be accurate to the U.S. market.
