When it comes to exteriors, you shouldn’t expect any radical changes. The dimensions of both petrol and diesel models will be the same. However, it’s still possible that the truck will acquire a few distinguishable features. Interestingly, Toyota seems to have found its own path in the truck world and not to follow the tendency to install lightweight chassis. Instead, the 2019 Toyota Tacoma will have a heavier frame, which, however, won’t negatively impact the ride. All in all, it’s Ford Ranger’s serious rival in making!4of 5

Toyota took complaints about the previous model’s tendency to drag seriously. For its new model, the company developed better aerodynamic shape solutions. As for the powertrain, Toyota decided to steer clear from the image of its trucks being not enough powerful. To fix it, the Japanese manufacturer is going to offer a wider range of engines with ‘meaty’ options available. All in all, Toyota’s all in for surprising customers with excellent off-road skills.
