Why it stands out

The 2016 Toyota Tacoma stands out as a mid-size truck that blends Toyota’s long-standing reputation for durability with a more modern feature set than earlier Tacomas. It debuted for the 2016 model year, but it was not a full clean-sheet redesign; Toyota kept much of the previous truck’s mechanical and structural hardware while adding new systems and a major technology upgrade. That makes it appealing to buyers who want a proven pickup with updated equipment rather than a radically different formula.

For this model year, the Tacoma came standard with a 2.7-litre four-cylinder engine, while the available 3.5-litre V6 was the more common and satisfying choice. A six-speed automatic transmission sent power to the rear wheels or available four-wheel drive, and the manual-transmission story had already narrowed by this point, with the six-speed manual limited to specific V6 off-road and sport configurations. The truck also offered Access Cab and Double Cab body styles, five-foot and six-foot beds, and a range of trims that included off-road-focused versions and the Limited for more comfort-oriented buyers.

The 2016 Tacoma’s biggest strengths are its off-road capability, strong reliability record, and broad availability of safety and convenience features. Toyota Safety Sense became standard in 2018, so that broader suite of standard driver aids does not apply to this model year, but the Tacoma was already known for offering useful equipment such as a backup camera and available infotainment upgrades. Its main drawbacks are familiar ones: the base engine is underwhelming, the crew cab is cramped, and the truck can be expensive compared with rivals. Still, for shoppers who value toughness, resale strength, and a truck that can handle both daily use and trail duty, the 2016 Tacoma remains distinctive.
