What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota Tacoma?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base truck is spartan, while higher trims add leather upholstery, soft-touch materials, heated front seats, and more distinctive off-road hardware. If you want the most rugged version, the TRD Pro adds underbody skid pads, a TRD-tuned suspension, a locking rear differential, 16-inch alloy wheels, a TRD sport exhaust, and unique exterior details.
• Powertrain: In Canada, you get the 3.5-litre V6 with 278 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic or available six-speed manual. Standard four-wheel drive is included, and the truck is not especially quick.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert, and automatic high beams. Higher trims can add blind-spot monitoring, rear- and side parking distance sensors, and a surround-view camera, but lane-keeping assist and rear automatic emergency braking are not included.
• Infotainment: Base trims use a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims get an 8-inch unit. All versions include Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM satellite radio, and wireless charging is available on higher trims.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada estimates 13.0 L/100 km in city driving, 10.5 L/100 km on the highway, and 11.9 L/100 km combined. Manual-transmission models are rated at 13.8/11.4/12.7 L/100 km, while TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro versions rise slightly to 13.8/11.7/12.9 L/100 km.

Which 2023 Toyota Tacoma trim should I buy?

The 2023 Toyota Tacoma is offered in 6 trim levels: base standard package, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, Trail Special Edition, and Nightshade Edition.

Here's the short version:

• base standard package: This is the simplest Tacoma, and it makes sense if you want the lowest entry point and can live without the extra comfort and off-road equipment found higher up the range.
• SR5: This is the sensible step up if you want a more rounded everyday truck without jumping into the more specialised trims.
• TRD Sport: Choose this if you want a more style- and road-focused middle ground with more equipment than the lower trims.
• TRD Off-Road: This is the best-value choice for many shoppers because it adds meaningful capability without going all the way to the most expensive model.
• Trail Special Edition: Pick this if you want a more distinctive Tacoma with a specific adventure-oriented flavour.
• Nightshade Edition: This suits you if appearance matters most and you want a more upscale-looking Tacoma.

The TRD Pro is the most extreme off-road choice, with the strongest hardware and the most specialised character in the lineup.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Toyota Tacoma?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully.

• Deal availability: 32.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 428 listings available.

What is the 2023 Toyota Tacoma's resale value?

The current average of $48,138 CAD sits slightly below last year's $50,380 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the Tacoma is still in demand, but buyers have a bit more leverage than they did a year ago. For a future seller, that means you may not see the same peak pricing as before, especially if your truck is not in a sought-after trim or condition.

Even so, the Tacoma’s reputation for reliability and its broad appeal help support long-term value. Well-kept examples should remain easier to move than many rivals, particularly if they have the right equipment and a clean history.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.27/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Toyota Tacoma safe?

The 2023 Toyota Tacoma was not awarded a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and it earns a four-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in side-impact tests and lower marks in frontal crash and rollover tests.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert, and automatic high beams. Higher trims can also add blind-spot monitoring, rear- and side parking distance sensors, and a surround-view camera.

The main safety caveat is that the Tacoma does not include lane-keeping assist or rear automatic emergency braking, and its crash-test results trail the best performers in the segment.

Should I buy a 2023 Toyota Tacoma or consider a different year?
