Plot twist, Toyota is now making Transformers!!!
TRD Pro Hybrid…I would venture price tag will hit $60k easy.
Edit: The current model already costs that much
$70k on the hybrid?

Supposedly the base model is going to get the Turbo 4 that the highlander uses. But the highlander only gets 26mpg highway with that engine. If Toyota doesn't make their new trucks cheaper than their current ones, people are just going to bite the bullet and buy American instead and deal with the all the recalls. Or at least wait until a few years pass after they work the bugs out (if any) that these new gen models might have.

I was surprised this morning when Autoline reported that Toyota LOST a half billion in the USA market in Q1. That really shocked me, because Toyota is the icon of stability. You can't put too much credence in profit-loss though, because all kinds of accounting tricks factor in. For example are they investing heavily in BEV - which would suck up billions.
It doesn't matter what the Tacoma costs. This is the midsize best seller by a wide margin. A hybrid Tacoma will just pour fuel on the sales fire, at any price. I notice they slowed down last year - I'll wager because everyone knew that a new Tacoma was coming. But I wonder if the Maverick took a bite too? No clue here, just wondering.

Or Tailformers?
$10 says the interior is still smaller than the compact Maverick.
I have no interest in Toyotas. I have always disliked their looks since the late 90s and their so called reliability has not been what I have personally witnessed.

With ADM, that or more would not surprise me. Maybe it'll be my next, next truck.TRD Pro Hybrid…I would venture price tag will hit $60k easy.

SURPRISE! The competitor to the ranger raptor isn’t $20k. This forum is oddly defensive lol.

I'm getting a lot of Tundra vibes like I predicted. Except for the front. Thankfully it doesn't have that giant gaping grille that the Tundra has which looks awful! Although it was time for a redesign for the aging Tacoma, it's still not gonna convince me to stop everything and go buy one. I'll still happily enjoy my Maverick which will be roomier inside, have most of the options the Tacoma has, and will be significantly cheaper to buy/maintain. I will look at one in person just for curiosity's sake, nothing more.
I looked up actual trucks on the lot in my area, not whatever pleasantry Toyota has on their website. The title of the thread starts with the words Competition News - this obviously won’t be in the same ballpark. Nothing defensive about it, it’s just going to flat out be expensive. Like all Tacomas. Not a competitor.
Those trucks have options or have market adjustments… just like the maverick.
mavericks in many areas have $10k markups. Does that make it a 32k base vehicle? No, it doesn’t. That doesn’t even include any options.
just pointing out that stating “a Trd pro is $60k!” is no more true than “a maverick is $40k!”
Let the market bear what it will.
