Tacoma TRD PreRunner

The folks at Toyota Racing Division create Toyota models that are designed for on and off-road functionality. The TRD PreRunner is one that will give you exceptional performance if you plan to drive your Tacoma primarily on the roads and highways around Marysville. This model is only available in rear-wheel drive to give you the best acceleration possible. It also features an XtraCab, which has two full-size doors in front and a pair of smaller doors in the back. This will provide you with seating for up to five passengers. 

Toyota has equipped the Tacoma TRD PreRunner with an i-FORCE turbocharged I-4 gas engine. This engine is paired with an eight-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission and features a twin-scroll turbocharger. It uses a combination of direct and port fuel injection to deliver 278 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque. This gives you the ability to tow up to 6,500 lbs and carry 1,690 lbs in its six-foot payload bed.

In keeping with the TRD PreRunner's design as a road racer, TRD has equipped the truck with an automatic limited-slip differential. This will prevent slipping by locking the rear axle so the wheels can turn in unison. The truck rides on a set of 17-inch TRD PreRunner alloy wheels wrapped with all-terrain tires, giving it more grip.

The steering wheel of the Tacoma TRD PreRunner comes with leather trim, while the seats have a tasteful fabric upholstery. There is also a rear storage unit in the back to give you more cargo space. Toyota has equipped this model with a Toyota Audio Multimedia system. You can connect your phone using wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing you to make hands-free calls and texts while streaming your favorite music over the truck’s four-speaker audio system.

Tacoma TRD Sport

One of the most versatile of the TRD models is the 2025 Tacoma TRD Sport. This comes with a number of options, letting you decide the payload bed size and drivetrain that works best for you. Whichever one you choose, you get a truck that comes equipped with the same i-FORCE 2.4L turbocharged engine as the TRD PreRunner. Where the PreRunner comes standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission, the TRD Sport also offers an available six-speed manual transmission. Marysville drivers can opt for this transmission to get more precise control over their truck’s performance. 

The TRD Sport features a double cab, giving you four full-size doors and more legroom in the back for your passengers. It also rides on a TRD sport-tuned suspension, designed to handle bumps and ruts you may encounter on the road. Toyota has equipped this model with 18-inch TRD Sport Alloy wheels wrapped with all-season tires. This is in keeping with the truck’s design as an on-road vehicle. Still, you can opt for a 4X4 drivetrain to give you better traction, as well as a five-foot or six-foot payload bed. The key to this Tacoma trim level is letting you choose the features you want out of your truck.

Tacoma TRD Off-Road

The 2025 Tacoma TRD Off-Road is exactly what it says it is: a model designed for folks who want to try their hand at some of the trails outside of Marysville. This model gives most drivers exactly what they are looking for in an off-road midsize pickup truck. 

Just like the Tacoma TRD Sport, the TRD Off-Road comes with an i-FORCE 2.4L turbocharged engine with a choice of an eight-speed automatic transmission and a six-speed manual transmission. However, the Tacoma TRD Off-Road is 4X4 only. This truck features Toyota’s 4WDemand part-time four-wheel drive system. This uses an electronically controlled two-speed transfer case to deliver power to each wheel. The transmission features a Multi-Terrain Select control, allowing you to choose Crawl Control to get the right crawl ratio to get up and over obstacles, as well as Downhill Assist Control to manage torque when your truck is descending a steep slope or obstacle. 

The Toyota Racing Division has given the Tacoma TRD Off-Road a number of specialized features as well. The suspension features Bilstein monotube shocks. There is an electronically controlled locking rear differential, which will prevent slippage when out on the trail. The truck has a composite front skid plate, as well as underbody transfer case and fuel tank protection. This will shield these vital parts from damage caused by debris that you might traverse while off-roading. The TRD Off-Road rides on a set of 17-inch TRD Off-Road alloy wheels that are fitted with all-terrain tires.

The interior has fabric-trimmed seats like the TRD PreRunner and TRD Sport. You can opt to have these heated and even ventilated, which will help during summer and winter months. The Toyota Audio Multimedia system has an eight-inch display and feeds into a six-speaker audio system, so you can make your next soundtrack when you go off-roading.

Tacoma TRD Pro

The most advanced of the four Toyota Racing Division models of the 2025 Tacoma is the TRD Pro, providing you with everything you might want in a midsize pickup truck that gives you the best of both worlds. The Tacoma TRD Pro combines on-road speed and acceleration with off-road capabilities. 

The engine is a 2.4L i-FORCE MAX turbocharged I-4 paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. This is a hybrid powertrain, with an electric motor giving this vehicle a serious boost. The combined powertrain delivers an impressive 326 hp and 465 lb-ft of torque, giving you solid speed and acceleration on and off the road. This engine is also available as an option on the TRD Pro and TRD Sport.

Like the Tacoma TRD Off-Road, the TRD Pro features the 4WDEmand drivetrain and an electronically controlled locking rear differential. The Multi-Terrain Select allows you to choose the right setting for the terrain you encounter. Toyota adds a Stabilizer Disconnect Mechanism, allowing you to disconnect the sway bar, giving you improved wheel travel and ride comfort. The suspension on the TRD Pro features 2.5-inch FOX Internal Bypass QS3 shocks, designed to handle some of the roughest terrain when off-roading. The truck rides on TRD Pro black alloy wheels with a set of Goodyear Territory tires.

Toyota has pulled out all of the stops on the Tacoma TRD Pro’s interior. The seats feature SofTex upholstery with contrast stitching and technical-camo-pattern inserts. These are quite stylish and comfortable as well. The front row features IsoDynamic Performance seats that give you the support you need when pushing your TRD Pro to the limits of off-roading. You and your passengers will also be entertained by the Toyota Audio Multimedia with a 14-inch display. Simply connect your phones and begin streaming your favorite music over the ten-speaker JBL audio system. This includes a subwoofer for the bass tones and a JBL FLEX portable Bluetooth speaker, so you can even listen to your music when you are outside of your truck. Whether you use this to go camping or to pick up some great antiques when shopping downtown in Marysville, the Tacoma TRD Pro is the midsize truck to choose if you want to have everything you desire.
