How the Tacoma Compares With Toyota’s Lineup

Pricing, power, fuel economy, towing capacity, drivetrain, and truck size all shape the choice between Toyota pickups. The 2013 Toyota Tacoma starts at $20,415, and MSRP excludes tax, title, registration and dealer fees.

The 2013 Toyota Tundra starts at $29,055, compared with the Tacoma’s $20,415 starting MSRP. The Tundra produces 381 hp, returns 13 city / 18 highway MPG, and can tow 10,000 lbs, while the Tacoma ranges from 159 to 236 hp, 16 to 21 city MPG, 21 to 25 highway MPG, and 3,500 to 6,400 lbs of towing; the Tundra suits buyers seeking greater full-size towing, while the Tacoma favors shoppers focused on a smaller pickup and lower starting price. Both figures identify rear-wheel-drive regular-unleaded configurations.

Specifications and Configuration

The 2013 Toyota Tacoma seats 4–5 people and is offered in Access Cab and Double Cab body styles. Across its five trims, engine choices range from a 2.7-liter inline four-cylinder to a 4.0-liter V6, with horsepower from 159 to 236 hp and torque from 180 to 266 lb-ft.

Depending on trim, the Tacoma uses rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive and a manual or automatic transmission with 4, 5, or 6 speeds. Its maximum towing range is 3,500 to 6,400 lbs, fuel capacity is 21.1 gallons, and regular unleaded fuel is used.

The Tacoma measures 208.1 inches long and 72.2 to 74.6 inches wide, with height ranging from 65.6 to 70.1 inches and a 127.4-inch wheelbase. Curb weight ranges from 3,560 to 4,155 lbs, while peak power arrives at 5,200 rpm and peak torque arrives at 3,800 to 4,000 rpm.

What to Weigh Before Buying

Start with the work the truck needs to do. The Tacoma’s trim range spans 3,500 to 6,400 lbs of maximum towing, while drivetrain, cab style, transmission, engine size, and fuel economy vary by configuration.

Consider whether rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive fits the intended use, then compare the compact pickup’s dimensions and seating needs with the larger towing focus of the Tundra. A careful trim comparison can clarify whether lower starting cost, V6 output, towing capacity, or a particular cab and transmission matters most.
