The highly-popular Toyota Tacoma pickup truck was introduced in 1995 and redesigned for the 2005 model year. Solid gas mileage ratings are a proven factor in the Tacoma’s appeal. Currently the best-selling compact pickup truck in America, the 2WD Tacoma delivers as many as 25 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the 4-cylinder engine.
The 2008 Toyota Tacoma is available with two engines: a DOHC 2.7-liter 4-cylinder rated at 159 horsepower (HP) and a DOHC 4.0-liter V-6 rated at 236 HP. A diesel engine is not currently available in the Tacoma here in the States. It’s a different story overseas, where a torque-filled 3.0-liter DOHC turbo-diesel inline four can be found under the hood of the Toyota HiLux pickup. (Outside of the United States, the Tacoma is known as the HiLux.)

Note: the EPA tweaked their testing procedure, starting with the 2008 model year, with the end result being that the 2008 MPG estimates are now lower than previous years. As always, YMMV.

[…] Toyota Tacoma 4WD […]
It’s too bad that the Toyota Tacoma will never get the 3.0 Liter Diesel I-4 Engine that’s in the Toyota HiLux at all. Both the Toyota Tacoma and the Toyota Hilux come in gasoline Engines in both 2.7 Liter I-4 and 4.0 Liter V-6 Engines. Toyota Tacoma in the US and Toyota Hilux in Australia. I know that the emission standards are very strict when it comes to Diesel Engines and it’s too bad that the Toyota Hilux 3.0 I-4 Diesel will never get into the US at all and Toyota in the US is still behind in Diesel Engine Technology. Toyota in Austalia is ahead of the US in Diesel Technology and that to me is a very big disappointment.
