(TORONTO, ON. – August 25, 2014) Whether it’s for work or for fun, the 2015 Toyota Tacoma is the pick-up truck that does more. Tacoma is Canada’s top-selling compact pick-up truck, and with eight models offering a choice of drivetrains, transmissions, cab and bed sizes – plus a broad choice of available upgrade packages – there’s a Toyota Tacoma for every need.
“We offer 23 possible configurations of our multiple award-winning Toyota Tacoma – making it easy for Canadians to find the truck that suits their needs, tastes and budget,” noted Larry Hutchinson, Vice President of Toyota Canada Inc. “Regardless of the configuration, Canadians can shop for a Toyota pick-up truck in confidence – knowing that every 2015 Tacoma features the versatility and performance that pick-up truck fans demand… the comfort, style and efficiency that they love… and the safety and dependability that they expect from Toyota.”
Every Tacoma compact pick-up comes standard equipped with sporty performance and surprising versatility – backed by Toyota’s reputation for building trucks that conquer the toughest weather and driving conditions on the planet. The Tacoma’s DNA has garnered it numerous quality and value awards*, including:
Starting with this rock-solid foundation, the Tacoma is the compact pick-up truck that’s further defined by choice. Canadians can choose from: four-cylinder or V6 engines; manual or automatic transmissions; 4x2 or 4x4 drive trains; Access Cab or Double Cab configurations; and five-foot or six-foot cargo beds.
Four-cylinder Tacoma models feature a 2.7-litre engine that develops 159 peak horsepower and up to 180 lb-ft of torque, coupled to a choice of five-speed manual transmission or four-speed automatic ECT transmission with lock up torque converter. Four-cylinder models feature the four-person Access Cab and a choice of 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrains.
For more power, Tacoma models equipped with Toyota’s 4.0-litre V6 generate 236 peak horsepower and up to 266 lb-ft of torque, paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or five-speed Super ECT automatic transmission with lock up torque converter. V6 Models feature 4x4 drive trains and a choice of four-person Access Cab or five-passenger Double Cab.
All engines feature Variable Valve Timing with intelligence, Sequential Multiport Electronic Fuel Injection, Electronic Throttle Control System with intelligence, and other systems to maximize power and efficiency under all load conditions. Heavy-duty batteries, starters, alternators and heaters plus stainless steel exhaust systems make every Tacoma a dependable partner – even in Canadian winters.
The Tacoma’s suspension system delivers off-road driving confidence, while providing a surprisingly comfortable ride on the open road. All Tacoma models feature an independent double wishbone front suspension with gas shock absorbers, coil springs and a stabilizer bar, plus a leaf spring rear suspension with gas shocks.
4x2 Tacoma models feature rear-wheel-drive, while 4x4 models feature on-demand 4WD with an auto-limited slip/auto disconnecting rear differential, two-speed transfer case, and one-touch 4WD control with in-cabin indicator, making it easy to switch between RWD and 4WD, even on the fly.
Safety is always standard on a Toyota, so every 2015 Tacoma features six airbags plus Active Front Headrests with Whiplash Protection, tether anchor points for child seats and a direct tire pressure monitoring system. As with every new Toyota since 2011, the 2015 Tacoma is also standard equipped with the six active safety technologies of the Star Safety System: Antilock Brake System, Brake Assist, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, Vehicle Stability Control, Active Traction Control and Smart Stop Technology work together to help drivers avoid potential accident situations.
All models are generously equipped with comfort and convenience features, including: a six-speaker, 6.1” display audio system with integrated Bluetooth connectivity, voice recognition, and auxiliary audio and USB inputs; air conditioning; power door locks; power windows with driver side auto-down function; a tilting/telescoping steering column; plenty of thoughtful in-cabin storage; 12-volt accessory power outlet; dual exterior mirrors; rear step bumper; removable tailgate; tie-down cleats; a double-wall, composite cargo bed; 3,500 or 6,500 lb towing capacity (engine dependent); and more.
