Toyota Tacoma Technology
You love hitting the back roads and slicing through the soft mud with your tires—that’s why you’re thinking of buying a Toyota Tacoma. Who said you had to make a choice between cutting-edge technology and the fun of a mud bogging weekend, though?
The team at Toyota of Gastonia has put together this Toyota Tacoma technology review, so you can learn how this powerhouse of a pickup is the perfect compromise between your connected day to day and your rugged weekends. If you’re in the Gastonia, Charlotte, or Lincolnton, North Carolina, area, visit us for a test drive.
Interior Technology
You’re going to be spending most of your time in the cab of your Toyota Tacoma, so it should be comfortable.
Luckily for you and your passengers, the 2022 Tacoma offers dual-zone automatic climate control. This means you can set your side of the truck to a toasty warm, while your co-pilot can keep their side pleasantly chilly.
When it comes to staying connected while you’re on the road, the Tacoma infotainment system comes standard with Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and Amazon Alexa capability. This is great for keeping control of your podcasts and playlists on the longest of drives—even if you and you co-pilot can’t agree on what songs are best.
Off-Roading Technology
Toyota doesn’t just apply technological advancements to the interior of the 2022 Toyota Tacoma, but to off-roading, as well. The truck has an available Crawl Control (CRAWL) system, which modulates the throttle and brakes on five low-speed settings to help you keep control on the roughest of terrains.
You can also have the available Multi-Terrain Monitor, which uses a system of front, rear, and side cameras to warn you of potential obstacles in your way. Need specific power for a specific terrain? Good news: You’ll also have access to Multi-Terrain Select with five terrain choices that help automatically regulate wheelspin, depending on the terrain you’ve selected.
Safety Technology
Arguably, the most important type of technological advancement is within the realm of safety. The Toyota Tacoma comes with Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P).
This impressive safety suite includes the following features:
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
- Lane Departure Alert
- Automatic High Beams
You’ll also have Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. With this system, you can set a speed and following distance from the car in front of you and, using radar, your Tacoma will help maintain that speed and distance. This can help on those particularly traffic-filled commutes!
