Toyota Reveals Electric Tacoma Concept

[Tyler]

Toyota held a big presentation today where they revealed a bunch of new electric vehicle concepts. Including this pickup truck that looks to be the size of a Tacoma.

I think it's safe to say that the gas version will look something very similar to this.

Change is said to be coil springs all around, Turbo 4 cylinder (or electric) not sure about a standard 4 cylinder.
However, also said to be gone is the V6. So may well be the 6MT.....

So, the V6-MT-4WD-HS (Hood Scoop),..... Combined Factory Options (CFO) are now un-obtanium.

Looking forward to this engine disappearing. Reliable, but man is it inefficient and underpowered.

I’m surprised how well it pulls over 4k. Problem is I never drive it there.

I'm just frustrated that I get 12mpg with 33's and some doodads. Sheesh, the raptor R goes 0-60 in 3.5 seconds on 37's and gets the same gas mileage.

I get 18-20 mpg all day in mine with a MT.
As said,... your mileage may vary

Did you get an OV Tune yet?
