Find out what we thought of everything from its all-around capability to the tech in our long-term Tacoma test. The Tacoma has received some updates since its redesign in 2016, but it's the same generation truck and most of our observations apply. We bought a 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road and lived with it in our long-term fleet for nearly two years, racking up more than 40,000 miles on the odometer. For a thorough review, check out our test team's evaluation of the Tacoma in the Edmunds' Expert Rating below.

That said, if you're in the market for a midsize truck and can't wait for the next one, the current highly rated Tacoma is still a compelling choice. To stay competitive there will be a new Tacoma soon, but we'll have to keep waiting. Unlike the Tacoma, the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon trucks will be redesigned for 2023, and the Nissan Frontier was just overhauled for 2022. These include a larger touchscreen, keyless entry and a power driver's seat. Other changes amount to increased availability of a few minor features. The only additions include two appearance packages that dress up the SR5 trim with either black or chrome embellishments. Rumors of a fully redesigned Tacoma for 2023 have proven untrue, so it continues in much the same form as last year.
