in TRD Pro form, along with the confirmation that it will come with “electrifying i-Force Max” performance. However, Toyota has not disclosed any further details, leaving us to wonder what this could entail.
Although rumors suggested that the next-gen mid-size truck would use the Hybrid MAX powertrain from the Grand Highlander, which combines a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a rear eAxle to deliver 340 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, the Tacoma TRD Pro’s “i-Force Max” designation suggests otherwise.
Instead, while lesser versions may get four-cylinder options, Toyota’s teaser hints that the new Tacoma TRD Pro could share the i-Force Max hybrid powertrain with the Tundra, which features a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 and an electric motor. This electrified unit could be a logical choice given that both trucks are built on the same TNGA-F platform.of the larger Tundra, powered by a 1.87 kWh nickel-metal hydride battery, deliver an impressive 437 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque.
