Dark ILLUMINATI Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Historically, contemporary production of the Toyota Tacoma had been performed at plants in San Antonio Texas, United States, and in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. But, to be honest, manufacturing in our country was secondary, supportive. However, as of December 2019, the production of this pickup moved completely to the new Apaseo el Grande complex, Guanajuato, so the Toyota Tacoma 2020 can already boast of being a vehicle whose production is carried out entirely in Mexico. The most interesting thing is that this change is accompanied by a slight facelift, something necessary considering that the Tacoma has been present in our market since 2005. Thus, we found a slight redesign in grille, fascia, skulls and wheels. In relation to the previous model, in terms of equipment, the new Tacoma launches an 8-inch touch screen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, at the same time that it adds sunroofs, leather seats The comfort equipment list is completed with the inclusion of the Smart Key system, electronically adjustable driver's seat, 4.2 ”display and automatic air conditioning. Regarding safety, the following stand out: seven air bags, Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Antilock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist ( BA) and TSC (Trailer Sway Control). In terms of functionality, it now features a 7-pin tow hook and tow harness, as well as anti-skid rear and side footrests. This without forgetting that it has a drag package and TSC (Trailer Sway Control). Where there is no news is in the mechanical section, since under the hood the 3.5L V6 continues, with 278HP and 265 pound-feet of torque that is coupled to a 6-speed automatic transmission. Depending on the version, the traction can be simple (4X2) or 4x4. The front suspension is independent type with double fork and springs; while the rear is dependent type with a rigid axle and semi-elliptical springs. The towing capacity is 1,586 kilos, and 3,035 kilos when it has electric brakes on the trailer wheels. Edited April 23, 2020 by CSBD Community
