While Toyota has not provided additional details about the manual transmission, it is expected to be an updated version of the six-speed stick shift in the outgoing Tacoma. However, the confirmation that Toyota will continue offering a manual option for the 2024 Toyota Tacoma is good news for those who prefer rowing their own gears. It remains to be seen if this option will be available on all trims or limited to specific ones.

Toyota has been dropping hints about the upcoming debut of the new Tacoma, which is expected to happen this summer. The automaker teased a few features of the vehicle, including the tailgate of a hard-core off-road TRD Pro model, which revealed an iForce Max badge that hints at the possibility of a hybrid powertrain. Additionally, Toyota announced the addition of a new trim called Trailhunter, which is expected to focus on overlanding and features an ARB rear bumper and a frame-mounted tow hook.

The latest teaser image shows that the TRD Pro will have rear disc brakes for the first time, as well as a rugged suspension featuring a Fox QS3 coil-over and a signature TRD Pro red spring. Toyota has not yet released all the details about the upcoming Tacoma, but more information is expected to be revealed during the full debut in the coming months.
