Toyota gives truck shoppers two distinctly different ways to get the job done for 2027. The 2027 Toyota Tacoma remains the midsize choice, with turbocharged four-cylinder power, available four-wheel drive, multiple cab and bed configurations, and up to 6,500 pounds of towing capacity. The 2027 Toyota Tundra moves into full-size territory with twin-turbo V6 power, updated exterior styling, and a new Trailhunter package based on the SR5 trim. At I-95 Toyota of Brunswick in Brunswick, GA, drivers can decide which Toyota truck better fits their workload, passengers, towing needs, and off-pavement plans.
The Tacoma was recently redesigned, so Toyota carries it into 2027 without major changes. That means shoppers still get a wide range of configurations, from a straightforward rear-wheel-drive pickup to four-wheel-drive models equipped for serious trail work. The nonhybrid Tacoma lineup includes SR, SR5, TRD PreRunner, TRD Sport, and TRD Off-Road models. XtraCab and Double Cab configurations give buyers different approaches to passenger and cargo needs.
The XtraCab skips the rear seat and pairs with a six-foot bed. The four-door Double Cab adds rear seating and can be configured with a five-foot or six-foot bed. Upper configurations also benefit from a coil-spring rear suspension designed to provide a smoother ride than the leaf-spring setup found on the SR, SR5 XtraCab, and TRD PreRunner.
Every nonhybrid 2027 Tacoma uses a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. Output depends on the configuration. The SR produces 228 horsepower, while other models offer up to 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission remains available alongside the eight-speed automatic.
Key Tacoma capability figures include:
For drivers who want more muscle, the Tacoma hybrid powertrain produces 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. Hybrid models can tow up to 6,000 pounds and carry up to 1,710 pounds of payload.
The 2027 Toyota Tundra gets more noticeable changes. Toyota revises the front-end styling across the Tundra family and adds a new Trailhunter package based on the SR5 trim and designed for off-road driving. Trailhunter equipment includes 265/70R Michelin LTX Trail tires wrapped around bronze-colored 18-inch wheels, an upgraded Old Man Emu suspension, and a locking rear differential. Toyota also equips it with front recovery hooks, additional underbody skid plates, Multi-Terrain Select, and Crawl Control. The broader Tundra lineup includes SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, TRD Pro, and Capstone trims, along with the available Trailhunter package, giving shoppers options ranging from work-focused configurations to trucks with more comfort and cabin equipment.
Size is the clearest difference inside these trucks. The midsize Tacoma prioritizes a more compact cabin, while the full-size Tundra provides more passenger space.
Tacoma cabin highlights include:
The Tundra offers two cab sizes with generous front-seat headroom and shoulder room. A wide center console provides extra storage, while Limited offers heated and ventilated front seats, and Platinum adds massaging front seats.
The Tacoma comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen on most models, while a 14-inch touchscreen is available on select trims and standard on Limited. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are included throughout the lineup. Available equipment includes wireless charging and a JBL® audio system with a removable Bluetooth® speaker. The Tundra features a standard 14-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Depending on trim, buyers can also get wireless charging, additional USB ports, and a 12-speaker JBL® audio system.
The decision starts with how much truck you actually need. The 2027 Toyota Tacoma combines midsize dimensions with up to 6,500 pounds of towing capacity, available four-wheel drive, a choice of cab and bed configurations, and an available manual transmission.
The 2027 Toyota Tundra answers heavier-duty demands with full-size dimensions, twin-turbo V6 power, and greater passenger space. The new Trailhunter package also gives off-road shoppers another factory-equipped option for 2027. For Brunswick drivers, that makes the choice refreshingly straightforward: Tacoma for midsize versatility and maneuverability, or Tundra when towing capacity, cabin size, and full-size capability take priority.
