2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 Package Specs, Options, and Details
Today, we explore the 2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 with details, specs, and the SR5 Upgrade Package. As I’ve stated before in this 2024 Tacoma series, I had my doubts about the new design. However, as additional images surfaced, I warmed up to this new body style. As always, my goal is to make this post fast, informative, and easy to digest.

Tacoma SR5's New Turbocharged 4-cylinder
i-FORCE 2.4L Turbocharged Engine: This upgraded engine boasts superior performance compared to the standard 2.4L Turbo engine, delivering 278 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 317 lb.-ft of torque. It comes equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. It offers the option of Part-time 4WD, giving drivers enhanced control and capability across various terrains.
As mentioned before, I’ve had the chance to drive the i-FORCE engines. I can confidently say that the 2.4L Turbo is a significant upgrade over the previous Generation’s 4-cylinder engine. This engine packs quite a punch; when you step on the gas, you’ll feel the truck accelerate noticeably faster compared to both the previous Generation’s 4-cylinder and its V6 counterpart.
Payload & Towing Capacity for Tacoma SR5 (2024)
Underneath, the 2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 with the Double Cab configuration rides on a Coil spring multi-link rear suspension with twin-tube shocks, providing a balance of comfort and stability. The XtraCab model uses leaf spring rear suspension with twin-tube shocks.
Additionally, the platform is built on the TNGA-F architecture, enhancing overall performance and durability.
In terms of capabilities, the Tacoma SR5 boasts a wide payload range:
- SR5 (i-FORCE 5-ft. bed Double Cab 8AT 2WD)
- 1,510 lbs.
- SR5 (i-FORCE 5-ft. bed Double Cab 8AT 4WD)
- 1,505 lbs.
- SR5 (i-FORCE 6-ft. bed Double Cab 8AT 2WD)
- 1,605 lbs.
- SR5 (i-FORCE 6-ft. bed Double Cab 8AT 4WD)
- 1,405 lbs.
- SR5 (i-FORCE 6-ft. bed Xtra Cab 8AT 2WD)
- 1,460 lbs.
- SR5 (i-FORCE 6-ft. bed Xtra Cab 8AT 4WD)
- 1,203 lbs.
From what I’ve seen published by Toyota, the towing capacity is equally impressive, ranging from 6,400 lbs. on the Double Cabs to 6,500 lbs. on the XtraCabs. This will definitely be a plus for those interested in towing something significant.
Braking System and Ground Clearance
The Tacoma SR5 features disc brakes measuring 12.6 inches in the front and 12.2 inches in the rear, providing reliable stopping power when needed. Plus, you can confidently conquer rough terrain with up to 10.8 inches of ground clearance on Double Cabs and up to 11 inches on Xtra Cabs.
Off-Road Tech
The 2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 comes equipped with advanced Off-Road Tech to enhance your driving experience:
Toyota Auto Limited Slip Differential (Auto LSD): Automatically adjusting power distribution to the wheels with the most traction minimizes wheel spin and improves overall control, helping you navigate challenging conditions confidently. Stack another win for the SR5 Tacoma.
Wheels and Tires
The Tacoma SR5 now becomes a more premium vehicle, considering you now get the 17-inch styled alloy wheels with 245/70R17 series tires instead of the steel wheels on the SR package.
