Toyota today teased a new variant coming to its Tacoma pickup for the next model-year. The 2024 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter hasn’t been fully revealed, but we did get a couple of images and one or two details to tide us over until fuller information is shared.

At the front, we can see headlight bezels with the Trailhunter lettering. In back, the add-ons include an ARB bumper and a large tow hook mounted on the frame..
We’ve seen the Trailhunter name previously, used on the Tundra Trailhunter concept presented at SEMA last fall. And Toyota confirmed in December that it was also planning a similar ‘overland’ variant for the midsize Tacoma pickup. This then is the first visual manifestation of the new trim; we can expect more to come.
We can also safely assume many of the elements included with the Tundra Trailhunter concept are earmarked for its smaller sibling, if not as standard than at least as optional items. Among these are a adjusted suspension setup, underbody skid plates, roof racks, off-road headlamps, refrigerator and unique in-bed storage options. Another possibility is a bed rack with a roof-top tent mounted to it.
Stay tuned for more teasers and more details in the weeks and months to come
