Consumer Guide




In four-cylinder form, the Tacoma is pretty good on gas for a pickup, while V-6 Tacomas really aren't much better than a full-size truck. There's a very significant difference between base 2WD four-cylinder models of the Tacoma—returning up to 21 mpg city, 25 highway—and 4WD V-6 models—which get as low as 14/18.

In four-cylinder form, the Tacoma gets better mileage than GM's full-size hybrids—the Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid and GMC Sierra Hybrid—but not quite the numbers of the Ford Ranger.

Conclusion

Most V-6 versions of the 2011 Toyota Tacoma are pretty thirsty, but this compact truck can be a relatively green choice in four-cylinder form.
