Here's what you should know when it comes to Toyota truck cab sizes for this model. There are two options in the 2024 model year: the Double Cab and the CrewMax cab. Both cabs can FIT six people - that's how spacious they are - but there are five seatbelts (so you should max it out at five people). Both cabs have two rows of seating - two in the front, three in the back - and four doors for easy access to the cabin. The CrewMax Cab will give you a little more space, especially when it comes to legroom and shoulder room. The Double Cab is comfortable and spacious, and it'll allow you to get a long bed that’s over 8 feet long for extra hauling capabilities. You won’t have the option of a long bed with the CrewMax cab.

It has two doors and a single row of seating, so it's a great work truck or option for people who like to travel light to find adventure. The Double Cab seats five passengers. It has two rows of seating and four doors. The doors vary in size, though, depending on the bed size you choose.

2026 Toyota Tacoma

Choosing a lift kit for your Toyota Tacoma

Updated on April 13, 2026 So you finally got your dream Tacoma and it’s sitting in your driveway, waiting to be customized. A lift kit is one of the most common modifications that Tacoma drivers add to their trucks. But how do you choose the right lift kit for your new Orlando Toyota? Our parts specialists are here with tips. Choosing the Right Lift Kit for Your Toyota Tacoma Understand your lift kit options: Tacoma owners can choose between leveling kits (for appearance and minor clearance), suspension lifts (for maximum off-road capability and tire clearance), and body lifts (less common and mostly aesthetic). Match the lift to your driving needs: Your ideal setup depends on how you use your truck. Daily driving may call for a mild leveling kit, while serious off-roading requires a larger suspension lift with increased ground clearance. Plan for performance, comfort, and cost: Lift kits impact ride quality, require compatible tires, and may involve additional modifications. Budget should include installation and supporting components. Consider OEM and professional support: Toyota now offers a factory-backed lift kit with performance upgrades, and working with a trusted parts department ensures proper fitment, safety, and long-term reliability. Think long-term when customizing: Choosing a lift kit that aligns with future upgrades and your overall goals helps avoid costly changes later and ensures your Tacoma evolves with your needs. What are lift kits? Let’s start by defining what a lift kit actually is. A lift kit is a chassis modification that is designed to lift or level the suspension of your truck. There are multiple options when choosing a lift kit for your Toyota Tacoma – here are the three most common. A leveling kit: When you drive your Toyota Tacoma home from our Orlando Toyota dealership, you’ll notice that it has a “rake” in its suspension. This is when the front end of the truck sits a bit lower than the rear – it occurs naturally due to the engine’s weight. Leveling kits are designed to lift the front end so it sits evenly with the rear of the truck and they also give you the opportunity to add bigger tires and increase your ground clearance. A suspension lift: A full suspension lift kit for your Toyota Tacoma increases tire clearance in the front AND back of your truck (rather than just the front). This allows for larger tires and more ground clearance, which is great for off-roading. Plus, it looks sportier. These kits vary in size and you’ll have tons of options when it comes to brand and the height of the lift. A body lift: Body lift kits are less common than leveling or suspension lift kits. Body lift kits don’t touch the suspension to allow for more ground clearance – instead, they increase the distance between the body and the frame of the vehicle. This means your suspension stays stock. It also means that these lift kits aren’t at all popular for off-roading. Keep in mind that when you add a Toyota Tacoma lift, you may want to (or have to) adjust other parts of your truck, too. A lift kit could result in modifications to the brake lines, driveshafts, differential and transfer cases, and ring gears. (That’s why we recommend working with a professional if you don’t know your way around a truck.) One thing to keep in mind before choosing a Toyota Tacoma lift kit is how you actually use your truck day to day. Some drivers want a more aggressive stance for their daily commute around Orlando, while others want more clearance for weekends on the trail. There’s a big difference between wanting your Tacoma to look tougher in the parking lot and needing it to perform better off-road. That’s why it’s a good idea to think through your goals before buying parts. It can save you time, money, and a lot of trial and error later. Which lift kit is right for your Toyota Tacoma? Now you’ve got a grasp on what a lift kit is and the different options available to you… so which one is the best lift kit for your Toyota Tacoma? Here’s what the Toyota of Orlando parts experts have to say about it. If you’re trying to decide between a lift kit and a leveling kit, ask yourself these questions: ▪ Are you going to be taking on some serious off-road terrain? We’re talking rock crawling, trudging through mud and sand, driving mountain trails. If so, then a lift kit will afford you more ground clearance and the room to add on the tires you need to take on any terrain. Conversely, are you just adding a lift kit for aesthetic purposes? If so, a leveling kit will balance out your truck and give it a more aggressive appearance. More lift kit tips from the pros If you decided on a lift kit to get off the pavement, here are a few more tips: If you’re going to be driving on moderate trails, a 1-inch to 2-inch lift should suffice. If you’re going to tackle larger rocks and stumps while on the trails, look into a lift that gives you 3-4 extra inches. If you’re doing serious rock crawling, a 6-inch lift kit should do the job. It’s also important to think about ride quality. A Toyota Tacoma lift kit can definitely change how your truck feels behind the wheel. Some setups are built to maintain a ride that feels close to stock, while others are designed with off-road capability as the main priority. If your Tacoma is your daily driver, you’ll probably want a setup that still feels comfortable on I-4, around downtown Orlando, and on everyday errands. If it’s more of a weekend adventure vehicle, then you may be okay sacrificing a little on-road comfort in exchange for extra clearance and trail performance. How do lift kits affect your truck's tires? Another factor to think about is tires. Many drivers start shopping for a Toyota Tacoma lift kit because they want to run larger, more aggressive tires. That makes sense, but it’s important to remember that tires and lift kits usually go hand in hand. A small leveling kit may be enough if you just want a slightly bigger tire and a tougher overall look. However, if you want a much larger tire setup, you may need a more complete suspension lift and possibly additional trimming or modifications. Planning all of this out in advance can help you avoid surprises during installation. How much does a Toyota Tacoma lift kit cost? You’ll also want to think about cost. A leveling kit is generally the most budget-friendly option, which makes it a popular choice for drivers who want a quick visual upgrade. A suspension lift is more of an investment, but it also gives you the biggest change in capability. A body lift often lands somewhere in the middle, but again, it’s usually less desirable for drivers who actually plan to head off-road. When you’re comparing options, remember to factor in installation, alignment, and any supporting parts you may need in addition to the Toyota Tacoma lift kit itself. Where can you buy Toyota Tacoma lifts? Here’s the best news yet – Toyota actually offers a Toyota brand lift kit for the Tacoma. Here’s what it includes: TRD-tuned Bilstein Monotube shocks optimized for body control and ride comfort Heritage-inspired TRD Pro-style front grille Millimeter wave radar sensor for TSS (Toyota Safety Sense) integration Wire harness and cable spacers The lift kit fits Toyota Tacoma V6 and 4×4 models from 2020 on. Once the parts are installed, you’ll increase frame ground clearance by 1.7 inches. The kit also improves the approach angle (+3.1 to 32 degrees), breakover angle (+1.6 to 22 degrees), and departure angle (+0.5 to 24 degrees). TRD Off-Road grades see even further improvement to the approach angle that increases to 35.5 degrees (+3.5). Plus, the new Associated Accessories Program (AAP) will give you access to aftermarket parts and accessories for your new Toyota Tacoma. Why buy a Toyota lift kit from a dealer? This is one reason it’s smart to shop for your Toyota Tacoma lift kit through a trusted parts department. When you work with professionals, you can ask questions about compatibility, installation, and what setup makes the most sense for your truck. Not every kit fits every Tacoma the same way, and factors like model year, trim level, drivetrain, and how you plan to use the truck all matter. Our team can help you narrow down your options so you don’t end up buying parts that aren’t the right fit. <span data-mce-type="bookmark" class="mce_SELRES_start"></span> Do you need professional installation for a Toyota Tacoma lift kit? Professional installation matters, too. While some truck owners love taking on their own projects, suspension modifications are a big deal. Installing a Toyota Tacoma lift kit incorrectly can affect alignment, steering, braking, and overall drivability. It can also cause premature wear on suspension components and tires. Having it done by experienced technicians gives you more peace of mind, especially if you plan to take your Tacoma off-road after the install. And don’t forget about the long-term picture. The right Toyota Tacoma lift kit should work for your truck now and for how you plan to use it in the future. Maybe you’re starting with light trail use now, but you know you want to add bigger tires, wheels, or other off-road accessories later. Choosing a setup that gives you room to grow can be a smart move. On the other hand, if you know you just want a clean, leveled look and better road presence, then keeping it simple may be the best route.

If you’re ready to upgrade your truck’s look and capability, Toyota of Orlando is the place to start. FAQs: 1. What options are there when it comes to suspension? When it comes to truck suspension upgrades, the most common options include leveling kits, suspension lift kits, and body lifts. Leveling kits raise the front end to create an even stance, while suspension lifts increase ground clearance and off-road capability by lifting the entire suspension system. Body lifts, on the other hand, raise the truck’s body from the frame without changing suspension geometry, making them more appearance-focused than performance-driven. 2. Do I need special tires if I put a lift kit on my truck? Not always, but it depends on the size of the lift. Smaller leveling kits can often work with your existing tires, while larger suspension lifts typically require bigger, more aggressive tires to match the added clearance and performance. It’s important to choose tires that fit properly with your new setup to avoid rubbing and maintain safe handling. 3. What other off-roading accessories and tips should I be aware of? Beyond a lift kit, there are several key accessories that can improve your truck’s off-road capability and safety. Upgraded all-terrain or mud-terrain tires, skid plates, and rock sliders help protect your vehicle and improve traction on rough terrain. You may also want to consider recovery gear like tow straps, a winch, and traction boards, as well as practical upgrades like better lighting and onboard air for adjusting tire pressure.

Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord

2023 Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord: Which should you buy?

So you're shopping for a new car and looking at midsize sedans. The two probably at the forefront of your research are the 2023 Toyota Camry and the 2023 Honda Accord - two of the most popular and sought-after sedans on the market. But which one is better? While both of these new cars are solid options for your next vehicle, we think the Toyota Camry has some definite advantages. We're here to walk you through it - see how the Toyota Camry LE vs Honda Accord LX comparison for 2023 stacks up! How do the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord compare for 2023? Convenience When it comes to convenience and comfort, the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord have a lot in common. Both sedans offer features like automatic climate control, power door locks, multi-function steering wheels, automatic high beams, and Bluetooth wireless streaming. However, here's where the Orlando Toyota Camry stands out in terms of convenience: It has two climate control zones; the Honda Accord only has one. This makes it more difficult to appease passengers when it comes to comfort. It offers both a heated steering wheel and heated door mirrors, as well as one-touch power windows for ALL windows, including both rear windows. None of these options are available on its Honda competitor. The 2023 Toyota Camry offers power-adjustable front seats with electric lumbar adjustment as a standard feature, as well as heated front seats as an option. You won't find these elements on the Honda Accord. The 2023 Toyota Camry also has six speakers (compared to the Honda Accord's four) for an exceptional listening experience, as well as standard satellite radio. You can also opt for a front sunroof in the 2023 Toyota Camry - you won't have this option in the new Honda Accord. Performance Now let's talk about performance. You know you can expect top safety, fuel-efficient performance, and major reliability from both the Toyota Camry and the Honda Accord. Additionally, both models are available as hybrids. However, there are a few advantages of the 2023 Toyota Camry that are worth noting: The Orlando Toyota Camry has a 2.5L 4-cylinder under the hood; the Honda Accord has a 1.5L 4-cylinder. This means that the Toyota gets more horsepower (203 hp vs Honda's 192 hp). It also gets better fuel efficiency, too. The Toyota Camry gets 39 mpg on the highway while the Accord falls a little short at 37 mpg. This Orlando Toyota comes with a blind spot monitor option that's not available on its Honda competition, and the option of cross-traffic alert (also unavailable on the Honda Accord). Additionally, the Toyota Camry received a 5 in its NHTSA frontal crash rating. Additionally, just a side note - the 2023 Toyota Camry offers a sporty, edgy new Nightshade Edition that's unmatched in the Honda lineup. Ownership What about ownership of the Toyota Camry vs Honda Accord? As we said, both of these rides have their perks and when it comes to dependability and longevity, are pretty much unbeatable. Here's where we feel the 2023 Toyota Camry pulls ahead: Your new Toyota will come with ToyotaCare. This means 24 months or unlimited miles of roadside assistance, whichever comes first. Honda has a 36,000-mile cap on their mileage for roadside assistance. You'll also get 1,000 more miles of no-cost maintenance (like oil changes and tire rotations) with Toyota - their maintenance plan stretches for 24 months or 25,000 miles.

2023 Toyota RAV4

2023 Toyota RAV4 vs 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross

So you're shopping for a new Toyota and looking for something fuel-efficient and on the compact side. Toyota of Orlando is here to help - today we're comparing the 2023 Toyota RAV4 to the 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross. How does the new Toyota RAV4 compare to the Corolla Cross? There's a lot going on in the world of compact SUVs and crossovers - for the first time, these are the most desirable options in the sea of trucks, sedans, minivans, hatchbacks, and coupes. And with good reason - gone are the bloated and inefficient days of SUVs past. Today's SUV and crossover options are fuel-efficient (even boasting hybrid options) as well as streamlined and affordable. We're comparing two of the most popular options - here's how the 2023 Toyota RAV4 stands up to the 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross. Performance The 2023 Toyota RAV4 has three engine options to choose from - a 2.5L 4-cylinder (30 mpg), a hybrid (40 mpg), and a plug-in hybrid. The 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross has two options - a 2.5L 4-cylinder (32 mpg)  or a hybrid (37 mpg). No matter which way you slice it, both offer fuel-efficient options, but if you want a plug-in hybrid, you should opt for the RAV4. Here are some other performance aspects to consider: The RAV4 can tow up to 3,500 lbs without batting an eye. The Corolla Cross maxes out at 1,500 lbs. The RAV4 also has more off-roading ability than the Corolla Cross. It comes in TRD, Adventure, and Woodland Edition trims, and has a higher ground clearance in general (which is better for uneven terrain). The RAV4 gets more horsepower (203 vs 169) in the gas engine options than the Corolla Cross, and slightly more torque (165 lb-ft vs 151 lb-ft). Both vehicles are available in all-wheel drive options. 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Interior The interior of the Orlando Toyota Corolla Cross and RAV4 are pretty similar, believe it or not, and share a lot of the same technology and appearance options (we're talking Apple CarPlay, Softex, etc.). However, the 2023 Toyota RAV4 is slightly more spacious than the Corolla Cross, as it's larger. Both seat five and in terms of cargo space, the RAV4 offers 37.6 cubic feet while the Corolla Cross clocks in at 24 cubic feet. Safety In terms of safety features, again, you'll find a lot of similar options including Toyota Safety Sense, Advanced Airbag Systems, backup cameras, Star Safety System, and more. However, when it boils down to IIHS Crash Test Scores (for 2022, not 2023 - 2023 is not available yet), the Corolla Cross is the winner. It's an IIHS Top Safety Pick +, while the RAV4 is an IIHS Top Safety Pick (without the +). Price If you're looking for the more budget-friendly option of the two, you should go for the 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross. It has a starting MSRP of $23,060 while the 2023 Toyota RAV4 has a starting MSRP of $27,975. You'll have more options in the 2023 Toyota RAV4. It comes in 16 trims, including 7 electrified options and special models like the Woodland Edition. The 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross comes in 3 gasoline grades and five hybrid grades. You'll get the same warranty when you buy these Orlando Toyotas - both offer a 3-year/36,000 mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty. Additionally, both vehicles offer the same warranty for corrosion and restraints. Drive home a new Orlando Toyota today It really comes down to what you want out of your next vehicle, and we recommend taking both of these 2023 Toyotas for a spin.

Get ready for this incredible new family ride, coming to a dealer near you! Get ready to meet the incredible new 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander As we said, the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander is all new. It's a reboot of the best-selling Orlando Toyota Highlander, but bigger - much bigger. While the original Toyota Highlander does have a third row, it's not exactly known for being spacious or comfortable, especially for adults. The 2024 Grand Highlander, on the other hand, takes that third row and expands it to ensure even adults can stretch out and get comfortable. Here are some of the highlights coming with the introduction of this new Toyota to the lineup. It'll come in three grades (XLE, Limited, and Platinum) with three different powertrains - a 2.4L turbo gas engine, a 2.5L hybrid that gets 34 mpg combined, and a hybrid MAX powertrain that gets 362 horsepower. It'll offer both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive options, paddle shifters, and dial multi-terrain select. It'll also be part of the "Beyond Zero" family (Toyota's new lineup that promises maximum fuel efficiency and low emissions) and have BZ badging The third row - as promised - will comfortably seat three adults but still leave room for seven carry-on suitcases in the cargo area behind it. All in all, if you fold down the second and third rows, you'll have an astounding 98 cubic feet of space. It packs a ton of tech designed to keep you entertained and connected, including a standard 12.3-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia system, Connected Service Drive Connect with Intelligent Assistant, Cloud Navigation and Destination Assist, dual Bluetooth phone connectivity, and standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto. You'll also love features like Wi-Fi Connect, HD Radio, SiriusXM® Platinum, a JBL® Premium Audio system with 11 speakers, seven USB-C ports, and Remote Connect. You'll still feel just as safe as you do in the original Orlando Toyota Highlander with safety features like Safety Connect, Service Connect, Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Front and Rear Parking Assist with Automatic Braking. And don't forget convenience tech like a digital key, power rear liftgate with kick power, Qi wireless charging, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, rain-sensing wipers, and a beautiful panoramic moonroof. Now let's talk about aesthetics. The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander definitely evokes its smaller sibling - the Orlando Toyota Highlander - but obviously, it's larger and as such, has a different look in the rear especially. Here are some elements we love: A unique, trapezoidal, hammerhead front grille Multiple wheel sizes that get all the way up to 20" An available exclusive front and rear lower bumper Roof rails A soft-padded instrument panel and available wood-effect trim SofTex, Leather-trimmed, or Ultrasuede and leather seats with premium stitching and 10-way power-adjustable settings, all available in Light Gray and Black Follow Toyota of Orlando on social for more updates We can't wait to get our hands on the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander, coming to a dealer near you soon.

New Toyota bZ SUV concept unveiled in U.S.

If you follow the automotive world at all, you probably know that Toyota recently released their all-electric 2 023 Toyota bz4X crossover. We haven't seen one at Toyota of Orlando yet but we're eagerly awaiting its arrival. In the interim, we've got more exciting electric news - an all-new Toyota concept SUV has been unveiled in the U.S. Here are the details! What is the new Toyota bZ SUV concept? The new Toyota bZ SUV concept was recently revealed and we're honestly ready for it to go into production now. Here's what you can expect when it arrives at Toyota of Orlando: It'll sit under the new "bZ" umbrella - bZ stands for Beyond Zero and applies to their battery electric vehicles. It has a distinctive look - it rocks an aerodynamic design with wheels pushed out to its four corners for a low, aggressive stance. It also has short overhands and sweepback angles, as well as a narrowed cabin design. It also has premium finishes that do double duty by also being eco-friendly. Interior seating is made from plant-based and recycled materials. This new Toyota bZ SUV concept also has incredible technology woven into its design. One particular piece of tech that we love is "Yui" - an in-car personal agent that connects the driver and passengers with the vehicle via audio and visual lighting cues around the cabin, and responds to their requests. The whole point of expanding the bZ line and adding a bZ SUV concept to the mix is to help create a feature where carbon neutrality is finally achieved by offering a portfolio of alternative-fuel and zero-emission options to its customers. On the global scale, Toyota will offer close to 30 electric vehicle options, including a total of five under the bZ umbrella. Hopefully, this will push Toyota toward its carbon neutrality goal by 2050. Still not sure if an electric car is the right choice for you? Toyota of Orlando is here to help you make the decision with as much knowledge as possible. Here are some of the points to consider when shopping for your next new Toyota: All-electric cars run solely on electric power - because of that, they have to be charged by plugging them in. You can always charge at a public charger or have a charger installed at your home, but charging them by plugging them into the wall can take days, so you need to have a charging plan in place. If you're worried about being able to keep your car charged up, then an Orlando Toyota hybrid or plug-in hybrid might be a better bet for you. Electric cars are definitely zero-emissions on a local level, but they might not be on a non-local level. Do your research to find out where your electricity comes from. If the electricity in your area is fueled by fossil fuels, you're still creating emissions (technically). That may affect your decision when it comes to buying an EV. You don't have to pay for gas. You do need to pay for electricity to charge your car, but it can be significantly cheaper than paying for gas (especially right now). Get more info on electric cars at Toyota of Orlando Have questions about the new Toyota bZ SUV concept or electric cars in general? We've got the answers. Call Toyota of Orlando today at (407) 298-4500 or stop by. We're open seven days a week at 3575 Vineland Road, just off I-4 near the Millenia Mall.

best Toyota cars

What are the best Toyota cars in other countries?

Here in the US - and at Toyota of Orlando - we know which new Toyotas are our best-sellers. The cars we see the highest demand for include the Toyota Camry, Toyota Corolla, Toyota RAV4, Toyota Tacoma, and Toyota Highlander. However, not all of these models are available in other countries across the world, and even if they are they may not be the most popular option. Today we're skipping around the globe to see which are the best Toyota cars in other countries - buckle up! The best Toyota cars across the world Europe: OK, we know Europe isn't a country, it's a continent. However, although it's made up of numerous individual countries, they all have at least one thing in common (besides really good cheese and chocolate) - they all like the Toyota Yaris. This sporty hatchback is a fan favorite and has been for all four generations of its life in Europe. It's Toyota's most successful and best-selling vehicle in Europe, and with the addition of the new GR hot hatch a few years ago it's only surged in popularity. Mexico: In Mexico, the best Toyota cars boil down to just one: the Toyota Hilux. This versatile truck is super similar to the current Toyota Tacoma that you'll see at Toyota of Orlando but offers an even higher degree of durability (just ask the guys from Top Gear). The Toyota Hilux used to be for sale in the U.S. but was retired and is currently not in production stateside; however, it continues to be a much-loved favorite in other countries. In fact, it's considered to be one of the most popular and best Toyota cars in Latin America as a whole, especially in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina. Japan: Japan is where Toyota - quite literally - comes from, so it's pretty much expected that it has a whole list of the best Toyota cars to buy. The top contenders? The Toyota Yaris, Toyota Roomy, Toyota Corolla, and Toyota Alphard. The Yaris, as we know, is a sporty hatchback, while the Toyota Roomy is a seven-seater that's technically an SUV but looks more like a cross between an SUV and a van. The Corolla is a sleek sedan, and the Toyota Alphard is a futuristic-looking minivan. Toyota holds four of the top ten spots of the best cars in Japan... we're not surprised. Australia: If you head down (under) to Australia, you'll find that Toyotas are pretty popular. The best Toyota cars in this Oceanic country are the Toyota Hilux (which is perfect for taking on the rugged outback), the Toyota Corolla, and the Toyota RAV4. As Australia is a mix of unexplored wilderness and highly populated urban areas, it needs a solid mix of vehicles, and Toyota delivers on all accounts. Africa: Again, a continent and not a country, but despite being made of different individual countries, Africa as a whole prefers the Toyota Hilux (are you seeing a trend here?). This versatile and capable truck is perfect for taking on any type of terrain, which makes it perfect for the versatile landscapes on this continent. Additionally, the Toyota Corolla, Toyota Fortuner (a luxury SUV that reminds us of the Orlando Toyota Highlander), and the Toyota Hiace (a utilitarian van) are all popular options and are high up there on the best Toyota cars list in Africa. Canada: Head north and you'll see that Toyota still has a strong foothold amongst our Canadian neighbors. Their first choice? The Toyota Corolla, followed by the Toyota Camry and Toyota Prius. All three offer efficient, safe, and reliable performances to our friends up north and further, the Corolla is only 333 units behind the #1 best-selling car in Canada, the Honda Civic. Sounds like it's time to close the gap! See the best Toyota cars in the U.S. at Toyota of Orlando Have questions or want to explore the best Toyota cars in America? We've got you.
