If you’re unsure about which Toyota could be right for you, read on to explore some of the exciting upgrades Toyota’s been busy with over the past year and what the reviewers are saying about them!
2024 Toyota Tacoma
After nearly two decades as the champion of the mid-size pickup truck market, the Toyota Tacoma is ready for its next chapter. This adventure-ready truck is entirely new for 2024 with epic excursions in mind, improving upon every winning aspect that has made it a dependable go-to for truck buyers for years, along with Toyota’s legendary quality, durability, reliability and more! The new Taco receives updated powertrains, more modern features, and a wider selection of trim levels, which includes the newly introduced Trailhunter that's geared towards people who enjoy overlanding.
“The 2024 Toyota Tacoma finally looks like it has the goods to go toe to toe with modernized mid-size rivals such as the Ford Ranger and Chevy Colorado. Not only does the all-new Taco have brawny bodywork, but also its interior finally qualifies as contemporary, with an attractive aesthetic supplemented by crisp digital displays. The Tacoma lineup is also more diverse than most alternatives, offering two cab and bed configurations. Power comes from a new turbocharged four-cylinder with different output levels, the mightiest of which is the hybrid iForce Max that makes 326 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque—more than any competitor.” -Car and Driver
2024 Toyota Corolla
As North America’s best-selling passenger vehicle year after year, the Toyota Corolla is a classic, dependable vehicle that Canadians can rely on. In fact, surveys say that Canadian drivers value reliability in a vehicle more than any other nation. Thankfully, the Corolla always manages to stay consistent in this department while adding a few new features to keep things interesting. For 2024, we see the return of the Nightshade Edition, absent in last year’s model. But to complement this upgrade this year, we bear witness to the first-ever Corolla Hybrid Nightshade Edition, which features blacked-out badges, black accents, and bronze-finished 18-inch wheels.
“The latest Corolla brings a fresh and modern style without unnecessary trinkets and vents. It's also more enjoyable to drive than before. The overarching themes are capability and competence. The sleek and modern styling of this current generation makes the previous Corolla seem generic by comparison. The more aggressive body treatments for the XSE trim make it even more attractive.” - Edmunds
2024 Toyota Grand Highlander
This year, Toyota welcomes the brand-new 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander. More than just an upgrade from its little brother, the Toyota Highlander, the Grand offers a range of options encompassing entry-level affordability, efficient performance, and high-powered capabilities, all within a single impressive package. It comes in three distinct powertrain configurations spread across three different grades. These include the well-balanced 2.4L turbo gas engine, the fuel-efficient 2.5L hybrid, and the top-tier 362 horsepower Hybrid MAX designed for those seeking optimal performance.
As part of Toyota's comprehensive approach to achieving carbon neutrality, the Grand Highlander Hybrid and Hybrid MAX models are integral components of a product lineup that aims to go "beyond zero." This signifies Toyota's commitment to environmental sustainability. Notably, in 2024, the Grand Highlander will become the second Toyota vehicle to proudly bear the new "Beyond Zero" badge, following in the footsteps of the all-new Prius. This initiative reflects a global endeavour to work towards carbon neutrality not only in Toyota's products but also in its manufacturing processes and beyond.
“The all-new 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander is more than just an extension of the popular Highlander nameplate. It boasts more passenger and cargo space to pry shoppers away from midsize SUVs while retaining the easy drivability that you won't get in truck-based large SUVs. It has ample seating space for up to eight passengers and a good amount of cargo room for a vehicle with its footprint. It's appropriately appointed inside as well, with quality touches and a user-friendly infotainment system. The Grand Highlander isn't particularly muscular, but it does get good fuel economy, and it provides a cushioned ride with well-balanced handling.”– Cars.US News
