What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota Tacoma?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a vehicle history report on any Tacoma you’re considering, even if the listing looks clean. A pre-purchase inspection matters here because condition can vary a lot depending on how the truck was used, especially on off-road-oriented trims. Focus on wear, signs of hard use, and whether the truck’s equipment matches the trim level and price.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup ranges from SR to SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Trail Special Edition. Base SR trims are spartan, while Limited brings a more upscale cabin with leather upholstery and soft-touch materials.
• Powertrain: Lower trims use a 2.7-liter four-cylinder with 159 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque, while the 3.5-liter V6 makes 278 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive are both offered, and the V6 is the better choice if you want stronger capability.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert, and automatic high beams. Blind-spot monitoring, rear- and side parking distance sensors, and a surround-view camera appear on the TRD Pro, while lane-keeping assist and rear automatic emergency braking are not included.
• Infotainment: Base SR trims use a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims get an 8-inch screen. Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM are included, and the interface is simple but dated.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA estimates 20 mpg city, 23 highway, and 21 combined for the four-cylinder with rear-wheel drive, 19/22/20 with four-wheel drive, 19/24/21 for the V6 with rear-wheel drive, 18/22/20 for the V6 with four-wheel drive, and 17/21/18 with the manual transmission.

Which 2023 Toyota Tacoma trim should I buy?

The 2023 Toyota Tacoma is offered in 6 trim levels: SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Trail Special Edition.

Here's the short version:

• SR: This is the most basic Tacoma, and it makes sense if you want the lowest entry point and don’t mind a stripped-down cabin. It’s the trim where the 7-inch touchscreen and simpler interior presentation make the most sense for budget-focused buyers.
• SR5: This is the best-value choice for most shoppers because it builds on the base truck without pushing you into specialty-trim pricing. It also gets the new SX Package if you want blacked-out styling touches.
• TRD Sport: Choose this if you want a more polished everyday Tacoma with a sportier look and broader appeal than the base trims.
• TRD Off-Road: This is the better pick if you want the Tacoma’s capability-first personality without going all the way to the top of the range.
• TRD Pro: This is the one to buy if off-road performance is your priority. It adds underbody skid pads, a TRD-tuned suspension, a TRD sport exhaust, and a unique grille, making it the most serious adventure trim.
• Trail Special Edition: Pick this if you want a more specialized Tacoma with a distinct personality, but it’s best for shoppers who already know they want something beyond the mainstream trims.

Toyota Safety Sense is standard, but the Tacoma does not include lane-keeping assist or rear automatic emergency braking.

What is the 2023 Toyota Tacoma's resale value?

The current average of $36,224 sits slightly below last year's $37,084.

That softer pricing suggests the Tacoma is still holding value reasonably well, even as the market has eased. For a future seller, that means you may not see dramatic appreciation, but you’re starting from a relatively strong position compared with many trucks.

The Tacoma’s reputation for reliability and strong buyer interest should continue to support demand when it’s time to sell. Well-kept examples, especially those with desirable trims and clean history reports, are likely to remain easier to move than less cared-for trucks.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.27/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Toyota Tacoma safe?

The 2023 Toyota Tacoma was not awarded a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and it earns four-star ratings overall from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in side-impact tests and lower marks in frontal crash and rollover tests.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert, and automatic high beams. Higher trims can add blind-spot monitoring, rear- and side parking distance sensors, and a surround-view camera.

A key shortcoming is that the Tacoma does not include lane-keeping assist or rear automatic emergency braking, and it trails newer rivals in advanced driver-assistance capability.

Should I buy a 2023 Toyota Tacoma or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.32% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.27/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 keeps the Tacoma’s rugged identity, strong reliability reputation, and broad trim range.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $33,246, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $36,224 average.
• It offers off-road ability and easy-to-use tech for buyers who want a smaller truck.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $38,451, the 2024 costs more than the current year's $36,224 average.
• It brings a full redesign and a more modern platform.

The bottom line: If you want the familiar Tacoma formula and a better chance of finding a deal, the 2023 is the safer buy. If price matters most, the 2022 can save you money. If you want the newest design and are willing to pay more, the 2024 is the upgrade path.
