2025 Toyota Tacoma Towing and Performance
Muscle Meets Utility: 2025 Toyota Tacoma Towing and Performance
The 2025 Toyota Tacoma is back—and it is tougher, smarter, and more capable than ever. Whether you are hauling gear to the cabin, navigating muddy trails, or heading into Stellarton for the weekend, this truck delivers a perfect mix of strength and control. With a bold redesign and improved performance under the hood, the Tacoma proves once again why it remains a favourite in the mid-size truck segment.
Toyota has engineered this year’s Tacoma with a clear purpose: to handle Canadian terrain with confidence. That means more traction, more muscle, and more features that make your everyday drives and off-road adventures easier.
Built to Tow With Confidence
For those who live for towing toys or trailers, the 2025 Tacoma brings a well-balanced mix of utility and comfort. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 6,500 pounds—more than enough for a medium-sized trailer, boat, or recreational gear. The available trailer brake controller and trailer backup guidance add extra layers of safety, giving drivers more confidence when reversing or navigating tighter spaces.
No matter if you’re tackling steep roads in rural Nova Scotia or heading out for a fishing trip along the coast, the Tacoma stays planted and responsive, even with a load behind it. Its bed is also built tough, with a composite surface that resists dents and corrosion—ideal for Canadian weather.
Power Meets Efficiency
Under the hood, the 2025 Toyota Tacoma engine options give buyers some flexibility. A new i-FORCE 2.4-litre turbocharged engine comes standard on most trims, offering smooth delivery and dependable torque. For those wanting extra strength, the i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain—available on select trims—delivers up to 326 net combined horsepower and a hefty 465 lb-ft of torque. That’s a serious boost for drivers needing more grunt on hills or trails.
And if you're wondering about fuel economy, Toyota’s engineering has found a nice balance here, too. With options that aim to provide more low-end torque without guzzling gas, you can expect a respectable L/100 km rating depending on your configuration.


Smooth Where It Matters
Beyond raw power, the 2025 Tacoma performance also focuses on stability and ride quality. The new suspension setup includes available adaptive dampers on select models, which automatically adjust to road conditions. That means less body roll around corners and a smoother feel on bumpy backroads.
Even better? Toyota has widened the Tacoma’s track slightly and optimized its off-road trims like the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro to provide extra articulation, ground clearance, and shock absorption. If you’re exploring one of Stellarton’s backcountry routes or heading to nearby Melmerby Beach, this truck is built to handle it.
