King Rose Archives | Revolutionary Power and Timeless Appeal: The 1998 Toyota Tacoma Legacy @KingRoseArchives | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
The 1998 Toyota Tacoma was the first Toyota truck to be offered with a V6 engine, the most powerful option at the time, producing 190 horsepower and 220 lb-ft of torque. Not to mention, it could tow up to 3,500 pounds!
Designed by Kevin Hunter, a Japanese-American automotive designer, the 1998 Toyota Tacoma was first shown at the Chicago Auto Show in February 1997. The Tacoma was designed to replace the Toyota Pickup, which had been in production since 1968. Even though it was the first all-new pickup truck that Toyota had introduced in over 20 years, Toyota had produced 12 different types of Toyota pickups before the Tacoma, so you might say they had some practice, and it showed.
The Tacoma was smaller and lighter than average pickup at the time, and it was also more fuel-efficient. It was available in three cab styles: Regular Cab, Extended Cab, and Double Cab. The 1998 Toyota Tacoma was the best-selling midsize pickup truck in the United States that year. The Tacoma was popular [popular is used a number of times (see underlines). Is this intentional? If not, please improve.] for its combination of reliability, durability, and affordability. The 1998 Toyota Tacoma was a significant vehicle for Toyota. It was the first all-new pickup truck that Toyota had introduced in over 20 years. [this is repeated... see above and please fix] The Toyota Tacoma is still in production today, with rumors of a whole new design expected for 2024. It is one of the most popular midsize pickup trucks in the world and as of 2023, Toyota has sold over 19 million Tacomas worldwide.
#FunFact: The exact number of 1998 Toyota Tacomas that were sold is not available, but it is estimated to be around 152,770 units. This makes it one of the most popular midsize pickup trucks of all time.
