Toyota’s 2019 TRD Pro models are a triple threat of off-road capability

By Stephen Edelstein Published February 9, 2018

While trucks like the Ford F-150 Raptor and Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 tend to draw more attention, Toyota’s TRD (short for Toyota Racing Development) off-road models have a distinguished pedigree. Introduced in 2014, the trio of TRD vehicles offer just about as much off-road capability as most buyers want. The entire lineup is getting an upgrade for the 2019 model year.

The 2019 Toyota TRD Pro models were introduced at the 2018 Chicago Auto Show. As before, the Tacoma, Tundra, and 4Runner get the TRD Pro treatment. For 2019, all three come equipped with new 2.5-inch Fox Racing internal-bypass shock absorbers, as well as a handful of other off-road goodies.

Toyota claims the new shock absorbers balance off-road performance with a cushy ride. The shocks’ internal-bypass zones allow the stiffness of the suspension to be finely calibrated while keeping all of the hardware compact. All three TRD Pro vehicles also get model-specific tires: Goodyears for the Tacoma, Michelins for the Tundra, and Nittos for the 4Runner.

The Tacoma TRD Pro receives what is probably the coolest upgrade of all: a snorkel. These are widely available on the aftermarket, but are rarely installed on vehicles straight from the factory. A snorkel raises the engine’s air-intake point, which usually comes in handy when fording bodies of water. Toyota didn’t mention that usage, but did say the Tacoma’s snorkel helps stop the truck from ingesting silt and dust in the desert.

Both the Tacoma and Tundra also get TRD-specific exhaust systems, while the 4Runner gets a new roof rack. All three models will sport new front skid plates with red “TRD” lettering, and plenty more TRD badging elsewhere. Other notable upgrades include LED headlights and fog lights for the Tundra, and new JBL audio systems for the Tacoma and 4Runner.

It may not be familiar to many people, but Toyota Racing Development is the real deal. Started in 1979, it’s got multiple Baja 1000 and other off-road race victories to its credit, and is currently responsible for Toyota’s NASCAR program. Toyota just hasn’t made as much of an effort to channel that racing experience into road cars as some of its rivals have their with their performance divisions.

The 2019 Toyota TRD Pro models hit showrooms this fall. Pricing will be announced closer to the launch date.

Kia EV5: everything we know so far

Kia EV9 front exterior

Kia is expanding its EV lineup in a big way. The company is currently in the middle of rolling out the EV3, which is now available in Europe and is likely to come to the U.S. next year. Not only that, but it's also prepping the EV4, which it will likely announce more widely in 2025. And it's not stopping there either -- the Kia EV5 is a slightly scaled-back version of the much-loved EV9 SUV, and not only is it a vehicle we're excited about, but it's one that has already launched in Australia.

If the EV5 is anything like the EV9 -- only cheaper -- it'll be an instant success. Curious about whether the EV5 could be your next car? Here's everything we know about the EV5.
Design
Despite the lower number, the Kia EV5 is actually larger than the EV6 crossover — but not quite as large as the EV9 SUV. Kia calls it a “compact SUV” that offersa boxy design that’s similar to the EV9, but with only two rows of seats instead of three.

Trump administration prepares to end Biden’s EV tax incentive, report says

If you’re looking to buy or lease an electric vehicle (EV) and benefit from the Biden administration’s $7,500 tax incentive, you’d better act soon.

The transition team of the incoming Trump administration is already planning to end the credit, according to a report from Reuters citing sources with direct knowledge of the matter.

Kia EV4: everything we know so far

Kia EV4 Front

Kia is continuing to expand its electric car lineup. The EV6 and EV9 have both been out for some time now, and the company is in the middle of rolling out the EV3 in Europe, with a North American release expected next year. After that, it's likely the company will turn to the EV5. But what about after that? Well, that could be where the Kia EV4 comes in.

Kia announced a concept version of the EV4 at its EV Day in 2023, showing off a futuristic-looking hatchback that's seemingly a little smaller than the EV6, but keeps many design elements. Since then, Kia has confirmed very few details about it, though we have seen it shown off at other automotive events. Here's everything we know about the Kia EV4 so far.
Kia EV4 design
The Kia EV4, or at least the concept version of it, is smaller than the EV6, and much smaller than the EV9. It's actually closer in size to a sedan than anything else, though with its open trunk, it could be considered a hatchback. Regardless, it certainly blurs the line between the two. So much so, that in recent months we've actually seen a full hatchback version of the EV4 being tested -- and it's possible that Kia is pivoting the design of the EV4 entirely to be a hatch, or will be releasing both hatchback and sedan versions.
