Hybrid TRD Pro Tacoma's MPG Real World Highway Test @ 70 MPH

[Gastan]

Since we don't have 2025 4Runner TRD Pro MPG figures yet (EPA or real world tested), for reference -- here's the first real world MPG test I've seen for the 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro (preproduction model).



Results:
20 mpg cruising at 70 MPH / 61F degree outside temperature
360 miles on single tank of gas

I thought hybrids got greater benefit at lower mphs. Or when city driving or stop/go tends to be more beneficials. The more consistent speed you are at ie. highway driving the less you need that hybrid side to engage.

20 mpg cruising at 70 mph doesn't sound that good.

Those tires are good for a negative mpg on the highway as well.

1m mark, had some stats skewed up.

Well, at least one can use regular grade gasoline I presume? For whatever bizarre reason, the new Land Cruiser demands premium 91 grade fuel. Same drive train, but evidentially tuned for the higher grade.

The Turbo takes regular gas, but I cannot find the hybrid model on Fueleconomy.gov

It’s exactly the same engine for both hybrid and non hybrid.
