Another day and another teaser image for the 2024 Toyota Tacoma with this time a JBL portable speaker showing the Tacoma will rock!

 

The teaser image is part of a broader campaign for the 2024 Toyota Tacoma to build up excitement for the all-new model. We have seen new [rear disc brakes](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2023/04/2024-toyota-tacoma-teaser-fest-continues-with-rear-disc-brakes/>), [ARB bumper](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2023/04/new-images-show-2024-toyota-tacoma-trd-pro-in-more-detail/>) and some design clues for the [TRD PRO model](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2023/04/new-engine-name-2024-toyota-tacoma-i-force-max/>) as well as other teaser images.

 

## **JBL portable speaker rocks**

 

Toyota revealed the teaser via email this time, not Instagram like in the past, with the password of “TacoRocks” and yet there’s more to it than that.

 

First, the [JBL speaker](<https://www.jbl.com/bluetooth-speakers/?ged=off&acctid=21700000001715200&dskeywordid=43700075610372587&lid=43700075610372587&ds_s_kwgid=58700008320175633&device=c&network=g&matchtype=e&locationid=9010328&creative=652592921030&targetid=kwd-1913347087&campaignid=19820898921&adgroupid=148677772044%7D&kxconfid=unnmhyek8&gclid=CjwKCAjw9J2iBhBPEiwAErwpea6grgfQhc-8DaKShwSOHpNba9a-N2OFldk3xXVoDLiMcfuqrmCPEhoCbqsQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds>) looks like a bluetooth connected model with wireless charging on the dash. It is probably also weather proof and portable within a certain distance to the truck. These kinds of speakers have become popular for listening to music while relaxing on a trail or campsite.

 

![2024 Toyota Tacoma JBL portable speaker](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/MY24_Tacoma_TEASER_JBL_001-740x444.jpg>)Second, we have a better look at the tailgate and can see “Tacoma” spelled out, upside down on the tailgate. Why do this? When you drop the tailgate, people can still see it is a Tacoma.

 

That is an interesting design feature and I’ll be interested to see how people modify it to stand out even more like with inlaid lettering popular in the truck crowd.

 

## **What to expect from the 2024 Toyota Tacoma**

 

While the teasers are curious, here’s what (we think) we know about the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. It’ll have:

 
- One, if not two, [hybrid powertrains](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2022/12/hybrid-confirmed-new-2024-toyota-tacoma-hybrid-spy-photos-confirm-suspicions/>).
- [A coil-link suspension](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2023/01/next-gen-2024-toyota-tacoma-nearly-production-ready-spied-with-new-features/>) like the Tundra.
- A [vastly upgraded](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2022/06/what-to-expect-from-the-2024-toyota-tacoma/>) and tech-forward interior.
- Strong Tundra styling cues, including [the grille mustache](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2022/06/what-to-expect-from-the-2024-toyota-tacoma/>).

 

All of this is based on educated guesses and spy photos.

 

## **The bottom line**

 

More teasers are coming as Toyota builds up the excitement for the new truck. While the when it will be revealed is still a secret, the more clues we get, the more there is to talk about. Maybe we will be back with more next TacoTuesday or … maybe we can finally see the full truck. Stay tuned.
