By Jill Ciminillo Published: 2023-11-24T13:00:25+00:00 Updated: 2026-01-28T18:27:59+00:00 ![Featured image]() As we are in the final quarter of the year, we have a pretty good handle on what’s coming, and we’ve posted all our what’s new for 2024 stories. So, we figured we’d do a quick recap of the big changes for 2024 midsize trucks and link to more information if you want it. ### **\[Related content:[2024 midsize trucks compared: Tough choices]()\]** So, here it goes. ## **Overview for what’s new on 2024 midsize trucks** The Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon got their big changes for 2023, but Ford Ranger and Toyota Tacoma are all-new for this model year – which should make things interesting in the midsize truck segment. Honda Ridgeline gets a new trim, and the Nissan Frontier, well, coasts. ## **2024 Chevy Colorado** **Base price:** TBD, but 2023 starts at $30,695 **Trims:** WT, LT, TrailBoss (4WD only), Z71 (4WD only), ZR2 (4WD only) **What’s new?** The Chevy Colorado was [new for 2023](), but it sees [a couple significant changes]() for 2024 including a reduction of engine tunes and a bigger info screen for all trims. The other big change of note: The addition of the Bison edition. ## **2024 Ford Ranger** **Base price:** $34,160 **Trims:** XL, XLT, Lariat, Raptor (4WD only) **What’s new?** The Ford Ranger enters its [next generation for 2024]() with a new body-style, higher-tech interior and two powertrains. The biggest news, however, is that 2024 is the year of the Ranger Raptor with Fox shocks, 33-inch all-terrain tires and cool exterior graphics. ## **2024 GMC Canyon** **Base price:** TBD, but 2023 starts at $38,395 **Trims:** Elevation, AT4 (4WD only), Denali (4WD only), AT4X (4WD only) **What’s new?** Like the Colorado, the Canyon was [new for 2023](), so don’t expect any sweeping design or tech changes for 2024. The big news here is the addition of the super off-road capable AT4X AEV edition, which was [revealed in July]() and we [drove in October](). ## **2024 Honda Ridgeline** **Base price:** TBD, but 2023 starts at $40,175 **Trims:** Sport, RTL, TrailSport, Black Edition **What’s new?** The biggest change for the [2024 Honda Ridgeline]() includes the addition of a TrailSport model with an off-road suspension and all-terrain tires. But there are also a smattering of tech and design changes that give this truck a much-needed lift. ## **2024 Jeep Gladiator** **Base price:** TBD, but 2023 starts at $41,515 **Trims:** Sport, Sport S, Freedom, Willys, Rubicon, Rubicon X, Mojave, Mojave X, High Altitude, Rubicon FarOut **What’s New:** The [2024 Jeep Gladiator]() gets a mid-cycle refresh with some exterior design tweaks and cool new tech as well as Mojave X and Rubicon X trims with more standard off-road goodies. The diesel powertrain is dropped, but the manual transmission remains. What it doesn’t get: a 4XE powertrain. ## **2024 Nissan Frontier** **Base price:** $31,265 **Trims:** S, SV, Pro-X, Pro-4X, SL **What’s new?** The Nissan Frontier is one of the few midsize trucks that still offers a variety of bed and cabin options, which keeps it competitive without big changes. [For 2024](), it adds a retro Hardbody edition and a top-tier SL trim on the Crew Cab. ## **2024 Toyota Tacoma** **Base price:** TBD, but 2023 starts at $28,220 **Trims:** SR, SR5, TRD PreRunner, TRD Sport, TRD Off Road, Limited, TRD Pro, Trailhunter **What’s new?** From the mini-Tundra design to the powertrains to the upgraded tech, pretty much everything is new on the [2024 Toyota Tacoma](). Additionally, you’ll see new cab/bed configurations as well as a super-cool off-roady Trailhunter trim. What’s not new: Tacoma keeps the manual transmission option for the next-gen. ## **What about a Ram 2024 midsize truck?** In a word: Nope. However, [thanks to the UAW strike](), we have recently received confirmation there will be a [2027 Ram midsize truck]() built in Belvediere, Ill. We don’t have much more information – not even a name – but now it’s been revealed it’s coming, we’re hoping Stellantis will take pity on us and dole out some details soon. ## **The bottom line** There is a lot going on in the 2024 midsize truck segment – from new tech to new trims to completely new trucks. Other than the glaring omission of midsize Ram truck, 2024 is going to be a great year to buy if you’re looking for a lot of options. ### **2024 Midsize Trucks Photo Gallery:** [2024 Chevy Colorado]() 2024 Chevy Colorado Bison (Image courtesy of Chevrolet) [2024 Ford Ranger]() 2024 Ford Ranger XLT trim, global model shown.
