What makes the Prerunner so special is it's intended design as an offroad racer. With that in mind, TRD racing specialists took the existing Tacoma and beefed-up the suspension by raising it nearly 2 feet off the ground, then adding Bilstein Shocks and 31 inch tires. Then they added a 3.4 liter DOHC V-6 upgrading from a 2.4 liter four. Normally aspirated she produces 190bhp. (To put that into perspective that's about the strength of 2 and a half Toyota Hi-Lux engines.) She's more than capable of travelling 100mph (160kph) easily. To the surprise of many she's been known to overtake other trucks and cars uphill with no strain.
