Some of the safety features that contribute to the Tacoma's high safety rating include:
* Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P): This suite of active safety features includes pre-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic high beams.
* Vehicle Stability Control (VSC): VSC helps to prevent loss of control by automatically applying the brakes and reducing engine power when necessary.
* Traction Control (TRAC): TRAC helps to prevent the wheels from slipping when accelerating or driving on slippery surfaces.
* Anti-lock Brakes (ABS): ABS helps to prevent the wheels from locking up during braking, which can lead to loss of control.
* Hill Start Assist (HSA): HSA helps to prevent the truck from rolling back when starting on a hill.
