The Toyota Tacoma’s SR5 trim, which drops just above the base SR trim in the popular midsize truck pecking order, gets a few extra perks for 2023 in the form of two new packages. Called the SX package and the Chrome package, the additions offer a bit of extra panache without costing a fortune. In addition to these packages, the V-6 SR5 now features Smart Key operation (including the standard front passenger door) and a 10-way power driver’s seat with two-way power lumbar support.

The SX pack, already available on the SR version, has been extended to the SR5 grade. SX adds some visual interest through blacked-out trinkets: fender flares, trim, badging and side mirrors. Black 16-inch wheels with complementary lug nuts also replace the standard SR5 wheels. The SX kit is capped with a special bed graphic. Customers can get the SX package on two- and four-wheel-drive Tacoma Access Cabs or Double Cab SR5s with the optional 3.5-liter V6 engine.

The Chrome Package adds — you guessed it — splashes of chrome to the 2023 Toyota Tacoma SR5 Double Cab two- and four-wheel drive (also with V-6). The exterior door handles, exhaust tip and tailgate insert with “Tacoma” script are finished in chrome, and the large 18-inch wheels are polished alloy. Inside, there’s a leather-wrapped shift knob, which isn’t chrome but still looks nice.

Finally, as almost every year brings a funky new paint color option to the top-of-the-line, off-road-ready Tacoma TRD Pro, 2023 is no different. A bright orange tint called Solar Octane is the exclusive exterior color of the 2023 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, joining White, Magnetic Gray Metallic and Black.
