Toyota just gave its 2027 TRD Pro lineup a color glow-up — and they named it after something you eat. Two new shades are joining the palette: Honeycomb for the Tundra, Sequoia, and Tacoma TRD Pro, and Hot Honey for the 4Runner. It’s not just a paint job — the 2027 TRD Pro models also arrive with new hardware upgrades that make them more capable off the pavement. Here’s every detail Toyota confirmed today.
Key Takeaways
- Honeycomb is the new exclusive TRD Pro color for Tundra, Sequoia, and Tacoma in 2027.
- Hot Honey is 4Runner-only — a slightly warmer, distinct shade in the same color family.
- FOX® Enhanced QS3 shocks with vehicle-specific tuning arrive on Tundra and Sequoia TRD Pro.
- Red tow hooks are now standard across TRD Pro models for a bold exterior accent.
- Pricing and full specs will be announced closer to production start in fall 2026.
Two New Colors, One Bold Statement
The TRD Pro has always been Toyota’s most visual statement in the truck world — a rolling proof that off-road capability and street presence aren’t mutually exclusive. For 2027, Toyota is leaning into that identity hard with Honeycomb, a bold warm-yellow exterior color that commands attention on and off the trail. It’s unmistakable in a parking lot and even more striking on a dirt switchback.
The 4Runner TRD Pro gets its own variation: Hot Honey, described as a “slightly different shade” in Toyota’s announcement. It’s the same high-impact color family, tuned to complement the 4Runner’s bolder, more upright body. Both Honeycomb and Hot Honey are exclusive to TRD Pro trim — you can’t spec them on lower grades. That exclusivity matters if you want a truck that stands out and actually backs it up with capability.
Upgraded Performance Inside and Out
A new color is great, but Toyota didn’t stop there. The 2027 Tundra and Sequoia TRD Pro both gain newly designed FOX® Enhanced QS3 shocks — engineered to be vehicle-specific and tuned to deliver improved feel, stability, and adjustability over rough terrain. QS3 means three-position adjustability, so you can dial the damping to match the trail condition without pulling out a wrench.
On the exterior, red tow hooks are now standard on TRD Pro models — a functional touch that adds rugged visual contrast to the bold new colors. For those who spend real time off-road (or just want the option), ISO-dynamic seats are available on both Tundra and Tacoma. These seats are designed to support stability and reduce driver fatigue when the terrain gets rough — a feature that matters a lot if you’re running technical trails for hours at a stretch. The full TRD Pro upgrade package shows Toyota is treating these trucks as serious tools, not just color options.
Which TRD Pro Gets Which Color
Toyota’s color strategy is deliberate: Honeycomb spans three trucks in the lineup — Tundra, Sequoia, and Tacoma — while Hot Honey is reserved specifically for the 4Runner. Here’s the quick breakdown for 2027 TRD Pro:
- Tundra TRD Pro: Honeycomb + FOX® QS3 shocks + red tow hooks + available ISO-dynamic seats
- Sequoia TRD Pro: Honeycomb + FOX® QS3 shocks + red tow hooks
- Tacoma TRD Pro: Honeycomb + red tow hooks + available ISO-dynamic seats
- 4Runner TRD Pro: Hot Honey (exclusive to this model) + red tow hooks
Each model also retains the full TRD Pro hardware suite that made them popular: skid plates, KDSS (on Sequoia/4Runner), TRD-tuned suspension, and TRD Pro badging inside and out. The new colors and hardware are additions, not replacements — the core TRD Pro package remains intact.
When Can You Order — and What Will It Cost?
Toyota hasn’t released pricing or a firm order date yet. The official word: full pricing and specifications will be announced closer to the start of production, which is scheduled for fall 2026. That means dealers won’t have these on lots until late 2026 or early 2027 at the earliest.
What we do know: the 2027 Tundra and Sequoia press releases have been updated to reflect the new TRD Pro content — if you want the deeper technical specs on powertrains and trim levels, those are the right places to look. For Tacoma and 4Runner, expect similar TRD Pro pricing premiums over their base grades as previous model years. If you’re planning to order one, now is a smart time to connect with your Toyota dealer and get on an allocation list before they fill up.
