Toyota has not given out official news on the pricing for the upcoming 2016 Tacoma model. However, leaked documents surfaced on Tacoma World forums and an observant reader was lucky and fast enough to capture them, providing comprehensive pricing and configuration info for the remodeled pickup.

The leak came from the company's dealers meeting held on June 24 in Los Angeles and it stated that the price would range from $22,000 to $39,375.

Based on the leaked documents, it appears that if Tacoma will make its public appearance, it will have a starting price of $22,000 — that's for the entry level Tacoma Access Cab that features a four-cylinder engine.

Apart from the pricing information, it was also revealed that the new Tacoma will not have a single-cab configuration. Furthermore, the two-wheel-drive manual option will be removed, but a 4WD manual option in pickup trucks remains.

According to Autoevolution, the Tacoma base model will be more expensive compared to Chevrolet Colorado base model, which is sold at $20,120.

While, the prices are subject to change, Jalopnik noted in its report that the documents seem legit, so auto enthusiasts should be hopeful that those prices will remain that way when the new Tacoma hits dealerships by fall.

It seems that Toyota won't be competing with General Motors when it comes to price, but rather on interior modifications, engine performance, and new technology.

The upcoming 2016 Tacoma will be the first in the car industry to have a GoPro mount as part of its standard feature, reports Bloomberg. However, buyers will still need to purchase a GoPro camera since it's not included.

Toyota considers the collaboration as a "low-cost way" to attract buyers who like to take a trip through muddy trails in Texas or rough terrains in Utah.

The Japanese automobile company got the idea of collaborating with GoPro from socializing with off-roaders who participate in events such as the Lone Star Toyota Jamboree and Rock Therapy.

For the past five years, Toyota has observed an increasing number of owners taking cameras with them and mounting them onto their truck's windshield, said Michael Sweers, chief engineer of Tacoma and a GoPro cam owner himself.
