Toyota Honeycomb paintLike many other men and women of good taste, I'm worn out on greyscale vehicles. Sure—white, black, and grey cars look sleek, cool, and so on. But they're boring. Most automakers would rather sell a dozen shades of the same few hues than offer something that's not for everyone. Not Toyota, though, as it just dropped another cool color for its TRD Pro off-roaders. It's yellow, and it's called Honeycomb.This new paint seems pretty shifty, but in a good way. Its finish appears almost eggshell or satin in the shadows, but once it gets in the sun, it pops. Honeycomb is a little less loud than Toyota's last TRD Pro special color, WaveMaker, but it's just as singular. I can't think of another yellow truck off the top of my head besides that gimmicky Hummer special edition.ToyotaHoneycomb is available on the 2027 Tundra and Sequoia TRD Pro, while the Tacoma and 4Runner high-po off-road variants get a slightly different shade called Hot Honey. I sincerely can't tell the difference between them, although it's apparently significant enough for Toyota to distinguish them by name. Both look pretty good under the setting sun.AdvertisementAdvertisementToyota rolled out some other incremental updates for the 2027 Tundra and Sequoia TRD Pro. While we're still waiting for the full-fledged TRD Hammer pickup, the company is dressing up the models we do get with standard red tow hooks and "Fox-enhanced" QS3 adjustable shocks. Those trick ISO-Dynamic seats with the air shocks in the back are also available on the Tundra now.ToyotaWhether or not you dig the Honeycomb color family, you can hopefully agree that more colors on cars is a good thing. And as far as visibility goes, it's still a lot more subtle than the Solar Octane orange that Toyota rocked for a while.Got a tip or question for the author? Contact them directly: caleb@thedrive.com
