I don't think it'll be hard to tell the two apart on the road. When you put the two side by side, the headlights are the closest resemblance but the rest is easy to distinguish for me.
Not 4th gen Tacoma obviously, but interesting direct comparison review of a 3rd gen vs the Jeep Gladiator, by a current owner of both. Worth a watch IMO
Good work! I bet that is close to the final product. It blends the Tundra influences and the EV truck concept nicely.
