Since it was first introduced over two decades ago, Toyota’s Tundra has become synonymous with reliability and ruggedness. With a variety of configurations, including three truck bed lengths and an off-road specialist model, the full-sized pickup is suited for just about any need. Take a closer look at the 2023 Toyota Tundra!

Powertrain Options

While the SR model comes standard with a powerful, twin-turbocharged 3.4L i-Force V6 that puts out 358 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque, other trims offer a higher output version of the engine developing 389 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. For the biggest jobs, you’ll want to opt for the incredible 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque generated by the available hybrid V6: also good for a 0 to 60 time of under six seconds.

Whichever powerplant you prefer, it’ll be partnered with an electronically controlled 10-speed automatic transmission featuring a sequential shift mode and a shift logic that can optimize itself for steep inclines.

Off-Road Performance

In addition to its outstanding four-wheel drive system, the Tundra is available with several features that aid in conquering the most challenging trails. For instance, the new Crawl Control system automatically applies the throttle and brakes at low speeds so that you can better focus on navigating through the terrain ahead of you. Multi-Terrain Select’s rock, sand, and mud modes adjust engine response and traction control for a variety of environments.

Coming standard with both Crawl Control and Multi-Terrain Select, the Tundra TRD Pro is the ultimate off-roading model. It also gets specially tuned off-road suspension and 2.5-inch Fox internal bypass coilovers. Extra protection for this model’s fuel tank, engine, and transfer case comes in the form of durable Xply Armor undercovers.

Towing and Hauling Capability

The Tundra is a truly impressive towing machine, able to tow up to 12,000 pounds. Maximum payload capacity is also excellent at up to 1,940 pounds. With the available 7-pin connector, which can automatically detect a trailer’s length, and two tow/haul modes, the Tundra makes it easier than ever to move large loads around.

Tundras with the Double Cab body have the choice between a 6.5- or 8.1-foot truck bed. The CrewMax can be fitted with a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed.

Interior

A generous amount of space, premium materials, and amenities make the Tundra’s passenger cabin especially inviting. Available semi-aniline leather trim, heated and ventilated seats, and American walnut trim add extra-luxurious touches. When taking the truck for a trip into the great outdoors, the available panoramic moonroof slides open to provide a wide view of the sky above.

As for infotainment, the Tundra offers an 8- or 14-inch touchscreen system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, streaming services from Apple Music, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Theater-quality sound is delivered by the available 1,200-watt, 12-speaker JBL premium audio system and its QuantumLogic technology.
