2025 Toyota Tundra

Toyota mostly fulfills its reputation for building efficient and exceptionally reliable vehicles. Most of their models do well in our testing, thanks to their impressive fuel economy, comfortable rides, quiet cabins, and ease of getting in and out. All of this makes Toyotas among the best options for used vehicles. The brand was a hybrid pioneer, starting with the original Prius. Toyota has evolved and expanded that technology, and most vehicles in its lineup are available as a hybrid. Toyota also sells a number of plug-in hybrids, which were once called Prime but are now simply referred to as Plug-in. The company also knows how to add a dose of excitement into its lineup. The GR86, GR Corolla, and Supra are legit, fun-to-drive sports cars. However, some models we’ve tested have been disappointing. The company’s EV, the bZ4X SUV, is mediocre.

The redesigned 2022 Toyota Tundra has new powertrains and coil springs for the rear suspension, generous towing capacity, a rich roster of safety features, and a contemporary multimedia system. The Tundra gives up its V8 engine and can be configured with a choice of two twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engines: a 389-hp standard engine (358 for the SR trim) and a 437-hp hybrid. Both engines are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Maximum tow capacity is 12,000 pounds, with maximum payload now 1,940 pounds. The bed is made of dent-resistant composite material. The Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 suite is standard on every Tundra trim level, with FCW, AEB with pedestrian warning, LDW, LCA, ACC, and rear seat reminder.
