2026 Toyota Tundra

2026 Toyota Tundra Overview

The 2026 Toyota Tundra elevates its full-size pickup formula with bold updates, enhanced capability, and refined comfort. It continues as a top contender for drivers seeking a rugged yet luxurious truck that balances power with modern features.

Design & Capability
Built on a robust body-on-frame chassis, the Tundra is available in Double Cab and CrewMax configurations, with multiple bed lengths. The TRD Pro brings true off-road credentials, while the platinum-tier models lean more toward premium refinement.

Powertrain Options
There are two main powertrain choices:

  • A twin-turbo V6 delivering around 389 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque (base trims produce 348 hp / 405 lb-ft).

  • A hybrid i-FORCE MAX powertrain combining the twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor, yielding about 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque.

All powertrains come with a 10-speed automatic transmission, available in both rear-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations. The maximum towing capacity reaches up to 12,000 pounds, with the hybrid version offering excellent torque and versatility.

Comfort & Interior Features
Luxury touches across trims include:

  • Shale premium leather seats in Capstone

  • Leather upgrades in Limited models

  • ISO Dynamic seats optional on TRD Pro for enhanced comfort

  • Power running boards on higher trims

  • Rear air vents and smart climate control across configurations

  • A standard 32.2-gallon fuel tank and integrated tow hitch with connector on all models

Technology & Safety
Every model comes with an updated Toyota Multimedia system, offering:

  • A choice of 8-inch or available 14-inch touchscreens

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration

  • USB-A and USB-C ports, Bluetooth and optional satellite radio
    Safety is supported by Toyota Safety Sense 2.5, including a suite of driver-assist features along with eight airbags, backup camera, and automatic tire monitoring.

Notable Changes for 2026
Toyota has added new exterior colors (e.g., “Wave Maker” blue for TRD Pro), upgraded interior upholstery in premium trims, and made equipment like tow hitches, smart climate function, and larger fuel tanks standard across the lineup.

Recalls & Safety Notices
A safety recall has been issued for certain Tundra models (2022–2025) due to potential reverse light failure caused by moisture ingress. Repairs are provided at no cost to owners.
