The Tundra’s 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged V6 petrol engine produces 290kW of power at 5200rpm and 649Nm of torque between 2400-3600rpm. This is paired with an electric motor which adds another 36kW/250Nm, resulting in a class-leading combined output of 326kW and 790Nm.

The Toyota Tundra's interior has a spacious and airy ambience with a high standard of fit and finish. Both model grades feature predominantly grey interior hues, with subtle satin chrome and piano black highlights.

Standard equipment for the Toyota Tundra's Limited model grade includes 20-inch alloy wheels with 265/60R20 tyres and ‘space saver’ spare, LED lighting, automatic ‘active’ front spoiler, a power tailgate, a 3500kg towing kit, front seat heating/cooling, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a 12-speaker JBL audio system with a 14-inch multimedia touchscreen, wireless phone charging and a power sliding rear glass to name a few.

The top-shelf Platinum adds unique black-painted 20-inch alloys, a mesh grille with dark chrome surround, a tailgate spoiler, a panoramic sunroof, leather-accented trim, 10-way power adjust front seats, heating/cooling for the outer rear seats, a heated steering wheel with power tilt-reach adjustment, a 10.9-inch colour head-up display and more.

The Toyota Tundra has seating for up to five occupants, with front buckets for two and a rear bench seat for three.

The Toyota Tundra can accelerate from 0-100km/h in approximately six seconds and has an electronically controlled top speed of 170km/h.

Toyota does not publish fuel consumption figures for the Tundra, given its GVM exceeds 3.5 tonnes.

CarsGuide real-world testing achieved average combined consumption of 15.8L/100km, which is in the same ballpark as the mid-teen figures we've achieved in six and eight-cylinder US rivals.

So, based on our numbers, the Tundra should have a driving range of around 800km from its big 122-litre tank, which according to Toyota requires 95 RON petrol.
