Proving it for over 50 years

With a lineage that goes back more than 50 years and iconic nameplates like Land Cruiser and Hilux, Toyota trucks have come to define the word "tough." And there are few things tougher than the 2021 Toyota Tundra full-size pickup. With its powerful 5.7-liter V8 and overbuilt drivetrain, properly equipped Tundras can tow up to 10,200 lbs. Grades like Tundra Platinum and 1794 Edition mean you can haul all that cargo in style and comfort too. So whether you’re looking to haul lumber to the worksite or simply haul through the desert, there’s a 2021 Tundra built just for you.

Built for the USA

Tundra bleeds red, white and blue. Built by Americans for Americans, Tundra is designed in California and Michigan with the American consumer in mind right from the start. Testing is done in Michigan, where engineering teams put Tundra through some of the harshest conditions a truck could face to make sure it can tackle everything your weekend, worksite and family can throw at it. And, in Texas,* a dedicated team proudly assembles every Tundra you see on the road today. It's our continuing commitment to offer a full-size pickup truck built with quality that you and every American can depend on. *Assembled in Texas with U.S. and globally sourced parts.

1794 Edition interior

With more than just muscle, the 1794 Edition CrewMax represents a leap forward in full-size truck luxury. This is everything you want in a premium truck, and maybe more. Every part of the interior has been refined, from the premium perforated leather-trimmed seats with heated and ventilated front seats, to the wood-grain-style accents that add to its classic Western look.

Platinum interior

The Platinum CrewMax excels at transporting passengers in the lap of luxury. As you slide into the premium quilted and perforated leather-trimmed seating with heated and ventilated front seats, you’ll appreciate a vehicle that’s as comfortable as it is capable.

The Tundra TRD Family

TRD Sport: 20-in. alloy wheels

When you look this good, it’s okay to show off a little. That’s why Tundra TRD Sport rides on bold 20-in. TRD Sport Package alloy wheels.

TRD Sport: Bilstein® shocks

Power is nothing without control. That's why we equipped Tundra TRD Sport with high-performance Bilstein shocks. Part of a highly engineered system that includes TRD-designed anti-sway bars, these shocks help make you and Tundra one with the road.

TRD Sport: sport-tuned anti-sway bars

Exclusive to Tundra TRD Sport is a unique set of sport-tuned anti-sway bars featuring a solid 36-mm. anti-sway bar up front and a solid 25-mm. rear anti-sway bar. Designed to optimize on-road street performance, these parts deliver sharper turn-in response, flatter cornering and more heartbeats per minute.

TRD Off-Road: 18-in. wheels

Tundra TRD Off-Road flexes its style on- and off-road with these athletic 18-in. wheels. Constructed from cast aluminum and wrapped in Michelin® all-terrain tires, these wheels ensure Tundra TRD Off-Road looks its best wherever it goes.

TRD Off-Road: Bilstein® shocks

Tundra TRD Off-Road gets a unique suspension all its own. 46-mm. monotube-type Bilstein® struts sit at all four corners, with dual-rate coil springs up front and unique dual-rate leaf springs in the rear. This beefy suspension lets this truck take on the punishing stuff without the punishing ride.

TRD Off-Road: skid plate

Bringing added protection to your next off-road adventure is a standard system of off-road skid plates. Designed with the perfect fit, these steel plates protect Tundra's engine and transfer case, while a resin cover helps armor up the fuel tank.

Performance

i-FORCE 5.7L V8

Tundra’s 346 cu.-in. i-FORCE 5.7L V8 produces 381 hp and 401 lb.-ft. of torque. Pair it to a 6-speed automatic transmission with a standard Tow Package that includes added engine and transmission oil coolers, and you’ve got one truck with heavy-duty towing capabilities.

Active Traction Control

Tundra models equipped with 4WD include an A-TRAC system that optimizes traction across the front and rear axles simultaneously, helping improve grip on low-traction surfaces. This A-TRAC system also allows full use of the 2-speed transfer case, so you always have on-demand access to Tundra’s incredible torque.

Automatic Limited-Slip Differential

Standard on all Tundras, Auto LSD works like a traditional limited-slip differential—with a high-tech twist. Instead of controlling slip mechanically, Auto LSD applies brakes individually to wheels with no traction. And unlike Traction Control, it doesn't cut engine power. This helps give you control and distributes power where it’s most effective. Best of all, because the system utilizes the brake system, there are no extra components that add to overall ownership costs.

Powerful front brakes

A big part of controlling a trailer is having the ability to stop it. Massive 13.9-in. front brake rotors and beefy 4-piston front brake calipers help Tundra keep speeds in check—even when hauling those heavy loads.

Massive ring gear

To handle the torque of Tundra’s i-FORCE 5.7L V8, our engineers fitted the rear differential with a massive 10.5-in. ring gear. This allows use of an aggressive 4.30 rear axle ratio to help amplify and transfer to the ground the 401 lb.-ft. of torque the 5.7L V8 produces.

Technology

Integrated Navigation

With Tundra's available 8-in. high-resolution touchscreen display and Integrated Navigation, you'll find your way, no problem.

By pairing your compatible Android™ phone with Tundra, you can access your Google Assistant™ get real-time traffic alerts, make and receive phone calls, listen to your favorite soundtrack or find a place to eat—all with just your voice. Screen depiction accurate at time of posting.

The customizable 4.2-in. Multi-Information Display (MID) provides odometer, tripmeter, instant/average fuel economy, distance to empty, average speed, trip timer, and an Integrated Trailer Brake Controller monitoring screen. All this, right where the driver needs it most: right in front of them.

Available Smart Key System

The available Smart Key System is a convenient piece of technology that lets you unlock the front doors without taking your keys out of your pocket or purse.

Capability

Available 10,200-lb. towing capacity

Thanks to a heavy-duty TripleTech® frame that features an integrated tow hitch receiver, plus a trailer hitch that utilizes 12 high-strength bolts that go directly into the frame, Tundra can flex its muscle to tow up to 10,200 lbs. And Tundra has been SAE J2807-rated since 2010—adopting the standard tow ratings as set by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).

Standard Tow Package

Tundra comes standard with a tow hitch receiver, a heavy-duty battery and more intelligent features engineered to make towing as easy as possible.

Available 1730-lb. payload capacity

Long or short, Tundra’s open bed makes it easy to take on home improvement projects or last-minute getaways, with ease. When properly equipped, Tundra has a payload capacity of up to 1730 lbs.

38-gallon fuel tank

The workday doesn’t stop for gas, and neither do you. With Tundra’s available 38-gallon fuel tank—the largest in its segment—you can rest assured that you’ve got the fuel you’ll need for life’s longer hauls.

Integrated Trailer Brake Controller/Trailer-Sway Control

Big trucks tow big toys, which is why Tundra's available Integrated Trailer Brake Controller (ITBC) and standard Trailer-Sway Control (TSC) are so important. These features not only let you adjust the amount of trailer braking based on the weight of the trailer,* but they also detect trailer sway and apply brake pressure at individual wheels to help keep everything stabilized. *Compatible trailer required.

TOW/HAUL Mode and 4-/7-pin connector

Tundra’s 4-/7-pin connector is integrated into the rear bumper and is ready for any compatible trailer. Hitch up and plug in, and Tundra will intelligently hold on to lower gears longer to avoid excessive shifting or “hunting” for the right gear when towing. This system also increases throttle response, pulling power and engine braking, helping you tow with confidence.

Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P)

Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection

The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD) is designed to help detect a vehicle or a pedestrian in certain situations. Using both a camera and radar, PCS w/PD can provide an audio/visual alert to warn you of a possible collision under certain circumstances. If you don’t react, the system is designed to automatically brake.

Lane Departure Alert

By detecting visible white/yellow lane markings at speeds above 32 mph, Lane Departure Alert (LDA) is designed to issue an audio/visual alert if an inadvertent lane departure is detected.

Automatic High Beams

The Automatic High Beams (AHB) safety system is designed to help you see more clearly at night at speeds above 25 mph. The AHB system can detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and taillights of preceding vehicles, then automatically toggles between high and low beams accordingly.

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

Intended for highway use, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) lets you drive at a preset speed. DRCC is designed to function at speeds of 25-110 mph and uses vehicle-to-vehicle distance control, helping maintain a preset distance from the vehicle ahead of you.

Tundra TRD Pro

18-in. forged BBS® wheels

Standard on every Tundra TRD Pro is a set of forged-aluminum BBS® wheels that reduce unsprung mass by 3.35 lbs. per wheel. Not only does this help improve cornering response, but it also enhances overall ride quality.

TRD-tuned FOX® suspension

This is the real deal. Up front, TRD-tuned springs coil themselves around heavy-duty FOX® shocks. Tuned by TRD, these shocks feature a beefy 46-mm. piston and 11 bypass zones to help control the front wheels’ extra 1.5 inches of travel. The rear gets two extra inches of travel, plus equally massive FOX shocks with 12 bypass zones and 2.5-in. piggyback reservoirs.

Aluminum skid plate

Tough as nails and ¼-in. thick, the TRD aluminum skid plate helps armor the underside of Tundra TRD Pro. It looks good, too, with TRD lettering for extra attitude.

A tuned dual exhaust

Tundra TRD Pro comes standard with a dual exhaust featuring black chrome exhaust tips. This mandrel-bent exhaust not only amplifies this truck’s good looks; it also unleashes the growl of the powerful 5.7-liter V8.

Rigid Industries® fog lights

Designed for an OEM-perfect fit, these Rigid Industries® LED fog lights pack a lot of brightness into a compact package. Rugged construction and a 35-degree wide-angle beam pattern help ensure you have light when, and where, you need it.

Leather-trimmed seating

Inside, the driver and front passenger seats are branded with the TRD Pro logo, and leather-trimmed seating lets everyone ride in style. Red contrast stitching accents the dash, seats and armrests, bringing just the right amount of flair. A TRD shift knob, TRD Pro-branded floor mats and center-console emblem help complete this interior's bold, distinctive look.

Utility

Tundra Trail Special Edition

The new Tundra Trail Special Edition is ready to help get you out there. Take on all the bumps on and off the road with beefy 18-in. alloy wheels wrapped with Michelin® all-terrain tires, while keeping all your gear in one place using its lockable bed storage boxes. So whether you’re checking out a new campsite or heading to your favorite fishing spot, this Tundra’s ready to go.

Center console

Opt for available front bucket seats, and you'll get a large center console with a covered storage compartment. A 12V auxiliary power outlet is also there whenever you need to plug in.

Fold-up rear seats

To create even more usable cabin space, the rear seats in the Double Cab and CrewMax fold up, instead of flat. This not only creates more room; it also makes it easier to load cargo.

Rear power window

Let the outside in. Tundra's class-exclusive available power vertical window lets you roll the entire rear glass all the way down with the simple press of a button.

Deck rail system

Pile it on: Tundra can take it. The available deck rail system incorporates four adjustable tie-down cleats, each rated at 220 lbs., to help keep your cargo secure.

Safety and Convenience

Standard backup camera

Tundra’s standard backup camera helps make hitching up that boat a bit easier. When you shift into Reverse, the 7-in. or available 8-in. touchscreen displays an image of what the camera sees behind you.

Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert

As the first full-size pickup to offer Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), Tundra continues to redefine the segment. When the available Blind Spot Monitor detects a vehicle, it illuminates a warning indicator on the appropriate outside mirror to alert you to the presence of another vehicle, helping you to determine when it's safe to change lanes. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert works in much the same way. When you slowly back out of a driveway or parking spot, it provides audible and visual indicators to help warn you of approaching vehicles.

Star Safety System™

Tundra comes standard with the Star Safety System™, a suite of six advanced safety features that includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA) and Smart Stop Technology® (SST).

Eight airbags

Tundra comes equipped with driver and front outboard passenger airbags, side curtain and front seat-mounted side airbags.

LATCH

To help keep children safe and secure, Tundra has LATCH, which stands for "Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren." With lower anchors on the outboard rear seats and a tether anchor on the rear center seat, LATCH allows you to securely mount a child seat quickly and easily.

No cost maintenance plan and Roadside Assistance

Every new Toyota comes with ToyotaCare, a maintenance plan that covers normal factory scheduled service for 2 years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first, and 24-hour Roadside Assistance for 2 years, unlimited mileage.
