6 Key Features of the 2023 Toyota Tundra

1. The Hybrid Powertrain

There are a few engine options with the Tundra, but the most notable is the i-Force MAX Powertrain. The hybrid option offers 437 horsepower and 583 lb.-ft of torque. It comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission.

This powerful hybrid option stands out with its great performance. As a bonus, the coil-spring rear suspension provides a comfortable ride even over rough terrain.

2. The Towing Capacity

There is a wide selection of engine options with the Tundra and this means your towing capacity will vary. You can make this truck into a great vehicle for the occasional house move or for working an intense construction job. The Tundra has a maximum towing capacity of 12,000 pounds. The maximum payload is 1,940 pounds.

3. The Trailer Assist Features

If you’re going to be doing a lot of towing, you’ll appreciate the available assist features. The 2023 Tundra offers a backup guide that uses sensors and cameras to help you maintain a straight line. A blind spot monitor is an available assist feature that warns you when another car enters your blind spot.

There’s also a rear-cross traffic alert. The driver will see warnings appear on their side mirrors and will hear a warning tone to let them know. There’s also an optional automated Integrated Trailer Brake Controller that will sense when the trailer is hooked up. It will then get a read on how long the trailer is and activate the warning sensors you’ll need as you drive.

4. The Touchscreen

Drivers who love a great touchscreen will want to sign up for the available 14.0-inch option. This gets you a multimedia touchscreen that connects with a Panoramic View Monitor, providing a 360-degree view around your Tundra. You can choose different views on the screen.

5. The Large Multi-Information Display

The Tundra comes with a 12.3-inch full-color Multi-Informational Display. This provides a view of your truck’s navigation system, towing information, and audio system controls.

6. Available Wireless Charging

If you’d like to stop fidgeting with a charging cord in your truck, there’s an available option for wireless charging. This provides a convenient spot to place your phone while you drive. It also allows you to keep your phone charged in the center console without any effort on your part.
