2014 Toyota Tundra Limited


Recap

The Tundra is Toyota's full-size vehicle, slotting over the Tacoma. It is offered with three engine choices, back- or 4x4, three cab configurations, as well as with a typical or lengthy bed.

Lorry Review

The Tundra is a tiny player in the full-size vehicle segment because of its aging powertrains and absence of refinement compared with rivals from General Motors, Ford, as well as Ram. A 4.0-liter V-6 generating 270 hp and 278 lb-ft of torque, a 4.6-liter V-8 making 310 hp and 327 lb-ft, and also a 5.7-liter V-8 generating 381 hp as well as 401 lb-ft paired to a five- or six-speed automatic rollover from the pre-refresh Tundra. Toyota improved the truck by improving the flight high quality, retuning the suspension for far better stability, and minimizing roadway noise to improve comfort on-road. Off the pavement, the vehicle stays comfortable, straining harsh surface areas. Pertaining to fuel economy, the EPA rates the rear-drive Toyota Tundra 16/20 mpg city/highway for V-6 versions, 15/19 mpg with the 4.6-liter V-8, and 13/18 with the 5.7-liter V-8. Four-wheel drive is only readily available on the V-8 designs and they are ranked at 14/18 mpg for the 4.6-liter while the 5.7-liter achieves 13/17 mpg.

While Toyota improved the 2014 Tundra's interior, it hangs back rivals due to uneven use soft as well as tough plastics. Wind sound continues to be a problem despite initiatives to make the cabin a lot more exceptional than previously. Enhanced seats make the cabin a better place to hang out in while the spacious rear seats have enough space for full-sized adults. The addition of a new infomercial system and also conventional Entune Costs Audio updates the 2014 Tundra.

Depending upon the design, the Toyota Tundra has a 3- and also four-star overall security rating from the NHTSA (out of a feasible five stars) while IIHS has actually offered it a good ranking throughout four categories (great is the greatest feasible rating) other than the tiny overlap front group, where it has not been checked.

What We Believe

The Tundra's carryover powertrains hold it back when as compared to full-size trucks from GM, Ford, and also Ram, which are outfitted with advanced and also reliable engines and transmissions. In a First Test evaluation of a 2014 Tundra 1794 CrewMax Edition, we claimed that the brand-new version continuouslies drag its competitors in fuel economy, showing a "Texas-size crave gas." Additionally, in our Initial Drive review, we kept in mind the deceptive nature of the interior, which "looked like a strong chunk of aluminum taken off an Audi as well as really feeling 3-cent plastic."
