Toyota Tundra 2014
Recap
The Tundra is Toyota's full-size truck, slotting over the Tacoma. It is available with three engine selections, rear- or four-wheel drive, three taxicab arrangements, and also with a conventional or lengthy bed.
Car Summary
The Tundra is a little player in the full-size vehicle sector due to its aging powertrains and also absence of improvement as compared to competitors from General Motors, Ford, and Ram. A 4.0-liter V-6 producing 270 hp and 278 lb-ft of torque, a 4.6-liter V-8 making 310 hp as well as 327 lb-ft, as well as a 5.7-liter V-8 producing 381 hp and 401 lb-ft combined to a 5- or six-speed automated carry over from the pre-refresh Tundra. Toyota refined the vehicle by enhancing the flight top quality, retuning the suspension for much better stability, as well as lowering roadway sound to boost comfort on-road. Off the sidewalk, the vehicle continues to be comfortable, removing harsh surfaces. Relating to gas economic situation, the EPA prices the rear-drive Toyota Tundra 16/20 mpg city/highway for V-6 models, 15/19 mpg with the 4.6-liter V-8, as well as 13/18 with the 5.7-liter V-8. 4x4 is just offered on the V-8 designs and they are rated at 14/18 mpg for the 4.6-liter while the 5.7-liter accomplishes 13/17 mpg.
While Toyota enhanced the 2014 Tundra's inside, it drags rivals as a result of unequal use soft and also difficult plastics. Wind sound remains a problem in spite of efforts making the cabin extra exceptional than previously. Boosted seats make the cabin a better place to hang out in while the roomy back seats have sufficient area for full-sized grownups. The enhancement of a new infomercial system and also typical Entune Premium Sound modernizes the 2014 Tundra.
Depending upon the design, the Toyota Tundra has a three- and also four-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA (out of a feasible five stars) while IIHS has offered it a great rating across 4 groups (great is the greatest possible rating) except the tiny overlap front category, where it has actually not been examined.
What We Think
The Tundra's carryover powertrains hold it back when compared with full-size vehicles from GM, Ford, and also Ram, which are furnished with advanced as well as reliable engines as well as transmissions. In a First Examination testimonial of a 2014 Tundra 1794 CrewMax Version, we said that the brand-new model continues to lag behind its rivals in gas economic climate, showing a "Texas-size crave gas." In addition, in our Initial Drive evaluation, we kept in mind the deceitful nature of the inside, which "looked like a strong hunk of light weight aluminum removed an Audi and also really feeling 3-cent plastic."
