2020 Toyota Tundra

The 2020 Toyota Tundra is the oldest pickup truck this class, but it has the most standard safety technology and solid off-road cred. Despite its aging design and powertrain, the Tundra offers a potent and proven V-8 engine and a stylized TRD Pro model. The latter enhances the 2020 Tundra’s ruggedness with a lifted suspension and other exclusive trail-ready equipment. Lesser TRD models are also built to take the path less traveled, which is where the Tundra works best. Otherwise its lowly fuel economy and unrefined road manners make it our least favorite full-size truck to drive on a daily basis. Still, the Tundra’s available crew cab has a huge back seat and loads of useful storage space. Although it’s not one of the best new pickup trucks, the 2020 Tundra will satisfy outdoorsmen and those who glorify the Toyota badge.

What’s New for 2020?

The big news is that the 2020 Tundra lineup no longer includes the previously standard 4.6-liter V-8. Instead, every model is now fitted with the 5.7-liter V-8—the flex-fuel version also has been dropped. The Tundra SR5 adds new options such as push-button start with passive entry, leather surfaces, and front bucket seats with a power-operated driver’s seat. Toyota finally makes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability available on most models.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

The Toyota Tundra’s base price makes it one of the cheapest full-size trucks you can buy with an extended cab and a V-8 engine. We think the SR5 model is the best value. The crew cab option adds $1695, but it’s only available with a 5.5-foot bed. We’d stick with the standard 6.5-foot bed and add four-wheel drive for a good mix of utility and capability. The TRD Off-Road package brings a host of superficial and mechanical upgrades. Highlights include a bigger touchscreen with navigation, mobile hotspot, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. It also adds a larger fuel tank for extended driving range, skid plates to protect the underbody, off-road shock absorbers, and 18-inch wheels with chunkier tires.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

Compared with newer and more advanced powertrains, the Tundra’s engine and transmission are prehistoric. The standard 5.7-liter V-8 is good for 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is optional for both setups, but not for all cab-and-bed configurations. The Tundra’s engine is reasonably peppy but emits an unsatisfyingly weak exhaust note, and its six-speed automatic shifts rather slowly. While it isn’t terrible to drive, the last Tundra we tested felt archaic and a bit off the pace compared with lighter and more powerful competitors. Due to the Tundra’s firm suspension, every bump is transmitted into the cabin, which makes for a lumpy ride when driving over rough surfaces. The upgraded shocks on the TRD Pro and models with the TRD Off-Road package marginally improve the ride quality, as well as help to better manage body motions in corners. The Tundra’s light, numb steering isolates the driver from the road and requires constant corrections at highway speeds. The Tundra’s brakes are adequate and can haul the truck down from 70 mph in a so-so 190 feet, but the brake pedal returns little feedback and has inconsistent travel.

Towing and Payload Capacity

The Tundra’s maximum tow rating of 10,200 pounds will be more than most people need, and even its least capable configuration can tug at least 8800 pounds.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

The Tundra has the worst fuel economy in its class. While its competitors don’t exactly sip fuel either, the EPA rates its V-8 with four-wheel drive at 13 mpg city and 17 mpg highway. The last one we tested matched its highway rating on our 200-mile fuel-economy test, but that figure is still lower than all the other pickups we’ve tested.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

The Tundra’s interior is spacious and dotted with oversized features, but it’s an outdated presentation and the materials in most models feel cheap and rubbery. Although its rear-seat legroom is among the best for crew cabs, the quality and layout of the Tundra’s cabin are unimpressive, as well as short on amenities found in the fresher competition. The only salvation is the 1794 Edition, which has luscious saddle-brown leather-trimmed seating and ultrasuede accents. The Tundra’s front roof pillars are wide at the base and create a sizable blind spot, but the large rear windows of the crew cab do offer adequate visibility. An abundance of cargo and storage space is expected with a pickup. While the Toyota is merely adequate in most areas, our testing revealed that the cavernous crew cab is able to hold 21 carry-on suitcases with its rear seat folded, two more than any other pickup. Deep but narrow door pockets prevent storing larger items, but the extended cab—called Double Cab—does have a storage compartment under the rear seat that’s not available in other cabs. The Tundra has three cargo-bed lengths. The shortest is 5.5 feet and is only available with the crew cab. The extended cab can pair with a 6.5- or an 8.1-foot bed.

The Car and Driver Difference

Infotainment and Connectivity

The Tundra’s infotainment system is tolerable, functioning adequately and responsively but never intuitively. Fancier trim levels have an advanced package that adds more speakers for the audio system as well as integrated navigation. The Entune system will not delight users with its tiny onscreen buttons, but our testing showed that its response time is faster than popular smartphones. Thankfully, the newly available Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make the system more intuitive and modern.

How to Buy and Maintain a Car

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

Overall Safety Rating (NHTSA)

The Tundra has merely average crash-test ratings from both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. However, every model has a smorgasbord of standard driver-assistance technology. Key safety features include:

• Standard automatic emergency braking
• Standard adaptive cruise control
• Standard lane-departure warning

Warranty and Maintenance Coverage

The Tundra’s primary warranties are consistent with the competition. Toyota’s two years of roadside assistance is the only part of its coverage that stands out.

• Limited warranty covers 3 years or 36,000 miles
• Powertrain warranty covers 5 years or 60,000 miles
• Complimentary scheduled maintenance 2 years or 25,000 miles

2020 Toyota Tundra

Though the Tundra TRD Pro offers the best ride of the lineup, spending less amps up the Tundra’s value. Go for a modestly optioned Tundra SR5.

features & specs

The 2020 Toyota Tundra trades on its durable reputation rather than its appealing design.

The 2020 Toyota Tundra is a hard-working truck that’s light on luxury and high-tech features. Toyota’s full-size pickup has its assets, but its basic design dates back more than a decade and it shows. We rate the 2020 Tundra at 4.8 out of 10. (Read more about how we rate cars.)

This year, the lineup is pared back to just one engine standard on the SR, SR5, Limited, TRD Pro, Platinum, and 1794 Edition trims. At least the V-8 is a good (albeit very thirsty) one: a 381-horsepower 5.7-liter V-8 that delivers Lexus-like smooth acceleration accompanied by a race car-like growl when called into action. The 6-speed automatic transmission works well but doesn’t help fuel economy compared to rivals with more gears. Rear-wheel drive is standard, while a part-time 4WD system is optional.

Properly equipped, the Tundra can tow up to 10,200 pounds or haul up to 1,730 pounds in the bed.

The Tundra rides well and has reasonably responsive steering. Off-road ability is above average on the TRD Pro thanks to a boulder-swallowing suspension with Fox shocks. The Tundra isn’t rated to tow as much as some competitors, but its 10,000-pound-plus capability is good enough for most uses and the V-8 makes a willing hauling partner. An unusually large turning radius is a letdown, however.

The Tundra’s trucky looks outside are paired with a spacious but dated interior with low-buck plastics even on costly versions. The Tundra’s base 7.0-inch infotainment screen can wash out in bright light, we’ve found. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility was added for 2020, but the Tundra’s features are on the sparse side compared to myriad options on domestic automakers’ trucks. The Tundra costs about $35,000 to start, and its prices are reasonable compared to some rivals. The Tundra also has a decent resale value.

Among the truck’s standard features are automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control. Weak crash-test scores from both federal and independent testers reveal this design’s age.

The Tundra remains worth a look for some shoppers, but Detroit’s big trucks remind us that nobody does heavy hauling better than Motown.
