Как Land Cruiser 300, но пикап: показана долгожданная Toyota Tundra

Одна из моделей-долгожителей Toyota, пикап Tundra, сменила поколение. Предыдущая генерация Tundra продержалась на конвейере 14 лет и наконец уступила место новому автомобилю, за разработку которого отвечали инженерные центры в Мичигане, Аризоне и Калифорнии. Tundra третьего поколения перебралась на новую рамную платформу GA-F, ту же, что и у Toyota Land Cruiser 300. С ним же пикап разделил и силовые агрегаты — 5,7-литровую «восьмерку» отправили в отставку, а ей на смену пришел битурбированный V6 объемом 3,4 литра. Не обошлось и без гибридных технологий: для Tundra подготовили установку i-Force Max с электромотором, встроенным между ДВС и автоматом.

Изменения в дизайне носят эволюционный характер. За облик модели отвечала калифорнийская дизайн-студия Calty, а стиль, в котором выдержан пикап, получил название Technical muscle: характерными чертами новинки стали множественные выштамповки по бокам, боковые стекла с необычной подоконной линией, массивная решетка радиатора с иным узором, Т-образная светодиодная передняя оптика и модернизированные задние фонари.

Toyota Tundra нового поколения

Дореформенная Toyota Tundra

На смену рессорам в задней подвеске Tundra пришли пружины, на передней оси появилась новая подвеска на двойных поперечных рычагах. В Toyota обещают, что пикап стал комфортнее и лучше управляется, а крены кузова сократились примерно на четверть.

Toyota Tundra предложат с двумя вариантами четырехместных кабин, стандартной Double Cab и увеличенной CrewMax. В первом случае пикап доступен с грузовой платформой длиной 2,0 либо 2,5 метра, а во втором — 1,7 или 2,0 метра. Грузовой отсек теперь выполнен из композитных материалов с алюминиевыми вставками, максимальная грузоподъемность выросла на 11 процентов, до 880 килограммов, а масса буксируемого прицепа увеличилась на 17,6 процента, до 5,4 тонны.

Tundra начального уровня полагается 8-дюймовый экран мультимедийной системы, а пикап в топовых комплектациях оснащается планшетом диагональю 14 дюймов и 12,3-дюймовой виртуальной панелью приборов. В Toyota заверяют, что «мультимедийка» полностью новая, работает в пять раз быстрее предыдущей версии, поддерживает голосовое управление и обновляется «по воздуху».

Список доступного оборудования расширился за счет новых систем безопасности. Уже в базовой версии для Tundra доступны электронные ассистенты Toyota Safety Sense 2.5, а именно адаптивный круиз-контроль, система экстренного торможения с функцией распознавания пешеходов и велосипедистов, система удержания в полосе, мониторинг слепых зон и помощник при выезде с парковки задним ходом.

2024 Toyota Tundra

Redesigned for 2022, the full-size 2024 Toyota Tundra pickup continues on the same course it charted when it debuted in 2000: take on the long-time segment leaders with a slightly different and sometimes quirky take on the set-in-stone half-ton pickup formula. For instance, the current 2024 Tundra can’t be configured with a V-8 engine, an act that would border on treason with certain traditional truck-buyer demographics. In its place is a twin-turbocharged V-6 in two states of tune and a third V-6 hybrid variant(reviewed separately). Also of note is its lack of a full-time four-wheel drive option. It hews closer to the traditional truck blueprint in other metrics, however, offering extended- or crew-cab body styles and 5.5-, 6.5-, or 8.1-ft beds. The cab and bed combinations are spread over seven trims ranging from the base SR to the top-tier Capstone. The Tundra also features coil spring rear suspension, a feature it currently shares only with the Ram 1500, which typically delivers a smoother ride but can sap payload capability. Its maximum towing capacity is 12,000 pounds—more than enough for most typical users—though it falls behind the tow ratings of the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, the Ford F-150 or the Ram 1500.

Toyota Tundra

What’s New for 2024?

Tundra sees a few cosmetic and package updates for 2024. The TRD Off-Road package is now available on the Platinum Grade and includes a black grille with color-keyed surround, black mirror caps, window surrounds, over fenders and badging, and body color-and-black door handles. The Nightshade package is now available on the Limited Grade, and the full-size, 12.3-inch digital instrument panel is now standard on Limited. The head-up display, formerly only available bundled with the load-leveling air suspension on Platinum and 1794 Grades, is now a freestanding option. A factory three-inch lift kit is now available on all models except the TRD Pro, which comes with its own suspension setup.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

Though the entry-level 2024 SR Tundra comes with the 348-hp twin-turbo V-6 and is available as an extended or crew cab (double cab and Crew Max, respectively, in ‘Yota vernacular), it’s limited to manually adjusted seats, rolls on steel wheels, requires an upcharge for a basic trailer class IV hitch, and doesn’t allow for more advanced driver aids beyond the standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 driver-assist system. Moving to the SR5 rights all these wrongs with the aforementioned items as either standard or as available content. Horsepower goes up to 389 on this model, and torque jumps to 479 pound-feet. Adding the TRD off-road package brings a lifted suspension with Bilstein dampers, and a host of additional touches designed to take the brunt of occasional off-road use.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The 2024 Tundra offers three levels of power, all based on a turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6. In the base SR model, the engine is tuned for 348 horsepower and 405 pound-feet of torque; otherwise, it makes 389 horses and 479 pound-feet. (The third is the 473-horsepower hybrid, which we review separately.) All use a 10-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with the 389-hp, twin-turbo V6, our Limited test truck delivered a 6.1-second zero-to-60-mph time. Like the Ram 1500, the Tundra utilizes coil-spring rear suspension that provides a smoother ride in day-to-day operation. The TRD Off-Road model features all-terrain tires mounted on a special set of black 18-inch wheels, a lifted suspension with Bilstein dampers, a rear locker, skid plates, mudguards, aluminum pedals, a leather-wrapped shift knob and, somewhat curiously, a heated leather steering wheel. Those seeking maximum off-road capabilities will want the TRD Pro (note: the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro are two separate packages) with a 1.1-inch front lift, 2.5-inch FOX Internal Bypass coil-overs and rear remote-reservoir shocks and a TRD PRO front stabilizer bar. The TRD Sport package goes in the other direction, offering a half-inch lowered suspension and 20-inch wheels in search of a sportier appearance and sharper on-road behavior.

More on the Tundra Pickup

Towing and Payload Capacity

With a 12,000-pound maximum tow rating the 2024 Tundra can’t be considered a lightweight in the towing and payload arena, yet it’s the least capable in the half-ton class. The Ford F-150 leads with a 14,000-pound rating, followed by the Chevrolet Silverado’s 13,300 and the Ram 1500’s 12,750. The Max payload is 1940 pounds, leaving over 1300 pounds on the table compared to Ford’s 3250-pound payload rating.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

In standard, non-hybrid form, the two-wheel drive 2024 Tundra is EPA-rated for up to 20 mpg city and 24 mpg highway; four-wheel drive reduces those figures by 1 mpg each. However, the Tundra delivered only 19 mpg in our 75-mph highway route, which is part of our extensive testing regimen. Furthermore, that same truck averaged just 14 mpg overall while in our hands.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

Though the current Tundra is much better in terms of material quality and design than the previous generation, it fails to bring anything new or revolutionary to the truck segment. There’s a thickset dashboard dotted with prominent air vents and a thick, smooth center section that connects the door panels. Moving up the trim hierarchy brings the usual material and feature upgrades culminating with the top-of-the-line Capstone’s semi-aniline leather upholstery, American Walnut interior trim, acoustically laminated side windows, and heads-up display. Analog gauges and a small driver-information display are standard, but the top trim levels have a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel gauge cluster. The center console is voluminous, and there are plenty of cubbies to collect the detritus of modern life. The extended cab (a.k.a. Double Cab) is available with either a 6.5- or 8.1-foot bed while the crew cab (a.k.a. CrewMax) is offered with either a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed. Opting for the shorter cab won’t affect front-row comfort but reduces the rear seat legroom from 41.6 inches in the crew cab to just 33.3 in the extended cab.

The Car and Driver Difference

Infotainment and Connectivity

The SR and SR5 grade Tundras get the standard 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen, but a 14-inch screen is available on the SR and is standard on the rest of the lineup. Featuring clear graphics, it dominates the center of the dash and features a useful volume knob but lacks a tuning knob, and the controls on the steering wheel have limited functionality. Audio systems include a base six- (extended cab) or nine-speaker (crew cab) setup, but a 12 Speaker JBL Premium Audio system is standard on the Limited and up; wireless charging is standard on the Platinum and higher. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard and a subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot is also offered.

How to Buy and Maintain a Car

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

All Tundras are stocked with the Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 suite of driver-assistance technology that includes automatic high beams, lane departure alert with steering assist, and more. Blind spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic Alert and trailer detection are standard on Limiteds and up. For more information about the Tundra’s crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:

• Standard forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking
• Standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist
• Standard adaptive cruise control

Warranty and Maintenance Coverage

Toyota’s limited and powertrain warranties align with what’s offered on every other full-size pickup truck. However, Toyota’s complimentary scheduled maintenance is unmatched.

• Limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles
• Powertrain warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles
• Complimentary maintenance is covered for two years or 25,000 miles
