With a powerful engine under the hood, technology in the cabin, and safety features all around, it isn’t hard to see why the 2019 Toyota Tundra can compete with American trucks.
- Power
The 2019 Tundra is offered with two engines, depending on which model you choose. The standard 4.6-liter V-8 engine cranks out 310 horsepower, while the 5.7-liter V-8 pumps out 381 horsepower. The Tundra’s power is comparable to many American trucks. Both engines are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.
- Performance
Like American trucks, the Tundra was built to perform both on and off the pavement. Traversing challenging terrain is no problem for the Tundra thanks to a taut suspension, Fox shocks, dual exhaust, and 18-inch forged aluminum wheels. Rear-wheel drive is standard equipment and four-wheel drive is available.
- Cargo Space
The Tundra has a selection of bed sizes similar to those offered in American trucks. The Tundra CrewMax has a 5-foot-6-inch bed, while the Double Cab comes with a 6-foot-6-inch bed or 8-foot-1-inch bed.
- Technology
Even at its base level, the Tundra comes with a number of technology features, such as Entune infotainment system with a touch-screen display and advanced voice commands.
- Safety
The 2019 Tundra comes standard a pre-collision system, forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, brake assist, sway warning, and automatic high-beam headlights. Optional safety features include blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, and front and rear parking sensors.
When it’s time to shop for a truck, don’t overlook the Toyota Tundra. You’ll find it rivals American trucks in more ways than one.
