Hotter TRD Pro version also available

Toyota has taken the time to provide more info on the 2019 Tundra, which sees the return of the TRD Pro pack.

For 2019, the Toyota Tundra can be had with V8 power represented by two engines – the entry-level variant is a 4.6-liter i-Force unit making 310 hp @ 5,600 rpm and 327 lb-ft of twist @ 3,400 rpm.

The range-topper comes as a 5.7-liter unit pushing 381 hp @ 5,600 rpm and 401 lb-ft of torque @ 3,600 rpm.

Toyota says both engines rely on an aluminum block and double-overhead cam heads with four valves per cylinder, plus VVT-i. Moreover, they’re both connected to a six-speed automatic transmission. 

Toyota also mentions that the 2019 Tundra has a maximum towing capacity of 10,200 lb, but you’ll need the optional Tow Package for that.

The 2019 Toyota Tundra can be had in two configurations – four-door Double Cab and four-door CrewMax, with six trim levels that define the range – SR, SR5, Limited, TRD Pro, Platinum, and 1794 Edition.

Speaking of the TRD Pro variant, you should know it is now offered for the 2019 Tundra and adds the likes of Fox 2.5-inch front shocks and TRD-sourced springs for two extra inches of lift and 1.5-inch wheel travel.

The LED fog lights are provided by Rigid Industries but changes also include a new grille, hood scoop, and 18-inch BBS forged aluminum wheels said to cut down weight by 13.4 lb overall. The wheels are shod in Michelin P275/65R18 all-terrain tires.

Tech-wise, the 2019 Tundra gets Toyota’s Entune multimedia system in two versions. SR, for example, offers a 6.1-inch touchscreen display, while SR5 and TRD Pro use a 7-inch screen.

In addition, every 2019 Toyota Tundra packs the brand’s Safety Sense-P suite as standard, a list of safety features that includes the likes of Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection function, Lane Departure Alert, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Automatic High Beam.
