(partially) new Tundra coming?

[Todd780]

Hmm.... Unless what we are seeing isn't the new Tundra. Could it be the new 4Runner? Could be an evolution of the current design?

2022 Toyota Tundra: What We Know About the Next One (motortrend.com)

The Yota fan boys have been saying "direct injection and twin turbos aren't reliable" for over a decade. Wonder if they'll change their tune since Toyota is now doing it?

Is find it kind of odd that the payload and tow ratings are so low. Wonder why they didn't try to compete with the domestics?

Toyota’s no stranger to forced induction, so I’m sure they’ll get it right. I’m more intrigued by the hybrid option.

But yes, lots of disappointed fanboys.

Yes, I'd be interested in a hybrid as well. I hope that rendering is wrong.

It’s hideous.

The side and back look really sharp...but whom ever designed the front was clearly on a different sheet of music. It looks like an oversized Corolla...lol.

Newsflash! Its a rendering by someone who owns photoshop. I.E., it's not real.

Well...based on their current line up...it might not be far off....haha.

The whole article is click bait and speculation. Where in the article does it say anything about what the new payload and tow ratings are?

Also yes it's going to be reliable, Lexus engines are extremely reliable. An tuned for truck duties with low end torque it should be even more reliable than that motor in the LS500

Maybe not. Maybe so. We should know more come the Super Bowl.

Wonder if the hybrid version will be modeled after the LS as well.

Well that rendering is pretty fugly and knowing how the truck grill wars are going, it wouldn't surprise me if that what the outcome is of the restyle.

I couldn't agree more. Why the powers that be think we all want an 8 foot wall for a truck grill is beyond me. And to make the rest work you wind up with a 6' bed rail height that no one can lean over in to actually use the truck bed. Then we have to have all of these steps and ladders and crap. All this is before the obligatory 6" lift.

Look at the hideous domestic grills, especially the 3/4 tons. Toyota will do whatever the big 3 do because they think that's what all 'Muricans want. And we have all seen the rolling blasphemy they've done to Lexus designs.

Sure is. Wide mouthed bass. Reliability is king,but Toyota's full size styling could take some cues from the domestics especially Ram.
