2026 Toyota Tundra CrewMax

Price Range: $43,260 - $80,800

2026 Toyota Tundra Capstone Crew Cab Pickup Exterior

The 2026 Toyota Tundra is built for a range of shoppers, whether they're looking for a solid work truck or an off-road-capable rig that can get them away from it all. It's user-friendly, comfortable and durable, but with its turbocharged V6 base engine, it's not a powerful as some rivals. That engine also failed to match its EPA estimates in Edmunds' real-world testing.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Mark Takahashi

6/10/2025

The Toyota Tundra made its name as a capable, comfortable full-size truck long ago, but the current model — introduced in 2022 — is the most livable yet. The Tundra is powered by a twin-turbo V6 engine that offers better fuel efficiency than its V8-powered rivals. You can also opt for a hybrid version that fits an electric motor between the engine and transmission. As with most full-size trucks, there are a plethora of cab and bed configurations, numerous trim levels, and the choice of rear- or four-wheel drive. The Tundra can be dressed down to haul parts, kitted out to go overlanding, or dressed up with luxury appointments.

Edmunds spotlight: Hybrid power

Hybrids aren't anything new to Toyota, so it should be no surprise that even its full-size pickup has an electrified powertrain on the options list. Known as the i-Force Max, the twin-turbo V6 engine is mated to an electric motor to produce a combined output of 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque. The engine reaches its maximum torque at just 2,400 rpm, making it ideal for towing, and its power delivery is impressively smooth.

Competitors to consider

The Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500 and Ram 1500 can all stand with the Tundra bumper to bumper. Each truck can be equipped with rugged off-road packages and tons of luxury features or be built for thankless heavy lifting day after day. There's also a vast array of bed and cab options and powertrains, from four-cylinder engines to big V8s. In this class, there's something for every buyer.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Kurt Niebuhr

Good

7.9

out of 10

We drove the Toyota Tundra on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

8/10

How does the Tundra drive? The turbocharged 3.4-liter V6 has a substantial amount of torque on tap, even at low rpm, and the 10-speed automatic transmission shifts quickly and smoothly. In our testing, a 4WD Tundra accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds, which is respectably quick. That power makes it easy to merge with traffic and pass on the open highway without a second thought.

Braking is similarly solid. Our panic-braking test from 60 mph saw the Tundra stop in 131 feet — that's a bit better than average — and that was with the TRD Off-Road package's more rugged tires that our test truck had. The light and accurate steering makes it easy to guide the truck down tight backcountry roads.

That TRD Off-Road package that our test truck had includes a locking rear differential and additional off-road driving modes, but it didn't seem to appreciably improve the truck's off-roading capability. This is a big truck, and its long wheelbase means the underbody can easily hang up on seemingly easy obstacles. If you're going to hit up any trails in the Tundra, you'll probably want to get the TRD Pro.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the Tundra? This Tundra is a marked improvement over the previous generation. Seat comfort and interior noise levels are vastly improved, and the Tundra is a pleasant truck for covering long distances for both front and rear passengers. Though the V6 engine is less sonorous than the previously available V8, under full throttle the V6 sounds appropriately burly for a full-size truck.

The Ram 1500 still rules the class in outright ride quality, but the Tundra offers a fairly buttoned-down and jitter-free ride over most surfaces. The Tundra's straightforward climate control system is largely set it and forget it, but we appreciate the large buttons and dials even if some of the labeling can be tough to decipher in bright sunlight.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? While the optional 14-inch touchscreen certainly gets your attention, the Tundra's straightforward interior layout and overall ease of use leave a more lasting impression. Gauges and graphics are easy to read at a glance, and the commanding driving position makes piloting the full-size Tundra much less daunting. Like all full-size trucks, the Tundra offers ample room for all passengers, especially in the CrewMax configuration.

When equipped with the optional panoramic sunroof and unique full-width power rear window, the Tundra feels downright airy and spacious. Even with the Tundra's sizable hood, forward visibility is generally good. But the truck's chunky windshield pillars can easily block your view on two-lane roads. We recommend getting the Tundra's surround-view camera system since it makes maneuvering the truck in tight spots a lot easier.

Build & Price

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The Tundra's available 14-inch touchscreen is a standout feature. It has crisp-looking graphics, and its various onscreen menus are easy to use. In fact, we'd wager some smartphone users might even prefer the native setup to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto (which come standard) for most features. Our test truck had the upgraded JBL audio system, but we found the sound quality from the standard system more than adequate.

The Tundra's advanced driver aids, most of which come standard, generally work well. We didn't experience any false alarms in our testing. The only letdown was the lane keeping system, which wasn't particularly useful in keeping this big truck centered between lane markers.

Towing and Storage

8/10

How are the towing and storage? The latest Tundra has stout capabilities. Our test truck, with its standard V6 engine and 4WD CrewMax configuration, was rated to tow 11,120 pounds when properly equipped. The Tundra's maximum towing and hauling capacities aren't class-leading, but they're certainly good enough for what most owners will be doing with their trucks. A reinforced composite bed is standard.

The extra space of the CrewMax four-door allows for plenty of storage options in the rear interior for items you'd rather not place in the bed. Rear underseat storage is generous as is small-item storage for front passengers. But the interior storage isn't as well organized in the Tundra as in its domestic counterparts, and we could see the Tundra's various bins becoming a bit messy in a hurry.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

6.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? Fuel economy isn't usually top of mind for most buyers of full-size trucks, but those interested in the Tundra might want to lower their expectations. The EPA estimates 19 mpg combined for the 4WD Tundra, which is comparable to competitors. However, our test truck clocked a disappointing 15.2 mpg on our real-world evaluation route. And the Tundra managed to achieve only 16.9 mpg during a weekend fishing trip of mostly open-highway driving. That's worse than what we've observed from our testing of other full-size trucks.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Tundra a good value? The interior is built to a very high standard. Gaps are tight, and all the various trim elements lined up precisely. Though our Limited trim test Tundra lacked luxury touches such as wood and chrome you find in other midlevel full-size trucks, the Toyota did not feel the least bit downmarket or utilitarian.

Warranties are about average for the class, with three years/36,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and five years/60,000 miles for the powertrain. But the Tundra's two years/25,000 miles of free maintenance is a slight step above.

Wildcard

7.5/10

The Tundra can't claim to be best-in-class when it comes to towing, hauling or ride comfort, but there's nothing wrong with having competence and comfort as primary strengths. This truck is easy to drive and easy to live with, and its available 14-inch touchscreen and full-width power rear window help give it a distinctive driving experience.

2026 Toyota Tundra trim level differences

[Editor's note: The following unofficial information is based on last year's Tundra. We expect the 20265 model will have a similar lineup and we'll update this section once we have complete information.] The Toyota Tundra is a four-door pickup truck available in extended-cab (Double Cab) and crew-cab (CrewMax) configurations, with one short bed and one long bed option for each. You can choose from seven trim levels: SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794, TRD Pro and Capstone.

Which Tundra trim does Edmunds recommend?

Toyota hasn't released official information on the 2026 Tundra as of this writing. We'll update our recommendation if anything changes, but based on last year's Tundra, the midrange Limited trim is a great pick for most shoppers. It dresses up the big truck with heated and ventilated power-adjustable seats and a giant 14-inch touchscreen. It's also the most affordable trim that's eligible for the more powerful and efficient hybrid powertrain.
