For more than two decades, the Toyota Tundra has built a reputation as a capable full-size pickup for Auburn drivers who want real strength for work and weekends. With strong powertrain options, modern tech and a comfortable cabin, the Tundra fits everything from job-site runs around Lee County to towing a boat toward Lake Martin. At Allen Turner Toyota of Auburn, 170 W Creek Pkwy, we help you compare trims and confirm VIN-specific equipment on the truck you’re shopping.
A 3.4L twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE engine is rated at 389 hp and 479 lb-ft. The available i-FORCE MAX hybrid raises that to 437 hp and 583 lb-ft, and both use a 10-speed automatic.
Properly equipped Tundra models are rated to tow up to 12,000 lbs, and a hitch with a 7-pin/4-pin connector is standard on every trim.
Available 14-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and cabin upgrades like heated and ventilated seats for daily driving and road trips.
Every Tundra includes a Toyota Safety Sense suite of driver-assist tech. The refreshed truck steps up to Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 and a built-in drive recorder, according to Toyota.
Toyota offers the Tundra with two twin-turbocharged 3.4L V6 powertrains. The i-FORCE V6 makes 389 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. Busting the myths around green motoring, the i-FORCE MAX hybrid is the mightiest option, producing 437 hp and 583 lb-ft. Both accelerate quickly, and the 10-speed automatic with Tow/Haul modes helps keep the ride smooth and composed.
Towing capacity varies with trim and configuration, but the Tundra brings serious pulling power for trailers and boats. Properly equipped gas models are rated up to 12,000 lbs, while properly equipped i-FORCE MAX models are rated up to 11,450 lbs. Because ratings depend on equipment, the easiest way to confirm your truck’s capability is the VIN-specific listing.

The Tundra has the rugged looks truck enthusiasts love: a bold grille, sharp lines and a muscular stance. Toyota’s refreshed Tundra adds a squarer front end, a brighter grille-mounted LED light bar and available front recovery hooks. Despite its imposing exterior, the cabin is inviting. Premium materials such as semi-aniline leather and American walnut on select trims, heated and ventilated seating and advanced climate controls make long drives on I-85 to Atlanta or Montgomery more comfortable.
The Tundra’s composite bed resists dents and rust, and you can choose a 5.5-, 6.5- or 8.1-ft bed depending on cab and trim. An 8-inch or available 14-inch touchscreen supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Toyota states the 14-inch screen is standard on the refreshed truck.
Every Tundra includes Toyota Safety Sense, including:
Earlier trucks use Toyota Safety Sense 2.5, while Toyota says the refreshed Tundra adds Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 with Proactive Driving Assist. Visit our Toyota Safety Sense page, then confirm the version on the truck you’re shopping.
