2013 Toyota Tundra

The Toyota Tundra offers changes for 2013 that enhance value and comfort in the hard-working, hard-playing full-size pickup truck.

The Platinum Package, which was available for the Tundra CrewMax Limited last year, now becomes a full model grade. The Platinum Grade offers numerous luxury features, such as heated and ventilated front bucket seats with embroidered headrests and driver' seat two-position memory feature, perforated leather-trimmed seating surfaces, DVD navigation system, power tilt/slide moonroof with sliding sunshade, and wood-grain-style interior trim.

The 2013 Tundra is offered in three grades (Tundra, Limited and Platinum); three cab styles (Regular, Double Cab and Crew Max); three wheelbase lengths (126.8, 145.7 and 164.6 inches, depending on model and configuration) and three bed lengths (78.7, 97.6 and for CrewMax only, 66.7-inches).

The hard-working Tundra offers three engine choices, a 270-horsepower 4.0-liter V6; a 310-horsepower 4.6-liter V8; and the 5.7-liter V8 with 381 horsepower.

Tundra 4x4 models use a part-time, electronically controlled four-wheel drive system to provide 4x2, 4x4 Hi and 4x4 Lo ranges. The driver selects the mode using a dial on the dash. The standard Automatic-Limited-Slip Differential (Auto LSD) helps provide better acceleration in deep sand or mud and on mixed-friction surfaces.

An available Tow Package on all Tundra V8 models helps increase towing capacity up to 10,400 pounds. A one-piece towing receiver is integrated into the frame prior to bed installation.
