The all-new 2022 Toyota Tundra has a good work ethic, but does it do anything to stand out among other half-ton full-size pickups?
The Tundra Platinum was powered by the new twin-turbo V-6, which replaces the outgoing Tundra's V-8. It pulled our test truck to 60 in 6.1 seconds, and the piped-in V-8 sound was less annoying than we expected. What did annoy us was the way the engine shook the whole truck at idle."Little or no excuse for the idle vibration," technical director Frank Markus said.
However, the rest of the cab drew criticism for its randomly placed switchgear, and the Platinum model was deemed insufficiently luxurious, though the TRD Pro, with its embroidered seats and contrast-color stitching, was a bigger hit. We were surprised that the big 14.0-inch center screen only shows one function at a time; it's as if Toyota simply scaled up small-screen graphics rather than designing an interface to fit the space.
Towing was another disappointment. The Platinum didn't feel as stable as some of the other trucks, and despite having a rear air suspension, it rode as if the rear axle sat on the bump stops. The TRD Pro was no better, with judges noting it felt"overwhelmed" by the trailer."It seems clear Toyota has never done a coil-sprung rear axle with a heavy trailer before," Evans said."Ram got this right straight out of the box 12 years ago.
