Advancements in the truck world are at an all-time high, so it takes a lot to attract attention. But Toyota has done just that with its 2022 Tundra, a light-duty full-size pickup with several key updates. The new Tundra ditches its humble leaf-spring rear suspension for coil springs, adds a rust-proof composite bed and adopts a new frame design. Those changes aim to improve comfort while adding strength and rigidity.
The Tundra also takes a giant leap forward with its engine choices. There’s a standard turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 or an optional electric hybrid version of that same engine with even more power. There are basic work truck versions, luxurious tech-laden versions and rugged off-road versions. Regardless, the Tundra will give truck shoppers a revitalized alternative to Chevrolet, Ford and Ram.
