Better Toyota Tundra Next Year

Toyota seems not to be looking for easy ways and keep producing its low-efficient heavy pickup truck with the most compact vessel for fuel.

Changes are to be expected from the next year’s model when Tundra obtains fuel tank increase along with a system utilizing trailer brake. Such pleasant news was delivered by engineering boss of the line-up.

Information presented by the company indicates essentially a critically opposite position. 2015 Tundra will enjoy not merely a large tank but the largest one at the segment market. New 38-gallon record is to be set, which will make the current largest 36-gallon Ford F-150 offering history. Such volume will fit economy figures of Tundra that total 15 mpg in a combined cycle.

Rear brake controller will be a pleasant bonus allowing to deploy trailer brakes separately. This will also be new to the Toyota line-up. The decision was probably dictated by the fact that the most popular pickup truck automakers have adopted this device whereas Japanese brand’s customers still have to buy it separately.

If a vehicle does not have an integrated braking system installed, stopping is performed by front body wheels. The unit bought separately is a solution to the problem, but Toyota tries to make the offering more appealing on Tundra packing it inside the ca and marking it with its brand-specific badge.
