Choosing a 2014 Toyota Tundra has never been easier

September 24, 2013 | By Anthony Capkun



September 23, 2013 – The 2014 Toyota Tundra is now on sale across Canada, with suggested starting prices at $26,750 and with lower starting MSRP on Double Cab and CrewMax models (as compared to the 2013 Tundra lineup). “Within the Tundra line-up, Canadians will find a choice of engine sizes, drive trains, cab sizes, bed sizes and more,” said Larry Hutchinson, vice-president, Toyota Canada Inc.

The 2014 Tundra is offered in a choice of two engine sizes. The 5.7L i-Force V8 engine generates up to 381 hp and up to 401 lb-ft of torque, with towing capability up to 10,500 lb. The second is the 4.6L i-Force V8, which offers 310 hp and 327 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are mated to a 6-speed Super ECT transmission with overdrive, Sequential-Shift mode and Tow/Haul capability.

You can choose from a 4×2 drivetrain or the capability of a 4×4 drivetrain featuring One-Touch 4WD and Active Traction Control (A-TRAC). New interior designs are more ergonomic, says Toyota, with easier access to controls for the driver, additional seat travel and a new instrument panel with gauges grouped into easy-to-see clusters. Consoles feature multiple storage areas plus locking glove boxes.

The new Tundra features active and passive safety systems; it is the first in its segment, says Toyota, to be equipped with a back-up camera as standard on all models, and the only full-size pickup offered with an available Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert system.

The latter can be ordered as the 1794 Edition, with an MSRP of $54,000.
