The #Toyota #TundraTRDPro has always been the most capable version of the #ToyotaTundra for years and the latest version combines the #iForceMax #Hybrid powertrain of the latest generation. The result is an interesting truck that happily slots between a Ford F-150 Raptor and Tremor.

This is a 2023 model, not a 2024. The 2 indicators are the old black uca and the beige headliner. The 2024 come with red uca and black headliner.
It's a tester so it's probably a early build 2024
Blah blah blah
I want the 5.7L engine back!
Holy... In the 20 hours plus of reviews that I have watched since recently purchasing my Tundra, I have not once seen a more condensed, comprehensive and accurate evalution of this truck. Many kudos. I've subscribed! You certainly come to the table informed and prepared!
Happy Weds everyone! If you can’t decide between something like an F-150 Raptor and Tremor, the TRD Pro version of the new Tundra may just be the happy medium buyers are looking for. It also happens to be the ONLY hybrid option in the segment of factory built Off-Road trucks and that makes this a very unique offering! Also, incase you’re curious, we’ll be driving the new Tacoma in early November, so stay tuned!
Doesn't the 2024 Tremor have the option to add the hybrid ?
This is not a 2024 Tundra TRD Pro. The 2024 has the black headliner and TRD upper control arms in red.
Who cares about the only hybrid if it gets crap mpg. The zr2 or at4x are way better off road trucks .
For those don’t know. The actual 2024 Pro comes standard with the red TRD upper control arms for the front. This tester probably assemble before.
They are also supposed to have a black headliner.
Blah blah blah
@@atg1338smart ass 😂
@@atg1338Do you have nothing better to do?
@@f82dot I can say whatever i want to son...
Two things 1. need front safety hooks 2. make the rear leg and head room bigger like the old ones.
Yeah they need to put tow hooks, even if it's at the bottom of the vehicle. And also need to use the grand highlander styled design for a pano roof with max headroom since with the pano roof, the grand highlander has more room than the pano roof of the tundra
2 more things.... it's ulgy and it's ulgy AF
It's subjective, some people may think you are ulgy and you're ulgy AF @@atg1338
@@atg1338itll grow into you. Specially if you test drive it a couple of time.
The rear bumper sucks too. Gonna have to cut the rear if you want a custom bumper.
Outstanding review of features and benefits! Thank you! Appreciate your insight and personal observations as well!
Great review as always! FYI the Sequoia does offer a Pano Sunroof in the TRD Pro trim.
I had a huge smile as you did the 0-60! Sooo fun!! Love the roar! 👍🤟🏼🔥🔥
The TRD should be able to handle the curb when I drive over it in the grocery store parking lot. That cage thing and the 1600lbs payload should be enough to handle my grocery bags.
Great review Sofyan!
As usual another great review by Sofiyan
Comes standard with a $15k markup. Yay.
This was a great review. I love when a Reviewer is quick and concise with their observations and Analysis. I have owned four Tundras in my days. I was waiting for a drastic change but I guess I'll have to settle for this. Really not happy with the gas mileage claim and also no hands off driving.
Why would you buy this is if nots hood? Because you bought other tundras?
V8 please. I won’t touch this vehicle.
This is a very good review. Pay attention to the very quick and passing small criticisms throughout the video, they are spot on! I’ve been comparing Tundra against GMC and Dodge and Tundra is simply behind the competition. Have always loved Toyota, but if you’re gonna drop this kind of $, you owe it to yourself to give the competition serious looks and consideration. I did, and I pulled the trigger on a GMC Denali Ultimate, over the T. Capstone. So glad I did, and this coming from a Toyota fanboy all my life.
In which ways?
Not concerned about support and reliability?
@@semosancus5506Always
This is on top for all the full-sized trucks in my book.
If I could find a good deal on a used last gen TRD Pro, I'd probably go for it. I just like the look of the previous gen better.
I totally agree with you 👍🏼
i wanted the TRD Pro so bad but went with the capstone bc i hated the red interior and the reduction in features such as the heated / cooled seating in the rear, the HUD, the automatic step boards etc. I would def get the pro if it wasnt for that tho
Great review! The black headliner in the 2024s is a small, but HUGE improvement. The Tundra overall isnt perfect, but what vehicle is? Rhetorical question. Dont actually respond back to me. 😅
Nothing and nobody is perfect! But we’ll take nearly perfect 😊
Redline Reviews make the best videos ever :)
That I agree
Great video Sofyan! Toyota needs to make some changes to the Tundra - Make roomier rear seat like the old Tundras, change the rear bumper with a bumper similar to the new Tacoma, add tow hooks, some of us use tow hooks, make the interior similar to the new Tacoma, have a top glove box like.
I had a 2022 Tundra TRD Pro for about 6 months. I really did not like it especially the hybrid regen braking system that made a loud humming noise every time I stepped on the brake (Toyota claimed that was "normal"). I disliked that so much it took the fun out of driving the truck. Ended up trading it in for a 2023 F150 Raptor and couldn't be happier. When discussing the MSRP Toyota (as well as all other manufacturers i guess) has really crapped on it's customer base. The video mentions that the 2024 MSRP is around $71K...in 2022 the MSRP of my Pro was $66500. Just shows how crazy truck prices have gotten (and that's not just Toyota)...same exact truck as two years ago but $5-6K more.
Interesting comment about the braking. Savage Geese mentioned a weird humming noise when they tested the Sequoia. I think Toyota blew it with the Tundra. The Big 3 trucks are just much more refined and still offer v-8s. The Capstone is a joke, offering the black and white interior as the only option. I know the fan boys will claim these trucks will go " a million miles" but we don't know what the reliability will be for a few years.
@@weirdshibainuit won’t last a million miles considering that the turbo has had issues and they recently issued a recall where it might catch fire 😂
My 23 Pro doesn't have any humming brake issues. Nor is there any recall for turbos.
@@dyauswinters yup no humming issues on my 23. And I replaced my Gen 2 Raptor which had a transmission replaced and new transmission overheated every time I took it on the highway. I'll take the flaws on the Tundra over the Ecopoop engine anyday. I would say the only major flaw on this Truck is the turning radius! Absolutely horrible!
@@weirdshibainuThe Big 3. Sounds like a Chevy, Ford and Ram fanboy.
Really good video and breakdown of the TRD PRO. I am a Toyota fan but for the price, can Toyota at least act like they can produce a quality interior (hard plastics and the back seat doors was a step down). Not to mention upgrading the bed power supply to match the Ford’s wattage. And lastly get rid of the digital camo pattern. Other than that, I am still torn between the Platinum TRD Package vs. the TRD PRO.
Toyotas interior are blah at but the engines though very reliable….
Were the tires noisy when you drove the truck?
Man, those interior colors just do not work for me. Thanks for creating and sharing this video!
Exactly absolutely hate red. I prefer all black interior, red stitching is the most I do
So I’m assuming a ranchhand bumper would be a no go since the need for air for cooling?
You are the best . You give concise and honest reviews sir❤
Wait. Good quality fit and finish but the door panel rattles?? I’m confused.
The fit finish is not good on the tundra. Not to mention lots of rattles 😂 Yeah it’s Toyota quality alright 😂
It’s very nice! I really love pickup trucks! I love the red seats, they should make a all electric one
KZheadrs keep getting the details wrong on the Sequoia TRD Pro. The Panoramic Roof is an option, in fact, my 2023 Sequoia TRD Pro has one.
I just wonder if Toyota or other EVs could come up with idea to have upgradable battery configuration, I personally would like to put additional battery in the bed of the truck to make more power or efficiency or like an anchor portable charger 🔌 add that and you get additional charge…
Literally never see these top end trims driving around lol.
MSRP for this truck is 74-78K in Austin, Texas. The limited 4X4 off road package new will sell at 70K- unless it has several thousand miles on it and even then dealerships won't mark it down that much.
I owe one and it's not likeable It's fantastic! Not a single regret power style and tech best truck out I hands down. And one more thing you don't actually know the truck the computer is close to 1mpg off on the screen then real life. Do actual math at the pump stock trd pro is about 18ish combined I put 35s and I'm at about 15 tank combined
Best reviewed😊
That’s weird cause I’m my 22 tundra trd pro with full lift and 22’s with. 35’s I get 24.3 when driving on the city and highway I get 22.3 I put gas every 3 .5 weeks daily driver also
I like the new styling of the truck but they definitely need to start upgrading the tires for this trim...
Manufactures always put crap tires on cars at any trim level. They know the customer will upgrade them.
How many miles per gallon on this one?
Great truck just bought one in black TRD PRO 👌👍
How is the paint quality?
Great review, quick and to the point. Toyota lost me with the roll out of the new Tundra. Such a complete disappointmen after a 5 year wait. Bring back the V8 or a diesel in a heavy duty truck. I don’t need or want a hybrid EV.
Does the tailgate lock?
Agree that the Sequoia front grille is a lot better than the Tundra..
That blinking screen though. At night, it would seriously affect your eyes
usually you need to roll the truck for the 4H to engage
I've always loved the look of the tundra - in my city of 500k+ I hardly see any on the road it's all F150's or Sierra/Silverado
Loved the look🤣🤣🤣🤣 that things hideous af

I was able to Buy a 2024 TRD Pro at MSRP!
I don't care about the 0 to 60, but I do love Toyota's mpg, durability and simplicity !!!
What mpg🤣🤣🤣 it's not that great
My 2017 TRD Off Road gets 17.4 mpg for my everyday driving. I'm not hauling/towing, but neither are you in this case, so there really isn't any cost savings, especially when you factor in the massive increase in cost. I paid about a 3rd of that for this thing and it doesn't have all the annoying non-stop beeping "safety" features and tows about 800 lbs less and about 200 lbs less payload. That's still plenty for most applications. After market radio make up for a lot of the tech most people would care about.
Gotta wait 1-2 years after redesign before buying if you plan on keeping it for a while. I'm hoping to do that with the Tacoma for a 2026 model... I don't need a full sized truck really, though I miss having one. Still, I think Tacoma is where it's at generally for most US consumers.
1-2 years is probably what the wait list will be.
@@cactuscanine3531 Not so much where I live. 6-9 would be the high end generally. I waited about 2.5 months for my TRDP 4R and that includes shipping/port time. Tundras were also available pretty early on and pretty quickly after the redesign. Out West seems to be a lot worse.
If this was a turbo diesel I'd trade in my car in a heart beat
Still better than American trucks.
No it’s not. theres no metric that this excels over the domestic rivals
@@naveenthemachine GM makes garbage across the board, Ford has oil burning ecoboost engines and a powersh**t tranny. Ram isn’t bad tho
How so??
Reliability yes… everything else..no.
@@boostedcadillac8496 170k fire recall on toyota tundra. Not reliable.
The second best truck on the market. The first is the one I have. Same truck but with the black interior! 😂
Just sold my 6.2 Denali and picked up the 1794 edition. Lovin it. The hybrid engine is much faster. Only thing the Denali had better was the truck bed, but thats it. GM quality sucks today
Try setting the mpg per trip and not all average. Per trip resets every time the engine turns off. The all average takes about 70 miles to get an average and you may never get to that point if you're not driving hours at a time..
I thought the 2024 pros come with the TRD billet upper control arms?
And a black headliner. This has to be a 2023 year model
Oh man good call out, I forgot about that! Definitely has to be a 2023@@sean47w7
@@sean47w7it’s a tester vehicle made in early 2024.
If you have the 2024 model, why is your head liner not black?
It’s an early build review/sample vehicle for dealers and reviewers. That being said those changes were not yet made when this was built. But yes red control arms and black headliner
the 2024 model (TRD Pro) now comes with a black headliner rather than the lighter one
Dealbreaker. I wanted the lighter one.
Blah blah blah
I don’t like the way toyota is complicating the powertrains nowadays. Reliability will take a huge hit im sure
Don’t think they wanted to as this setup is likely way more costly to manufacturer and develop than the 5.7L; emissions standards being more strict made them have to downsize and in order to stay competitive on power…toss on the the turbo and the hybrid setup and voila
It already did. The turbo wastegate issues not to mention the tundra was recalled for starting on fire😂. That’s supposed to be a Hyundai Kia thing
@@naveenthemachine the wastegate was a supplier issue existing for a short time period of months in that first year By the way there’s another Hyundai / Kia fire recall that’s shown up today for 3.4m vehicles urging them to park outside. Thoughts?
@@chibbyylolthe tundra also has a fire recall You’re all acting as if Hyundai Kia recalls are so bad but when Toyota issues a similar recall then suddenly it’s okay just because it’s a Toyota with the typical mythical reliability?
@@naveenthemachine severity is important; urged to not even park inside? What is that even? Even better is the fix is they install a smaller fuse do they if it leaks the fuse will hopefully blew before the thermal event; they’re still acknowledging the brake fluid will still leak lol Not to mention if they’re outside now, they’re more susceptible to the ‘Kia boyz’ theft
Sofyan, A lot of us are waiting to see if Toyota offers a Hybrid system for their pickups and 4X4s tuned for extra efficiency 26:55 rather than extra power. 😉
2024 Toyota Tundra CrewMax Hybrid TRD PRO 4X4!
Can you finally pls add chapters to your videos..
I got my 2024 TRD PRO today. Torque
What was the outdoor price? Did the markup the MSRP?
Must have a full Time 4x4 drive system
Great video, but why do we need a 0-60 time for a truck? A lot of automotive journalists do this. Pulling a trailer would yield better content for truck buyers.
He's said it plenty of times, he's just doing it for demonstration purposes hell he said it in the video!!! He knows truck buyers don't buy them for 0-60 times as well as other cars. If you're subscribed then you would know from his previous 500+ videos where he's mentioned it. Some journalists do trailer test in Colorado over a mile above sea level check out The Fast Lane they do em. Everybody don't have those resources lol
Because most of us rarely pull trailers. If you are doing that regularly you get a 3/4 ton or better. For most of us, we tow maybe once or twice a year, the rest of the time it's family, kids stuff, and a luxury car. And yeah, we want the truck to go fast. It's how we have fun.
The TRD Pro has to be the worst choice to purchase. You lose so many features for a suspension and pay such a premium for it. It doesn't make sense to me. I'd get the Platinum over the TRD any day.
What do you mean by flawed?
Ram in my oponion is equal to this truck, the 5.7 > V6
Are you on shrooms bro 😅
@@gerry9306 yes 🤣
Not in terms of TQ & HP!
IMO the platinum is the king of the trim levels that’s just me thought
Great looking except for that lip on the back and low positioned tail lights.
The Silverado ZR2 has over then an 1” more in ground clearance
Not to mention the zr2 has a 6.2 liter naturally aspirated 8..so tired of these manufacturers and their twin turbo v6 or turbo 4's with ev..
I wonder if there is a subscribe limit. Just noticed I wasnt subscibed.. maybe i wasnt before? anyways, resubbed!
Although I have no interest in this truck, I decided to call around some of my local Toyota dealers and each one said they would be at least a 10K market adjustment when they get one in. 😂
No, you didn't call anyone. You made that up in its entirety. Very odd thing to do.
False, I just bought one today. No markup and got 7k off MSRP. Congratulations, you played yourself
I bought the Terra color one today in PA. Msrp was 2k+ cheaper then some other places with 0 markup.
Still no recovery hooks. That’s crazy.
15:10 Ford has 4 Auto and I use it all the time. Great solution.
Toyota is an American truck....It's made in America
Made by non-union slaves in San Antonio. And all the money goes into the pockets of Japanese executives.
I thought it was made in Saigon 😮
I could only imagine what that gas mileage would be without the electric motor.
The same
From my observation Every cars and trucks has their own FLAWS… And these are the FLAWS that i’ve found on the TUNDRA trucks…Toyota needs to upgrade premium speakers for better sounds, upgrade the keyfob as well it’s kinda plasticky and cheap. Eliminates and no more middle hump on the floor in the backseats and Add front tow hooks also… if Toyota fix these problems they sell them trucks like hot cakes !
Toyota’s not good at that kind of engineering Go Honda Mazda Hyundai Kia for that
Toyota unlike all other Manufacturers use a Nickel battery pack and not a lithium. There is a reason and that is weight and safety. If I was purchasing a truck it would be this one, but not many are available and the up charge on these is crazy.
Hope this new gen sells well enough for Toyota to make a true Raptor competitor. Call it the Ironman Stewart Edition.
It doesn’t sell well at all. A highlander outsells this by an absolute mile
No rear underseat storage is really a huge knock for me....
Thats a deal breaker if you can constently feel the engine switching back on everytime you put your foot down like its changing another gear that will get old fast..
The screen being the biggest isn’t a selling point when all of the other big trucks are just better overall.
Toyota is the best, my CAB driver told me so.
This is a 2023 model not 24 … all 24 trd pro have black headliner and has the red trd upper control arms

@@benbourke21 that’s what I have 2022 tundra trd pro lunar rock with red interior that was in USA had a short run.. so very rare color combo I love it …lunar was replaced with magnetic gray metallic for 23-24 models also

Reliable? Right… 😂 There’s a recall where the tundra may start on fire. And turbo wastegate issues, poor quality, poor fit finish Yeah sure… it’s “reliable” alright 😂
@naveenthemachine don't forget now they are blowing engines due to bearing failures. It's all over the forums.
I won't pay a dollar more than $240,000. $270,000 Tops. But it better have $35,000 in port installed options. And I won't pay more than $27,000 for market adjustment. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and shortages and social distancing fees of $6800.
I went with the GMC sierra 2024 over the toyota. I just felt like they just slapped some new tech into the same old design. I love Toyota and Lexus but they need to up there game .
A PHEV pickup would be really nice for those that barely use a pickup's features most days but still need the power those few times a year (half of pickups out there). 85% of the time I use my 1/2 ton pickup for basic errands around a suburban town and usually use less than 25 miles a day on the days that I use it. Would be nice for all electric for those short trips and have the engine drivetrain for the other 15% where I am towing/hauling my 8000 lb RV for the weekend (the only real times I actually need the full power of the pickup). Full Electric when towing is not there yet and fast charging while connected to a trailer is even harder to come by. There should be some govt incentives towards PHEV's in the pickup sector as that is a popular vehicle type in the US (especially the south).
sorry to tell ya, but this is a 23 not a 24 since it lacks black headliner
