@@diostejastierras7898 that could be the case. They have to release the numbers at some point. I hope they didn’t just prioritize the horsepower and torque over mpg efficiency. That would be an easy no for me on this and the sequoia.
Kind of a dumb question, but if the electric motor goes between the engine and transmission, if for some reason the electric part is broken, would the car still drive using only the engine?
good question, as the guy said... If the clutch is open, no engine power can pass through. So I'd say the answer to your question is yes, if that module breaks, it is possible you are not going anywhere. But, I sure would like to hear from the Experts at Toyota about this.
Wait until you have to take it to stealership for repair! It wont be so awesome then! Haha. Why cant they just give us a turbo diesel like the Aussies!!!
Everything rusts like crazy in the salt belt. Reach out to your state officials and tell them to stop using it. It’s terrible for your car and the environment. There are states that get tons of snow that don’t use salt. There are other ways.
Great setup! It ain’t a 5.7 v8 that’s already proven. Maybe in 20 years we can talk about how it kept up with the 5.7. This is for those guys with skirts who complain about MPG.
The 5.7 hasn’t even been in production for 20 years and you are wanting the 3.5L to be tested for 20 years to prove itself against the 5.7? That doesn’t make sense.
I'm a mechanical engineer and I'm trying to work at Toyota of Brazil, I have applied for many jobs there, this is my dream, to work at Toyota do Brasil.
I’m ready for the mpg numbers to see how well it does in stop and go traffic and short distances. With this hybrid system in the winter will this allow for faster cabin heat without the gas motor having to get up to temp?
I think if they said a v8 with 437 hp and gets 24 mpg people would go crazy. People are expecting 30mpg. Im not familiar with toyota hybrid but I know jeep hybrid heats up super fast.
@@wongchai807 I’m not expecting 30 and I realize they went for power in mind when they made it, but with normal around town travel I’m definitely expecting 18-20 combined with the hybrid. I think the Jeeps just heat up quick regardless. I have a JL and it’s similar.
I didn't catch it. Is the HVAC system electric now? If it's start/stoping at a light or cruising on electricity do those systems still operate? Power Steering? Brakes? Or does the engine need to be spinning for those items?
Awesome video. Toyota could you make a video showing us the non hybrid frame, and driveline components highlighting the specific differences between the non hybrid and hybrid!
Finally Toyota made a frame that can complete with Nissan and if they can make it not rust that would be good too. The Titan is twice the truck the last gen Tundra is
Twin Turbo sounds like problems. Or are they better now? There are those that just want to drive a truck, there are those that only will tow, but there are many that used to buy a truck for farms, oilfield, etc., Where having seats with a smooth material that can be wiped clean, as well as floorboard covers that neither hold moisture where they can simply be washed out. I'm curious if this is too small of a market or something?
Holy powertrain, Batman! This thing is an awesome beast. Even just looking at what's shown here, the attention to the details..my mouth is watering 🤤.That frame and drivetrain. AND its a hybrid with 437 crank hp?! WOW!!!! I would love to have one of those if I had a bunch of $$ in my pocket. Kia and Ford are making sub-compact "trucks" with high-mileage capabilities and smaller load capacities The Ford Maverick really appeals to me. I've always been a Toyota man however. If Toyota made something along those lines, I'd be all over it. It could be based on the Camry, unibody to save weight and costs. Now that would be so cool. Toyota. Bring this up to the production and design team. Oh and please don't put another brand engine and parts in it...ahem, Supra/BMW. As soon as I heard that it was not all Toyota, I crossed it off my list.
TRD Pro comes out in March and then the Sequoia in Summer since it only has the hybrid choice. Plus they don't have enough chips at the moment for TRDs to be shipped I believe
After all that great technology and engineering creating that much HP and torque and incorporating the motor drive in with the engine, upgrading suspension, frame strength, when it comes to the actual truck bed itself - is it still going to be that cheap lightweight plastic composite that requires bed lifts on the rear corners to keep it from ripping apart if you go off-roading or if you put a camper shell or carry too heavy a load and the composite breaks apart w/o the extra after market supports? And if so, then why isn't Toyota simply installing the extra supports for that weak rear bed corner before they leave the factory, so then bed integrity and long lasting bed life is guaranteed? Thanks.
I would seriously consider upgrading from my 2008 Tundra but you guys just wont make a N/A V8 anymore. Just put a direct injection 5.7 in the thing with a 10speed like everyone is asking. I trust Toyotas reliability but have no interest in a vehicle with a turbo much less one with a hybrid system. That’s just too much going on for a truck that is used for work.
So why did you make the turning radius worse? Visibility worse? Why is the V6 barely brating the current V8s on the market in terms of MPG? Why is the bed narrower? Why did you shrink head room to now be worst in clase, and you shrunk the interior dimensions? The rear tunnel hump is still there, WTF is so hard about giving us a flat loading area when the back seats are up. This is one of the many signs that show the design/engineer team is incompetent. How bout telling us why you uses an under powered 400w plug in the bed that will barely power a coffe maker, but the Sienna has a 1500w plug. So your premier work truck can't even compete with a soccer moms mini van. Great iob there guys 👏👏. Or how bout the seats being too short so they are absurdly uncomfortable? Or the entry handles that are built for people 5'3 or smaller, almost completely useless for an average sized guy? Why does is the wireless charger incapable of keeping the phone charged when using the navigation? The interior on these trucks have been way too dim for over a decade, well guess what, it's still dim as hell, apparently fixing lumination was beyond the engineers capability. Why the hell is the crawl control/4wd selector right where we all spill our food and drinks as it's right on top of the cup holders? You had a ton of dash real-estate to place it. But nope, God forbid you use some common sense. And what's with that shitty redneck sister banging camo print on the fenders?? Really? No options to get rid of that garbage in the TRD PRO? Oh and zero recovery hooks on your most off road capable version? And how about losing all the interior storage space in the TRD PRO, it's not like storage space is a premium when off roading/camping. Here was an opportunity to be innovative by moving the batteries some place else, maybe under the truck like Rivian, or design so slick storage options like the ram power boxes built into the bed. But nope, zero innovation or thought put into this, and you used old battery technology. Or how about the tail gate being harder for egress/ingress then the old model and is far harder to access then any other truck on the market...and dont you dare use the absurd cope out answer Mike Swears gave about not adding complexity. You literally gave us a twin turbo with a redesined cooling. This is the very definition of complexity, so you went backwards there....there are a ton of other miss fires too, it's sad after 15yrs you gave us a less functional truck that's barely current with 2020 models of the Big 3 trucks, your 22 doesn't even compete against 2021 models. You should be completely embarrassed by this Truck.
So it's a damn 4 link with bags sway bar n pan hard bar seems like toyota is really behind calling that technology, but the engine management is bad ass prod even has elon likin that, also was the engine used as a gennie also?
The time will tell how good is new Tundra, as per my experience now these days where most of the manufacturers trying to reduce costs making vehicles with cheap products & selling them very expensive never listen to what advertised, wait until it's already in the market for at least two years & proves it free of problems. @GMC (8L90) Shuddering, Harsh Shifting... @GMC Magneride Suspension I think now GM owners know what I am talking about.
Hi D DEMCHAK, we hear you. We had performance and efficiency objectives for the new Tundra, and we met and exceeded those objectives with our new twin-turbo V6 engine. It is more powerful and more efficient than our outgoing V8, and as the i-FORCE MAX proves, it’s a platform we can build upon.
Once again Toyota doesn’t build the configurations I’d like. The ideal truck for a work would be a SR crewmax 6.5 foot bed with hybrid and air suspension at least as an option. Hybrid is available in all trims in other Toyotas why not tundra?
How about don’t be a cheap ass and get the SR5 instead? Then maybe you wouldn’t whine anymore because you’d had everything you wanted.. Aside from it not being an SR.
why do you think you need a hybrid? It is not like the truck is going to get you from point A to B using the electric motor only, as on electric power only, the truck only can go 16 MPH max. It is only rated at 48 HP
Don't tell me Toyota couldn't drop that stupid battery pack 6" lower so we can add a back seat storage over it, and put front tow hooks in front bumper since they were complaining about no place to put it down low ,aaaand no step area on bumper come on guys if you raising prices at least don't cut corners !People are noticing !Hey Toyoda now go fix your mistakes please!
So much waisted space in front of the engine...could have made the cabin fit someone over 6' tall. Toyota exteriors are bigger, yet interiors are smaller.
Let's see a video with the guys who designed the front end. I would like to hear the justification for the absolutely gross-looking grill and front end. Even with Toyota's quality, I don't think I can buy something so ugly. This is the kind of truck you only drive at night... so your friends don't see you in it. #toyotafailedbig

Can't imagine the dealer labor cost down the road when all this technology starts to fail.
When they get their solid state battery ready for mass production in a couple of years this truck will be a beast.
With runaway fuel prices and inflation, purchase price and mpg are the top deciding factors.
Kind of a dumb question, but if the electric motor goes between the engine and transmission, if for some reason the electric part is broken, would the car still drive using only the engine?

No it would need repaired to drive.
the electric motor is also used to crank the engine so there would be no way to start if the electric system is broken

Yes cause going backwards is an awesome thing....Toyota has completely conned you
Is the rusting/breaking frame still an option on them?
Do you mean dodge?
Yes but it's extra.
What about the issues with the turbo waste gate. Is there a fix coming for that? I ask because I want the new Sequoia.
No one compares to you Toyota. You’re always the best ♥️

Well, I don't know about "best"... lets see how Toyota handles the Turbo issue the new Tundra''s are having already.
Just put a bigger v8 in it
I would like it to actually last
.
100% true words of a real truck owner.
Wait until you have to take it to stealership for repair! It wont be so awesome then! Haha. Why cant they just give us a turbo diesel like the Aussies!!!
Put some front tow hooks 🪝
Does the boxed-frame still rust like crazy in the salt belt?
Everything rusts like crazy in the salt belt. Reach out to your state officials and tell them to stop using it. It’s terrible for your car and the environment. There are states that get tons of snow that don’t use salt. There are other ways.
Time will tell how good this frame and truck is. SO far it is just words.

Love all the transparency and the confidence that Toyota has!
They ain't confident or transparent about the Twin Turbo wastegate issue that's been plaguing early production units.
Why are the “skid plates” plastic? How is that going to protect anything?
Toyota does not care about that. They only care about fuel mileage rating. Hence why no tow hooks, as they Suck down fuel.. according to Toyota
I loved the truck so much I placed my order and am expecting my 2022 tundra platinum in February.
I didn't catch it. Is the HVAC system electric now? If it's start/stoping at a light or cruising on electricity do those systems still operate? Power Steering? Brakes? Or does the engine need to be spinning for those items?
Awesome video. Toyota could you make a video showing us the non hybrid frame, and driveline components highlighting the specific differences between the non hybrid and hybrid!
Great engineering !
More like the total opposite.
🔧 🚫 🛻 💥 😡
That's how much u gotta take it apart for simple maintenance or to change a wastegate
If the clutch in the hybrid drive link breaks, can the engine still put power to the transmission?
similar result if the Drive shaft got broken , maybe it will keep driving using EV mode
I'd think a link breakage is pretty unlikely, but if it does the gas powertrain should still connect for driving
The hybrid battery seems pretty small. Wish it was bigger since it's a bigger vehicle
What happened with no Tow Hooks?
tow hooks suck down fuel, and Toyota only cares about Fuel Mileage.
Took u guys awhile to release this given this event was last year
Brilliant! I'm really loving this new Tundra 😍😍
Thank you for the kind words. We're thrilled it caught your eye! 😍
Not to bright are you 🤣🤣🤣
You'll fall out of love with it once they hand you the wastegate replacement bill.
I want a plug-in hybrid Tundra. I believe it's coming in the future,,, I hope.?
Did the electric-only drive mode ever become available?
The bean counters got to the batteries
i love Hybrid. the new tundra and sequoia looks pretty similar from engine to exterior just body size differe
I see the aftermarket is still going to have to do a cab mount chop to fit 35’s.
Finally Toyota made a frame that can complete with Nissan and if they can make it not rust that would be good too. The Titan is twice the truck the last gen Tundra is
