Toyota continues to uphold its reputation of manufacturing trucks that handle even the most challenging terrains. They offer the convenience, performance, and towing capacity to overcome challenging trails or weekday worksites. Here are the two great new Toyota trucks from the 2021 lineup:
1. The 2021 Toyota Tacoma
The Tacoma is an excellent fit for buyers looking to purchase a well-equipped midsize truck that can handle rough terrain. Its top features include:
Performance
Toyota provides two powertrain options in the 2021 Tacoma; a 2.7-liter four-cylinder that puts out 159 horsepower and the more powerful 278-horsepower 3.5-liter V6. Power transmission can be through a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic. The transmission shifts smoothly and gets the most out of the engine. This truck boasts sporty off-road capabilities with responsive steering and composed handling.
The off-road has enhanced TRD trim features including unique suspension tuning and shock absorbers, skid plates, and locking rear differential.
Interior and Comfort
High-quality materials on seats and doors make the Tacoma’s interior pleasant. The controls are straightforward, and visibility is excellent thanks to a well-profiled hood, ample side windows, and a forward- and side-looking camera system. Divers will enjoy the 10-way power seat that provides a more excellent adjustability range than in previous models.
The Access Cab Tacoma seats four with a 6-foot-1-inch bed, while the Double Cab models seat five with a 5-foot bed.
Technology
This Tacoma infotainment system comes with a user-friendly seven or 8-inch touch screen. There are physical controls on the center stack, making it easier for drivers to control climate and audio settings. With the standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, smartphone integration is easy. It also features vast safety features such as adaptive cruise control and a driver drowsiness warning system.
2. The 2021 Toyota Tundra
The 2021 Tundra is a full-size truck with impressive hauling and off-road capability. Buyers will enjoy:
Performance
This Toyota workhorse features a 5.7-liter V8 that makes 381 horsepower. All models utilize a six-speed automatic transmission with smooth shifts and deliver brisk acceleration. The Tundra’s suspension absorbs road imperfections perfectly, and the stable handling makes maneuverability excellent even in cramped areas. It can tow up to 10,200 pounds and haul 1730 pounds.
Interior and Comfort
The Tundra provides a spacious cabin with a functional design. It seats up to six people, and both Access and Double Cab styles include two seat rows. Occupants will enjoy the comfortable seats, with plenty of head and legroom in the front and rear seats. The Tundra has three beds depending on the cab style; a 5-foot-6inch, 6-foot-6-inch, and an 8-foot-1-inch bed. It incorporates two LATCH connector sets and a tether anchor for child seat safety.
Technology
A standard Entune infotainment system comes standard, with a responsive touchscreen. It features Amazon Alexa, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and a six-speaker stereo. Some of the available driving aids include automatic emergency braking and lane departure monitoring.
