5 Impressive Features of the 2021 Toyota Tundra

The 2021 Toyota Tundra brings decades of experience and expertise to the Nova Scotia roads, giving drivers plenty of power and capacity, and making sure you look good while you do it. You will feel secure both off-road and around the city, thanks to driver assistance and off-road-specific setups, so check out the top features below and get excited about your test drive!

1. Strong Towing Capacity

Every Tundra is powered by a chunky 5.6-liter V-8 engine, connected to a six-speed transmission, and available in Rear-wheel or Four-wheel drive. With the V-8 you get 381 horse-power and 401lb-ft of torque, supplying plenty of thrust. All of this means you can tow up to 10,200lbs, with even the weakest option still hauling an impressive 8,800lbs, and with the right configuration, you can carry 1730lbs on the open bed at the back of the vehicle.

2. Off-Road-Ready Options

The Tundra comes into its own once you take it off the beaten path, and it excels in off-road situations. These capabilities are most fully on display in the TRD Pro variant, which has a host of special features that make sure you’re ready for whatever the landscape throws at you.

The TRD Pro has internal bypass dampers at every corner of the vehicle, and TRD-exclusive springs that increase wheel travel at both ends of the truck. The dampers smooth out ruts and ridges, letting you keep your speed up without getting jolted out of your seat, and a TRD skid plate underneath the vehicle protects the truck from unwanted attention from rocks or debris.

3. Spacious Cabin

You would be forgiven for mistaking the Tundra’s cab for a living room, given how spacious it feels. Both the driver’s row of seats and the passengers behind have comfortable legroom and good visibility, both out of the front and the back windscreens. With the rear seats folded down, you also get a class-leading luggage capacity, to add to the already spacious bed in the back of the truck.

4. Driver Assistance Technology

Visibility and maneuvering can be problems with larger vehicles like this one, but the Tundra resolves this difficulty with all models carrying a suite of safety features. You will benefit from adaptive cruise control that keeps you at a safe distance from the car in front, lane departure warnings to ensure you don’t drift by accident, and automatic emergency braking assistance.

5. Good-Looking Exterior

The Tundra is available in six different trim levels: SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, and TRD Pro. You can choose from up to twelve different paint colors, and each trim offers variations on material and color for the interior furnishings, ensuring you’ll end up with a truck to suit your tastes.

So, whether you’re an experienced pickup driver, or it’s your first time venturing off-road for a muddy adventure, the Tundra deserves to be at the top of your shopping list.
