With the Toyota Tundra<\/a> approaching its 13th model year, reports have surfaced that a redesigned version of the well-loved pickup truck will be launched soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full-size truck’s current generation was launched in 2007. And although it has been refreshed in 2014, the basic build and engine of the pickup have not changed in any way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent reports suggest that Toyota will be releasing a redesigned version of the Tundra in 2021. This new version is rumored to have a hybrid powertrain and will run on a 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 combined with an electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While nothing is confirmed about the all-new 2021 Tundra yet, significant changes in its upcoming 2020 version also indicate that the brand is somehow cutting costs on production ahead of the release of a fully redesigned model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports suggest that Toyota may release a redesigned Tundra in 2021.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For the 2020 model year, the Tundra’s base 4.6-liter V8 engine and Flex Fuel option will be discontinued, leaving the 5.7-liter V8 as the only engine available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toyota<\/a> refused to comment on the reports, but consumers seem to be embracing the news that the 4.6-liter V8 is getting cut instead of the 5.7-liter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a full-size pickup truck, keeping the bigger, more powerful engine that makes 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque is more logical. Additionally, the 5.7-liter comes with a Flex Fuel option that is not available for smaller engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how does this relate to the likelihood of a redesigned Toyota Tundra being released in 2021?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact that Toyota is dropping the 4.6-liter V8 and Flex Fuel option could mean that the brand is going for a simplified second-generation Tundra because it’s in its final model year and that a third-gen will be coming soon.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
