2025 Toyota Tundra in a Nutshell
When Toyota first dipped its toes in the full-size pickup market, it started with the T100. It wasn’t exactly a smash hit, mainly because it was awkwardly sized, although the lack of a V8 option was another possible factor. Thankfully, that was rectified by the Tundra in 1998, which made it more competitive against the Chevrolet C/K and Silverado, Dodge Ram, and Ford F-150.
Nearly 30 years have passed since the first Tundra rolled out, and a couple of generations have been made since then. We’re now in the third generation of the large truck, and it made its debut in mid-2021 for the 2022 model year. While it’s still behind the American trucks in terms of sales, it still remains a solid and popular choice for full-size pickup buyers.
The 2025 Tundra is available in ten trim levels. From there, one can choose between two body styles (Double Cab or CrewMax), three bed lengths (5.5 ft, 6.5 f,t and 8.1 ft), and two powertrain options. Prices range from $40,090 to $80,725.
2025 Toyota Tundra Lease Deals for November
It’s the 2025 model year Tundras that are available with a special leasing promo this month. At the time of writing, there are none available for the 2026 just yet. That said, there are lease deals for two specific trims, namely the SR5 2WD CrewMax and the Limited i-Force Max 4WD CrewMax.
For the SR5 2WD CrewMax, the offer stands at $409 for 36 months with $5,408 due at signing. As for the Limited i-Force Max 4WD CrewMax, that one goes for $479 for 36 months with $5,478 due at signing. Toyota allows 12,000 miles per year with an additional charge of $0.18 for every mile exceeded. This promo is valid until December 1, 2025.
2025 Toyota Tundra Highlights
As with any full-size pickup, there are loads of configurations available for the Tundra. The ten trim levels one can choose from are the SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, Limited i-Force Max, Platinum i-Force Max, 1794 Edition i-Force Max, TRD Pro, and Capstone. The SR, SR5, and Limited come in regular Double Cab body styles but can be configured as a CrewMax with longer rear doors. The rest of the range is CrewMax only.
The Double Cab versions get a 6.5-foot bed with an 8.1-foot bed as an option. CrewMax bed lengths start at 5.5 feet, and there is a 6.5-foot option for those who need or prefer it. Most Tundra trims are either rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, regardless of model grade, although the TRD Pro and Capstone get four-wheel drive as standard. All shift with a ten-speed automatic transmission.
From the SR to the 1794 Edition, those Tundras are powered by a 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6. Save for the SR, that engine makes 389 hp and 407 lb-ft of torque. The entry-level SR gets a detuned version with 358 hp and 406 lb-ft. As for the hybrid models (Limited i-Force Max and up), those still use the same 3.4-liter block with help from a single electric motor and a 1.87 kWh battery pack. The result is a combined output of 473 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque.
Final Thoughts
Admittedly, the non-hybrid V6 twin-turbo doesn’t have the most stellar reliability record. There is a recall issued for that, mainly affecting models from 2022 to 2024. Toyota is in the process of finding a remedy for the problem and will notify owners as early as January 2026. Thankfully, the hybrid models are unaffected by the matter.
Still, it’s a capable truck that can tow up to 12,000 and, in hybrid form, can still deliver about 20 mpg around the city. As far as capabilities go, the Tundra still delivers the goods just as well as its American competitors.
