Hybrid Tech for a Toyota Truck

We don't just sell dependable sedans and crossovers here at Bell Road Toyota. You'll also find sell rugged SUVs and trucks among our selection of new Toyota vehicles. One of our favorite pickups is the Toyota Tundra and we're getting ready to welcome a next-generation of this tough truck soon. We're keeping an eye out for the latest news about it, and the biggest surprise is that it might come with some hybrid power.

That's right. The 2021 Toyota Tundra might offer a hybrid option. According to the latest rumors, it could use a 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine along with some sort of electrification. That would be a big change from the current model, which currently offers two V8 engine options. The current Toyota Tundra has a maximum output of 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque. The next-generation hybrid version could beat that.

How is that possible with a smaller engine? While most people think of fuel savings when they shop for green cars, electric motors can actually add quite a bit of power as well. An electric motor supporting a turbocharged V6 engine could boost the total output of the Toyota Tundra to 450 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque! We can't wait to see what kind of towing numbers a hybrid Toyota Tundra model can put out, and we can't wait to learn more about this greener truck when it makes its official debut.
