The TRD Off-Road trim brings knobby tires, rugged outdoor looks, and a retuned suspension to Toyota's bestselling crossover.

For the average person, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 TRD Off-Road strikes a great balance between grocery getter and two-track champion. As a crossover, it's fundamentally optimized for the rigors of the paved world, but its rugged looks promise a vehicle that would hold its own if you took it mudding alongside a Wrangler Rubicon. Americans' interest in adventure...

Here we are again with another 2022 Toyota Tundra teaser as the automaker continues the truck's slow reveal. Never mind the fact we've seen the entire the truck's exterior. Today, its about the interior again and the brand showed off a fan-favorite feature that will stick around for the new pickup: the power rear window.

Yes indeed, the 2022 Tundra's rear glass will open for maximum airflow as this type of function becomes increasingly uncommon in new vehicles. In addition to the power rear window, at least some form of…

After images of the upcoming all-new 2022 Toyota Tundra pickup were leaked on the internet by an anonymous source months ahead of its scheduled unveiling in September, Toyota has released an official photo of the full-size truck.

The white four-door depicts the redesigned Tundra in its TRD Pro high performance off-road trim.

The truck's most distinguishing feature is an enormous grille with LED light strips in that's highlighted in the photo by the vehicle's black and white color scheme.

Toyota has promised that the new Tundra "will blow you…

We expect Toyota's new iForce Max hybrid drivetrain to use either a twin-turbo or naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V-6.
 

• Toyota shared an image of the new Tundra's engine cover, which shows three intake runners per side.
• We think it suggests a hybrid setup with a V-6 gas engine, either twin-turbocharged or naturally aspirated.
• The 2022 Tundra will debut soon, and it should go on sale in the U.S. by the end of the year.

Toyota will debut the new Tundra full-size pickup truck later this year, and we've already…

All-New Compact SUV with Available AWD a Welcome Addition to the Corolla Family

PLANO, Texas (June 2, 2021) – For more than 50 years, Corolla has been synonymous with dependability, fuel efficiency, safety and value – and today, Toyota is evolving the series even further. Based on the ever-popular Corolla sedan, the all-new 2022 Corolla Cross, which made its U.S. debut today, is the bold compact crossover you didn’t know you needed until now.

“Our loyal customers love the quality, durability and reliability that has...

It shares the Limited trim's X-REAS suspension and gets 20-inch wheels.

People love Toyota's 4Runner SUV. I mean, it's rugged, super capable off-road, has epic resale value and looks the business. But on the flip side, it's also ponderous on-road, thirsty, old and expensive to buy (new or used). Toyota has taken a stab at mitigating some of those negative things by offering the 4Runner in more configurations than you can shake a stick at, and according to an announcement made on Tuesday, it's about to get another…

Is this a preview of what's to come with the hardcore Tacoma TRD Pro?

It is now an annual expectation that Toyota updates the TRD Pro versions of its Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner, and Sequoia off-road trucks and SUVs. Typically, these changes are minor (a new paint color here, a new snorkel intake there), so we're not going to read too much into Toyota's release of two photos depicting what appear to be the front wheels of two separate Tacoma pickups. Or should we?

"The Toyota Sequoia is old. I mean, it's practically ancient in automotive terms, with the current generation having debuted for the 2008 model year. It's time for the ol' three-row to get sent to a farm upstate, and, according to a press release from Toyota issued on Wednesday, that might be happening sooner rather than later.

Now, I say "might be" because in its press release Toyota stated that it has two new three-row, eight-passenger SUVs in the works, both of which will be built at the company's Indiana…

Today's headlines are mostly about hybrid, plug-in, and electric sports cars, sedans, SUVs, and even trucks! It's no secret that automakers have shifted their focus from developing gasoline-powered vehicles to ones with large batteries—and some are even ending the development of new internal combustion engines. Then there's Toyota, who appears to be developing an all-new twin-turbo V8 engine.

While the hydrogen-pushing, electric-pickup building, plug-in hybrid king has made a name for itself by owning fuel economy, it also has a Bad Boy side. Per ...

In late February, Toyota Motor Corp. President Akio Toyoda gathered with a handful of Shinto priests in a white tent at the foot of Mount Fuji. The group prayed — as is customary when embarking on new builds in Japan — for the smooth completion of a new city to be designed and built by the world’s largest automaker.
At the site of a recently shuttered factory, Toyoda commented on the significance of replacing a plant that’s churned out cars since the ‘60s with a 175-acre community to test future technologies such as…
