Understanding the Towing Capacity of the Toyota Tundra and Tacoma in New Holland

If you are considering buying the Toyota Tundra or Tacoma, there is a good chance you have some questions about towing capacity. The Tundra is a full-size truck that provides more power, but the midsize Tacoma is respectable in its own right. Here is a look at how each Toyota truck might fit your needs.

Tundra

The Tundra has four engine options: a 3.4-liter gas engine and a 3.4-liter hybrid near Thorndale. The towing capacity for the gas engine ranges from 8,300 to just over 11,000 pounds, depending on your trim choice. All versions of the gas 3.4 also peak at 389 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque.

Called the i-Force Max, the hybrid powertrain's towing capacity varies slightly above 10,000 to slightly over 11,000 pounds. The hybrid achieves 437 horsepower and 583 pound-feet of torque, too.

Tacoma

The Tacoma also has two 2.4-liter engine options near Lititz. Once more, one is gas-only, and the other is a hybrid. Notably, the towing capacity for the Tacoma depends more on the trim level. For example, the base SR trim offers a peak of 3,500 pounds of towing with the gas powertrain. However, the TRD Sport trim offers a maximum of 6,500 pounds with the same engine. All versions of the hybrid come in at around 6,000 pounds of towing capacity.
