Toyota shows a picture of the engine of the new Tundra 2022: it could be a powerful V6

The new 2022 Toyota Tundra is still a long way off. However, the firm has shared an image that suggests the new pickup will have a V6 engine just like its 2022 Toyota Land Cruiser sister.

Full disclosure Toyota Tundra 2022 won't arrive until September, however James Gilboy reached out to the automaker to find out everything he could about engine the base of the next generation pickup truck, which.

Now, a new look from Toyota seems to confirm that hunch even more.

Toyota has shown an image that is nothing short of engine cover with "iForce MAX" decalwhich doesn't seem to matter much. However, if you take a closer look and you will only notice three segments on each side of the badge. what is visible hints at three cylinders per bank, only six.

Each of Toyota's iForce engines in the past had four segments per side, and in case you didn't know, they were all V8s up to this point. The outgoing Tundra has an 8-liter iForce V5.7, and before that there were 4.6- and 4.7-liter engines; each time hinted at the presence of eight cylinders. In this case, there are only six.

It's perfectly normal for automakers to decorate their engine shrouds and try to depict what's underneath because you can't, you know, see it for what it is. We hope that soon it will be known exactly about the regular power plant of the Tundra.

It should be noted that these are all assumptions and most likely Toyota is misleading us, but Regardless, you can expect the next generation Tundra to have more horsepower and torque. than ever, no matter what's under the hood. Oh, and don't trust the 6-litre V3.5 hybrid.
