Content
The SX package also adds darkened interior trim and badgeless doors.
Toyota adds styling to its 2023 Tundra with a new SX package. With it, you get new wheels, blacked out trim and, yes, affordable matte black paint.
As always, there are several different trims available for the 2023 Tundra: SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794, TRD Pro and . If you opt for the SR5 trim, you can opt for the new SX package, which comes with 18-inch dark gray metal wheels, body-color trim for the door handles and rear bumper, no-badge doors, and if you get the Tundra 4x4 : Black "4×4" badge on tailgate. Inside, the usual smoky silver trim has been replaced with black accents.
4 new colors are available for the 2023 Tundra.
Four new colors are also available: White, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Sky Blue Metallic, and Midnight Black Metallic Roof. Punisher logos with American flag sold separately.
The 2023 Toyota Tundra offers the same twin-turbocharged V6 engines as the 2022 model. A twin-turbocharged 6-liter V3.5 with 389 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque is standard, while an optional hybrid offers 437 horsepower and 583 lb. -ft. feet of torque. The latter uses an electric motor located in the hood between the engine and transmission, which draws its electricity from an old-school nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery like the one you find in the Prius. Don't be fooled, the 2023 Toyota Tundra is definitely not a Prius.
Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and its off-road capabilities
If you opt for the TRD Pro or any other Tundra 4x4 with the TRD Off-Road Package, you'll get a ton of standard off-road features. Multi-Terrain Select, which adjusts traction settings for different terrain; Crawl Control, which is essentially a four-wheel low-speed cruise control; and Downhill Assist Control, which makes steep descents much easier.
Those same trucks also get an electronically controlled locking rear differential and Multi-Terrain Monitor, which uses surround view cameras to check for potential off-road obstacles, as standard.
