the hybrid does very little for gas mileage anyways, its just for more torque at low rev range. You're not missing much. Battery replacement is easily 3-4k with non-oem batteries, probably double that with OEM. You're really not missing much other than the fancy new toys/gadgets which in reality makes no difference from going A-to-B. End of the day, new cars are just new toys, going A-to-B will always end up being durability and reliability.

I have a 2022 Tundra Limited that was made in early December 2021. I have 28k miles and my MPG is 19.2. Crazy, that truck only gets 18 MPG, he must put his foot into it all the time.

18mpg, you're better off with the V8 and no hybrid complications to repair down the road. The money you save in gas you'll be using it to replace turbos, wastegates, inverters, batteries, specialty components that interface the gasoline combustion side with the high voltage electrical side.

They honestly shoudlve used a more powerful e-motor n bigger batteries under the seat. Hybrids work best at stop-go and low speed traffic anyways, they eat as much fuel as nonhybrids when they reach highway speeds. In this engine’s defense (coz its also in the LS, LX, Sequoia and global Landcruiser), its definitely alot cleaner emission-wise compared to the old V8 n deliver power better, despite the very minor MPG improvement.

@cmdrls212

Only time will tell but turbos aren't a new tech and have been well understood and used in rigs putting a million miles easily without issues. Electric motors are even simpler with basically no issues as they have way less moving parts than any ic engine. The battery is still the only variable and they went with NIMH instead of lithium ion for reliability. The hybrid is just to produce more power at lower emissions, with less fuel consumption. If they tried that power figure from a natural aspirated engine, who knows what the mpg would be. Likely 10 highway 😂

People had 14 years to buy the previous gen Tundra/Sequoia brand new. And people did buy the Tundra. Toyota maintained 120k annual sales, but they were still overshadowed by the american Big Three. And if people didnt expect toyota to go down the downsizing n turbocharging route, well, they havent been reading the news. They were some of the last companies to do this, prefering to go down the hybrid route for most of their lineup, bar their trucks. That doesnt mean they were never going to, it was just a matter of time. Those following auto news were wondering how long will toyota keep that V8 alive in their trucks. Well, the appearance of the new gen Lexus LX back in 2021 shouldve been a major red flag. Twinturbo 3.4L V6 in a ladderframe chassis? Hmm. And in quick successions they released the new gen global Land Cruiser L300, Tundra, Sequoia, and even the Tacoma got the turbo-hybrid treatment.

I am leading the twin turbo non hybrid limited off road. On long trips it’s smooth and plenty of power. Transmission is so much another than previous models. The comfort in the cabin is much better.

I remember turbo timers. Some came with stock. People used to install them on non turbo cars, because it meant yours was a turbo.

People complaining about 18 mpg dont even realize the smaller tacoma 3.5 V6 gets 17 mpg. A big heavier more powerful truck gets better mpg than the midsize is a huge win

Toyota is using their past history of legendary reliability now as a marketing scheme. They won’t make cars as reliable anymore. Keep your 2000’s Japanese car.

Excellent video Scotty. It is a shame you don’t have the Toyota HiLux in the States, it would be interesting to compare we have a 2 seat and 4 seat cabs with different trim levels starting at £27k Active to £40k GR Sports with 2.4 diesel. Recent discussions with my radio Cell Tower engineer teams, they now only use either Toyota HiLux or the Mitsubishi L200 pick-up in the fleet, nothing else in the available U.K pick-up range, is quote “up-to the job” apparently.

I have a 2013 Sequoia with the 5.7 v8. It will definitely throw you back in your seat. Minebhas only 114k on it, it was 'old man owned' and largely it shows. It's a limited model with things like heated leather seats and a sunroof and a beautiful independent rear suspension. The the thing is huge but it honestly drives more like a very powerful minivan. It's also expensive. Expensive to buy, expensive to own. It's not a cheap truck. But it's well built and we plan on pulling an RV. Plus it has a 3rd row. Something most 4runners (Something I really wanted initially) doesn't have. I don't know about these turbo V6s let alone hybrids. The MPGs still obviously suck but I do love the looks of the new trucks. Just I think I would really miss the v8.

I have a 2023 Ram with a HEMI and it also has e-torque. I put a 1000 miles on it during are last vacation. This was a combination of highway and city driving. I averaged almost 21 MPG . Very happy with it.

I have the 2024 1794 edition with iForce Max and it's an absolute beast. The interior is luxurious and offers plenty of ubiquitous features. The v8 was nice, but you won't miss it once you try this new drivetrain.

Just picked up a platinum about 2 weeks ago in blueprint. Beautiful truck

My partner has one of these and its good overall. However the screen does cut out a lot and glitches. we also had to replace the plastic around the seat controls 3 times under warranty. Hopefully a permanent fix will come before warranty is out.

I keep waiting but I can't find a tundra that gets as much MPG as my 2003 4x4 with a simple six. It has consistently got 25 mpg since I pulled it off the lot. Best truck ever. The new trucks look nice but have way to much electronics that do nothing more than create a huge expensive repair in the future.

Mine gets 19 city and yes, I tow 7000lbs daily and get about 10.5-11 mph. I love this Platinum. Miss my V8 too but the hybrid is the wise choice and will keep the engine running longer and smoother!

@@scorpio_9810 I finally got one! And you are right, it is a pleasure to drive! My work commute occasionally takes along a 90 mile stretch of Hwy 101 along the Northern California coast through forests and prairies with herds of Elk and across rivers in all kinds of weather and road conditions. Yes, I did love my 2008 Honda Ridgeline but this beast is even better! And yes, IT IS A GAS HOG.

Killing off the V8 for the Tundra is probably one of the dumber things Toyota has done. I mean GM has done dumb things too, but at least they still offer their non-turbo V8 engines in their trucks (quality is another story, but at least it's an option for those who want the power, without the headaches of turbos; same for Ford, they still offer their V8 model at least for now until they kill off gas engines completely, last I checked). I guess the only "good" thing is that Toyota didn't do a 4 cylinder twin tRubo because when those turbos go out, any truck with a 4 cylinder engine is virtually useless, especailly a 1/2 ton truck (a small truck like the Tacoma might be fine but not a full-size truck). So the V6 may have a chance of getting somewhere with one or both turbos blown. So it does atl east have a V6 engine, and probably a powerful one at that, not considering the effects of the dual turbos). I mean at 18 mpg, I guess if you want the Toyota quality that's one thing, but if you're looking for gas mileage, you might as well just get a Ford or GM that's a regular V8 gas engine (no turbo) and likely have fewer (or possibly less expensive) repairs in the future. The biggest issue with some of the Chevy V8 was their AFM system (although it's not found in all of their V8 engines, only some of them, and some of the modern V6's I think too). The older ones from 2010-2015 were the worst.

@@reneeandchrisforeverNo you're right not with a Tundra specifically, but I have with Ford and GM vehicles among others, but the same seems to hold true -- the V6 engines (non-turbo) are not as powerful as the V8's. Period. And for those V6's that are turbo charged, maybe they will have more power than a standard non-turbo V8 but then you are also setting yourself up for some expensive repairs in the future (which will need to happen at some point). Plus people who do real towing on a regular/semi-regular basis (which I have done) tend to not worry too much about fuel economy. It's important, but only to a point. An extra 5 MPG for example is not a huge deal to those who are buying a truck for work because they are buying the truck to do work, not for gas mileage. Only the "wannabe" truck owners are the ones that obsess about this. Plus why kill off something that has proven to be popular and reliable? That's just dumb. GM and Ford know this from first hand experience, and yet they still haven't learned. At least Toyota still uses geared transmissions in many of their vehicles for example (like the Camry, and most of their mid/large trucks).

A few months ago i bought a new pickup. 2007 4.6L f150 with 130k miles. 4000. The thought of buying a new pickup like this toyo is out of the question - the price they want is just mind boggling. Bought my wife a new Subaru for 34k a couple yrs ago. Praying we can get it to last a long long time.

Service that 4.6L Ford properly and it will return many, many, many years of trouble free service.

18 mpg is the same milage a friend's PT cruiser sedan got, I was surprised it was that bad, was expecting at least 30 mpg for a smaller car.

Back in 2008, GMC came out with a Sierra 1500 hybrid pickup that got 20-23 MPG with a V8 6L engine. I own a GMC Yukon hybrid with the same setup with over 205K miles getting around 20 MPG-that with a heavy foot in the Sierra Mountains. That’s with no turbo. Now that Toyota getting 21-24 mpg is not an advancement from over a decade of new technology.

For comparison, I own a 2021 Ford F-150 Powerboost 4x4. Just got home from a 2500 mile trip across the midwest into the Rockies of Colorado. Highway speeds varied from 75-81 mph on the plains and 55-70 mph. My overall mpg was 22.2. In town, I average about 24 mpg. Towing is just like a full gas engine, about 12-15 mpg.

I just think if we think for just a moment, that 8 injectors for 4 cylinders is a clearly bad idea in the long run. That is dumb. 1 cylinder per injector. Even if it needs to be a bigger injector with 2 nossles going into paths to different spots if it was done right. 8 injectors for 4 cylinders is stupid. Port injection keeps the valves clean and works good old fashioned way. Direct injection gets better atomization but your valeves get all caked in carbon so its unreliable to have just direct but you know whats even more unreliable than direct injection? Direct and port injection at the same time in the event you have to replace injectors. Or idk, also having to pay for 4 extra injectors on debt when you take a loan to buy the car when you werent supposed to buy those 4 until the first 4 gave up tbe ghost. But now, now when your injectors go bad youll be buying 8 for your economy car. How many injectors does a ferarri have? Pay attention

Are you joking, pranking, or just uninformed about how dangerous it is to be in 4x4 at highway speeds? While most of the time you won't have an issue, a truck 4x4 system will cause wheels to slip/drag due to trying to spin at the same speed when cornering, when actually the inner wheels need to spin slower than the outer wheels. Drive on grass, dirt, or gravel and turn sharp while driving slowly and you'll hear and feel what I'm talking about. Only AWD vehicles are made for highway speeds. Truck 4x4s should only be driven relatively slow in 4wd. Maybe I'm being overly cautious, but that's what I was taught.

First time buying a Toyota truck and it was the biggest disappointment ever. It was a 2022 Tundra SR5. Cheap plastic everywhere, console rattle, switches not ergonomically located, hood design relected sun in your face from two places, infotainment that never understood speech, back seat back that folded down(not flat??) with no storage behind, remote start shuts down when you open door(why Toyota) many more. 10 months later had to trade for real truck, 2022 Ram 3500 4X4. I am now happy!!!

I have a 2 wheel drive 2022 limited. It gets about 23 mpg driven normally in eco mode on city streets not the interstate. I have a lead foot at times though. In eco the lowest I have got so far is 17mpg. In sport mode and my lead foot I have gotten about 15mpg as the lowest. Really, not too bad for such a large truck. I am sure four wheel drive gets much lower mpg. I wanted four wheel drive but didn’t need it. I will get a beater if I ever want to go out in the woods.

"changing it for gas mileage really didn't do that much". That's a common misconception. They dont change them for better gas mileage. They change them with all this expensive technology to meet strict emissions standards.

What you feel and what actually happens are two different things I think. If you look at acceleration facts when comparing the outgoing Tundra vs this new one, the new one consistently outperforms the old one on every acceleration statistic, by a very wide margin. Just because this new one is smoother, doesn't mean it is slower. The numbers don't lie.
