2025 Toyota Tundra price and specs: Big hybrid ute launches in Australia
Today at 08:00 PM
With a twin-turbocharged petrol hybrid V6 under the bonnet and a long list of standard equipment, the Tundra also comes with a big asking price.
- 2025 Toyota Tundra pricing and specifications
- 3.5-litre twin-turbo hybrid V6, 326kW/790Nm combined outputs
- 3700mm wheelbase, 4500kg braked towing capacity
- Priced from $155,990 before on-road costs
After a protracted initial release onto Australian roads as a full-service lease to a range of hand-picked customers, the 2025 Toyota Tundra is finally making its way into Toyota dealerships and showrooms around the country.
Imported into Australia from North America as a left-hand drive vehicle, the Toyota Tundra is converted to right-hand drive for local roads by Walkinshaw Automotive Group. This conversion uses purpose-made new and modified parts, as well as some steering and air conditioning components borrowed from the platform-sharing LandCruiser 300 Series.
The 2025 Toyota Tundra will come to Australia initally in one trim level – Limited. This is priced from $155,990 plus on-road costs, and Drive understands the Tundra Limited will be joined by a higher trim level in the future.
For reference, the similarly-sized Chevrolet Silverado kicks off from $130,500 before on-road costs, the Ford F-150 starts at $106,950, and the Ram 1500 is available from $119,950 – all also imported and then locally right-hand-drive remanufactured.
While non-hybrid variants of the Tundra are available in North America, Australian buyers will only have access to the ‘i-Force Max’ hybrid powertrain, which combines a a twin-turbocharged petrol V6 (290kW/649Nm) and motor generator in the 10-speed transmission (36kW/250Nm) for total combined outputs of 326kW/790Nm.
This compares to 313kW/624Nm from the 6.2-litre V8 in the Chevrolet Silverado, 298kW/678Nm from the 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V6 in the Ford F-150 and 291kW/556Nm from the soon-to-be-replaced Hemi V8 in the Ram 1500.
While Toyota claims the Tundra’s hybrid powertrain to be ‘highly efficient’, they are yet to publish any official fuel consumption ratings for the Australian market. For the sake of reference, both the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and Ram 1500 claim 12.2 litres per hundred kilometres, while the Ford F-150 claims slightly more at 12.5L/100km.
Standard equipment in the 2025 Toyota Tundra Limited includes heated and ventilated front seats with lumbar support, black synthetic leather upholstery, a 12.3-inch driver’s display and 14.0-inch central infotainment display (with wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto connectivity).
There’s also a 12-speaker JBL-branded sound system, digital rear-view mirror, dual-zone climate control, wireless phone charging, 20-inch alloy wheels and a limted-slip rear differential.
In terms of dimensions, The 2025 Toyota Tundra is 5955mm long, 2040mm wide and 1985mm wide. The wheelbase is 3700mm long, while the Tundra’s 4500kg braked towing capacity is matched to a 758kg payload.
However, specifications indicate the Tundra is only fitted with a 3500kg towbar from the factory.
The Tundra has a turning circle of 15.0 metres (measured at the tyre), meaning it’s not particularly suited for city driving.
