Detailed 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro Review in Solar Octane With Just The Right Upgrades

Welcome back to our channel, where today we are diving into the highly anticipated 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro, the flagship off-road beast from Toyota. As the fourth generation of the Tundra TRD Pro lineup, this truck has undergone significant upgrades, combining hybrid power, cutting-edge technology, a full restyle inside and out, and rugged capabilities. In this comprehensive review, we'll explore the exterior and interior design, performance, features, and overall driving experience that make the 2023 Tundra TRD Pro a standout in its class.
The 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro exudes a commanding presence on the road with its refreshed aggressive and muscular design. The bold front grille, flanked by LED headlights, only adds a touch of awesome. With a raised suspension, skid plates, and 18-inch black alloy wheels wrapped in all-37-inch terrain tires, this customized Tundra TRD Pro is ready to conquer any terrain that comes its way.
Underneath the rugged exterior lies an assortment of off-road features that define the Tundra TRD Pro's capability. The Multi-Terrain Select system allows drivers to adjust traction control according to the conditions, while the electronically locking rear differential ensures optimal power distribution. Additionally, the TRD-tuned suspension, equipped with FOX internal bypass shocks, absorbs bumps and rough terrains with ease, offering a smooth and controlled ride. This truck drove great, as I mention in my POV drive.
Stepping inside the 2023 Tundra TRD Pro, you'll find a spacious and refined cabin that blends luxury with functionality. The premium leather-trimmed seats with red stitching not only offer exceptional comfort but also showcase attention to detail. The heated and cooled power-adjustable front seats ensure a personalized driving position, while the ample legroom and headroom in the rear ensure passenger comfort on long journeys.
Toyota has equipped the Tundra TRD Pro with a plethora of advanced technology features. The 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system takes center stage, providing seamless access to navigation, entertainment, and smartphone integration. With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, you can easily stay connected on the go. The JBL premium audio system delivers immersive sound quality, making every journey enjoyable.
The heart of the 2023 Tundra TRD Pro lies under the hood, where a robust 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6 engine combines to life with a Hybrid powerplant. This powerplant combination generates an impressive 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque. Toyota's commitment to fuel efficiency is showcased with the inclusion of a hybrid powertrain option, delivering both power and efficiency for the environmentally conscious.
The Tundra TRD Pro is equipped with a ten-speed automatic transmission, providing almost seamless gear shifts and enhancing overall driving dynamics. The truck's towing capabilities are decent although not up to a Ford F150 Raptor, with a maximum towing capacity of around 12,000 pounds.
Toyota's commitment to safety is evident in the 2023 Tundra TRD Pro. The truck comes equipped with an array of advanced safety features, including a comprehensive suite of driver assistance technologies. The Toyota Safety Sense system offers features like pre-collision warning with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. These technologies work together to provide an extra layer of safety and peace of mind for both the driver and passengers. But, no Level 1 or Level 2 self-driving features that you can get in the Rivian R1T and Ford F-150.
In conclusion, the 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro is a force to be reckoned with in the off-road truck segment. With its rugged design, powerful hybrid engine, advanced technology, and exceptional off-road capabilities, it's the ultimate companion for any adventure seeker or corporate executive. Whether you're tackling challenging terrains or cruising on the highway, the Tundra TRD Pro offers a comfortable and exhilarating driving experience.
If you're looking for a truck that combines brute strength, advanced technology, and uncompromising off-road prowess, the 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro is undoubtedly worth considering. The only issue is that it costs $75k, and with the upgrades Alex has done, you're looking at $80k before taxes. Either way, it's an impressive improvement to Toyota's commitment to innovation and their dedication to creating exceptional vehicles that push boundaries.

Congratulations, thats a sweet truck rode in it again yesterday.

[@fulviochaljub5102]

Was a lift needed for the 37” tires? Or did the truck need to be cut at all?

[@Driven-Productions]

No lift needed to my knowledge

I seriously doubt will get 19mpg especially with the 37'' tires.

[@Driven-Productions]

Definitely not plus the tune, he is averaging in the 15’s I believe.

[@chrismarbrey9678]

@@Driven-Productions I honestly could live with that. It's not horrible considering the tires and the tune.

Nice plastic Junk fan boy!

[@Driven-Productions]

I know your just trolling but I’m not a Tundra fan boy, more of a Ford guy myself which I say in this video having owned a Raptor for few years. But, I did like this truck.

[@richcreager7877]

Ill keep my 2021 Tundra "Nightshade" with Supercharger. $70,000 for a V6 Turdbowl No thanks

[@studsauce7803]

New generation has more horsepower and torque. Also higher towing capacity and payload. 10 speed transmission is smoother compared to the 6 speed with previous gen. If your into speed then the new beats the old again 0-60. Sorry 🤷‍♂️

[@richcreager7877]

@studsauce7803 You missed the part where I said mine was Supercharged 550 HP 550 ft lbs Torque IMAX isn't even close and I have had the opportunity to put a few of them in their place. I can tow just as much. I like the looks of the new Tundra, like the 6ft bed on Crew Max, and the 10 speed trans but it's a no go on a V6 Turdbowl. I'll have to wait it out see what the reliability is. I follow this guy waiting for him to post them vids he's broke down in shop lol. Might not see that cause lucky guy changes to different one seems like monthly lol.

[@studsauce7803]

Iforce max has more torque than your supercharger at 583. HP is pretty irrelevant since torque and transmission gearing is better and the HP is not that far off. Cant really knock turbos if yours isent naturally aspirated itself. I think you know as well as I do Toyota did their diligence and testing to ensure the engine holds up. Engineering is doing wonders with V6s now a days and manufacturers are going to them. I’ll take the 22 mpg combined with the new gen compared to my 14 with previous. Not saying the previous is a bad truck it’s just the new gen is better 🤷‍♂️ I had a 2018 platinum and bought my 2023 in January. The tech is better, the coil suspension rides better, it tows my camper way better, I get twice the gas mileage, and the new power train is quick and smooth.

[@an237251]

This guy doesn't know anything about the truck.. Spent more time talking about other trucks. Why even make a review

[@Driven-Productions]

So what was missing in your opinion in this 30 min review my man?
