Toyota Tundra Tow Package & Engine Specs

A great towing capacity is only possible with a powerful engine, and the 2022 Tundra more than delivers. Every Tundra comes standard with a i-FORCE 5.7L V8 engine,delivering 381 hp and 401 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The Tundra’s towing capacity is complemented by the Toyota Tundra tow package, designed to make hauling cargo as smooth and stress-free a process as possible. You’ll find features like a TripleTech exterior frame, an integrated trailer hitch receiver, and outboard-mounted shocks, as well as:

• TOW/HAUL Mode and 4-/7-Pin Connector: The 4-/7-pin connector automatically increases the Tundra’s throttle response as needed and holds lower gears for longer, making it easy to haul larger pieces of cargo.
• Integrated Trailer Brake Controller/Trailer-Sway Control: These helpful systems allow you to control the amount of trailer braking and apply the brakes if any trailer sway is detected.
• Available Tundra Tow Mirrors: With these available mirrors, you’ll have additional visibility so you can keep watch over the cargo you’re towing.
