Dublin Toyota Presents the 2026 Toyota Tundra

The 2026 Toyota Tundra is back and bolder than ever, and Dublin Toyota is here to help you discover why this full-size pickup continues to lead its class. Combining rugged capability with modern innovation, the 2026 Toyota Tundra offers a compelling mix of strength, efficiency, and comfort that sets it apart on the road or off. The 2026 Toyota Tundra offers two standout powertrains: the i-FORCE MAX hybrid, delivering excellent fuel efficiency with strong torque, and Toyota’s twin-turbo V6 gas engine for drivers who want uncompromising performance. This year’s 2026 Toyota Tundra delivers serious capability with a max towing capacity of up to 12,000 pounds when properly equipped, reinforced by a multi-link rear suspension for smoother rides under heavy loads. Exterior upgrades include power-extending and folding tow mirrors, fresh exterior and interior color options, and available TRD off-road enhancements perfect for weekend adventures beyond Livermore and Hayward. Inside, the cabin impresses with premium materials, expansive digital displays, and Toyota’s Safety Sense suite, giving you confidence on every drive. With a lineup that spans the practical SR and SR5, the off-road-ready TRD Pro, the premium 1794 Edition, the exclusive 1974 Edition, and the luxurious Capstone, the 2026 Toyota Tundra offers something for every lifestyle, taste, and price point. Dublin Toyota is ready to guide drivers in Walnut Creek, and Pleasanton through all the features, trim details, and engine options that make this truck a standout in its segment.

Engine Specs and Fuel Efficiency

The 2026 Toyota Tundra sets a new standard for full-size truck performance, combining raw power with impressive efficiency. Leading the lineup is the available i-FORCE MAX hybrid, which pairs a twin-turbo V6 gas engine with an advanced electric motor for strong, smooth torque and enhanced fuel economy. Refined for 2026, this system delivers an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, while producing 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque—enough muscle to tow up to 12,000 pounds and haul a maximum payload of roughly 1,940 pounds when properly equipped. For traditional gas power, the standard twin-turbo V6 remains a standout, offering 389 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque to handle worksite tasks or weekend adventures with ease. Both engines come paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, now tuned for faster, smoother shifts that enhance acceleration and responsiveness. Whether navigating city streets in Dublin, towing gear near Livermore, or tackling weekend trips around Pleasanton, the 2026 Toyota Tundra delivers a balanced blend of strength, efficiency, and confidence for every driver.

Interior Highlights

The 2026 Toyota Tundra elevates the in-cabin experience by combining rugged durability with refined comfort. Even entry-level trims feature soft-touch surfaces, logically placed controls, and thoughtful storage solutions, making every drive easier and more enjoyable. Moving up the lineup, premium trims showcase leather upholstery, real wood accents, and ambient interior lighting that add sophistication without sacrificing toughness.

The CrewMax’s full-size rear doors and expansive back seat make it an ideal choice for families, weekend getaways, or work crews. Flexible bed options—5.5-foot, 6.5-foot, and 8.1-foot lengths—ensure there’s plenty of space for tools, gear, or cargo for your next adventure. Tech features continue to impress, starting with a standard 8-inch touchscreen that includes wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and integrated navigation.

The 2026 Toyota Tundra is available in a versatile seven-trim lineup: SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, TRD Pro, and Capstone. Most trims offer your choice of Double Cab or CrewMax configurations, with lower trims providing three bed lengths, while upper trims feature the spacious CrewMax exclusively.

The powerful i-FORCE MAX hybrid is optional on the Limited and Platinum, and standard on the TRD Pro and Capstone, giving drivers from Dublin, Livermore, and Pleasanton access to a perfect balance of efficiency and muscle. Starting with the SR, this dependable workhorse includes an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED headlights, a composite bed, durable cloth seating, and multiple USB-C charging ports.
