2015 Toyota Tundra Review
Posted on October 29, 2014
With 10 models and 25 packages available to choose from, the 2015 Toyota Tundra easily meets your needs, whatever they are. The Tundra's bold, chiseled exterior is complemented by a completely refined and modern interior. Standard features include Toyota's 6.1" display audio system with touchscreen and backup camera. It is available in the following trim models: 4x2 Regular Cab SR Long Bed, 4x4 Regular Cab SR Long Bed, 4x2 Double Cab SR5 4.6L, 4x4 Double Cab SR 4.6L, 4x4 Double Cab SR 5.7L, 4x4 SR5 Double Cab Long Bed 5.7L, 4x4 Limited 5.7L, 4x4 CrewMax SR5 5.7L, 4x4 CrewMax Limited 5.7L, 4x4 CrewMax Platinum 5.7L and 4x4 CrewMax Platinum 5.7L 1794 Edition.
Rugged, Bold Styling
Loading and unloading your cargo bed couldn't be easier, thanks to the hydraulic assistance of the 2015 Toyota Tundra's Easy Lower and Lift Tailgate. It opens and closes with minimal effort. Plus, the entire tailgate is easily removed, or it can be locked to secure your cargo if you add a tonneau cover or shell to your Tundra. Keep your cargo from shifting with the 2015 Toyota Tundra's available bed rail system, which includes 4 tie-down cleats, constructed of sturdy die-cast aluminum rated at 100kg each. Each cleat is fully-adjustable and can slide along the bed rails. The cleats are anchored to help ensure the security of the load. Available on the 2015 Toyota Tundra CrewMax Platinum and 1794 Edition, LED daytime running lamps will always illuminate the road and alert other drivers to your presence. You can also opt for manual-levelling headlamps. When towing or hauling, the front of the vehicle may be tilted upwards, causing the headlamp beam to be raised. Now, you can lower the headlamps to one of five selectable settings if necessary.
The 2015 Toyota Tundra was built to be ergonomic for all drivers, including workers. Dials are large enough to be operated with work gloves on. The instrument panel features meters with 3D metallic rings and individual gauges grouped in a clear, easy-to-see design with a centre-mounted 3.5-inch TFT Multi-Information Display Screen. The 60/40-split rear design flips up with one hand in both the 2015 Toyota Tundra Double Cab and CrewMax models, giving you a vast amount of cargo capacity. An under seat storage tray in the DoubleCab, a huge centre console box with 12V power and room for your laptop, a large locking glove box, and an overhead console provides you with even more storage space. The 2015 Toyota Tundra comes equipped with AM/FM radio, CD, MP3/WMA capability, USB and auxiliary input, and voice recognition. The audio system also includes standard Bluetooth compatibility and an integrated backup camera. SR models come equipped with a 6.1-inch display, while the SR5, Limited and Platinum models feature a 7-inch display with integrated SiriusXM satellite radio. The CrewMax Platinum adds premium JBL Audio while available TRD Offroad Packages offer the Bongiovi Acoustics Digital Power Station.
