The 2022 Toyota Tundra Capstone Is A Lexus-Like Electrified Flagship Truck

#Toyota kept us waiting a long time for a brand-new #ToyotaTundra and to show consumers just how serious they are about going after the big three from Detroit, Toyota is introducing a flagship #TundraCapstone as the pinnacle in the #Tundra family. This luxurious #Capstone trim features semi-aniline leather from a Lexus LS, massive 22” wheels, the standard i-Force MAX hybrid powertrain, and lots of extra chrome on the grille and exterior. It starts at $73,530 for a truck that could almost wear a #Lexus badge.

Get ready for the most luxurious and expensive Tundra ever! This flagship Capstone trim starts at $73, 530 plus $1, 695 for destination. It comes standard with 4WD and the i-Force MAX hybrid powertrain which itself is an extra $3, 400, while 4WD also cost about $3, 000 on other Tundra trims. Fuel economy for the new hybrid powertrain is up to 20/24 MPG with 2WD, but this 4WD model is rated to get 19/22. Would you guys go for this instead of an F-150 Limited or GMC Sierra Denali?

I’ve always wondered why competitors haven’t imitated the roll down rear window, such a great feature to have

I just love how the tundra capstone included the 14 inch touchscreen and the ambient lighting

I was a sales manager at a Lexus store in the early oughts. Some local wag had bought a bunch of Lexus badges and rebadged his Tundra, which led to a lot of guys coming in to see the new Lexus pickup like the one they had seen around town. I also had people come in to see the "new" Lexus they had seen in the Tom Cruise movie "Minority Report." Had to inform them that car would be out in 2054!

3:06 I’ve never seen Ford offer a blackout package on their Platinum/Limited F150s. They offer trim levels where the grille and trim is black, but not a black out package. If anything Toyota is the one that offers that. The Toyota 4Runner Limited Nightshade comes to mind

Toyota Tundra Capstone, GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate, Ford F-150 Limited, Ram Laramie Longhorn. Top of the line luxury.

10:45 I really enjoy having an auto-dimming mirror, which this one is, it's great for today's bright LEDs just like this truck has. How does that camera/screen rearview mirror work at night though? Wouldn't the camera just show a big bright ball of light instead of individual headlights from vehicles behind you?

Love the new Tundra but these prices are getting ridiculous!

Wow a Toyota review that doesn’t have a negative tone

[SahZoom]

I understand why Toyota didn’t go crazy with all the extras (pro power, weird tailgate, etc…) with all the complications they could cause. Toyota, and especially the Tundra has the best reliability reputation in the industry, so it only makes sense that all the extra stuff didn’t make it through the design.

And to add further to the pro power thing, Tundras are typically not a fleet truck / work truck in the same way the F-150 or GM vehicles are. Tundras are mainly for personal use or long-range driving (hot shot drivers in the oil industry). How many construction companies have you seen with a fleet of Tundra work trucks? Not to mention, they got rid of the work truck trim for this generation.

Only thing that disappointed me with the capstone is that they didn’t go all the way with the satin metal look - I wish they made everything finished in that matte silver finish. It’s weird to have the satin trip on the doors, grille, and bumpers, but the mirror caps and door handles are chrome? Just match it for gods sake!

i agree, black out all the chrome and black rooftop 🔥🔥 beef up the tires a bit with black chrome rims

[mikeharris]

Toyota did a great job with both the Tundra and Sequoia inside and out👍

[vpattt]

If I were to choose, I might just take this amazing beast over the American trucks

I will still consider the Tundra Capstone or Premium still but...19/22 is extremely disappointing and the rear only adjustable suspension and the Capstone pricing. Yup I think I just talked myself out of the Capstone. How do you go from 18/23 nonhybrid to 19/22 hybrid? I really hope that's only for the capstone with those 22" wheels, but even then it doesn't make much sense. Something isn't right here.

$70, 000 man I respect anybody who can afford those monthly payments 💯

[dainyboy]
