New Toyota Tundra for sale Portsmouth

The 2018 Toyota Tundra Offers a Smooth Ride and Premium Performance

You're ready to buy your next truck. That can be an exciting position to be in. It can also be a daunting one. The marketplace is nothing if not rife with solid pickup trucks. Narrowing all of that variety down to just one model? That can be a tough proposition. That is, of course, unless you go truck shopping at Toyota of Portsmouth.

When you visit our dealership in Portsmouth, NH, you'll find a range of new Toyota vehicles waiting. These include the 2018 Toyota Tundra. A full-size truck with rugged abilities and an excellent service history, the Tundra offers enough to power to handle most any kind of job. That muscle is coupled to a driving experience that stands as one of the smoothest on the road. With two powerful engine options and Toyota's Safety Sense-P safety suite, you'll find a wealth of great options that provide comfort, performance, and peace of mind.

Standard Features Aimed at Giving You More

One common thing that many pickup trucks share is a humdrum base model. While most deliver a basic level of comfort and performance, you'll often have to invest in more expensive models to enjoy a well-equipped driving experience. The Toyota Tundra takes a different approach. Even if you just drive home in the basic SR trim, you'll get a superior suite of standard equipment.

What does that include? The standard Tundra comes with a V8 engine, a rearview camera, and a 6.1-inch touch-screen entertainment system. Bluetooth compatible and equipped with an assortment of USB and auxiliary inputs, it provides everything you need to enjoy your favorite media on the go. All Tundra's also come with Toyota's Safety Sense-P suite. That, on its own, is an impressive bargain.

Trim Levels Full of Valuable Upgrades

If you want more than the base model has to offer, the Toyota Tundra has a wide range of trim options beyond the Tundra SR. The SR5, Limited, and Platinum are crammed full of great features and technology. And if you want something really special? The 1794 Edition transforms the Tundra from a top-tier truck into an exceptional one. Here's a slice of what its higher trims have to offer:

• The Tundra SR5 replaces the 6.1-inch screen of the SR with an 7-inch infotainment system. It also comes storage compartments under its rear seats and a sliding rear-window.
• The Tundra Limited adds in a premium audio system and built-in navigation. You'll also get power-operated heated leather bucket seats, chrome mirror/door accents, and a power-operated rear sliding window. It finally adds 20-inch wheels for higher ground clearance.
• The Tundra Platinum offers heated/cooled front seating, a JBL premium audio system, and a moonroof. It also opens access to the TRD Off-Road Package, which can add in Bilstein shocks, all-terrain tires, and a front skid plate, among other perks.
• The Tundra 1794 Edition comes with many of the same features as the Platinum but also packs in a range of other valuable features like fog lights, HD radio, and power-folding mirrors. The 1794 Edition also offers unique styling and a solid off-road performance.

Interior Options and Performance Powertrains

In addition to its trim models, the Tundra also offers two different cabin configurations: the Double Cab and CrewMax. If you're driving in the Double Cab, you'll get seating for five. Crewmax models, meanwhile, bump the Tundra's seating up to six. No matter which version you drive you'll have plenty of room for passengers.

You'll also enjoy top-quality options for the engine under the Tundra's hood. Its standard option is a 4.6-liter V8. Rated for 310 horsepower and 327 pounds-feet of torque, it provides more than enough muscle to deliver the high performance that draws people to pickups in the first place.

Drivers looking for something a bit more robust, meanwhile, might prefer the Tundra's 5.7-liter V8 option. Bumping its performance numbers up to 381 horsepower and 401 pounds-feet torque, experts place its max towing capacity at 10,200 pounds. That's nothing to shrug at.

Toyota Safety Sense-P Packs in Peace of Mind

Receiving solid safety ratings from the IIHS and NHTSA, the Tundra's chassis is the sturdy and durable, just like you'd expect from a good full-size truck. The real centerpiece of the Tundra's safety package, however, is Toyota's Safety Sense-P package. Offered in the Tundra as standard equipment, this suite of active safety technology provides a wide range of tools designed to help you avoid accidents before they happen.

These include everything from the pre-collision system with pedestrian detection to radar-guided cruise control, lane departure alerts, and more. The usefulness of these features can't be overstated. Pickup trucks are some of the most powerful vehicles on the road. When you're behind the wheel of something like the Tundra, you want everything available to protect yourself and the other people around you.
