The TRD Pro series has been around for a couple of years, and if the 2017 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro CrewMax is to be taken into account, this series is here to stay. Unlike its Tacoma and 4Runner counterparts, this time it is Tundra’s turn to shine. Find out just what we mean by that.
Release Date
The release date for the 2017 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro CrewMax is still undetermined, but it should reach your nearest showroom by the end of 2017.
2017 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro CrewMax Price
There is still no word on the official price tag for the price of the Toyota Tundra TRD Pro CrewMax for this model, but since we have previous ones to go for, we can still hazard a guess.
The base model should go for roughly $36,000 which isn’t that much to say the least, but the price will go up as additional equipment and other costs keep mounting, so make sure you take this into account when you go shopping.
Exterior
The 2017 Toyota Tundra TRD is going to feature several additions that should get it above and beyond your regular truck. The slightly old-fashioned “TOYOTA” grille can also be found on other models, so it is the new LED fog lights that will help you differentiate between the models on your own.
The scoop on the hood gives it a more muscular appearance but otherwise does little to improve driving specs. In the rear, the first thing you’ll spot is the matching badge on the front doors and the exhaust. Oh, and the tow hook.
Interior of Toyota Tundra TRD Pro
Luckily or not, Toyota was not facing a difficult task when it comes to the interior if the 2017 Tundra TRD. This is mostly because the older versions have pretty much covered that part and received numerous upgrades in terms of materials and gadgets alike.
For example, there is the Entune infotainment system complete with navigation, the signature App suite and connectivity includes USB ports, Bluetooth and WiFi. Even the audio system is top-notch.
We could not help but notice the new floor mats and of course the TRD logo that was left at all the prominent places, in case you forget what you are driving.
Seats are covered in fine leather, there is a blind spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert in case someone pops up in your rear and a 4.2-inch TFT display with all the relevant information regarding the vehicle. There is even the tilt gauge in case you decide to take your Tundra off-road.
Engine
The 2017 Toyota Tundra TRD pro CrewMax packs one mean engine under its hood. It is the 3.5 L V-6 with 278 hp @ 6,000 rpm as well as 265 lb-ft of torque @ 4,600 rpm.
As for the transmission, you get to choose between a 6-speed manual or the automatic transmission with the same number of speeds.You can choose front or all-wheel drive, as you see fit – i.e. in accordance with your taste and finances.
