Toyota Planning Massive Changes to Its Trucks and SUVs, Report Claims

"It seems Toyota may be planning on implementing some awfully big changes to some of its best-known models. Motor 1 recently spoke with an alleged Toyota insider, who offered some insight on company planning for future models of some of our favorite Toyota vehicles — including, most interestingly, new versions of the Land Cruiser and the Tundra pickup."

This is awesome news. I've been looking at possibly getting a new Tundra soon, so I might as well wait for the new model to come out. A twin-turbo V-6 Hybrid would be interesting to see in a full size truck.

 

Maybe people can afford land cruisers then

 

More likely to see AWD in trucks than you are to see turbos.

Seeing that Subaru is now 20% owned by Toyota.

 

It would be the Hybrid combination that would be the most interesting to me. With the price of gas here in Canada not going anywhere but up, any increase in fuel economy would be welcomed.

 

Having an electric motor id imagine it would be more responsive, to an already touchy truck. Personally, it would make it worth checking out over fuel deactivation stuff
