In the world of full-size pickups, none has a better reputation for durability, longevity, reliability, and resale than the 2023 Toyota Tundra.
While it lacks the towing and varied bed and cab configurations of trucks like the Ford F-150, Ram 1500, and Chevrolet Silverado, the Tundra covers a lot of turf, offering features and abilities demanded by most half-ton pickup buyers. Like its competition, the Tundra wears many hats — basic utility truck, rugged off-road adventurer, and luxurious family hauler.
The Tundra’s standard twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 feels like a big V8 but returns fuel economy in the high teens and low 20s. However, unlike some competitors, the Tundra doesn’t offer additional engine options, such as diesel, V8, or EV, although a hybrid engine is offered in the Platinum and 1794 and exclusive to the off-road-ready Tundra TRD Pro and luxury Capstone trims (hybrid reviewed separately).

2023 Toyota Tundra SR: $37,865
The entry-level SR is a basic truck, short on frills but big on value. It comes standard with an i-Force 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 producing 348 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque. A 10-speed automatic transmission comes standard with rear-wheel drive (RWD). Part-time 4-wheel drive (4WD) is optional.
The SR’s horsepower and torque figures are lower than all the other trims with the same engine, which jump to 389 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. The difference results in slightly better fuel economy but significantly reduced towing. If you’re buying this truck for maximum hauling abilities, we suggest moving to the SR5 trim instead.
The max tow rating for the SR is 8,300 pounds versus 12,000 for a 4×2 SR5 Double Cab. However, the SR has one of the best payload figures of the Tundra trims, tied with the SR5 at 1,940 pounds.
Configurations for the SR include a Double Cab with a 6.5-foot or 8-foot bed and the CrewMax crew cab with a 5.5-foot bed.
The SR’s standard roster includes a black grille, 18-inch steel wheels, LED headlights, washer-linked variable wipers, heated power side mirrors, and keyless entry with proximity key fob and touch-to-unlock door handles.
An aluminum-reinforced bed includes a deck rail header, an easy-lower-and-lift tailgate, an LED trailer reverse-assist light, and a tailgate spoiler. A class-exclusive vertical power rear window that lowers into the cab wall comes standard on the CrewMax, while the Double Cab gets a center section horizontal power sliding window.
Moving to the cab, you’ll find 1-touch auto up/down power windows, power door locks, a push-button starter, LED map lights, an overhead console, and a tilt/telescoping steering wheel.
The SR features cloth upholstery, manually adjustable front seats, a 60/40-split folding rear seat with under-seat storage, and a 4.2-inch color multi-information display.
Amenities include single-zone air automatic climate control and an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen with 6-speaker audio. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, along with SiriusXM satellite radio and trial subscriptions to Toyota Safety Connect, Wi-Fi Connect, Service Connect, and Remote Connect apps.
In keeping with Toyota’s commitment to safety, the Tundra SR comes standard with Safety Sense 2.5, which includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, adaptive cruise control, and traffic sign recognition.
The Tundra SR also has a rear backup camera, hill-start assist, a tire pressure monitor, and eight airbags.
An available Tow Package adds a Class IV trailer hitch receiver and a 7-pin connector wiring harness.
With the $1,795 delivery charge, the 2023 Toyota Tundra SR 4×2 Double Cab costs $39,660. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment comes to about $748. See 2023 Toyota Tundra SR models for sale near you
