First released for the new millennium with the 2000 model year, the Toyota Tundra is a remarkable full-size pickup that has made it clear Toyota knows its trucks. Year after year, the Tundra has proven itself a powerful and capable option, improving with each new version as it offers a wide range of impressive features. For those looking to experience the Tundra in person, you can find its extensive lineup here at Toyota of Hopkinsville, your premier Toyota dealer. That being said, you'll find seven distinct grades available for the Tundra right now, which gives you the freedom to get exactly what you want, but narrowing down your options can be tricky. So, let's take a closer look at these seven versions of the 2024 Toyota Tundra and help you decide which one's right for you.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra SR
Kicking things off, we have the SR grade, which is the starting model for the 2024 Tundra and the perfect choice if you're looking for the standard features. It's powered by a 3.4L i-FORCE twin-turbo V6 engine that provides 358 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque, which is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission; different engines are offered on some other grades, but they all feature this same transmission. You get standard rear-wheel drive (RWD) on this model, the basic double-wishbone suspension, and 18-inch wheels wrapped in all-season tires. With its standard engine, the SR can handle up to 8,300 lbs of towing and 1,940 lbs of payload.
The Tundra SR is a joy to drive with standard features that include a Smart Key System with push button start, remote keyless entry, and a tailgate release function—all of this makes it easy to get going in the morning. You get standard fabric seating inside the SR, which is comfortable and easy to keep clean, along with automatic climate control and more. An eight-inch Toyota Multimedia screen with a six-speaker sound system is standard, paired with a 4.2-inch color Multi-Information Display for greater functionality. Overall, this is the perfect place to start, and you get terrific features, though plenty of upgrades are available.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra SR5
Moving up to the SR5 gets you a number of enhancements that you won't find on the standard model, starting with a more powerful engine tuned to deliver 389 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque, which is a notable boost from the standard powertrain. This model also comes with a Class-IV towing hitch receiver and wiring harness standard, which is available for the SR, and with its increased power, it can haul up to 12,000 lbs when towing. Available TRD Off-Road and TRD Sport packages let you add some off-road features, though the entire TRD Pro grade can be a better choice if you're dedicated to hitting the trail with some heavy-duty power. Inside the SR5, you'll find many of the same standard features as the SR, though available upgrades like dual-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a 14-inch Toyota Multimedia display are available here while not offered on the starting grade.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra Limited
If you like the performance of the SR5 and its enhanced engine but want to upgrade features inside your truck, then the Limited is one to check out. This grade has the same engine and performance as the SR5 but features enhancements like 20-inch wheels and heated outside mirrors with turn signals built into them. Inside the Limited, you'll find many of the features on the SR and SR5 that were available upgrades have been made standard, such as more soft-touch materials throughout, a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel and leather-wrapped shift knob, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The Limited features SofTex-trimmed seating with eight-way power front seats that are heated and ventilated; you also get a gorgeous 14-inch Toyota Multimedia screen paired with a 12.3-inch digital meter and gauge display, giving you the aura of a high-tech, luxury model, and we're just getting started.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra Platinum
Next up, we have the Platinum grade, which further enhances your driving experience with a number of upgrades like premium LED exterior lighting, including sequential turn signals and automatic leveling adjustment to improve your visibility at night. Inside, the Platinum model features enhancements, including a standard power tilt/slide panoramic roof, interior ambient lighting, leather-trimmed seats with 10-way power front seats, and heated and ventilated front and rear seating. Looking within the dashboard, the Premium includes a standard Qi-compatible wireless charging pad and a digital display auto-dimming rearview mirror, and you get a 12-speaker JBL Premium sound system to ensure you have a great time whenever you hit the road.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition
As an exclusive limited edition of the 2024 Toyota Tundra with only 1500 units made, you won't find many of these just lying around. However, the 1794 Edition builds on what you find in the Platinum grade with a unique American Western vibe, like a Rich Cream or Saddle Brown interior with American walnut wood-grain trim. This ultra-premium interior features gorgeous details developed in collaboration with the Saddleback Leather Company, creating an incredible experience that celebrates the legacy of Texas and the Tundra. You'll even find an upgraded suspension with FOX Internal Bypass shocks and other enhanced performance-focused features in this beautiful tribute to the Tundra's wild history.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro
If you're interested in going off-road, the TRD Pro must be the Toyota Tundra you check out. This beast features an i-FORCE MAX V6 hybrid engine that delivers 437 hp and a fantastic 583 lb-ft of torque. You get four-wheel drive (4WD) with an electronically controlled locking rear differential with this grade, rather than RWD, plus an off-road suspension with a 1.1-inch lift and 2.5-inch FOX Internal Bypass shocks for added stability and comfort when conquering a difficult trail. The TRD Pro comes with Xply Armor high-strength underbody covers, an aluminum front skid plate to protect your truck, and Multi-Terrain Select, Downhill Assist Control, and Crawl Control to help maneuver while off-road. You even get Falken WILDPEAK all-terrain tires to take you further, plus many of the same fantastic interior features in the Platinum, though unique TRD Pro details can be found throughout.
The 2024 Toyota Tundra Capstone
Finally, we come to the Capstone, which, as the name suggests, is the peak of the design and features of this remarkable truck. It features the same high-torque hybrid engine as the TRD Pro and 4WD, though it lacks the off-road focus of the TRD Pro, exchanging it for the highest luxury achievable on a pickup. You're looking at enhancements like the massive 22-inch chrome wheels, power running boards, and BedStep that make accessing your truck bed effortless. Inside the Capstone is an incredibly luxurious and sophisticated cab featuring a distinct dark American walnut wood-grain trim with a backlit "CAPSTONE" instrument panel badge and metal speaker grilles. A 10-inch color head-up display is standard in the Capstone model, along with semi-aniline leather-trimmed seating with gorgeous contrast stitching, including 10-way power front seats with four-way lumbar. Comfort, technology, and sophistication come together beautifully in this pinnacle grade.
Go Further With the Toyota Tundra
As you can see, the 2024 Tundra gives you seven fantastic options for your grade, each offering its own unique flavor of Toyota excellence. Your choice should ultimately be guided by what you're looking for in your next truck. If you want standard features for the most reasonable cost, then the SR is the way to go; the SR5 and Limited build on that with greater upgrades and access to better available features, while the Platinum is the perfect choice if you want outstanding performance and stunning features inside and out without going all-in on a Capstone. As you might expect, the TRD Pro is ideal if you're looking for a powerful full-size truck to take off-road, while the Capstone should be at the top of your list if you want the best of the best, the ultimate expression of rugged performance and gorgeous luxury. No matter what you're looking for in your next truck, Toyota has you covered with a Tundra that perfectly meets your needs.
