We're excited to share that Toyota’s Tundra full-size pick-up range is set to grow with the addition of the flagship Platinum grade, which is expected to arrive at CMI Toyota in May, offering a range of enhancements to its bold styling, occupant comfort and convenience features.
Priced from $172,990 plus on-road costs, the new flagship Platinum completes the Tundra range, joining the Limited grade which is available for sale from Toyota dealerships from $155,990 plus on-roads.(1)
The Tundra Platinum builds on the generous interior specification of the Tundra Limited, while adding unique exterior styling elements which further the full-size pick-up’s impressive on-road presence.
Toyota Australia Vice President Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations Sean Hanely said the new Tundra Platinum would provide an even more luxurious experience for Tundra customers.
“The Tundra set new benchmarks for Toyota when it launched last year, with its 4.5T towing capability, powerful twin-turbo i-FORCE MAX powertrain and the first factory-backed right-hand-drive conversion program with Walkinshaw Automotive Group,” Mr Hanley said.
“Bringing the new Tundra Platinum to market elevates the luxurious experience of our full-size pick-up, ensuring that customers are able to drive and tow over long distances in utmost comfort.”
Externally, the Tundra Platinum provides an even bolder, more distinctive aesthetic than its Limited sibling, with the new grade featuring chrome-plated mesh-style front grille and side door trim, black tailgate handles and window surrounds, and stealthy black 20-inch alloy wheels.
Both the Limited and Platinum are now offered with a powered tailgate, providing additional convenience for loading and unloading the cargo area.
The Platinum announces itself as the flagship of the Tundra range with its premium level of interior features including black and blue leather-accented upholstery with 10-way power adjustment for the front passenger seat and four-way power lumbar support for both front seats.
The luxurious front seats also offer a massaging function, while rear outboard passengers gain seat heating and ventilation. The steering wheel is also heated and provides powered memory tilt and telescopic adjustment.
A 10.9-inch colour head-up display provides additional convenience for the driver, along with rain-sensing wipers and LED bed lamps.
Interior ambience is heightened with the inclusion of a panoramic roof, stain chrome door handles, film trim, Platinum badging on the instrument panel and ambient interior lighting.
All Tundra grades are offered with a 14-inch multimedia system supporting wireless Apple CarPlay®(2) and wired Android Auto™(3), paired with a premium 12-speaker JBL®(4) audio system and 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster display.
Like the Tundra Limited, the Platinum is underpinned by Toyota’s highest-output powertrain offered to date in Australia – the 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 i-FORCE MAX which produces 290kW/649Nm from its petrol engine and 36kW/250Nm from the electric motor for a combined output of 326kW/790Nm.
The electric motor generator is placed between the engine and 10-speed automatic transmission in a parallel hybrid arrangement, enabling electric motor-only driving at low speeds, assistance for the engine, a stop-start system and energy regeneration from braking.
In two-wheel drive, power is fed to the rear wheels with a selectable four-wheel drive system and low-range gearing to help tackle low-traction terrain.
The Tundra offers a maximum braked towing capacity of 4,500kg(5), with two selectable towing modes which tailor powertrain performance to offer maximum stability and controllability when hauling.
The Tundra Platinum is available with the choice of seven exterior colours, consisting of six metallic hues – Eclipse Black, Graphite, Silver Storm, Jungle Khaki, Saturn Blue, and Feverish Red – along with Frosted White crystal pearl.(6)
