Fuel Economy on the 2024 Toyota Tundra Engines

The i-FORCE Twin-Turbo V6 engine

If you aren’t too persuaded to purchase an electrified vehicle yet, the i-FORCE Twin-Turbo V6 engine may be your option. This drivetrain gets an impressive 389 horsepower and 479 lb-ft torque. Trucks carry a lot of weight, so that decreases the fuel economy, however, the 2024 Toyota Tundra gasoline gets up to 17 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway, and 19 mpg combined. Not too bad for a full-sized truck we must say, but now let’s get into the hybrid engine option.

The i-FORCE MAX Twin-Turbo V6 Hybrid Engine

If you are ready to make the transition over to an electrified vehicle, a hybrid model is the perfect choice. The i-FORCE MAX Twin-Turbo hybrid engine is new to Toyota’s lineup with incredible power and improved fuel economy. It offers up to 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft torque with more power than the gasoline engine, this option steps it up. Now, let’s look into the fuel economy of the 2024 Toyota Tundra Hybrid. Expect it to get up to 18 mpg in the city, 20 mpg on the highway, and 19 mpg combined.

Why is the 2024 Toyota Tundra Hybrid engine so powerful?

You may be wondering what makes the hybrid engine more powerful than the gasoline engine. Well, that is all thanks to the Toyota Technology and engineering that’s infused into this mode to make the 2024 Toyota Tundra hybrid MPG even better. Toyota created a unique hybrid drivetrain than ever before in the Tundra, as well as the Sequoia and Tacoma. The Hybrid i-FORCE MAX engine combines a twin-turbo V6 and a motor generator with a clutch located within the bell housing between the engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission. The electric motor allows the power to be transferred with no stalling time on the 2024 Toyota Tundra hybrid MPG. 

What makes the 2024 Toyota Tundra Hybrid engine different from previous models?

That’s why you may see the extra boost in power vs the standard Toyota Hybrid System we are used to on the famous Toyota Prius, which uses regenerative braking to save your gas consumption. The standard Toyota hybrid system doesn’t have an emphasis on accelerating the power in its models. Now, let’s learn How to Improve Fuel Economy in a Truck.
