    The Tundra, part of Toyota's lineup since 2000, is a large pickup with seating up to 5. The Toyota Tundra has exceptional horsepower for its class, packing substantial oomph. With optional all-wheel drive (AWD), it handles mud, snow, and sand with ease. Toyota offers a 3-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty, and a 5-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty on its lineup.

    The 2022 Toyota Tundra is above average compared to all vehicles.

    Comparison to all vehicles.  This plot shows RSC safety scores on the horizontal axis vs. the number of vehicles with each safety score (depicted by bar height and percentages at the bottom). Colors reflect vehicle safety, ranging from red (not that safe) to green (safer). For reference, a score of 0 implies a 0.15% chance of driver death (13% chance of driver injury) over 15 years, and a score of 100 reflects a 0.016% chance (1.4% chance of driver injury). The 2022 Toyota Tundra has a score of 84, implying a 0.037% chance of driver death (3.3% chance of injury).

    We estimate that the 2022 Toyota Tundra has a vehicle lifetime fatality chance of 0.0368% and a vehicle lifetime injury chance of 4.2011%, meaning the average driver has a 0.0368% chance of dying in an accident if they drive the car under regular conditions for fifteen years, and a 4.2011% chance of being injured.

    Compared to the average vehicle, the 2022 Toyota Tundra is 21% less likely to result in a fatal accident. Compared to other pickups, the 2022 Toyota Tundra is 31% less likely to result in a fatal accident.

    Active safety features with Toyota's Safety Sense can substantially reduce the risks of harm to vehicle occupants by preventing severe accidents. An active safety system that is standard on the 2022 Toyota Tundra is Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD). Some safety features are optional on the 2022 Toyota Tundra--- although they add to the cost, one should consider the benefits of Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA) and Blind Spot Monitor.

    A safety feature that may make a vehicle safer, even if not at the forefront of technological advances, should still be considered. Side mirror turn signals are optional on the Toyota Tundra. They alert other vehicles of your intention to switch lanes, which allows the other vehicle's driver to prevent an impending accident with you.

    And it is less safe than many comparable cars.
