Toyota unveiled the exterior of the 2022 Tundra last week, and now we’re getting our first glimpse inside the cabin.
Unfortunately, there isn’t much to see as the company released a panoramic photo which largely shows the windshield.
However, a few things are visible including a widescreen infotainment system with a freestanding display. We can also see a perforated leather steering wheel with a red center stripe. Furthermore, the A-pillars are outfitted with grab handles and small speakers. Finally, there’s a new overhead console and a rearview mirror that appears to have HomeLink.

Toyota didn’t say much about the redesigned truck, but last week’s image revealed the rugged Tundra TRD Pro. It features a prominent mesh grille with “TOYOTA” lettering as well as marker lights and an auxiliary light bar. The truck also sports T-shaped headlights, pronounced fender flares and a stylish beltline. Rounding out the highlights are blacked out A-pillars, tubular rock rails and black TRD wheels with meaty tires.
The automaker has been tight-lipped on specifics, but officials have previously said the truck will come with two new engines including an entry-level unit that produces “substantially” more power and torque than the current 5.7-liter V8 which has 381 hp (284 kW / 386 PS) and 401 lb-ft (544 Nm) of torque. While nothing is official, the Land Cruiser’s new twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 would fit that bill as it develops 409 hp (305 kW / 415 PS) and 479 lb-ft (650 Nm) of torque.
The second powertrain is more mysterious, but it promises to ‘blow people away.’ It’s expected to be a hybrid or plug-in hybrid powertrain as Toyota recently confirmed plans to “bring electrification to its pickup truck lineup in the near future.”
