The Toyota Tundra pickup truck can hold between 26.4 and 38 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87. This truck can also run on FlexFuel, which is a type of ethanol-based gas known as E85. Higher-end vehicles that need premium fuel require an octane level of 97 or more. These types of vehicles typically have higher compression in their engine chambers and are often turbocharged. The Tundra, for its size and category, performs as expected and offers a combined fuel efficiency of 10-16 miles per gallon, 9-15 mpg in the city, and 12-19 mpg on the highway. The Tundra comes with either a 4.6-liter V8 or a 5.7-liter V8 engine, boasting 310 to 381 horsepower and a towing capacity ranging from 6,400 to 10,500 pounds.
The 2017 Toyota Tundra is compatible with either regular 87 octane unleaded gasoline or E85 Ethanol flex fuel. When choosing to use E85, ensure that it contains only E85 or a lower ethanol blend.
