Toyota has taken its acclaimed i-FORCE engine to the next level with the i-FORCE MAX, a hybrid powertrain that delivers uncompromising performance and remarkable fuel efficiency. If you're looking for a capable pickup truck or SUV to tackle your toughest jobs while saving at the pump, the i-FORCE MAX is sure to impress. Let's take a closer look at this innovative engine technology and which Toyota models offer it.
What is the i-FORCE MAX Hybrid Powertrain?
The i-FORCE MAX takes Toyota's proven 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine and pairs it with an electric motor to generate an impressive 437 horsepower and 583 pound-feet of torque. That's a significant boost over the standard i-FORCE's output of 389 hp and 479 pound-feet of torque. The electric motor not only provides additional power but also improves efficiency by enabling the gas engine to run in its optimal range in Socorro more often.
With the i-FORCE MAX under the hood, you'll enjoy strong and smooth acceleration, whether merging onto I-10 in El Paso or passing slower traffic on Horizon Blvd in Horizon City. The hybrid system's instantaneous torque also comes in handy for towing, providing extra muscle to get heavy loads moving with confidence. In fact, Toyota Tundra models equipped with i-FORCE MAX can tow up to 11,450 pounds when properly equipped.
Toyota Models with i-FORCE MAX
Currently, you can get the i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain on the Toyota Tundra full-size pickup truck and the Toyota Sequoia large SUV. On the Tundra, i-FORCE MAX is available on Limited, Platinum, 1794, TRD Pro, and Capstone trims. It comes standard on TRD Pro and Capstone. For the Sequoia, i-FORCE MAX is standard on all trims, which include SR5, Limited, Platinum, TRD Pro, and Capstone.
