Toyota Tundra data analysis

Best combined MPG: 22 MPG

Best combined figure for the Toyota Tundra is 22 MPG (2026, SIDI & PFI; Hybrid) — thirsty for its era, where a mid-size sedan returns 32 MPG on the same cycle. The weakest is 14 MPG (2018, Auto (S6), 8 cyl, 5.7 L). At 15,000 miles a year and $3.50/gal that is $2,386 against $3,750 — a $1,364 annual swing, enough to outweigh most price differences between two used examples. That puts the Toyota Tundra third of 6 standard pickup truckss we hold data for. The cohort median is 21.5 MPG, so this vehicle sits 0.5 MPG above the middle of the field. Next rung up is the GMC Canyon at 25 MPG, 3 MPG clear of this one. Immediately behind: the Nissan Frontier at 21 MPG. The 2026 model averages 19.9 MPG across 12 configurations. The efficiency peak is the 2026 car, not the newest one — usually a weight or all-wheel-drive change rather than a worse engine.

City versus highway

20 city / 24 highway on the 2026 Toyota Tundra. The 4 MPG gap is the normal gasoline pattern. Your mix moves the result by a few MPG, not by a category. Winter fuel blends and sub-freezing warm-up cost 10–20% on their own, so a cold-climate owner should read the city figure as the realistic ceiling. EPA's own annual cost estimate for the best configuration is $2,800. Tailpipe CO₂ is 407 g/mile, about 6.1 metric tons a year.

What drives the spread

77 EPA-tested configurations across 2015–2026. Drivetrain is the biggest lever: Rear-Wheel Drive, Part-time 4-Wheel Drive versions are certified separately and rarely land within 2 MPG of each other. 9 distinct engine descriptions appear in the record, which is why quoting one figure for the nameplate misleads. Fuel types on file: Regular, Premium, Gasoline or E85. Figures are EPA submissions filed per configuration, not marketing claims. A missing year means no filing, not a zero. Sources for these 77 rows: manufacturer filings, covering 12 model years.

How Toyota Tundra combined fuel economy varies

Across 77 configurations recorded for the 2015 through 2026 Toyota Tundra, combined fuel economy runs from 14 MPG to 22 MPG. The strongest figure belongs to the 2022 Toyota Tundra (Auto (S10), 6 cyl, 3.4 L) at 22 MPG, and the weakest to the 2021 car (Auto (S6), 8 cyl, 5.7 L) at 14 MPG — a spread of 57%. A gap that wide means the model year and configuration you buy matter more than the nameplate does: quoting a single number for the Toyota Tundra would be misleading.

What changed for 2026

Average combined fuel economy for the 2026 Toyota Tundra is 19.9 MPG, against 19.9 MPG for the 2025 car — it rose by 0.1 MPG. That is a real improvement, and it is the kind of change worth paying the newer-year premium for if this figure drives your decision.

Configurations behind these Toyota Tundra numbers

The 2015 through 2026 Toyota Tundra entries here cover the variants Auto (S10), 6 cyl, 3.4 L, Auto (S6), 8 cyl, 5.7 L and Auto (S6), 8 cyl, 4.6 L. 2024 is the busiest model year in the record with 13 separate measured configurations, which is why a single quoted combined fuel economy figure for that year is rarely the one that matches the car in front of you. Match the row to the exact drivetrain, body style and engine on the window sticker or VIN before relying on the number, and use the comparison links below to see how those same configurations line up against rival models.

Our Real-World Speed MPG Adjuster re-scales the Toyota Tundra EPA highway result with a quadratic drag term (mpg = hwy ÷ (1 + k·(v² − 60²)/60²), k = 0.55 for trucks, SUVs and vans, 0.42 for cars). Wind, roof racks, and a heavy right foot make it worse, never better.
