Filed under: Chicago Auto Show, Spy Photos, Truck, Toyota When Toyota first announced that it would be bringing the 2014 Tundra pickup to next month's Chicago Auto Show, we weren't quite sure if the truck would fall into the "all-new" or "refreshed" category. After seeing this latest set of spy shots, we're striking "all-new" from the record, but the enhancements do appear to be more than just a simple nip/tuck. While the overall shape and greenhouse haven't really changed, heavy cladding found on the front fascia suggests that a totally redesigned nose is in store, with a fully reworked grille flanked by new headlamps. Smaller styling details are hidden by the big panels of camouflage, but we anticipate a few minor tweaks to the rest of the pickup's design when all that black tape finally comes off. Mum's the word on powertrain enhancements (if any), as well as any changes that have been made to the chassis. But with the updated 2013 Ram 1500 already on the street, the recent unveiling of the updated 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, and a preview of what's to come from the likes of Ford, we certainly hope Toyota has injected enough new blood into its 2014 model year pickup to keep it competitive in this American-dominated segment. We'll know for sure come Chicago.Redesigned 2014 Toyota Tundra spied testing in Canada originally appeared on Autoblog on Tue, 29 Jan 2013 17:25:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Pablo gets over 25 MPG and has a 1 ton capacity. Can the new Tundra top that? Sure it can tow more, but will it? Do you want a truck or a mini-van?
Somebody should take the 5.7L motor out of a tundra with TRD supercharger and headers and put it in their mini
Exactly...my thought for the last ten years or so! The Tacoma now looks as big and puffy as any "full size" truck. The Tundra is ridiculously huge and puffed-out, and just has nothing at all about it that says "Toyota Truck" to me. Whatever happened to the concept of the well-made small pickup? It's what made Toyota famous. Why abandon it totally? To call the Tacoma a "small" truck is ridiculous anymore!
The new tacomas make the old t100 look small .....Bring back the t100 make it a short bed standard cab v8 with a six speed
