The Tundra TRD (Toyota Racing Development) Pro is Toyota’s answer to the mighty Ford F-150 Raptor. It is powered by a brute, no Prius bullshit here, 5.7 liter ‘iForce’ petrol V8 with an output of 381hp and 544nm. When that is not enough TRD also has a Supercharger Kit on offer, which brings power up to 504hp and 750nm. This red car in Beijing had the standard 381 horses. Should be enough do deal with the Great Wall, traffic jams, and then some.
