What is MMC?

I am confused. I thought D-4D had to do with diesel applications and had nothing to do with D-4S?

Question: Since when did Toyota's stance on this https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.motortrend.com/news/toyotas-dynamic-force-engine-tech-will-spread-models/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwi83dfbw5_lAhWSvZ4KHROLB84QFjAMegQIBBAB&usg=AOvVaw2QQgs-ghPdamcar0BenhzT&ampcf=1 change? I am...

Lots of info here. So, just for clarification; when you say "this is definitely true", are you referring the the fact that the Tundra redesign will be a 2022 MY? Or about the 3.5L powertrain? Any new news on powertrains? V8s?

A lot of speculative articles recently about the Tundra and Land Cruiser dropping V8s for TTV6s. I admit, this engine will likely be an option, but have we all forgotten about the 2 larger displacement engines in the diagram? Those have to come in somewhere. Sure, we still have the Sequoia, but...

Okay, so D-4 is strictly direct injection and D-4S is direct and port injection, but how do we know which engines have the self cleaning tech? Or even which applications of the 2GR-FKS. I guess what I am getting at is, if Toyota has D-4S in an engine, they better have the self cleaning tech come...

Okay, so the 2GR-FKS in the Tacoma has the self cleaning tech... Do all versions/applications of this engine have the self cleaning tech? Like in the Camry? Also, what about other new engines in the line-up?

Awesome, thanks for clarifying! Great article, too.

Do other automakers use dual injection? I mean, what about Subaru and Mazda? I was thinking most DI engines were strictly DI and didn't have port injection at all... If that is the case, aren't most DI engines a "red flag" by your criteria?

I am probably going to get blasted for posting under the "wrong" thread, but what are the chances that the TNGA Tacoma and Hilux will essentially be the same vehicle? I mean it is "global" architecture. Also, what about the Tacoma and 4Runner? Any chance of them being closely related, including...

True, but Ford sells a lot more F-150 pickups than Toyota sells of Tundra pickups... If Toyota had the pickup market share that Ford has it would be much more feasible. Who knows, maybe the redesigned Tundra will help gain more market share.

Right, but when the next Tundra is revealed, they are probably going to call it the "All New 4th Generation Tundra" because Toyota calls the 2014 MY update a redesign... Even though it was just a refresh.

Just out of curiosity, isn't this the 4th gen Tundra, by TMC's definition? I thought they called the 2014 MY a redesign and claimed it to be gen 3?

On average, how much power/torque does adding making an engine Dynamic Force add? Based on a quick calculation,I am getting about an 11.5% increase, but I could totally be wrong. I got 14% for hp and 9% for torque.

My thoughts exactly. However, even with the addition of D-4S, they could still update the motor to include the widened angle of the intake and exhaust valves, making it a Dynamic Force engine. This would add even more power, torque and efficiency, right? That would give them a pretty competitive...

First of all, I highly doubt that a TT V6 will be the only engine option. There is no way Toyota would let themselves be the only truck maker in the US market without a V8. We are still waiting on two more bigger engines to be revealed. Mike Sweers has been pretty blunt about his support for V8s...

What is happening on October 2nd?

Right. Honestly, I am just super nervous about what their V8 plans are. I don't care about having the most ponies or pound feet, I just want something reliable. I love the 3UR-FE and am hoping they can improve on that without the need for forced induction.

But they will most likely release updated engines that aren't on the list, correct?

I believe the arrangement is by displacement. I read that the V35A-FTS is going in the Land Cruiser. If it is going in the Land Cruiser, that doesn't necessarily mean it is going in the Tundra, Sequoia and LX, does it? I can't imagine having a twin turbo V6 as the only engine option in those...
