What is the payload of the 2024 Tundra TRD off-road?

The payload capacity is typically around 1,800 pounds for many CrewMax configurations, but the exact figure varies by cab style, bed length, drivetrain, and added equipment.


Payload explained: what the figure means


Payload is the combined weight of passengers and cargo a vehicle can safely carry in a single load. It is distinct from towing capacity and is derived from the vehicle’s gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) minus its curb weight. For the 2024 Tundra TRD Off‑Road, this means the more equipment or heavier cabs you choose, the lower the available payload can be.


Config variations and how they affect payload


The 2024 Tundra TRD Off‑Road is offered in multiple configurations, including CrewMax and Double Cab options, with 5.5‑foot or 6.5‑foot beds, and with either two‑wheel drive (2WD) or four‑wheel drive (4WD). Each combination changes curb weight and sometimes GVWR, which in turn shifts the payload rating.


Guidance for planning loads


For buyers planning to carry people plus gear, always check the exact payload on the window sticker for the specific truck. Even within the same model year, a heavily equipped 4x4 CrewMax with a longer bed can have a different payload than a lighter 2WD CrewMax with a shorter bed.


How to verify payload on your Tundra


The most reliable source is the vehicle’s door jamb sticker or the official window sticker (Monroney label), which lists GVWR, curb weight, and payload. You can also consult Toyota’s official spec sheets or speak with a dealer to confirm the exact rating for your configuration.


Summary


In practical terms, the 2024 Tundra TRD Off‑Road generally offers a payload around 1,600–2,000 pounds, with 1,800 pounds being common for many CrewMax setups. Always verify the precise figure for your cab/bed/drivetrain configuration before loading heavy cargo or multiple passengers.
