If Toyota wants its new Tundra full-size pickup to compete with trucks from Ford and Ram it'll need to have a significantly improved interior. A large central touchscreen is crucial, and Toyota is showing from this teaser photo of the new truck's interior that it's serious about making it stand out.
This teaser photo shows the top of the new Tundra's dash, and it seems to be the same TRD Pro model that Toyota revealed last week. Two JBL speakers are mounted inside the A-pillars, and the steering wheel has a red stripe atop the steering wheel, likely exclusive to the TRD Pro model. The main attraction is the large center-mounted touchscreen, which has Apple CarPlay displayed in this photo.

The current Tundra comes standard with a 7.0-inch touchscreen, though an 8.0-inch unit is available. The new trucks will be much larger so it can compete with the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500's available 12.0-inch screens. A smaller screen will likely be standard on the new Tundra.
Look for more information on the 2022 Tundra in the coming months, and Toyota could drop a few more bits of information before its official debut this year.
