Over the last few years, Toyota has been slowly but surely escalating the off-road capabilities it offers with its trucks. More Toyota Racing Development parts for TRD Pro and TRD Off-Road models, and then the Tacoma Trailhunter for overlanders. Now the big T might finally be getting ready for its Tundra to go after Ford's Raptor and Ram's TRX pickups. At least Toyota has a name that could fit. The company just got a trademark for the name "TRD Hammer." Would You Drive A TRD Hammer? Toyota Toyota filed a trademark application for the name earlier this month, and a tip of our hats to The Drive for finding it. There isn't much in the way of information in that trademark application. Sometimes applications come with logos or special fonts, but this one is specific to the name.In February, Toyota sent out a survey to some owners, asking them to rank a handful of off-road names. The list was posted on Tundras.com, and it included options like the TRD Baja, TRD Iron, TRD Bizurk, and TRD Quake. Hammer was one of the choices, and this filing makes it clear that TRD Hammer was the winner. No, we're not sure what "Bizurk" means either, other than a poor misspelling of berserk.Before you smirk too loudly at the name TRD Hammer (if you don't get the joke, rear TRD as a word and not three individual letters), Toyota's survey also described a little bit about what the truck would be. It said "This high-performance truck package is designed for off-road enthusiasts, featuring an engineered long-travel suspension and 37-inch all-terrain tires. With the truck’s unique wide fenders, high-clearance bumpers, and a powerful engine, it achieves exceptional off-road capability and performance." Serious business, that. Not Toyota's First 37-inch Rodeo Toyota Toyota has done a Tundra with 37s before, as a concept vehicle it built for the SEMA show in 2021. That one was called the TRD Desert Chase Tundra, and like the name suggests, it was meant to be an off-road support vehicle.It came with a very long-travel suspension that – and this is important – used all of the Tundra's factory suspension mounting points. That's the type of detail that makes it possible to bring something from dream to dealership.The Desert Chase Tundra also had those 37-inch General Grabber tires and two spares mounted in the bed. Traction boards, off-road jack, fuel and water cans, and enough lights to make any desert night look like Vegas finished off the truck.Toyota Toyota's existing king of the TRDs is the Tundra TRD Pro. It comes with a special TRD suspension that includes a 1.1-inch front lift, Fox 2.5-inch internal bypass shocks with remote reservoirs, special control arms, and TRD sway bars.For 2026, Toyota started offering a three-inch lift kit for the Tundra, though it is only available on the SR5-trim truck as part of the TRD Rally package. That lift shows Toyota is willing to push the Tundra further than it has so far.If Toyota wants to call it the Hammer, though, it's going to need something more under the hood. We're going to assume the name refers to the King of the Hammers, a hardcore off-road race held annually in California's Johnson Valley.Toyota's i-Force Max hybrid with a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 makes 437 horsepower and 583 pound-feet of torque. It's not exactly up to the 777 hp of Ram's returning TRX (or even the 540 hp of the RHO) or the 720 hp of an F-150 Raptor R.Trademark filings do not guarantee the use of such nomenclature in future vehicles and are often used exclusively as a means of protecting intellectual property. Such a filing cannot be construed as confirmation of a production-bound application.
