    Inside the Toyota Sequoia

    Why the Sequoia is hybrid-only

    Toyota retired the 5.7L V8 after the 2022 model year and ships every Sequoia with the i-FORCE MAX 3.4L twin-turbo V6 hybrid powertrain shared with the Tundra. The hybrid system pairs the V6 with a single electric motor mounted between the engine and the 10-speed automatic, producing 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque — more than the outgoing V8 in both metrics. EPA combined fuel economy lands in the low-20s, a meaningful improvement over the V8 it replaces. Towing capacity tops out at 9,520 lb when properly equipped, on par with full-size body-on-frame three-row competitors.

    Choosing between SR5, Limited, Platinum, TRD Pro, and Capstone

    SR5 is the entry trim — cloth seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, and tri-zone climate, with the 4WD option available. Limited adds the 14-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, leather-trimmed seats, second-row captain's chairs (seven-passenger), heated and ventilated front seats, and a power-folding third row. Platinum layers in head-up display, panoramic camera, 14-speaker JBL audio, and adaptive variable suspension on 4WD models. TRD Pro is the off-road specialist: 2.5-inch FOX internal-bypass shocks, an electronically locking rear differential, 33-inch Falken Wildpeak A/T tires, a TRD-tuned skid plate, and unique exterior styling. Capstone is the luxury flagship — semi-aniline leather, real American Walnut wood trim, two-tone interior, and 22-inch chrome wheels.

    How it compares with the Grand Highlander and the Tundra

    The Sequoia is body-on-frame and shares its platform with the Tundra pickup, which is why it tows nearly twice what the unibody Grand Highlander manages (9,520 lb vs. 5,000 lb max). Cargo space behind the third row is 22.5 cubic feet, slightly more than the Grand Highlander's 20.6, and the Sequoia's third row will fit adults more comfortably than any other Toyota three-row. The trade-off is fuel economy and ride quality: the Sequoia drinks more gas in mixed driving and rides more like a truck. If towing capacity, off-road capability, or the TRD Pro's hardware matter to you, the Sequoia is the right call. If you prioritize fuel economy or daily-driver refinement, the Grand Highlander Hybrid is the better fit.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros
    • Class-leading 9,520-lb towing capacity (when properly equipped)
    • 437 hp / 583 lb-ft on every trim — the standard hybrid powertrain is the same from SR5 to Capstone

    • TRD Pro trim with FOX shocks, locking rear diff, and all-terrain tires for serious off-road duty
    • Spacious third row that adults can sit in for full drives
    • 14-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster standard on Limited and above
    • Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 standard across all trims
    Cons
    • Combined fuel economy in the low-20s trails three-row unibody rivals like the Grand Highlander Hybrid
    • Body-on-frame ride is firmer and trucker-feeling than three-row crossovers
    • Cargo space behind the third row is good but not class-leading
    • Higher entry price than the Grand Highlander, even before adding 4WD
    • TRD Pro's off-road hardware comes with on-road comfort trade-offs
