I think they have the competition beat. While not in the market for a beast this big (along with anyone else in the US at this point in time) I think they do have all the competition beat.
How did you come to that conclusion. It was just introduced to the public. None of the mags have previewed it yet, let alone test drive it or put it in a comparo. Do you think that it has the competition beat based off the pics and the press release?
Now is the Sequoia bigger than the Land Cruiser or are they same size? How many SUV's does Toyota have?
Let's see Rav4, 4Runner, FJCruiser, Land Cruiser, and Sequoia. That's a lot of SUV's, sure beats Honda, who only has 3 SUV's, Pilot, CR-V, and Element.
Sequoia is their biggest. Only comes with a v8.
I have an 03 4runner and love it to death, toyota makes some mean SUV's
That new seq body style looks too much like a nissan armada though.

Yeah, a little early to say...but it goes above and beyond what any other large SUV offers just in terms of features. And in typical Toyota style, it appears the Sequoia has an interior that will blow the domestics away.
Too all the idiots saying "just get a mini van instead"
Guess what, millions of people don't want to drive a minivan. They need the space and the don't mind the truck like handling or poor gas mileage. Either way, it's their choice.
If you're bitching just to be on the band wagon, shut the hell up.
If you're bitching because it's excessive, so is your new 335i. Go get a Honda civic instead. According to you, it servers the same purpose.

I think the new Sequoia is nice but I would have to drive one before I would rank it at the top. The old model was as cheap as it gets and Toyota is still pretty damn good at offering up some cheap parts for the interior.
Maybe I am a little biased though. I have had 3 Tahoes/Yukons and have NEVER, not once had a problem with any of the 3. I can't say the same for my old CL-S, C32, and 328is. If there is one that thing that GM does right it has to be building trucks/suvs.
Besides mormons...who has a household of 7?!?!?!?!
...and even if there are 7 peeps in the household...get a minivan.
I have 2 kids and thinking about another and my sister in law and her 2 kids live with us two. Good arangement, she takes care of the kids while my wife in grad school and since all are in school except one thats home all day she has enough time take care of the house and cook etc.
One thing you will find when you have kids is that it isn't always just your family thats going somewhere. Many times you are picking up friends and taking them too. Throw in sports equiptment etc. and the space gets cramped real quick. Add on top of that bulky car seats, bulky strollers, and the prerequiste he(she) is touching me arguments and the space quickly becomes an issue.
We also honestly put the space to use. It is vary rarely that it would be just one person in the car. My wife and I both have smaller cars to commute in and the SUV is for driving a lot of people around in. My sister in law doesn't drive much but when she does all the kids like to go with her. Living in Texas we also road trip a lot with family and friends in Dallas, Austin, College Station, Houston and San Antonio. My mother and father inlaw are always around too so it really helps to have space for them so we don't have to two cars here and there.
Another big concern of mine is the Houston weather (we are moving back there when the wife is done with grad school). When it rains there it pours and I found myself stranded in my old CL way to many times. For piece of mind I would rather have a car that can wade through flooded streets easily.
A minivan would fulfill some of my family needs, but a big ass SUV would be the optimum choice. An econoline may be a necessity at some point, but I have never looked into them, an honestly I have heard of two many fatal accidents involving 15 passenger vans so i am not sure how I feel about them anyway.

Good post Ash. Some folks don't understand that the need is there sometimes, at the same time some people really do drive SUVs unnecessarily. I have a coworker and some friends that are single males driving Expeditions. It just makes no sense. On the same accord this being Texas everyone drives a truck. Even an F150 is in the same realm mpg wise as an SUV. Many times they just aren't necessary.

This is very true. I traded my CL in for a Mountaineer and have had 2 probles with it in 84K miles while I had my CL in the shop at least once every 15K miles for something. It was rediculous. If they didn't have loaners I would have been pissed.
My thinking that the Sequoia will be a winner is based on my rides in a coworkers Tundra. They are very nice inside and I am sure the Sequoia will be exactly the same.

I wouldn't say too many, they all fulfill different needs. Some are SUVs while others are crossovers and the FJ fulfills it's own little niche. I still don't quite
understand the difference/need between the Land Cruiser and Sequoia though...
The burnt orange color of the interior is HOT, IMO
Agreed. I've always loved that leather color in the interior of cars. I loved it in the M35/45 (they stopped offering it for the '08 year), and I love it in the Acadia. The interior looks great.

Back on topic, I do not like that grill nor the interior trim.

CHICAGO (AFP) – Embattled Japanese automaker Toyota announced the recall Wednesday of 50,000 Sequoia sport utility vehicles in the United States to fix problems with stability control.
This latest recall comes as the auto giant is looking to restore its battered reputation after recalling around 10 million vehicles worldwide, mostly for problems with sudden acceleration which have been blamed for 58 deaths in the United States.
Last week the company agreed to pay a 16.4-million-dollar fine, the largest ever for an automaker in the United States, for hiding the deadly accelerator pedal defects for at least four months.
The recall crisis triggered a ratings downgrade by Moody's over concerns that product quality issues and the cost of litigation will dent Toyota's future profitability.
However, Toyota said Monday that global sales surged 26.3 percent in March to 876,126 vehicles in March, from 693,759 a year earlier.
Toyota said the latest recall, which affected early 2003 model-year Toyota Sequoia vehicles, would allow it to upgrade the programming in the vehicle stability control (VSC) system.
"The VSC system can help control a loss of traction in turns as a result of front or rear tire slippage during cornering," Toyota said in a statement.
"In vehicles without the upgrade, the VSC system could, in limited situations, activate at low speed (approximately 9 miles per hour) for a few seconds after acceleration from a stopped position and, as a result, the vehicle may not accelerate as quickly as the driver expects."
Toyota said there were no accidents or injuries associated with the defect.
Toyota, which faced intense criticism for its handling of defects, said it published a "technical service bulletin" after it discovered the defect in the fall of 2003.
The automaker said it had already repaired about half of the affected vehicles but was issuing a voluntary recall "to ensure that as many 2003 Sequoias as possible are serviced to the full satisfaction of our customers."
"Toyota is committed to investigating customer complaints more aggressively and to responding quickly to issues we identify in our vehicles," said Steve St. Angelo, Toyota's chief quality officer for North America.
Customers who had paid to replace the skid control engine control unit can apply for a refund, Toyota said.
<SMALL>2010 Toyota Sequoia – Click above for high-res image gallery</SMALL>
At it's peak in 2002, Toyota was selling over 70,000 Sequoias. Last year, that number dropped to below 20,000 units. So it comes as little surprise that ToMoCo will be nixing its Tundra-based SUV at the end of the current model's lifecycle.
A source speaking with PickupTrucks.com confirmed that the Sequoia won't live on, partially due to slow sales, but surely in part to get Toyota's CAFE ratings in check before the new rules hit in 2015. But all's not lost for the automaker's body-on-frame offerings.
A redesigned Tundra is set to arrive in 2014, just in time for Ford, General Motors and Nissan's newest half-ton pickups. Although sales of the Tundra haven't lived up to Toyota's lofty expectations, it's obvious the automaker feels the need to compete in the segment, and a refreshed model should help sales, despite the market's less-than-enthusiastic reception of Toyota's largest pickup.
Laws can be changed Biker. We just need to get rid of the idiots in congress and the white house...
The best case scenario would be a new administration and Congress in 2013 - you think their priority at that time would be to roll back the current EPA rules? And it might be too late by then - all the makers will probably have their plans for FY2016 in place.
Toyota denies any reports of the discontinuation of the Sequoia. For obvious competitive reasons, Toyota does not discuss future product plans. Sequoia continues to be a profitable, high-quality vehicle for Toyota and several years remain in the life of the current generation. Our focus remains on building our vehicles, including the Sequoia, with the highest possible quality.
At this point, the Toyota Sequoia seems about as old as the trees it's named after. But part of that was because it was based on the previous-generation Tundra, which was also really darn old. But there's a new version of the truck, now, so it's not that surprising the company is teasing the new SUV, too.
Toyota didn't quite come out and say that explicitly, but there are some clear hints. The press release had the headline "The Next Big Thing from Toyota," emphasis ours. And most clear was the following sentence revealed after playing with the exposure of the teaser: "The forest, and its trees, almost in view."
We expect the Sequoia will continue to be based on the Tundra, especially as production is moving to the Tundra's San Antonio plant. That means it will still be body-on-frame construction, and under the hood will likely be the twin-turbo V6s from the truck, including the hybrid. Unlike the truck, the Sequoia will probably continue to use independent rear suspension, especially since its closest competitors, the Ford Expedition, Chevy Tahoe and Jeep Wagoneer, have all gone to independent rear suspension. Toyota didn't give a reveal date, but we should see the Sequoia shown sometime this year.
The third-generation Toyota Sequoia will debut even sooner than expected. The unveiling of the big SUV will be Thursday, January 25, at 9:30 PM EST. The brand also launched a promo site for the model and released a new teaser image of the model.
The photo shows the lower portion of the Sequoia's hatchback and a little of the rear bumper. The only notable bits of the design that are visible are the metallic finish for the handle and horizontally oriented taillights. Also, there is "SEQUOIA" lettering.
The earlier teaser showed the vehicle's rear pillar. It has sharp lines. The edge of the side glass has an upturned kink, and there's a little bit of a resemblance to the new Land Cruiser.
Toyota's promo site for the Sequoia has three boxes with "Coming Soon" in them, which suggests at least a trio of additional teasers coming before the SUV debuts.
Toyota isn't yet showing the front of the new Sequoia but expect it to be similar to the new Tundra. If so, then the SUV would have a large grille and Y-shaped headlights.
Inside, the Sequoia might also get the Tundra's upgraded infotainment system that comes standard with an 8.0-inch display but is available with a 14.0-inch screen on higher-level trims. There would be three rows of seating.
We also anticipate the Sequoia to share engines with the Tundra. If so, the base engine would be a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 with 389 horsepower (290 kilowatts) and 479 pound-feet (649 newton-meters). Customers could upgrade to the i-Force Max hybrid powertrain making 437 hp (326 kW) and 583 lb-ft (790 Nm). Rear- and four-wheel-drive layouts would be available.
Following the debut on January 25, look for the new Sequoia to be on sale at dealers before the end of the year.
Much like the coastal redwoods after which it is named, the all-new 2023 Sequoia makes an immediate, indelible impression. The three-row SUV is all new from the ground up, and it aims to elevate the full-size segment with luxurious comfort, impressive technology and breath-taking performance from an efficient new hybrid powertrain.
On the surface, the "Sequoia" name is befitting of this large SUV because of its size. Peeling back the symbolism a bit more, the species of tree is not only the largest in the world but it's also one of the strongest and most stout, known for its longevity with some being nearly 2,000 years old. Seeing the forest for the trees, the "Sequoia" name for Toyota's largest SUV represents its stature in addition to its long-lasting quality, durability and reliability. The all-new 2023 Toyota Sequoia is projected to be available in summer of 2022.
Premium and Powerful
This third-generation Toyota Sequoia is completely redesigned and worthy of the "all-new SUV" description. All 2023 Sequoias will feature the powerful twin-turbo V6 hybrid i-FORCE MAX powertrain. First unveiled on Tundra, this exceptional hybrid produces 437 horsepower and 583 lb.-ft. of torque.
i-FORCE MAX isn't just big on power, as this cleverly engineered powertrain features a unique motor generator within the bell housing between the twin-turbo engine and the 10-speed automatic transmission. This design provides both maximum performance and amazing efficiency, and it is designed and built with heavy-duty performance and demand in mind. Fuel economy estimates are not available at this time, but the i-FORCE MAX's output it is expected to be extremely competitive at the top of the segment - and a huge improvement over the previous generation.
Toyota Sequoia will be offered in 2WD or the available part-time 4WD system on SR5, Limited, Platinum and Capstone grades. TRD Pro will be offered only in 4WD. The part-time 4WD system relies on a transfer case, controlled via a lever on the center console, to select between 2WD, 4WD high or 4WD low.
Setting Sights on the Open Road
As it should be, the full-size SUV segment is a demanding lot. That means the Sequoia needs to handle a multitude of tasks in stride. Built with this in mind, the all-new SUV is rooted in a modern body-on-frame chassis with a fully boxed frame that shares architecture with the all-new Tundra and all-new global Land Cruiser (which shares its platform with the Lexus LX). The core objective of this platform is to provide excellent handling, supreme comfort and impressive capability.
The engineering team behind this next-generation frame was able to increase rigidity and improve ride comfort by utilizing new techniques, such as new laser welding technology that helps reduce mass and weight in areas it's not needed while reinforcing the areas that need it most.
Sequoia features an independent front suspension and adopts a new rack-mounted electronic power steering system for improved steering feel. A modern multi-link rear suspension is employed out back to offer a smooth ride and create opportunity to add the available Load-Leveling Rear Height Control Air Suspension and Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) for those looking to tow regularly.
The three-row SUV offers a range of configurations for seating and cargo. Depending upon the grade, second-row passengers get bench seating or captain's chairs, either of which recline for passenger comfort or fold down/tumble forward if larger cargo space is needed. The third-row passengers benefit from a spacious reclining backseat with available power folding, but the third row also gets one of the most noteworthy new features on Toyota Sequoia: the exclusive Sliding Third Row with Adjustable Cargo Shelf System. This segment-first feature allows the third row to slide with 6 inches of adjustment range. The third row can also fold down to complement the different storage positions of the new Adjustable Cargo Shelf System: a removeable shelf that can be set in a variety of storage positions depending upon the situation. The Cargo Shelf System is designed to offer the ultimate flexibility in rear cargo and storage needs.
Since full-size SUVs need to do it all, towing - whether it be a trailer, boat or RV - is high on that list of demands. That's why the all-new Sequoia offers up to an impressive 9,000-pound maximum towing capacity, a nearly 22% increase over the prior generation.
Towing can be an intimidating proposition for some drivers. Not to worry! Towing becomes a less daunting task thanks to impressive technology available on Sequoia. The Tow Tech Package, available on all grades but standard on TRD Pro and Capstone, offers a suite of features that include Trailer Backup Guide to aid in backing up the SUV with a trailer, and Straight Path Assist which helps provide steering control to keep the trailer straight on its intended path when backing up.
Drive Mode Select is an all-new feature on Toyota Sequoia, offering different driving modes depending upon driver preference, and it includes standard settings Eco, Normal and Sport. With available Load-Leveling Rear Height Control Air Suspension and Adaptive Variable Suspension settings expand to include Comfort, Sport S+ and Custom. Using the SPORT or SPORT S+ settings, for example, the i-FORCE MAX powertrain makes use of the electric motor's instantaneous responsiveness. While the electric motor does the bulk of the work at lower speeds, once above 18 mph, the gasoline engine assumes primary operation for excellent performance in the mid- and high-speed range. When in TOW/HAUL mode, the i-FORCE MAX system is constantly in tandem operation to provide impressive acceleration and torque for towing needs.
The view around this stunning SUV is improved as well due to Sequoia's plethora of cameras, displaying multiple exterior angles that are viewable from the available 14-inch touchscreen or the available digital display rearview mirror. Those trailering will appreciate Panoramic View Monitor, which displays a top-down view of the SUV and the area around it. Options include a rear split view to show what's nearby on each side of the trailer, and a hitch view to assist with trailer connecting. For the first time on Sequoia, factory available power folding, extending and retracting tow mirrors can provide added peace of mind when pulling a trailer.
Three Rows, Five Grades
Toyota Sequoia offers space for families who need it - whether that be to haul passengers, gear or both. It will be available in five grades that include SR5, Limited, Platinum, TRD Pro and the new-to-Sequoia Capstone grade. Each grade has its own unique look and feel, but the team at Toyota's North American design studio Calty was responsible for the styling and had primary objectives that would carry across the lineup.
"Our primary design goal for Sequoia was to create a sophisticated, yet tough and active lifestyle SUV that looks capable of handling a diversity of big adventure needs," says Calty President Kevin Hunter. "That holds true whether it's a night out on the town with friends, towing a boat to the lake with family or taking a more extreme off-road adventure."
Toyota Sequoia's grade lineup starts with the well-equipped SR5 that offers a strong foundation of power, efficiency and technology. It touts impressive standard features that include the i-FORCE MAX powertrain that is mated to the standard 10-speed automatic transmission, standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.5, moonroof, heated seats and more. It also features a standard 12.3-inch digital instrument display and Panoramic View Monitor (PVM). When upgrading to the SR5 Premium package, Sequoia adds the 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia display, power third row, hands-free liftgate, Softex seats, and cabin and cargo 120-volt power outlets.
Also available on SR5 models is the TRD Sport package, which upgrades the standard 18-inch wheels to 20-inch matte black TRD wheels. To complement sporty handling, it adds TRD sport-tuned Bilstein monotube shocks and TRD-tuned springs. Inside TRD accents include aluminum pedals and a red TRD push-button start.
Limited builds upon the SR5 with a clear emphasis on added convenience. Not only does it gain a standard 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen, but it also adds standard heated/ventilated front seats with memory settings, standard heated steering wheel, power-folding third row and hands-free power liftgate. Limited also receives standard second- and third-row manual sunshades to keep the back half of the SUV sun-free, when needed.
Available for both SR5 and Limited 4×4 models is the first-for-Sequoia TRD Off-Road package. Whereas TRD Sport is more focused on the on-road qualities, TRD Off-Road enhances off-road capability with the addition of a selectable locking rear differential, Multi-Terrain Select that helps controls wheel spin for improved traction and Downhill Assist Control to aid with steep descents. Crawl Control also comes standard, functioning as an off-road cruise control for low-speed trail navigation in 4WD Low. To keep a better eye on trail obstacles, TRD Off-Road also comes with Multi-Terrain Monitor to provide a better view of hard-to-see spots for the driver. TRD-tuned Bilstein monotube shock absorbers and TRD-tuned springs are added, and a red front axle driveshaft provides added flair. Inside, aluminum gas/brake pedals are included, and a red TRD push-button start button adds to the performance look and feel. Both SR5 and Limited are outfitted with unique 18-inch alloy wheels unique to the package.
Stepping up to the Platinum grade puts an emphasis on added comfort and premium features, thanks to heated and ventilated front and second-row, second-row captain's chairs, standard 14-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system, standard panoramic moonroof, standard Head-Up Display and more. High-grade LED headlights and taillights are added, along with sequential turn signals. Rain-sensing wipers are added to Platinum, as is standard Qi wireless charging.
TRD Pro is a great option for adventure-minded families that plan to get off the beaten path regularly. TRD Pro is not just an off-roader though, as it is loaded with premium features such as standard second-row captain's chairs, TRD heated steering wheel and TRD accents on the seats and shift knob. TRD Pro comes with additional cargo hauling options thanks to the TRD roof rack. TRD-tuned FOX internal bypass shocks offer a smooth on-road ride, but most importantly, they can confidently handle off-road terrain when the trail gets rough. A 1/4-inch aluminum TRD front skid plate offers added trail protection. Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro also offers additional trail capability with a standard selectable locking rear differential, Multi-Terrain Select, CRAWL Control and Downhill Assist Control. TRD Pro proudly sports a heritage-inspired "TOYOTA" grille with an embedded TRD light bar and marker lights toward the top of the grille. It's equipped with Pro-specific black 18-inch TRD alloy wheels with an increased offset to provide a wider stance. A dual TRD Pro exhaust tip provides added growl and visual appeal.
The Capstone grade sits atop the Sequoia lineup, building upon the great features of Platinum while adding additional top-shelf features to make it the most luxurious Sequoia to date. Capstone features unique chrome accents to provide an upscale appearance, with the most eye-catching feature being the standard 22-inch chrome wheels - a first for Sequoia and exclusive to Capstone. The premium cabin experience begins at the first step with standard power running boards that provide access to the standard semi-aniline leather-trimmed seats. Not only are the seats luxury-grade, but they also tout stylish perforation and a Capstone-exclusive black-and-white color combination. The center console and passenger-side dash are accented with authentic American Walnut with an open-pore finish that highlights the wood grain. On the dash, the Walnut pieces surround a Capstone logo that is accentuated with LED mood lighting when the doors are opened. To help provide an even quieter cabin, Capstone is the only Sequoia grade to feature acoustic glass in the front doors for more exterior sound deadening.
A wide variety of colors are available on the all-new Toyota Sequoia, including White, Wind Chill Pearl, Celestial Silver, Lunar Rock, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Blueprint, Army Green, Midnight Black Metallic, Smoked Mesquite, Supersonic Red and the TRD-exclusive Solar Octane. Premium paint colors Wind Chill Pearl and Supersonic Red are available, and the premium color Solar Octane is exclusive to TRD Pro models.
New Toyota Audio Multimedia
Toyota Sequoia will be fitted with the new multimedia system first launched in Tundra. It is headlined by a large 8-inch or available 14-inch touchscreen that controls the all-new Toyota Audio Multimedia system designed and engineered by Toyota's Texas-based Connected Technologies team. The Toyota Audio Multimedia system offers an improved user experience thanks to new sight, touch and voice activation. With Intelligent Assistant available through Drive Connect, simple phrases like "Hey Toyota" awakens the system for voice-activated commands to search for directions, find POIs, adjust audio controls, change the cabin temperatures and more. The cloud-based native navigation system offered through Drive Connect allows for real-time Over the Air updates for mapping and Points of Interest (POI), and Google POI data is integrated to ensure up-to-date search capability. It also supports standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto compatibility.
Toyota Audio Multimedia allows for simultaneous dual Bluetooth phone connectivity. A Wi-Fi Connect subscription offers 4G connectivity for up to five devices by turning Sequoia into an AT&T Hotspot, and it also offers the ability to link your separate Apple Music® and Amazon Music subscriptions to your vehicle with Integrated Streaming.
Active Safety System: Toyota Safety Sense
All Sequoia grades come standard with Toyota Safety Sense 2.5. This active safety system includes Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection that features multiple enhancements over the previous generation, including not only detecting the vehicle ahead but also a pedestrian in low light, bicyclist in daytime, an oncoming vehicle and a pedestrian at intersections when making a turn. At intersections, the system is designed to detect an oncoming vehicle or pedestrian when performing a left-hand turn and provide audio/visual alerts and automatic braking in certain conditions. Emergency steering assist is an additional function designed to detect pedestrians and stabilize the driver's emergency evasive steering maneuvers and help prevent lane departure.
Toyota Sequoia will be equipped with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC). Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist is designed to notify the driver via audible and visual alerts and slight steering force if it senses the vehicle is leaving the lane without engaging a turn signal. When DRCC is set and engaged, Lane Tracing Assist uses visible lane markers or a preceding vehicle to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane.
Automatic High Beams are designed to detect preceding or oncoming vehicles and automatically switch between high beam and low beam headlights. Road Sign Assist is designed to recognize certain road sign information using a forward-facing camera and display them on the multi-information display (MID).
Toyota's Rear Seat Reminder comes standard on Capstone and all 2023 Sequoias. The feature can note whether a rear door was opened within 10 minutes of the vehicle being turned on, or at any time after the vehicle has been turned on, with a reminder message in the instrument cluster after the engine is turned off, accompanied by multitone chimes.
In addition to the TSS 2.5 system, other standard safety features include Blind Spot Monitor, which is designed to help detect and warn you of vehicles approaching or positioned in the adjacent lanes. Rear Cross Traffic Alert can offer added peace of mind by helping to detect vehicles approaching from either side while backing out and alerting you with a visual and audible warning. The Front and Rear Parking Assist with Automatic Braking is designed to implement brake control when there's a possibility of a collision with a stationary object, approaching vehicle or while parking.
Limited Warranty and ToyotaCare
Toyota's 36-month/36,000-mile basic new-vehicle warranty applies to all components other than normal wear and maintenance items. Additional 60-month warranties cover the powertrain for 60,000 miles and corrosion with no mileage limitation. Hybrid-related components, including the battery control module, hybrid control module and inverter with converter, are covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. The hybrid battery is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. Toyota dealers have complete details on the limited warranty. Sequoia also comes with ToyotaCare, a plan covering normal factory-scheduled maintenance and 24-hour roadside assistance for two years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first.
