Having confidence in your SUV is key when planning an epic family adventure. Toyota engineers are always hard at work innovating and fine-tuning, and the Sequoia is a testament to their efforts. You’ll be prepared for whatever life has in store.
Engineering excellence is built into every Sequoia. The i-FORCE MAX 3.445L engine uses a Twin-Turbo V6 design to unleash impressive power, and the mild hybrid system provides an additional electric boost. Once you’re in the driver’s seat, you’ll be ready to dominate whatever lies ahead.
| Horsepower | 437 HP |
|---|---|
| Torque | 583 lb-ft |
| Transmission | 10-speed automatic |
| Standard Drive Modes | Eco, Sport, Normal |
| 4-Wheel Drivetrain | Available |
The power of the Sequoia is matched by impressive efficiency. When properly equipped, it achieves an EPA-estimated 21 city/24 highway MPG.* Every driver can appreciate improved fuel economy, especially in a full-size SUV—you can spend less time and money at the pump as you enjoy longer drives.
If you have a trailer, boat, or other large gear to haul, the Sequoia is ready to rise to the occasion. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 9,520 pounds of trailer weight. You can also bring tons of your favorite stuff on your weekend adventure—literally.
Cabin comfort matters when the entire family is coming along for the trip. Between everyone settling into their seats and fitting all their luggage and other essentials, it takes peak design to accommodate everyone and everything—that’s exactly how the Sequoia is built.
The Sequoia seats eight passengers, enough to bring your entire crew of family and friends. When each seat is filled, everyone will have plenty of room to stretch out and get comfortable. Once everyone is settled in, you can enjoy the road trip in peace.

The Sequoia features highly refined engineering that maximizes capability. When put toe to toe (or is that tow to tow?) with the Tahoe, the Sequoia unleashes more sheer potential. The boost in horsepower and towing ability are impressive enough, and its improved fuel efficiency further cements the Sequoia as the smarter choice..
