2024 Toyota Sequoia at Don Valley North Toyota

As it should be, the full-size SUV segment is a demanding lot. That means 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.

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.

This third-generation Sequoia is completely redesigned and worthy of the “all-new SUV” description. All 2024 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.

Sequoia will be fitted with the new multimedia system from our other offerings. It is headlined by a large 8-inch or available 14-inch touchscreen that controls the all-new Toyota Multimedia system designed and engineered by Toyota’s Connected Technologies team. The Toyota Multimedia system offers an improved user experience through sight, touch, and voice. With Intelligent Assistant available through Drive Connect*, simple phrases like “Hey Toyota” awaken the system for natural language commands to search for directions, find Google POIs, check the weather, and more.

The native Cloud Navigation system, also offered through Drive Connect, supports real-time traffic, dynamic route suggestions and is powered by Google POI data to ensure up-to-date search capability. Toyota Multimedia supports standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto compatibility as well as dual Bluetooth phone pairing.

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, a bicyclist in the daytime, an oncoming vehicle, and a pedestrian at intersections when making a turn.

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.
