  • The Sequoia is the largest SUV that Toyota builds. For 2024 you will get a new TRD PRO color called Terra, 18in forged BBS wheels and TRD cat-back exhaust. On the inside you will be greeted by a 14in infotainment screen, and soft-tex seating materials. Under the hood is a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 hybrid mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2024 Toyota Sequoia TRD PRO a better SUV to BUY than a Chevy Tahoe Z71?

    They removed the roll down rear windows and the backseats dont fold flat into the cargo area. Those two reasons alone steer me towards the GM twins. I do like this interior screen size and color options, but once the redesigned Tahoe/ Yukon come out, that will no longer be a factor.

    Truly love the new refresh on this and would have likely gotten it once I’m done with my current SUV but there are 2 things that upset me with this vehicle.
    #1 - Hybrid Powertrain for all trims (Long term Reliability + repair costs down the road)
    #2 - Lack of 3rd row room + cargo
    The lack of room is a no go for me. The older generation has more room. Will probably look at the Ford Expedition.

    I feel like its a beautiful truck but they missed the mark. All they had to do was make the gen 2 better. This takes away the sliding center seats, the roll down rear glass, rhe fold flat seats, and the legroom in the 3rd row. Its the size of a "full size" but the interior doesn't make sense for that price point. They shoulda kept all the good features of the 2nd gen and made it an xl truck in length like a suburban. I think for the grand Highlander and this to be almost the same size it missed an opportunity to be a legit family cruiser. I love my 2nd gen and as nice as this looks people with families probably wont upgrade.

    Lovely vehicle. My comment on the rear wiper: If the motor mechanism is at the lower end of the glass- its more likely to get damaged as people with groceries etc could hit it accidentally. In contrast if the wiper is mounted on upper section of the rear glass, then the mechanism that moves the wiper is "protected" from random hits form the groceries etc. You could add that to your next video- if you agree. Have a good one.

    2:40 I thought the very same thing about the Sequoia pulling off the better looks with the redesign. I can't put my finger on it, so I'll just have to go with the obvious - the wheelbase and roofline bring it all together better. Of course, the tire/wheel combo of the TRD Pro package is critical too. 0h, just figured out the MAIN THING,it's the REAR side design element that begins in front of the rear door handles. That's what's bringing it all together for me.

    That color is "Terra Cotta", not Terra (meaning Earth). This is a decent looking big SUV and on the interior I like the camo on the seats and really like that the infotainment is built into the dash instead of looking like its stuck on with glue like some vehicles. Not a fan of the plastic front or under any SUV that claims it can do off road and the lack of cargo space in the back, the shelf may help but it doesn't make up for a lack of suitcase room.

    If Toyota would stop refusing to offer a long bed pick up with a crew cab it wouldn't be forced to offer an SUV with a 3rd row which only fits 10 year old humans, same with the Lexus LX600 series. That is the reason the Tahoe, Yukon & Expedition will always be kings of SUV's.

    For $81,000 the third row and cargo area is a major major zonk for me

    Third row delete should be an option. Would make storage more respectable.

    That’s one big Highlander 😂. Remember when these were trucks that powered by motors rated for aircraft use?

    I have one and I absolulely love it! One of the things you haven't mentioned is that they hold their value! I have had Tahoes and they lose their value quickly

    There are enough Toyota badges to constantly remind you in case you forget what you’re driving! 😂
