  • The 1794 Edition is all new for the 2025 Toyota Sequoia. On the outside you will notice a unique grill, TRD OFF Road Pkg and silver accents. On the inside you will be greeted by a full western luxury interior. Under the hood is a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 paired with a hybrid system and mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2025 Toyota Sequoia 1794 Edition the BEST new luxury SUV to BUY?

    The 5.7 sequoia is the best Gen - the only one which all the seats folded flat and has the v8 reliability but didn’t compromise on power. Yes this new one is night and day to the old one except for reliability and for 70-80k the seats don’t fold flat, no offense but that’s a waste of a money pit for not even being practical of that size - better off if you get this vehicle if you don’t have kids lol or 1 kid tbh the cargo space is laughably bad for this price but the power and interior make up for it

    My aunts have a 24 capstone and I’ve been in it a lot more often lately and I gotta say, these are definitely better in person than they are on camera. Now ik isn’t the most spacious on the segment but just for the 2 of them and 4 on road trips it’s more than adequate. The TT V6 is hella quick especially when you floor and it just sounds aggressive from the inside.
    Only complaint I have about it, is the rear vented seats. Idk if it’s the one they have or in general but they don’t seem to work all that well, almost as if nothing is pumping out. Second thing, the ride is nice but over bumps, it does not soak them up very well considering it’s a 80 grand suv. Now for 25 almost 90. Hopefully they improved upon that.
    Other than that, I would say this one of the better options in the segment if having the most space doesn’t matter to you

    Toyotas Gets one thing correct and rest other doesn’t make sense to see how a customer is practically uses vehicle .. that’s second row doesn’t slides worst thing for third row passengers , if a full size fam of 7 atleast come in tho that suv . where is in the heck ur going put a full size luggage probably on toyotas head .. next the price tag for a crap piece of wood which is on the glove box .. not worth to spend that much toyota just coz u have fancy taco interior.. HUGE PASS
