2018 Toyota Sequoia
The Sequoia is the automaker’s large SUV, which is built on the same platform as Toyota’s large full size pickup truck, the Tundra. It also shares the same powertrain as the Tundra.
The 2018 Toyota Sequoia is one of the most affordable vehicles in the class, boasts more passenger and cargo capacity than rivals, and has a powerful engine. However, it can’t compete with others in fuel efficiency, and its cabin is long overdue for an update.
For 2018, the Sequoia sees styling updates inside and out, newly standard active safety features, and a new TRD Sport model with more aggressive styling.
