help Toyota Sequoia FAQ
Does the new Toyota Sequoia still offer a V8?
No — the third-generation Sequoia launched in 2023 dropped the old 5.7L V8 entirely. Every trim now uses the i-FORCE MAX twin-turbo V6 hybrid system, shared with the Tundra, producing 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque.
How much can the Toyota Sequoia tow?
The hybrid powertrain gives the Sequoia a maximum towing capacity of up to 9,520 pounds when properly equipped. That keeps it competitive with the Ford Expedition and Chevrolet Tahoe in the full-size three-row SUV class.
Does the Sequoia's hybrid battery hurt cargo space or the third row?
The battery packaging under the floor means the third row doesn't fold completely flat — it slides and reclines instead, which has been the most common owner complaint about the 2023-plus model. Interior space is otherwise massive, with seating for up to eight depending on configuration.
Where is the Toyota Sequoia built?
The Sequoia is assembled at Toyota's San Antonio, Texas plant alongside the Tundra pickup it shares its platform and hybrid powertrain with. TRD Pro trims add off-road hardware for buyers who want capability beyond pavement.
