Toyota Sequoia

The ride seems compliant at first but is plagued with too much shudder and jiggle. Towing capacity is stout, at over 9,000 pounds. Most trims have a 14-in. infotainment touchscreen that's a long reach away. AEB with pedestrian detection, AEB highway, BSW, and RCTW come standard. A power tailgate is standard for 2026.

Handling is clumsy and even though the ride was improved, it still feels like a truck to drive. Off-road capability is impressive. Controls are simple to use, but it's a long reach to some of the radio controls across the wide cabin. A long-overdue 2016 update brought more modern infotainment and available blind spot monitoring. Overall though, the Sequoia feels dated next to more modern competition. The 2018 model gets the Toyota Safety Sense-P (TSS-P) as standard equipment on all trim lines. TSS-P includes forward collision warning with automatic braking and pedestrian detection, lane departure warning with lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. Other 2018 updates include an new trim level, called called TRD Sport. Available on four- and two-wheel drive models, the added equipment includes specially tuned Bilstein shocks and beefier front and rear anti-sway bars, 20-inch wheels, LED headlights, and various "TRD" badging. All 2020 models get standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility.
