  • the engine on the 2007-present Toyota Sequoia

    Engine

    4.7 L 2UZ-FE V8 08-09 (276 hp)

    5.7 L 3UR-FE V8 (381 hp)

    4.6 L 1UR-FE V8 (310 hp)

  • dont mean to sound too white, but sequoia uses every vowel

  • 2001 jeep cherokee limited 4.0 l i6 can eat toyota sequoia and toyota land cruiser in off roading

  • @maxthehulk no impossible land cruiser is the best but jeep is also good but why we never see jeep in the big rally

  • @jubavolubilis ok you are right jeep is not better than toyota land cruiser but it is better than toyota sequoia in off roading

    but maybe jeep grand cherokee 2011 5.7 l v8 hemi is better than toyota land cruiser in off roading

  • @maxthehulk Conisdering, the Cherokee is much lighter and smaller than the Sequoia, yes it is more capable. But, even though the LC is bigger and heavier the the Cherokee it is much better suited for off road than an old Cherokee.

  • @JustAnotherJake7 ok you are right but iam not talking about an old cherokee but iam talking about it when it was new

  • @maxthehulk You said 2001. A 2011 GC would beat the Sequoia but not a Land Cruiser

  • @JustAnotherJake7 i mean 2001 when it was new in its time in 2001 please understand me

  • @maxthehulk I don't understand what you mean. When all the cars were new in 2011? Nothing would change... the LC would still beat the Cherokee which would still beat the Sequoia.

  • @JustAnotherJake7 ok it is finished

  • @maxthehulk and a discovery 4 dominates both, while not having issues like toyota does and jeep has had. 

  • offroad? lol. in many places this kinda surface called roads

  • chrysler aspen is better tougher and stronger than toyota sequoia

  • i am between this and the land cruiser any advise guys 

  • @crapmunkstink

    Land Cruiser 100%. It has a far stronger chassis and frame than the sequoia, Far more reliable too as it is made in Japan, where as the Sequoia is made in USA

  • i like these, but i like the tahoe's better

  • the 2008-present Toyota Sequoia is assembled in

    Princeton, Indiana, United States

  • my room is a single parking-lot for this car.

  • beast of a SUV... like a tank!

  • I have a 2011 sequoia platinum! the best SUV ever!! beats out CADILLAC, YUKON< DENALI, & all of the ones that people THINK look more glamorous! I have driven all, I have seen them all, and the pro's out weigh the cons by far!! not only do they LAST LONGER you really get your money's worth in RELIABILITY and ROOM, SAFETY,TOWING,LOOKS INSIDE AND OUT, HANDLING, AND THE BEST OF ALL THE RIDE! IT RIDES AS SMOOTH AS A LEXUS! I CANT BOST ABOUT THIS CAR ENOUGH!

  • COOL!@

  • I drive a 10 year old Sequoia Limited. We take multiweek road trips pulling a camper (family of 7). We love this suv. It is very manuverable, comfortable, excellent handling - it navigates sheer ice, deep snow (in canada), gravel, uneven surfaces, and higherspeed interstates with ease. I am comparing it to the Suberban we used to drive - the Suberban had more interior space but in most every other way the Sequoia is a better fit for our family's travel needs.

  • great

  • I WANT THAT CAR

  • really awsome car i like it very much

  • lol he calls that offroad...

  • This car rules!!! I've had the pleasure of cruising it a while back. After one ride, you'll never want anythinge else.

  • WTF did he just said that gas is not so bad on this CAR, what fucking planet is he on

    14-19.. thats what Volvo XC90 does..

  • we were going to get a nissan armada but when showed my dad this video he changed his mind now we are geting a sequoia

  • can somebody tell me what body on frame is and the pros and cons of it?

  • @64bitgfx its a design layout in which the body of the suv and the frame are seperate.Pros are better towing and off road ablity,cons are more worse handling ablities and more weigth

  • WOW what an ugly Sequoia n to make it worse TOYOTILLAS ARE RECALLING OVER 2.3 MILLION CARS AND TRUCKS

  • recalling....doesnt mean 2.3 million cars are affected....you still see more high mileage toyotas on the road than any other vehicle....a simple pedal issue (which they dont make)..is better than the tons of problems with other car companies

  • my mom has this and my dad has a gmc yukon. the toyotas 08 and the gmcs 09. the leather in the sequoia is so much nicer and comftorable. my dad drives the sequoia every chance he gets to. great car

  • i love this suv, lives up to it's nature as one large suv as it should be coupled with a very intimidating and powerful look! gotta have one!

  • The Sequoia has cheap plastic panels inside that scratch up very easily. Just by brushing up against the door with your clothes you'll create noticable scratches. When getting out from the vehicle, if your shoe even gently touches the bottom extruded panel of the door, it will mark, guaranteed. ALL NEW SEQUOIAS have this problem, and it makes a new interior look old very fast. I don't know what Toyota was thinking when they used this cheap plastic. Actually, I think I do know...

  • Toyotas have the same problem in europe too

  • both expedition has great, spacious and comfortable interiors. as much as sequoia's dashboard sucks, the new side dor panels on the expedition does, too.

  • This car showed up in Prison Break 4

  • 2010 platinium is really amamzing inside but you need to reserve your parking spot before traveling somewhere... it is a mid size TRUCK!!!

  • i think your mom drives a midsize envoy

  • u mean full size?

  • see we would have gotten this suv untill we herd that the gas milage wasent that good but great car tho

  • awsome car :>

  • tengo una camioneta de esas en mi garaje XD... pero ojala fuera mia :P

  • Toyota American models should design their interiors in Japan or somewhere because they look hideous when Americans design it, no offense. Except for the highlander.

  • It reminds me of an obese person...

  • My mom has the platinum, i think it was about $48,000. I love getting food and etc with this car, its very fast even though it seems like a big heaver.

  • these people are smart...there is no center diff,it part time 4wd!!!

  • An SUV for the insecure soccer mom. I remember at the Detroit Auto Show (2008), and I sat down in the Sequoia, it was so big. Realistically, I can't use anything that big. Not only that, I saw a lot of kids walk away from that SUV like the plague, but of course I saw all the moms looking at the Sequoia like Oprah told them to lol. If I was a kid and I saw this SUV, I would be scared as hell for real. And one thing is for sure, when your children isn't comfortable, you better think about it.

  • y becuz ur too scared to drive a large SUV? who cares its spacious and powerful i would love to have one

  • MMMM PLATINUM ED

  • armada is the best

  • The only things that Sequoia shares with Tundra's the face, the dashboard & the driveline.

    The Sequoia has fully boxed frame with thick box crossmembers while the Tundra has a cheap C frame with paper thin crossmembers. Also, the Sequoia has a beefy fully independent rear suspension, while the Tundra has the weakest leaf springs of any fullsize pickup.

  • ha look at the pos ford flex and then look at this sequoia. and people wonder why ford is bankrupt.

  • too bad here in the philippines we only have the land cruiser with V8 diesel engine we do not have seqouia

  • just import if you can afford it.

  • land cruiser is great also its built for off road

  • love how that pos sagged when it was towing that boat.

  • another ignorant post! show me one that does not sag a millimeter when towing. i have seen everything, even ones that were heavily modified to tow homes on wheels - domestics and imports, the front goes up and the rear goes down. it's just common sense, ysf!!!

  • how is it different from a land cruiser?

    (here in canada we only have the sequoia)

  • Land Cruiser is actually a luxury SUV, with excellent build quality and the best off-road capability on any SUV.

    It is obviously more expensive than a Sequoia, since it is better in almost every aspect.

  • Oh, BTW, only drawback of the LC to a Sequoia is that the Sequoia is gigantic in terms of sheer size.

  • Funny. They sold the Land Cruiser in Canada when I lived there, but according to their website, you are correct. The Land Cruiser is essentially a Lexus LX 570. It has a wheel base close to a foot shorter than the Sequoia and is really on the upper end of the midsize SUV class. Nice machine, but not worth what Toyota wants for one. You could buy a Sequoia and a Jeep Wrangler for about the same money and if you have a trail mishap, the Jeep goes back on the trailer and you can still get home.

  • Yes, the Land Cruiser is for those, umm, shall we say upper class citizens.

    I've test-driven both the Sequoia and LC, and I have to say LC feels more luxurious and has a more comfortable drive. It's astonishing that despite it's smaller frame than Sequoia, it can tow just as much weight as a Sequoia/Tundra, approx. 10,000 tons.

  • It makes sense that both can tow 10,000 pounds since they both use the same basic drivetrain. I just bought a 2008 Sequoia Limited and it is pretty comfortable. I dan't see spending another $20,000 for a LC. Even if it is a little more fancy, the draw for the LC has always been off-road ability. Who takes a $75,000 truck off-road?

  • In the US (where most of the terrain is stable), it's ok to use a Sequoia.

    But here in the Middle East, you will need a sturdier SUV:

    The LC, Nissan Patrol, Mitsubishi Pajero, Land Rover Range Rover, or even a Suzuki Jimny lol

  • I don't expect any full size SUV to be exceptional off-road.

    The Sequoia is built on the Tundra frame (supplied by Dana I believe), so I would think that it is pretty sturdy. It is sprung for comfort on the highway and really not expected to see more off-road than logging roads.

    The wife has a Nissan Xterra and I must admit that it seems to do well in most conditions. I would also feel a lot more comfortable taking a vehicle with an Xterra price tag in harms way than a Range Rover.

  • some one wealthy lol

  • 1. the sequoia is bigger then the land cruiser

    2. the land cruiser cost more then the sequoia

    3. the land cruiser is a luxury SUV and its built for off roading

    4. the sequoia is great for trips, vacations, adventures, comfortable, and it can do some moderate off roading but its best for hauling.

    5. they both share the same engine in the most latest models

  • this was a good review but i wish roadfly was a bit mo' detailed with the diff seq. versions. id suggest tuning into PBS's MotorWeek. they provide a lengthy informative review

  • Cool! It's on my list!

  • In a way, suvs are good. You can carry more people. Lets carpool!

  • I'd prefer the Ford Expedition LT.! ;-)

  • is the new toyota sequoia bigger than the new toyota landcruiser?

  • most likely. sequoia's got more leg room in the 3rd row.

  • its always been

  • yes the sequoia is the largest suv built by toyota and the nest biggest is the land cruiser

  • i like how toyota didnt totally redesign this SUV pretty cool.

  • omfg lol that's so funny!!! P

  • holy crap this truck is massive!

    The largest 4x4 in Aus is a landrcuiser, and i thought that was big!

  • best truck on the market!!!

    gooo toyota!

  • what's the difference between the sequoia and the land cruiser? (here in canada toyota only sells the sequoia)

  • land cruiser does all..i mean in ser. off roading n on roading..i miss my 2005 intercooler turbo diesel lndcruiser bckhome..

  • Awesome truck. Fast and sleek Prius eater. Who cares about gas?

  • This truck has nothing on America's "Big Three"..., the Ford Expedition, Chevorlet Tahoe nor, the Dodge Durango!

  • reputation toyota sequoia 100%

  • Are you saing SUV's are gas guzzling?. Are you comparing them with a Yaris?. I'm sure they were built to do the same. Why don't you compare SUV's with a 18 wheel truck?.

    I like more the Ford Expedition, but this Sequoia has a better engine.

  • Toyota's reputation when back 40 years with this gas hog. This vehicle is as relavent today as the Galaxy 500. BAD MOVE TOYOTA!

  • 13 MPG in the city. $50,000 for what? To outdo your neighbor's SUV? This vehicle was stupid when gas was between $2.00 to $3.00 a gallon. The people at Toyota have made an enormous mistake with this dinosaur.

    Tell me that in 2008, Toyota isn't in bed with big oil when they put out an SUV that gets 13 MPG.

  • get over your self its big it hauls ass dont be mad because you cant afford fuel

  • "get over your self its big it hauls ass dont be mad because you cant afford fuel"

    ilovenissan, when you learn basic sentence structure get back with me. Thanks.

  • its a you tube post so i care no, and find a better response other than my sentence structure is bad because u are coming of as ostentatious

  • ilovenissan, because coming response other u see you tube. Me dont understand lazy English. If use don't cares to writes good English, eyes don't care to read use responses.

  • verbessern Sie, dennoch lässt Gespräch in meiner Muttersprachehexe ist Deutscher, also kann ich über Ihren Interpunktion- und Wortverbrauch züchtigen

  • Nazi!

  • dont be scared unless your a jew. naaa i like jews they all have my auto loans

  • Smexy car, but GAS HOGGER!!! >=O

  • Fine piece of machine, but Toyota decided to go really big a little too late. With gas prices the way they are, automobiles will be going in the other direction. For some, this is not a problem. For most, this is no longer a wise economical choice.

  • Why can't they just use Diesels to pull these trucks? We're running out of oil and they're still making these huge gas-guzzlers.

  • and we wonder why gas prices continue to rise...let's just keep guzziling the gas....thanks for contributing to the crisis

  • faster than the RANGE ROVER SPORT SUPER CHARGED.

  • Where have a seen that before, power 3rd row seat... oh yeah.. FORD.

  • i have one

  • my parents also. They love it!

  • These things are f*cking massive in person, they are on par with super duties.

    Big BIG pimpin, I love it.

  • yeah, I saw one at the auto show and it is quite a large vehicle.

  • this car is greezy like

    nothing can test this car

  • One of the Best SUV ever made....Bet this is a better buy and more useful then a Range Rover....this is why i Love Toyotas

  • ya right

  • oh yea? so y did it lose to it in a comparsion that had the 08 Sepuoia.....i thought so

  • your going with the tahoe right

  • hawt

    :)

  • 381 horses sure is alot

  • what the f u c k is you prob gmc4ever fuck off who give a shit about what girl you such a pussy and i dont give a dog shit about how many thumb down i get go a head do

  • nice SUV, this vehicle is for some that has a gestation, lol it burn lots of gas. specially when gas is $3.10 at this time

  • great car, but strictly for rich folk who need to to their boats as well.

  • I wouldn't drive an Escalade. It's the one chosen by most drug pushing, pistol toting rap artist bums.

  • Your bitchmade. I see more Crackas that steal your retirement money driving Escalades than "drug pushing, pistol toting rap artist bums". I hope you roll over and die in a car crash.

  • You guys you don't even know what you are talking about. Look under the skin of all this SUVs & Truck no one will beat Ford, please understand what valus and use value means. Look again Expedition, the strongest frame in it's class. Walking the walk of Over 30 years straight viva Ford!!!!!!

  • Well, the Tundra was stupidly designed with TripleTech frame. To be honest, Japanese 4x4 vehicles Nissan Patrol, Toyota Land Cruiser, & Mitsubishi Pajero; & British Land Rovers have been using fully boxed frames long before Ford. In fact, Nissan Titan started the fully boxed frame of all fullsize pickups, & Ford was only inspired.

    Why did the Patrol, Land Cruiser, Pajero, & Land Rovers become legends? Fully boxed offroad frame, proper transfer case rations, diff. locks, etc.

  • nissan safari 4x4 have a fully boxed frame..

  • pajero or montero.,prone to roll over..

  • Ford? Done that 3/4 of my life. Looked left, looked right, saw Toyota, liked what I saw, liked the reliability. Got rid of Ford, got disowned by my family. Now they saw the light, we are now one big toyota family.

    That's right, keep buying and buying Fords and keep our economy going. Viva Ford!!!

  • if anyone talks shit about chevy, fine. but then you go up to caddy, "FUCK OFF THEY WILL RAPE YOUR ASS!"

  • The fact is that the Jap truck is better than GM, Chrysler or Ford trucks because that's what they what to make. The fat cats at these companies don't want to make a truck too good because they want to maximize profits. They blame their poor quality on labor not the engineered design. You can still make good stuff in the USA by Americans proof being the Jap factories that assemble the sequoia and tundra and the Benz factories that assemble the GL, RL and ML, but only if the execs wanted to.

  • Make excuses why you need your Toyotas,GM,Fords. We need this mentality to keep the economy going. All you Peasants,Carpetbaggers,scalawa­gs just keep buying, Sure be a consumer instead of a producer and pass it off to your offspring. This is how the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor.

  • gmfc4ever: You are a fucking fool. Lexus is also a toyota. Caddilac is also a Chevy. Quality of the new Excallade is no comparison the the Lexus LX470.

  • I still am laughing about how people are saying how this Jap Crap is better then a Caddie. Ok so if some hot girl comes up and asks you what you drive. I think you would want to say an Escalade way before you would say a Toyota. (I would hope)

  • how about get a mofo brain and say the specific model of the toyota, i mean the Escalade is a model by Cadillac, so why not say Cadillac if ur gunna say Toyota?

  • I seen the new sequoias and they look very small compared to tahoes 07+ not my choice to buy it but it still looks nice.

  • The 08 Sequoias are actually bigger than the tahoe. About the same size as an expedition but with more interior room.

  • I got to say the SEQUOIAS AINT SHIT!! AND MY 07 ESCALADES LOOKS WAY BETTER AND ITS BIGGER THAN A SEQUOIA. Thank you for allowing me to have my opinion coming from a Toyota Salesman.

  • this car is almost the largest suv every made and i have a 2003 toyota sequoia that is the same size as the 2007 escalade so the sequoia is bigger than the escalade n my 03 cost more the escalade it came to be $60,000 because i but life track so that means in order 2 start it u have 2 but a code in so if someone trys to steal it da police can easily track it n bring it back to me n if u put in da wrong code it wont start and it has a decent v8 engine 4.7 liters 271 hp

  • All I know is Sequoias 2008 aren't going to sell very good, because they aren't worth nothing to the consumer trust me! I know best! General Motors has the best vehicles right now!!! Toyota isn't quality nor expensive only Lexus, buts thats it!!

  • alright man maybe ur right

  • Can you get a full time AWD system on the Sequoia? Full Time AWD is good to have especially in a snowy climate like where I live.

  • U.S. border patrol had ford expeditions a few yrs back but they didn't last. The now have chevy tahoes...a bit better but same outcome. They've told me the would die to have a vehicle like the Toyota Sequoia but its not in their budget.

  • I own a 2002 sequoia with 80,000 miles and not one problem with it. I take it off road and tow a 26 ft camper trailer as well. I just ordered the 2008 limited with the 5.6 liter engine for a bit more power and refinement...can't wait!

  • 5.7L not 5.6L

  • thanks for the correction bachtuyen84

  • GM suv's are ugly,bolky,wide gas guzzlers.

    this sequoia has alot of power, and fun to drive,

    BUT the King of SUVS is the Ford Excersion.

    (diesal of course)

  • The truck is a death trap and Toyota waits years to recall their multiple defects. Search on YouTube for Sequoia rollover and see for yourself.

  • i think its funny ppl who love GM so much, blow fire out there mouth and there ass to try to prove there cars are not shit lmao!

  • Who said GMs can't run longer then 4 years. Hahaha Bullshit!! I have had mine since 97 and it is still running strong at over 250k miles. My buddy bought a brand new 4runner a few years back and it seems like it was in the shop more then it wasnt. I talked him into buying a Tahoe last year and he loves it. o and by the way I feel so bad for some1 who would rather buy a Sequoia over an Escalade. They must not get out to much. Maybe they need to get off the computer for a little bit...

  • hahahaha yeah... I think I will stick with my Tahoe and Expedition

  • Отличный автомобиль!Самое то что нужно в России.Жаль только то,что в штатах она позиционируеться и стоит дешевле чем крузак а вот у нас почему то её можно реально купить на десятку дороже последнего.

  • Gm Makes better suvs!

  • actually they don't i like them more but they don't toyota's cars last way longer than gm's gm's are good for about 4 years but toyotas last forever

  • probably a 4 or 6 cylinder... but ive never seen a toyota v8 with more than 250k miles and still runnig good only a gm (chevy, gmc, cadillac) but gm really does suck for 4 and 6 cylinder

  • disagree I do like the new styling of the Tahoe's actually better than Toyota's but I have had Land cruisers and they never brake down i'm talking rough mountains with no roads Toyota quality is much better

  • all suck cars jap car uck bbuy chevy dodge qand ford fuck japan they bombed us fuck white white

  • does Heroshima and Nagasaki ring any bells?

  • they're both reliable vehicles but nissan is better. go nissan go nissan go.

  • sweet ride

  • man i love toyota, but i think this move is a little too late. they should have brought out this monster when gas prices were low! I think most sensible people dont want to drive around with 14mpg.

  • i still think people will buy it. look at the humvee, people still buy it.

  • wow, this car looks almost exactly like GM's suv!

  • it's still not better than the 2008 nissan armada se or le

  • ya but nissan's suck GO TOYOTA

  • im waiting for that sequoia. as soon as it hits the dealer.....im getting one. Toyota all the way!

  • we are buying ours tomorrow

  • toyota is the best GM sucks

  • thats a total copy of an infinity qx56

  • I'm surprised they didnt show the interior. That's a good thing, because I hate the Tundra's interior and sadly they used the same one here.

  • the interior on here is better than the escalade i test drove both today

  • The new GMs get better gas mileage than that.

    Plus the GMs have a hybrid that Toyota does not offer.

  • 2 bad gm has a terrible everything else

  • yeah but can your tahoe hybrid tow 10,000plds??

    didnt think so

  • 08 looking good!

  • thats alot of space!!!!

  • nice looking truck.Toyota stole the power fold flat third row seat from Ford Expedition/Navigator.but the big motor/and six speed transmission is far superior to the Expedition/Lincoln Navigator.
