Our week with the 2023 Toyota Sequoia has ended. We can say without equivocation that the new version is light years ahead of the previous model. Along with the Toyota Tundra pickup truck, this pair gives Toyota a formidable presence at the top-end of the market.
12 Features of the Toyota Sequoia
Building on our previous overview, we developed a list of the top features of the 2023 Toyota Sequoia. Nine of the features make the grade, while three need improvement. Read on and we’ll explore what makes the Sequoia worth considering.
1. Striking Exterior Design
The all-new 2023 Toyota Sequoia commands attention with its bold and handsome exterior design. From the front grille to the rear, the Sequoia showcases sleek lines and carefully crafted details that create a strong and confident presence on the road.
2. Monumental Interior Improvement
The interior of the 2023 Sequoia represents a significant upgrade from the outgoing model. With a bold dashboard and door panel design, the cabin exudes an upscale feel. Luxurious wood and metal accents on upper trim levels add a touch of elegance.
3. Upscale Front Cabin
The front seats of the Sequoia offer exceptional comfort and support, with ample headroom and legroom for taller occupants. Padded and soft-touch surfaces, along with the wood and metal accents, contribute to a luxurious ambiance upfront.
4. Material Quality Disparity
While the front cabin impresses with its premium feel, the further back you go, the quality of materials starts to fade. Passengers in the third row are greeted with cheap-looking plastics that, while durable, lack the upscale appeal of the rest of the cabin.
5. Intuitive Infotainment System
The Sequoia is equipped with user-friendly infotainment touch screens. The base SR5 trim features an 8-inch display, while all other trims boast a larger 14-inch version. Both screens are easy to see and operate while driving, with simple menus and large icons that minimize distractions.
6. Standard and Available Infotainment Features
The Sequoia’s infotainment system comes loaded with features. Standard amenities include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, navigation, satellite radio, an eight-speaker stereo, Bluetooth, multiple USB ports, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Higher trims offer a 14-inch touch screen, a 14-speaker stereo, wireless device charging, and a 120-volt household-style power outlet.
