Pick your favorite trim. Please comment often as you watch the video. I want to know your thoughts on styling, front end, back end, PRICING, wheels, interior...everything! Thanks for watching! Jeff
Good content as usual this made it very easy to pick the trim. We knew we wanted the mid point in the lineup. However one very important question Jeff. Is the platinum trim comes with a bench seat in mid row?? I hate captain chair set up. 🥹
Mpg of those cars won’t let me get them, fuel prices are high and I would not want to be on the merci of the government. 35 mpg like the highlander would be nice but 20 mpg is just to low. The highlander doesn’t has a useable 3 row unfortunately so that’s out of question as well. The same amount of people fit in a Mini Cooper like in the highlander. Only if the grand highlander would come through, I would think about it to buy it. With a spacious 3 rd row and 35 mpg.
Personally I would choose the PRO, but the wife would be happy with a SR5 with the TRD sport package just like the lunar rock …looks great for an entry level
It had better for that price. You could buy 6 , used low mileage 1st gen sequoia Ltds for the price of this base sr5, and they have leather, seat 8 ppl, full time 4wd Center lock diff, removeable 3rd row, 4.7l v8, and roll down rear glass. Think about that for a moment….
@@user-tb5ns7hc5i why would I need 6 old sequoias that may or may not have rust, mechanical, etc. issues that may or may not be reported. Not to mention the gas guzzling V8, lack of modern technology and safety. Sorry pal, you’re not really making a good case.
@@AA-vr8ez you must be a millennial. Lol. My point is that’s it super expensive. Sure it has tech and is luxurious, but it better be for this ludicrous price. An older used Sequoia is a fraction of the price, and in many ways, a more capable and still quite comfortable vehicle with a lot of still very reliable features. It’s a Toyota! Imagine what you could buy or invest in with the savings. Or some really nice vacations. Lol.
Great review, I’m glad they made the sequoia basically a tundra with a hardtop 3rd row suv. I’m more into the Tacoma , rav4, 4Runner, but this suv is looking good.
this video helped me decide that limited is for us!! thank you so much jeff!! SUPER helpful when we will probably be ordering our sequoia without getting to see it in person ourselves.
Fantastic and very informative video, Jeff! This side-by-side comparison is a must-see for any potential buyers. Limited seems to look the best (and balanced) to me. I know the prices are insane, but I will bite the bullet this time and get one. With the current inflation rate, it won't surprise me Tundra, Tahoe and Expedition will reach $100k soon.
I like the Capstone interior, but would prefer a Tan/Black combo instead of White/Black on those seats/arm rests. That White will show dirt/oil over time.
Thank you so much for this video! Just what I wanted to see! Definitely going with the capstone, it is a show stopper for sure!!! Ordering mine just like that one, wind chill pearl with 2 tons seats 😍😍😍😍 Gorgeous!!!!
Thanks!! It was a lot of work to get this one set up and get all five trim levels together at the same time. But it’s so worth it to be able to help people. I hope you subscribe and follow along
All the comments of the prices. When GM redesigned the Tahoe and Yukon, the Highest trim Tahoe High Country, and Yukon Denali, were about $82,000 with all the bells and whistles, subtracting the $1000 air ride suspension. Add that, they were $83,000+. The Capstone still is cheaper than those, and has ventilated rear seats, along with more power and torque. Only the white color of the leather seats, and power running boards, I don't like. But I would get the Capstone because of everything else it has. Heck an Escalade fully loaded still doesn't have ventilated rear seats.
This is a great video Jeff. Many of us would like to spec a specific model (TRD Pro myself) but with high demand this may help buyers to choose an alternative model. Oh speaking of the TRD Pro I was told 1 - 2 years wait time.
Awesome review and great to see all the trims in one video 🔥I’m considering either the platinum or capstone when I’m due for a new car. Currently loving my 2017 Highlander limited platinum edition.
Ik I’m a few days late but wow, what an awesome video Jeff!! Nice effort in showing us the new Sequioa and the 5 trims that it comes in. Personally I might go with a Limited but if I were super wealthy, I’d definitely go with either the beautiful Capstone or the tough TRD Pro!!
For the price, I feel like the limited trim is the best way to go. You can keep it plain or more premium! All all kinda sounded the same too except the pro. That’s on its own level
@@Toyotajeff Much Respect but I’d hire someone like Forrestsautoreviews. Not him obviously but someone who can do these kinds of sales superficial reviews or ‘intros’ in a fluid & flawless fashion. Forgive my suggestion, I hope it’s well received.
First timer here, I like your detailed video Great sense of humor, thanks for sharing . I liked the cookie model it on my list of possible considerations 😱👌👌🏻👌😱
With the current market, people are pretty much looking at $70k for a big Toyota SUV. The least expensive GLS450 outdoor was low $80k before the pandemic (GLS450''s price is ridiculous nowadays too). People looking for $70K SUV can do their own math, LOL.
You should mention that if you get the power lift gate (the hands free) you cannot get a tow package. If they add the tow hitch they will need to move the sensors around which is an added cost.
Great comparison! Wish they had made the Capstone with saddle brown interior. Love the exterior, but white interior with small kids is a bad idea! Honestly, if there was a Platinum with chrome or satin trim versus black, that’s the way I’d go.
Personally, I’d want the Capstone with a TRD 4x4 pkg and a bench 2nd row, plus the ability to fully remove the 3rd row if necessary. If I can’t get that, the best option is a limited with the TRD 4x4 add on and pano roof. Very annoying I can’t option a limited trim with real leather so I can get the bench seat to seat 8ppl. My 1st gen sequoia Ltd has all this with leather and full time 4wd Center locking diff! And roll down rear hatch glass and bulletproof 4.7L v8. Come on Toyota! This new sequoia is better than the 2nd gen, but still not as good as the 1st gen. Why?! At this significantly high pricing, it just makes lower mileage 1st gens very valuable again by comparison.
This is my first time owning a full sized SUV and after driving the ‘24 Sequoia Platinum for the past six weeks,here are my observations. First the seats are firmer compared to the Expedition Limited and Infinity QX80. Gas Mileage 13-15MPG City 18-23MPG Hwy. it is more fuel efficient to use “Normal” mode when driving on city streets with stop and go traffic. Full tank on a road trip is approximately 450miles. The drive is very comfortable. There’s seems to be an issue with the power liftgate. If you opened the rear hatch and not made sure it was completely shut, you will have the error tone when using the liftgate. Indoor cabin is very quiet, ventilated and heated seats are very comfortable. The vehicle does not have the Toyota “Digital Key”but the Toyota App for remote start and lock/unlock works. I am unsure why it was not available. For charging your phones, this comes with both USB A and USB C ports. It doesn’t have the traditional “cigarette adapter”.
Luv this guy and he is the right rep for Toyota. Professional and Funny and i actually bought my new car last year by his video on the 2023 Camry's 👏👏👏👍👍🥇🥇
You showed us alot without too many ads. I really appreciate your time. Unfortunately, am disappointed how high sequoia is comparing to Tundra. I really would get the sr5 if I could only get premium grill and rims for 60k. Forget about capstone seats and etc.
Yeah I had the same want in a tundra. I had a 6 passenger Sr5 tundra, upgraded to pro, and really missed the extra seat. Now with more kids, I want an 8 passenger Sequoia Pro.
I think I might go for the TRD PRO it just looks amazing and awesome I wanted to get the Capstone Version but the TRD PRO just Blew Me off with the Exterior front, the Wheels, and the Interior feels Special!
Any one of these with the TRD 4x4 pkg added, and then a 3” lift with a decent set of larger offroad tires would be a very capable luxurious and reliably dependable overlander expedition rig. Basically a Landcruiser minus full time 4wd.
EVERY dealer I went to ask for $15k mark up on the TRD Pro. Plus, THEY WILL NOT SELL you the Sequoia without the 10 year extended warranty added to the already pricey SUV. So you be looking around $100k+ out the door. The TRD Pro looks super good in person though.
Great works Jeff. Informative and entertaining. I was hoping for a low $50k in the SR5 but $60k? That's $10k more than a comparable Tundra. $50k is already way over what I am willing to spend for a vehicle and $60k is insane. I will pass this one.
@@ARIN4UK I’m inclined to agree with you, which is why the OP shouldn’t “pass on this one” based on price alone. Anything else is going to priced high as well.

The Capstone only has ONE interior color option???
The fact that he got all of em lined up and was able to achieve going through all of
Em in the time slot he had. Respect!

The SR5 with TRD Sport package works for me. You indeed really did the heavy lifting comparing the different trims. Thanks Jeff for this content.
Thanks so much! I’m happy to help
No other review is more convincing and comprehensive. Thank you you’re making choosing much easier than even visiting Toyota showroom.
Great review, I’m glad they made the sequoia basically a tundra with a hardtop 3rd row suv. I’m more into the Tacoma , rav4, 4Runner, but this suv is looking good.
No one else is doing this all trim level review, but you are. This is why you are great, that and the Adam Sandler reference. I get you.

Wow. That Capstone and TRD Pro is gonna kick some serious butt out there! 😂 Toyota has stepped up its Sequoia A-game BIG TIME!! 😳
TRD Pro best looking front end but that Capstone luxury and wheel package is everything 🥹
101% respect to dis guy. having dis all reviewed/ compared/detaile etc. awesome vid Bro! Keepitup.Godbless
Thanks so much Guian!!
The pricing is outrageous.
Disappointed that it doesn’t have a roll down rear window. Praying that doesn’t disappear on the 4Runner. Favorite trim level is the Capstone….by far!
that Capstone interior blows me away it's so luxury and unique
It’s absolutely gorgeous and that windchill pearl paint is superb.
I only like the platinum! Everything is black out! I don’t like chrome
Very rad video Jeff! Such a great comparison!
Thanks everyone subscribe to TRD JON
I like the Capstone interior, but would prefer a Tan/Black combo instead of White/Black on those seats/arm rests. That White will show dirt/oil over time.
I absolutely love this comparison. No one does it, but it's so important to help making a decision.

I love the Capstone trim level!
Awesome review and great to see all the trims in one video
😂. Too cute! I need one for my German shepherd! Now I know exactly what I want! You’re the best I’ve seen!!!!!
Love it! Only thing I wish is that you could remove the 3rd row. But totally get it
I appreciate that you got them all together !
Jeff, your presentation is superb!! I really appreciate your description of each trim. Thank you for not jumping into salesman format.
Honestly the SR5 with TRD Sport package is best value 👍🏾
Man, this was an awesome review. I haven’t enjoyed a review like this for a long time. THANK YOU

Amazingly detailed descriptions. Having three dogs to Travel with and be comfortable, the eight passengers Toyota Limited should be the right choice.
Thanks for the compliment!!
TRD Pro was the only overall I liked but that Capstone back end definitely caught my eye. Loved the Happy Gilmore reference 😁❤
😄 I liked this. It was funny and the first video I've seen with a comparison of all the models. Just what I needed. Thanks!

The pro is a beast better than the capstone
Dude you are hilarious, enjoyed all of these Sequoia Reviews.
I wanted one so badly to replace my 10-year-old Armada that I've been towing with for 8 years. However, the pricing on these is a kick in the nuts.
The new armada isn't good anymore isn't!?
Was wanting a Platinum but with the black interior, 7 seats and price I'll be getting a limited.
AWESOME!! So glad this video was dropped
ToyotaJeff, you are by far the best reviewer for these Sequoias. Love it! Keep up the good work.

We need this same comparison video for the Tundra
Very detailed and presented in a great way. Having the whole collection right there made it easy to see differences. Thank you.
"How do you like my grill?" - That's a laugher right there! 😄

@@Toyotajeff can tell you're king of the Sunday BBQ
Thank you so much, this is best video about the new Sequoia.
Thanks!!
Beautiful designs not crazy about the turbo engines! Time is the teller of all truths
Are you able to get a bench in the 2nd row for the capstone model?
I love the Pro trim. But, I don’t like the captain chairs configuration.
I agree it would be nice to have a choice
Yeah I had the same want in a tundra. I had a 6 passenger Sr5 tundra, upgraded to pro, and really missed the extra seat. Now with more kids, I want an 8 passenger Sequoia Pro.
Wondering what is the difference between the TRD pro and one of the lower trims with the TRD off-road package.
I haven’t seen a single trd off-road package
TRD off road package has the bilstein shocks versus the TRD Pro has the Fox Suspension.
@@jeremycook9852 but what else? Any exterior changes?
@@chrisd5383 heritage grill, camo fender flares, integrated roof rack, BBS wheels…..I think there’s some differences on the interior as well.
@@jeremycook9852 no freaking way! Awesome! Do you have a link?

It’s hot right!!
Smokin Hot!!!!!
Awesome review! trd pro is my fav!
Does the platinum have ambient lighting?
I’m a huge Toyota fan and that’s all I drive BUT I’ll tell you right now they are priced TOO DAMN HIGH!!!
Brand new from the ground up, they are right in line with the American vehicles.
inflation, I mean just look at used car prices
Thanks for making this video. I’m thinking Capstone in black. Now I just have to convince the wife 😬
Which of the 5 models have the smoothest on-road ride? I think the limited has the quietest, smoothest ride because of the tires... Am I right?
I think the air suspension makes for a really good ride and the higher trim levels. I really did like the SR5 ride. I drove that one for an hour
World Class Show ✅🏆👍
Nice cars, to bad every dealer is marking them up $5,000 or more over sticker, in the Chicagoland area.
This is really good way to compare apréciate it
I must say that was an Awesome Review🤗🤗 No comment on The Running Man dance😂😂. My pick is the Platinum.
Thanks!! And yes it’s best not to even pay attention to my dancing. It’s distracting even to me ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Can you get a bench in the other trims if we don’t want the captain chairs ?
Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
Are the captain chair changeable in the capstone can I get 3 chair in the second row?
No. Only in sr5 or limited
Thanks for the video. Wondering how much does "TRD Sport" or "TRD Off-road" cost on top of the SR5.
Great works Jeff. Informative and entertaining. I was hoping for a low $50k in the SR5 but $60k? That's $10k more than a comparable Tundra. $50k is already way over what I am willing to spend for a vehicle and $60k is insane. I will pass this one.
I agree…. Prices suck
dont forget the added $10k mark up. 😂
This is the new normal until the chip shortage and supply chain issues can be overcome. Supply is so low for the high demand 🤷♂️
@@moloono1 I think it’s the new normal period.
@@ARIN4UK I’m inclined to agree with you, which is why the OP shouldn’t “pass on this one” based on price alone. Anything else is going to priced high as well.
The SR5 only comes with a non adjustable second row bench. My wife’s sienna LE even has adjustable captains chairs in second row. That’s a mistake
The second row is non adjustable on all models. Only the 3rd row is adjustable.
Great video Jeff .. I will go with the Limited
Thanks I like that one a lot too
I love the obsidian blue premium.i love the inside and outside .it's beautiful in and out.i will wait it out and buy it after 5yrs.
Did they completely remove the power back window??
Awesome video. Thanks this helped me pick
Does the tow package have the electronic trailer braking system?
