Got our 2024 Sequoia limited in June and we are loving it so much! We went with the limited trim so we could do a bench seat in the second row. We haven’t had any issues with storage so far and we have 3 kids. Both our boys play club baseball too.

[@brittanyorr5653]

The only thing that keeps me from buying this is the lack of space available behind the 3rd row. I just can't.

[@slyfox909]

Same here. Wish they offered a 5 seater option, or at least the ability to remove the 3rd row seats

[@christopherstreet2214]

They need to make the grand sequoia asap

[@hellkitty1014]

It's just so strange how its only 2" shorter than a Tahoe, but has 35% less cargo capacity. The solid rear axle vs IRS really hampers things for it. I was shocked at how much body undulating and poor control the Capstone version I drove. I really wish they would've kept the IRS suspension to improve interior comfort and cargo, plus ride comfort.

[@scotthall1381]

[@MrMom950]

@@hellkitty1014 35% less cargo but also 100% less garbage car manufacturing vs the Tahoe...

The numbers are out there... its not even like they can hide it anymore... 100% confirmed Chevy / GMC is pure trash compared to Toyota...

I bought my Sequoia 3 months ago , I love it, so far I haven’t got issues with cargo space , and a couple of time when I took the whole family on trips ( 6 adults, two kids , and the second time 7 adults and two kids ) I just used my aluminum basket on the hitch receiver

No storage issues with my usage. love my built Sequoia. Get so many looks and questions even after a year of ownership.

[@rnmendozaphotography]

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”.

Traded Mazda CX90 with under 2300 miles and payed off rest of our Sequoia TRD pro! We absolutely love it!!! I seriously don’t get the complaints? Simple if you have 2 kids great anything bigger and you’re gonna need a bigger ride. And those crying about MPG??? Yall are drooling over Tahoe and ford when they barely grab at 15 mpg if that. Like I said we love it and the value holds. Very nice ride

[@MukisaSS]

What didn't you like about your CX90 that got you to trade it in that soon?

[@jay.rsingh2530]

Main turnoff for me is the cargo space and 3rd row. The trunk space is very lacking for road trips enough to where this was a deal breaker for us. Its unfortunate cause I would love something with the reliability of a toyota. Rented an escalade for a road trip and that thing was perfect for it - slid the second row seats forward a bit to give the 3rd row better space with enough trunk space for 3 full size travel suitcases plus other misc stuff. Very comfortable and rode fantastically, but id be concerned about reliability to own one personally

[@Almighty_cornholio]

Yet you can’t even fold the 3rd row flat in the sequoia…

[@CramerCrew]

I agree. We have 3 kids and are loving our sequoia! We got a limited with a bench seat so we could put the 3rd row down if we need to. We are loving it so much!

[@Jrahe0609]

Lots of issues with this. I’ve owned my platinum model for 4 months and I’ve lost 2 hitch covers. They come off with simple car washes (never had an issue for my other 3 vehicles at the same carwash). The day after I got it back from replacing my second hitch cover the volume knob broke off. The clips that hold things on in these appear to suck. I hate that the second row doesn’t slide to allow the 3rd row to have more room if you’re hauling luggage which actually really can’t happen because back space is nonexistent. There’s not good back storage at all. For such a huge SUV I’m shocked at how small the cargo is. We can’t even do a family beach trip in this thing! The JBL sound system is lacking. It doesn’t sound like the concert you’re paying the upgrade price for. Already looking at a new amp. 😒 It’s really spacious for the 1st/2nd rows, storage is great for the front seats. It’s got really smooth acceleration and a quiet cabin. Moon roof is freaking awesome. But I’m starting to regret my $80k purchase. I should’ve gone with the Escalade or Yukon.

[@LGM2000x]

good job brothers, perfect review! Hello from Chicago!

[@CarConfections]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@gabriellegutzwiller8144]

Everyone harping on the third row cargo. You’re shopping the wrong vehicle #1. It’s obvious the hybrid battery is what took away the cargo space. In my opinion this vehicle is NOT targeted for those in the stroller/toddler stage where you need the third row space and also have no more than 2-3 kids and get the bench seat version . This way the third row is always down.

[@briandorsey6437]

[@wiilli7685]

[@Germella]

Hey guys, thanks for the review! How do you guys feel (12:04) about the middle row seats not being able to slide at all? Is this the same thing on the top trim as well? What are the other 3-row SUV's in this segment that also do not have the ability to slide the 2nd row seats at all?

[@hellkitty1014]

Yes, no version offers sliding second row, which is an insane oversight. They're thinking was the 3rd row could be for max capacity and zero legroom, or vs versa.

Esthetically, I love the redesign on the new Sequoia, however the cargo space does make me skeptical for such a big vehicle especially for a family hauler. I believe the vast majority of Toyota are great buying investment but I would probably lease this one instead.

[@jon368100]

The lack of sliding on the second row is such a weird omission, especially because the battery is under the third row. The packaging issues in the third row are entirely due to the lack of an independent rear suspension. When Toyota announced that the third gen Sequoia was going back to a solid rear axle, I was shocked…not only have all of the competition adopted IRS, the second gen sequoia had it. It created so many problems for the cargo area and third row. With that said, they probably could have split the difference by putting the battery under the first row of seats.

The side profile doesn’t look as bad in white, the front and rear ends just look underbaked to me. It’s sad to know that this vehicle has just recently been recalled as well.

I absolutely love this cart but the way the third row seat takes up all the cargo space makes this car a pass for me. It is unacceptable that a car this big would have so little space. I have a Ford Explorer with third row seat and when the seat is folded its basically under the car and the entire space inside is free and most important flat. I have put 25 bags of mulch in the Explorer. I doubt you can put 10 in this SUV. Absolutely unacceptable .

[@Michael-li3id]

While I'm a huge Toyota enthusiast, I just don't see the value here at $80k+. Additionally, Toyota is famous for offering lousy interest rates/lease deals. If you get it for $80k out the door, you're looking at an $1,100 payment WITH $10k down and 5% for 72 mos. MPG has essentially become irrelevant in a world where most vehicles 'require' premium octane. Cost per mile is a far more accurate indicator. Yea, the V8 got 15, and this gets 20mpg.........................But the V8 used 87 octane. 93 octane costs 25% more here so the added 5mpg is basically a wash. Palisade/Telluride is 12" shorter and has identical cargo space. Figure that out.
