2023 toyota sequoia trd pro priced prepare to pay a pretty penny

The 2023 Toyota Sequoia is going to remain atop the brand’s SUV ladder, with a planned sticker price based at $58,300.

The TRD Pro version, which is top-of-the-line and off-road-oriented, will start at $76,900.

Should you opt for a TRD Pro, you’ll get 33-inch Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires, 18-inch BBS wheels, skid plate, dual exhaust, locking rear differential, Fox shocks, a LED light bar, and LED marker lights.

In between these trims are the base SR5 (includes LED lights, flip-up rear window, 18-inch wheels, privacy glass, black grille with chrome surround, heated front seats, 12.3-inch instrument screen, power moonroof, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), the $64,700 Limited (20-inch wheels, chrome accents, gray grille, cooled seats, heated steering wheel, power third row), the $70,900 Platinum (premium LED lighting all around, 20-inch wheels, chrome mesh grille, panoramic glass, digital rearview mirror, and premium audio), and the luxury-oriented Capstone trim, which includes 22-inch wheels and costs $75,300 to start.

TRD Sport and Off-Road packages will be available, depending on trim. The TRD Sport package will be available on the SR5 and add Bilstein shocks and 20-inch wheels, while the TRD Off-Road package will be available on four-wheel-drive SR5s and Limiteds and it will add a skid plate, off-road Bilstein shocks, and a locking rear differential.

Toyota’s Safety Sense 2.5 suite of advanced driver-assistance systems is standard. It includes radar cruise control, lane-departure alert w/steering assist, and a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection. Other driver aids include automatic high beeams, road-sign assist, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.

The sole powertrain choice is a hybrid system that pairs a twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 engine and an electric motor with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard on all but TRD Pros, which come with four-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive is a $3,000 option otherwise, and the destination fee is $1,495.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

I'm not sure how people justify the prices on these things, or the similar GM or Ford versions.

Rick T. "If your driving conditions include near-freezing temps for a few months of the year, seek out a set of all-seasons. But if sunshine is frequent and the spectre of 60F weather strikes fear into the hearts of your neighbourhood, all-seasons could be a great choice." So all-seasons it is, apparently!
1995 SC Should anyone here get a wild hair and buy this I have the 500 dollar tool you need to bleed the rear brakes if you have to crack open the ABS. Given the state you will. I love these cars (obviously) but trust me, as an owner you will be miles ahead to shell out for one that was maintained. But properly sorted these things will devour highway miles and that 4.6 will run forever and should be way less of a diva than my blown 3.8 equipped one. (and forget the NA 3.8...140HP was no match for this car).As an aside, if you drive this you will instantly realize how ergonomically bad modern cars are.These wheels look like the 17's you could get on a Fox Body Cobra R. I've always had it in the back of my mind to get a set in the right bolt pattern so I could upgrade the brakes but I just don't want to mess up the ride. If that was too much to read, from someone intamately familiar with MN-12's, skip this one. The ground effects alone make it worth a pass. They are not esecially easy to work on either.
Macca This one definitely brings back memories - my dad was a Ford-guy through the '80s and into the '90s, and my family had two MN12 vehicles, a '93 Thunderbird LX (maroon over gray) purchased for my mom around 1995 and an '89 Cougar LS (white over red velour, digital dash) for my brother's second car acquired a year or so later. The Essex V6's 140 hp was wholly inadequate for the ~3,600 lb car, but the look of the T-Bird seemed fairly exotic at the time in a small Midwest town. This was of course pre-modern internet days and we had no idea of the Essex head gasket woes held in store for both cars.The first to grenade was my bro's Cougar, circa 1997. My dad found a crate 3.8L and a local mechanic replaced it - though the new engine never felt quite right (rough idle). I remember expecting something miraculous from the new engine and then realizing that it was substandard even when new. Shortly thereafter my dad replaced the Thunderbird for my mom and took the Cougar for a new highway commute, giving my brother the Thunderbird. Not long after, the T-Bird's 3.8L V6 also suffered from head gasket failure which spelled its demise again under my brother's ownership. The stately Cougar was sold to a family member and it suffered the same head gasket fate with about 60,000 miles on the new engine.Combine this with multiple first-gen Taurus transmission issues and a lemon '86 Aerostar and my dad's brand loyalty came to an end in the late '90s with his purchase of a fourth-gen Maxima. I saw a mid-90s Thunderbird the other day for the first time in ages and it's still a fairly handsome design. Shame the mechanicals were such a letdown.
FreedMike It's a little rough...😄
Rochester Always loved that wrap-around cockpit interior. The rest of this car, not so much. Between the two, it was always the mid-90's Cougar that caught my attention.
