2027 Toyota Sequoia Preview

The Sequoia SUV returns for 2027 with a handful of updates aimed at off-road enthusiasts and everyday drivers. Here’s a closer look at what’s changed for this full-size Toyota SUV.

Key Takeaways:

• The new Trailhunter package adds factory-installed overlanding equipment to 2027 trims.
• TRD Pro models get upgraded FOX QS3 shocks, a new Honeycomb exterior color, and an available TRD Performance Package.
• Every Sequoia now comes standard with a 14-inch infotainment touchscreen and Toyota’s latest multimedia system.
• Expect to see the new Sequoia in our showroom in fall 2026.

 

How Does the New Trailhunter Package Expand the Sequoia Lineup?

Toyota gives Sequoia buyers another off-road-focused option with the introduction of the Trailhunter package. Based on the SR5 trim, it equips the SUV with Michelin LTX Trail tires, an Old Man Emu suspension, front recovery hooks, additional skid protection, and bronze-finished wheels.

 

The package also includes serious trail hardware such as Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control, and a locking rear differential. Together, these upgrades make the Sequoia better prepared for overlanding and more challenging terrain.

 

What Has Changed for the TRD Pro?

Toyota also updated the Sequoia TRD Pro. New FOX QS3 adjustable shocks have been tuned to improve stability, ride quality, and off-road performance. Standard red recovery hooks and the new Honeycomb exterior color help distinguish the TRD Pro visually. Buyers looking for even more performance can also add the available TRD Performance Package.

 

How Has the Exterior Been Updated?

Rather than completely redesigning the Sequoia, Toyota refined its appearance with a cleaner, more upscale front end. Depending on trim level, buyers will also find redesigned chrome accents and integrated rectangular fog lights. The result is a full-size SUV that looks equally at home on city streets or country trails.

What Tech Is New for 2027?

Every Sequoia now comes standard with Toyota’s newest Audio Multimedia system displayed on a 14-inch touchscreen. The updated interface supports customizable widgets, quicker “Hey Toyota” voice responses, and AT&T 5G connectivity. Toyota also adds a built-in Drive Recorder Dash Cam as standard. When activated, it can automatically record driving events using the vehicle’s exterior cameras.

Digital Key functionality has been expanded as well. Drivers can now lock, unlock, start, and share Sequoia access directly through compatible Apple, Google, and Samsung digital wallet apps. Owners can authorize up to five additional drivers, and near-field communication (NFC) allows access even if a phone’s battery has been depleted for a limited time.

A 2.4-kW inverter also remains available, providing power for camping gear, tailgating equipment, tools, and other accessories.

Which Lighting Upgrades Are Available?

Toyota even improved the Sequoia’s exterior lighting. The grille-mounted LED light bar now produces more output, while available RIGID fog lights offer better visibility in low-light conditions. Available front recovery hooks further reinforce the Sequoia’s off-road capability.

Buyers can now choose from a broader mix of trims and equipment to better match how they plan to use their vehicle.
