Toyota announces the latest updates to the 2027 Toyota Sequoia lineup. There is a new Sequoia Trailhunter off-road package that may not be what you expected. This Sequoia update is inline with the updates that the company announced just a couple of days ago for the 2027 Tundra. Here are all the latest Sequoia SUV details. Let’s dig in!
First up is the exterior style update. You have to look close, but the 2027 Sequoia has an updated front bumper cover. Most of the changes are near the front corners. The Trailhunter model you see here has RIGID color-changing fog lamps and prominent front tow hooks. The rest of the exterior is largely unchanged.
The Trailhunter
The new Trailhunter off-road package is build on top of the base Sequoia SR5 trim level. Toyota has not yet announced pricing, but this off-roader should have a price that is considerably lower than that of the Sequoia TRD Pro.
The Trailhunter package includes a new wheel design. Toyota is using Michelin LTX Trail tires for this package. These do not offer a very aggressive tread, but it should be a good all-around tire offering. We will have to drive it before we make a full assessment. The tire size is 265/70R18, which can be referred to as a 33-inch diameter tire. The actual tire size calculation lists it as a 32.6-inch by 10.4-inch measurement. The Trailhunter uses Old Man EMU dampers and branded skid plates to added off-road worthiness.
Just as before, the Sequoia is powered by an I-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain. It combines the 3.4L twin-turbo V6 engine with an electric motor and a 10-speed automatic transmission. The Sequoia continues with a 4×4 transfer case that offers 2WD, 4Hi, and 4Lo modes. This is the same as offered in the Tundra.
Interior
The interior gets several updates as well. Most noteworthy is the updated steering wheel with redesigned buttons for the cruise control system and other functions. All new 2027 Sequoia SUVs now get a larger 14-inch center infotainment screen. It features Toyota’s latest Multimedia software.
The Sequoia offers the company’s latest Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 driver-assistance suite of technologies.
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA)
- Automatic High Beams (AHB)
- Lane Tracing Assist (LTA)
- Road Sign Assist (RSA)
- Proactive Driving Assist (PDA)
The 2027 Sequoia lineup will continue with the SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, TRD Pro, and Capstone trim level. We will get a lot more details and full pricing information for these updated model closer to when these models go on sale in the U.S. in the fall of 2026.
