How the Toyota Sequoia compares with the Chevrolet Tahoe, Ford Expedition and Nissan Armada for drivers in Victorville and across the High Desert.
The Toyota Sequoia is a full-size three-row SUV that seats up to eight and pairs a twin-turbo V6 hybrid powertrain with part-time four-wheel drive. Toyota has updated it for 2027 with a sharper exterior, new technology and a newly available Trailhunter package.
The 2027 Sequoia comes in SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, TRD Pro and Capstone grades. Toyota's 2027 announcement covers the styling, technology, safety and Trailhunter updates. Toyota has said full 2027 specifications will follow closer to the start of production this fall. Where this page lists engine, towing, fuel economy and cargo figures, they are Toyota's published 2026 Sequoia numbers, which we will update as 2027 details are released.
This guide compares the Sequoia with three full-size rivals: the Chevrolet Tahoe, the Ford Expedition and the Nissan Armada.
Horsepower, torque, towing and fuel economy are Toyota's 2026 Sequoia figures, shown until 2027 specifications are published. Towing varies by grade and drivetrain, and actual results depend on how the vehicle is equipped and loaded.
The Tahoe is offered with a 5.3-liter V8 (355 horsepower), a 6.2-liter V8 (420 horsepower) and a 3.0-liter Duramax turbo-diesel six-cylinder (305 horsepower), all with a 10-speed automatic. The lineup includes the LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier and High Country.
Every Expedition uses a twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with a 10-speed automatic. It makes 400 horsepower in standard form and 440 horsepower in the High-Output version found on the Tremor and available on the Platinum. Grades are Active, Platinum, Tremor and King Ranch.
The Armada uses a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 rated at 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic. It is available with two-wheel or four-wheel drive and seats seven or eight.
