Toyota has announced 2025 model year updates for the Sequoia. Completely redesigned for MY2023, the three-row SUV gains the 1794 Edition trim, a special paint color for the TRD trim, and more luxury for the front-row occupants. Already offered on the Tundra pickup truck, the 1794 grade gives customers more choice when specifying their Sequoia. These improvements come at a cost, though, with the 2025 Sequoia receiving a price hike. It would appear Toyota has discontinued the 4x2 variants of the Platinum and Capstone trims. CarBuzz has contacted Toyota USA for comment and will update the article once we receive a reply.

Toyota's Biggest American SUV Gets Even More Special For 2025

Toyota has issued a major recall of its twin-turbocharged V-6 engines powering the 2022 and 2023 Tundra pickup trucks and Lexus LX SUVs. Engines produced between late 2021 and early 2023 might have machining debris left in the engine; causing engine knocks or, worse cases, a spun bearing and complete engine stall. At first, Toyota was unsure how many engines were contaminated, but now, months later, the solution is to replace more than 100,000 engines.

Toyota Issues Massive Engine Recall

There are safety recalls, and then there are really time-consuming, expensive safety recalls. Toyota is experiencing the latter, having discovered earlier this year a defect in its twin-turbocharged V-6 truck engines that power the Tundra pickup truck as well as Lexus's LX luxury SUVs—at least, those 2022 to 2023 model-year variants built between November 2021 and February 2023 (or the same model years built between July 2021 and November 2022 for the LX). The issue can cause the engine stall unexpectedly; per Toyota's NHTSA recall notices to dealers:

EDINA, MN – In what could be one of the most expensive recalls in automotive history, Toyota is facing a major crisis with its Tundra pickups and Lexus LX SUVs. The automaker has announced it will replace the engines in over 100,000 vehicles after discovering a potentially disastrous defect.

Toyota’s Big Blunder: Massive Engine Recall Hits Over 100,000 Vehicles!

From the July/August issue of Car and Driver. Toyota summoned the spirit of the 1960–83 FJ40-series Land Cruiser and channeled it into the 2007–14 FJ Cruiser. The SUV is underpinned by an altered version of the contemporary 4Runner’s frame and sits on a wheelbase 3.9 inches shorter than its mid-size sibling’s. Approach and departure angles of up to 34.0 and 31.0 degrees better those of the 4Runner and Land Cruiser of the era. A stubby 183.9-inch-long body and up to 9.6 inches of ground clearance make the FJ a nimble and sure-footed companion on unbeaten paths.
