2023 TOYOTA SEQUOIA LIMITED HYBRID TRD OFF-ROAD TRAIL TEST

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Toyota Sequoia Limited with the TRD Off-Road package proves to be a highly capable and more affordable alternative to the TRD Pro. The reviewer highlights that this trim level retains essential off-road features like Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control, and a rear locking differential, making it nearly as competent as the top-tier Pro model in challenging conditions. While the TRD Pro boasts Fox shocks and a roof platform, the reviewer argues these are not essential for most users and that the included Michelin LTX Trail tires on the Limited perform admirably, even in deep mud. The vehicle's performance on technical courses, including a steep hill climb and water crossings, is praised, with the reviewer noting the effectiveness of the locked rear differential and MTS system. A minor drawback mentioned is the throttle response and stability control's tendency to cut power during spirited driving, particularly in RWD mode. Ultimately, the reviewer suggests the Limited TRD Off-Road offers better value, recommending it over the TRD Pro for those looking to potentially upgrade suspension later.
