The 2016 Toyota Sequoia Limited is what happens when a sumo wrestler goes to finishing school. It is enormous, powerful, and intimidating, but it also has heated leather seats, a moonroof, and a gentle side that comforts you while it bulldozes over mountain passes. It packs a 5.7 liter V8 engine making 381 horsepower and 401 pound feet of torque, which means it will pull a trailer, a boat, a cabin, or the collective weight of your in-laws' expectations without flinching. It can tow up to 7400 pounds, which covers most of the stuff people haul in Utah, including snowmobiles, campers, or that old FJ40 project your neighbor refuses to sell.
This Sequoia is not here to win drag races or save polar bears, but it will get you and seven other humans to any campsite, summit, or Little League tournament in comfort. Inside the Limited trim, Toyota rolled out the plush carpet. There is tri zone automatic climate control, a JBL audio system that still holds its own, heated front seats, power folding third row, and enough cupholders to survive a beverage apocalypse. The second row even offers available captain's chairs, so the kids stop fighting over who is breathing whose air. The cargo area expands to nearly 120 cubic feet, which means it can swallow a Costco run, a weeks worth of camping gear, or that weird oversized statue you impulse bought at a Moab art fair.
Fuel economy is somewhere between a brick and a freight train. Expect around 13 miles per gallon in the city and 17 on the highway, so do not expect any love letters from environmental groups. But what you get in return is unstoppable confidence in the snow, a towering ride height that makes you feel like a traffic controller, and full time four wheel drive with a limited slip center differential that laughs at ice, slush, and steep grades on the way to Alta or Snowbasin.
This Sequoia shines in Utah life. It handles snowy canyons like a goat on protein powder. It seats the whole family for Sunday drives around Utah Lake. It makes room for skis, bikes, coolers, dogs, and drama. The rear liftgate is power operated, the mirrors are heated, and the ride is smoother than it has any right to be for a three ton beast on a truck frame. This SUV is not trying to be trendy. It is trying to outlive trends entirely. That is why it is still a favorite among those who want durability, capability, and a little luxury, all in one unapologetically large package.
