The Toyota Sequoia comes in two trim levels: SR5 and Limited. Both are powered by a 240-horsepower 4.7-liter V8 mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive are available.The SR5 ($31,625) comes standard with power windows, mirrors and door locks, cruise control, automatic dual-zone climate control, power front seats, an AM/FM stereo with both cassette and CD players, ABS with brake assist, and 16-inch styled steel wheels. Four-wheel-drive ($3,530) is extra on both models.
The Limited ($40,200) adds leather upholstery, heated seats and outside mirrors, color-keyed body, premium JBL stereo with 10 speakers, a power slide-and-tilt moonroof, a roof rack and 17-inch aluminum wheels.
Both trim lines come standard with a lot of safety equipment. The electronic stability control system can help correct a skid when cornering. Traction control keeps the wheels from slipping when accelerating in slippery driving conditions. Front airbags are standard, as are three-point seat belts for all eight places. Front side-impact and head-protection airbags are optional ($500).
Toyota allows its customers more flexibility with optional equipment than many manufacturers. The SR-5 can be equipped with most of the Limited content in several option packages. These include a Preferred Package ($2,515) with the leather and premium stereo with a six-disc in-dash changer. An Alloy Wheel Package ($1,835) adds P265/65 R17 tires on 17-inch rims, color-coordinated fender flares and running boards, rear privacy glass, a towing receiver hitch, seven-pin wiring harness converter and high-power alternator. The Convenience Package ($255) includes heated outside mirrors, a trip computer with compass, outside temperature, current and average fuel consumption and fuel range functions, and a HomeLink universal transceiver. Stand alone options for the SR-5 include the power tilt/slide moonroof with sunshade ($1,000), roof rack ($220), remote keyless entry ($245), trailer package ($380)), the premium stereo with a 6-disc in-dash CD changer ($715), rear-seat audio controls ($240) and a rear-seat entertainment package with a DVD viewer and the rear audio controls ($1,770).
