Toyota Sequoia:

The second-generation Toyota Sequoia full-size sport utility vehicle enters its third model year with a new standard 4.6-liter V8 that is more powerful and more efficient than the 4.7-liter V8 it replaces. In addition, all 2010 Sequoia models add driver and front passenger knee airbags, a Cold Kit with heated side mirrors and windshield wiper de-icer, and daytime running lights to their safety roster, along with numerous new amenities and user-technology features. Many more popular optional features are now standard equipment on all models, making Sequoia nearly mono spec, adding considerable extra customer value and simplified vehicle ordering for 2010.

The Sequoia is available in SR5, Limited and Platinum grades. In select areas, the Sequoia features as standard E85 Flex Fuel capability on 4x4 5.7-liter V8 models.

Among the added standard features on the SR5 grade are a towing package, an eight-way power driver’s seat, fog lamps, running boards, power tilt/slide moonroof, a roof rack and rear spoiler and a leather steering wheel with audio and climate controls. The SR5’s standard audio system gains integrated satellite radio and Bluetooth®, and all models add USB iPod connectivity.

The Sequoia Limited likewise adds value for 2010, gaining a standard power rear door with a sliding window (previously standard only on Platinum), 20-inch alloy wheels, power tilt/slide moonroof, roof rack, rear spoiler and a backup camera with a 3.5-inch display built into the rear view mirror.

At the top of the Sequoia line, the Platinum grade gains laser cruise control, which can help maintain a set distance from vehicles ahead. A standard rear seat DVD entertainment system combines a seven-inch LCD screen with a separate rear seat audio system, including dual wireless headphones. Luxury detailing is enhanced with newly standard wood-trimmed steering wheel and shift knob. Both the Platinum and Limited grades get new chrome-accented vent register knobs.
