2000 Toyota Sequoia specs

The Toyota Sequoia is a full-size SUV. The Sequoia is built under the Toyota brand and based on their Tundra pickup truck. Debuting in 2000 for the 2001 model year, it was slotted in price between the mid-size 4Runner and the Land Cruiser. The Sequoia was nominated for the North American Truck of the Year award for 2001. Also, it filled the gap when the Land Cruiser was dropped from the Canadian market in 1995. The Sequoia is built at Toyota's Princeton, Indiana truck assembly plant on the same assembly line as the Tundra and is currently sold exclusively in the United States and Canada.


The Sequoia is the largest SUV sold under the Toyota name, and is slightly bigger than the Land Cruiser with the capability to hold eight passengers instead of seven and room for more luggage behind its third row. However, it lacks the sophisticated permanent 4-wheel drive that the Land Cruiser is famous for.

The Sequoia was originally shown in car shows in 1999 and 2000, with full production starting in late 2000 as a 2001 model. Engine, driveline, and some sheetmetal components are shared with the Tundra, and shares the same basic chassis, with the exception of rear disc brakes and a more sophisticated multi-link live axle rear suspension. It received minor cosmetic updates for 2005 and gained a more powerful engine equipped with VVT-i, LED-backlit gauges, as well as a 5-speed automatic transmission, replacing the previous 4-speed. The Sequoia is slightly longer than the Land Cruiser, however, it is barely noticeable. At introduction it was larger than the Chevrolet Tahoe in most dimensions and similar in size to the Ford Expedition; its V8 engine was certified as Ultra Low Emission Vehicle. Frame assemblies and driveshafts are produced by Dana Corporation.
