Due to the high attention and popularity in many parts of the world, most people will first think of the "Land Cruiser" when mentioning Toyota's flagship SUV. But in fact, like the "Land Cruise", it was sold in the form of pure imports, and there was such a product with a larger physique and called "Land Cruise Big Brother" by many fans. And it is SEQUOIA, which is the product that has been given the Chinese name of "Sequoia". Today, in Toyota's wave of product updates, it also contains the replacement process of Sequoia. And, thanks to the new generation of Sequoia has been officially unveiled earlier this month; a few days ago, overseas media gave a set of real photos of it. Below, let us take this opportunity to also take a look at the style of the "Land Patrol Big Brother" after the replacement.
The first thing to say is that the new generation of Sequoia will be available in three design versions; and this time the real-time model is its TRD PRO, which is the sport version. As can be seen from the picture, the front face of the new car is equipped with a large polygonal grille, and the interior is also covered with a blackened mesh. Combined with the angular irregular headlights and the bulging muscle lines on the engine cover, it not only looks particularly domineering, but also reveals a fierce face similar to the American muscle car.
On the side of the car, because it is a sporty version of the model, its A/B/C pillars and rims are blackened, making it further interpret the burly body while also having a stronger sporty attribute.
The rear part of the car, the first thing that catches the eye, is still the trim, letters and rear brackets that connect the taillights, and even the unilateral double exhaust layout, which is the product of the blackening treatment; it can better correspond to the identity of its sporty version.
Turning its gaze to the inside of the car, although it is a work of a Japanese brand, its interior reveals a hardcore atmosphere, but it makes it quite a bit of an American "big man". Moreover, the size of its full LCD instrument and suspension central control screen is also used to adapt to the strong interior layout, and the use of oversized decoration. Of course, such an interior design is indeed more in line with the setting of its hardcore full-size SUV.
In terms of space, due to the 5210/2029/1895 mm circumference and 3099 mm wheelbase, the abundance of space alone is probably not comparable to the new generation of "Land Cruisers" that are a full circle smaller. Of course, comparing its positioning, it is a "Land Patrol Big Brother" level product.
At the power level, the new generation of Sequoia, like the new generation of "Land Cruiser", canceled the setting of the V8 engine. Instead, a hybrid system based on a 3.5-liter V6 twin-turbo engine + electric motor + battery pack not only has a maximum output of 444 hp, but also allows it to sit on a maximum torque of 790 Nm. This is matched by a 10-speed automatic transmission equipped with a four-wheel drive system.
It is reported that the new generation of Toyota Sequoia is expected to be the first to be listed in overseas markets this summer; it is also expected to be imported to the mainland market again. So, will you expect a new generation of sequoia?
