Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro Hybrid 2026

Car introduction

The new Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro i-FORCE MAX combines a traditional body-on-frame off-road SUV with a modern hybrid powertrain. Power is provided by the twin-turbocharged 3.4 i-FORCE MAX V6 Hybrid Powertrain gasoline engine. System output reaches 437 HP and maximum torque is 790 Nm. The combustion engine uses a turbocharger and a combination of direct and port fuel injection. The hybrid system consists of an electric motor producing 48 hp and 250 Nm of torque, powered by a 288V Ni-MH battery. The result is exceptional low-rpm pulling power, which is a significant advantage for off-road driving and trailer towing. The battery is charged automatically only while driving, primarily through regenerative energy recovery during deceleration and braking. Energy can also be supplied by the gasoline engine. The vehicle is not connected to an external charger. Under certain conditions, the electric motor can briefly power the vehicle on its own, for example when slowly crawling. However, this is not a full electric driving mode intended for longer journeys. The electric motor supports the gasoline engine during take-off and acceleration, increases torque and helps improve powertrain efficiency.

The Part-time 4-Wheel Drive (4WD) system and chassis are designed for demanding conditions away from paved roads. The selectable four-wheel-drive system offers 4H and 4L modes with a low-range transfer case for slow-speed driving in difficult terrain. Traction is supported by an electronically controlled rear differential lock and the A-TRAC system, which helps limit wheel spin. The suspension, featuring independent front suspension and a multi-link rear axle, is complemented by FOX dampers, which allow improved heat dissipation and consistent damping performance during prolonged off-road use. Reinforced protection of the underbody, fuel tank and transfer case is standard. The Sequoia offers systems for controlled ascent and descent of steep slopes. The braking system consists of ventilated discs on both the front and rear axles and an electronically controlled braking system with regenerative braking integrated into the hybrid powertrain. The Sequoia i-FORCE MAX combines a conventional 10-speed automatic transmission with a hybrid electric motor and a mechanical low-range transfer case for genuine off-road capability.

The vehicle offers conventional road driving modes through Drive Mode Select (DMS) and off-road modes through Multi-Terrain Select (MTS), allowing the vehicle’s behavior to be adapted to current conditions:

• Eco – optimizes accelerator response and powertrain operation with the aim of reducing fuel consumption.
• Normal – provides balanced engine and hybrid system response for everyday driving.
• Sport – sharper powertrain response, transmission shifting at higher engine speeds and a more dynamic driving character.

Multi-Terrain Select

• Dirt – optimizes traction on unpaved and uneven roads (4H).
• Mud – adjusts wheel-slip control for improved capability in mud and on slippery surfaces (4H/4L).
• Sand – adapts torque delivery for smooth driving on sand and other loose surfaces (4H/4L).
• Rock – supports controlled movement over rocky and uneven terrain (4L).

In addition to the driving modes, the vehicle features other special modes/assist systems: CRAWL Control – maintains a low speed in demanding terrain and helps the driver negotiate challenging obstacles. Downhill Assist Control – helps control vehicle speed when descending steep slopes. TOW/HAUL – optimizes powertrain behavior when towing a trailer.

The Premium interior combines durable materials with comfort features for everyday travel. The SofTex-upholstered front seats offer power adjustment, heating and ventilation. The driver will appreciate seat memory settings and a heated power-adjustable steering wheel. The practical cabin layout is complemented by a power moonroof and power-operated rear liftgate. Infotainment and connectivity are provided by a 14″ touchscreen Toyota Audio Multimedia system and a 12.3″ digital instrument cluster. The premium JBL audio system with 14 speakers and a subwoofer provides high-quality sound. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support and wireless phone charging are standard.

The vehicle features the Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 suite of safety systems, which includes, for example: Pre-Collision System – front collision prevention with automatic emergency braking, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control – adaptive cruise control with distance regulation, Lane Tracing Assist – assistance with keeping the vehicle centered in its lane, Blind Spot Monitor – blind-spot monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert – rear cross-traffic warning when reversing, Lane Departure Alert – warning when the vehicle unintentionally leaves its lane, Automatic High Beams – automatic high-beam switching, Proactive Driving Assist – gentle braking and steering support based on traffic conditions, Trailer Sway Control – reduction of trailer sway and Multi-Terrain Monitor – camera-based visualization of the vehicle’s surroundings for safer traversal of demanding terrain and more.

The exterior and equipment emphasize the off-road character of the TRD Off-Road model. The distinctive design is complemented by 18″ aluminum wheels, LED lighting, roof rails and protective body elements. The combination of a body-on-frame construction, low-range transfer case, rear differential lock and hybrid powertrain makes the Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro i-FORCE MAX a true off-road SUV, combining high off-road capability with modern technology and comfortable equipment.
