  • Toyota has released EPA fuel economy numbers for the 2023 Sequoia, and the new 3.4-liter V-6 hybrid powertrain brings a noticeable benefit.

  • The Sequoia returns 22 mpg combined with rear-wheel drive, while choosing four-wheel drive lowers that figure to 20 mpg.

  • This is a marked improvement over the previous model, which was powered by a 5.7-liter V-8 and maxed out at 15 mpg.

The new 2023 Toyota Sequoia brings a much needed update to the full-size SUV based on the Tundra pickup. Replacing the second generation model that had languished on the market for 15 years, the revised Sequoia arrives with sharper styling, a more modern interior, and a standard hybrid powertrain. While looks are subjective and the giant touchscreen may turn some shoppers off, the Sequoia’s new V-6 hybrid setup provides an undeniable advantage over the previous generation, with Toyota recently releasing much improved EPA fuel economy ratings for the 2023 Sequoia.
