Every time you start off on a
journey, whether it’s a quiet
weekend away or a quick trip
around town, rest assured —
we’re with you every step
of the way. For more than
50 years, Toyota engineering
has created more than just
durable vehicles. It’s created
enduring memories.
Am I the Sequoia type? That depends. If your natural habitat
is your couch, then probably not. But if you prefer to steer clear of the
ordinary, this might well be your next vehicle. Exceptionally spacious
and ruggedly capable, Toyota Sequoia is all about helping the
maximum number of people get maximum enjoyment out of the day.
Fill it full of kids, friends and whatever gear you’ll need. Then go
do something that will be worth talking about when you’re standing
around the water cooler on Monday morning. After all, you seem like
you’re more interested in looking for adventure than searching for
the remote. The 2011 Toyota Sequoia. Moving Forward.

1. Standard on SR5 and Limited. Not available on Platinum. 2. Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution.
How much room does it have?
More than you’re likely to need. There’s seating for eight1with the standard third row. Or
you can fold the seats flat for 120.1 cubic feet of cargo space.
2That’s enough room for
all the gear you and your crew will need to go just about anywhere. You could just say
it’s big — but big is too small a word to do it justice.

What can I do with all that space?
It’s up to you. That’s because Sequoia’s interior isn’t just vast; it’s versatile. Both the
sliding second-row and reclining third-row seats feature a split-fold design. That allows
you to choose how to stow most of your stuff: upright, flat, you name it. You could also
keep the seats upright and put cargo and up to eight people in the Sequoia. So really the
question is, how many people will be calling in sick to work?
LONGEVITY FACT: Sequoia’s ignition system uses long-reach
iridium-tipped spark plugs. Why iridium? It’s six times harder,
eight times stronger and has a melting point 1200 degrees
higher than platinum.
Available power rear liftgate
The 2011 Sequoia offers an available power rear liftgate that makes it
easy to access all that rear cargo space. Just press a button on the
remote key fob, and the liftgate gently releases upward. To close it,
press a button on the liftgate frame, or one on the dash, or use the
key fob to close it automatically.
Cargo space and more
There’s more to the rear of Sequoia’s cabin than just a whopping 120.1
cubic feet of usable cargo space.
1There’s also rear under-floor storage,
plus a cargo area 12V auxiliary power outlet and grocery bag hooks.
Those sitting in the third-row seat will find cup holders, personal storage
and, on the Limited and Platinum, window shades.

1. Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution.

3. To help make the most of its spacious interior,
Sequoia features an available sliding and reclining
second-row seat. You can use the versatility of its
40/20/40 split-fold design. Or you can slide it back
to add leg room. That plus the extraordinary head
room and shoulder room in the second row help
make Sequoia one comfortable ride.
1. The reclining third-row seat of Sequoia is wide
enough to accommodate three adults in true comfort,
or it can split-fold 60/40 for a combination of people
and cargo. And because the seats fold completely
flat, you can actually do what it says on that box and
keep “this end up.”
2. The second-row seat features one-touch access.
Say you’ve opened the rear passenger-side door on
Sequoia. Just pull the lever on the outside of the
second-row seat cushion. One lever — that’s all it
takes to simultaneously fold the seat down and slide
it forward.That means easy access to the third-row
seat without the usual gymnastics.
1. Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution.
Need room? Fold the second- and third-row seats flat for 120.1 cubic feet of cargo space.

And with the available power reclining and folding third-row seat, settling in for the long
haul is as easy as pushing a button.
The front-seat console on Sequoia Platinum houses climate controls and cup holders
for those in the second row. There are also auxiliary inputs for the available rear-seat
entertainment system, plus a 115V outlet.

Will my road trips require pavement?
No. Features like an available Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system do give
Sequoia perfect road manners. But with an available Multi-Mode 4WD system with
Torsen®1 limited-slip center differential, Sequoia is ready whenever the road turns to
trail. In fact, that’s when the real fun begins.

Is Sequoia an SUV or a private jet?
The confusion is understandable. Consider how relaxing and refined Sequoia’s interior is
as you settle into the heated/ventilated driver and front passenger seats that are available
on Platinum models. Press a button, and that driver’s seat automatically adjusts to your
preset driving position. Then adjust the tilt/telescopic steering wheel, set the Dynamic
Laser Cruise Control (DLCC)1and enjoy the drive. Where is your sense of adventure
taking you today?
Rear-seat DVD entertainment system
Sequoia’s second-row seat feels like the front row of a theater. That’s
because you can watch the latest Hollywood blockbuster or play
video games on the available rear-seat DVD entertainment system’s
9-inch screen. With so much to do, the kids will be hoping they’re not
there yet. But relax — all the movies and games they bring along will
fit in Sequoia’s many storage compartments.
Touch-screen navigation2with backup camera3
Sequoia’s available touch-screen DVD navigation system includes a
backup camera. Put Sequoia in Reverse, and it automatically shows
what the camera sees immediately behind you. Which means if
you’re thinking of towing a boat, you’ll be able to line up the tow hitch
like a pro. What’s more, this nav system has an auxiliary audio input
compatible with most USB audio devices. And built-in Bluetooth®4
technology for hands-free phone capability with music streaming.

How is Sequoia designed to help protect me?
Advanced safety technologies are something you’ll find throughout Sequoia. Clearly Toyota doesn’t
believe in simply relying on the vehicle’s size to help ensure your safety. Instead, our engineers have
equipped Sequoia with an array of both active and passive safety measures. Active safety features,
such as Vehicle Stability Control (VSC),
1help you avoid trouble. Passive safety features come to your aid
in the event trouble proves unavoidable. Both help you breathe easier.
