Upgraded TRD Pro Performance

The 2027 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro is also getting some attention for the new model year. The main changes focus on off road performance, rugged styling, and capability.

Toyota has equipped the TRD Pro with newly designed, Sequoia tuned FOX enhanced QS3 shocks. These adjustable shocks are specifically tuned to improve stability, feel, and adjustability when traveling over rough terrain. Other TRD Pro updates and features include:

A Bold New Look With Rugged Purpose

Toyota hasn’t forgotten about styling. The redesigned 2027 Toyota Sequoia gets an upgraded exterior that gives the full size SUV a more sophisticated appearance without taking away from its rugged personality.

The refreshed design placed greater emphasis on horizontal elements, helping give the Sequoia a strong and stable stance. Toyota has also redesigned the front end to create a more tailored, premium look while maintaining the bold presence expected from a full size SUV. Key exterior design updates include:

• Redesigned front end with a more refined and modern appearance.
• Updated grille and bumper treatments that enhance the Sequoia’s rugged styling.
• Reworked bright chrome accents on select grades for a more balanced, contemporary look.
• New rectangular fog lights integrated directly into the front bumper.

The result is a 2027 Toyota Sequoia that combines upscale styling with rugged SUV character, allowing it to look just as comfortable pulling up to dinner as it does heading out for a weekend Clermont adventure.

Next Generation Toyota Audio Multimedia

There’s plenty of new technology inside the 2027 Toyota Sequoia. For the new model year, the Sequoia receives Toyota’s newest generation Audio Multimedia System, developed in North America through a partnership between Toyota Motor North America and Toyota Connected North America

Integrated Drive Recorder Technology

Another big tech upgrade for the 2027 Toyota Sequoia is the introduction of a standard built in Drive Recorder Dash Cam.

When enabled, the system can use the SUV’s exterior cameras, including the front and rear cameras or Panoramic View Monitor when equipped, to record 20 second video clips.

These clips can be generated for both manually activated and triggered events, essentially integrating dash cam functionality directly into the vehicle.

Upgraded Digital Key Technology

Toyota is also upgrading the available Digital Key functionality in the 2027 Toyota Sequoia.

In addition to accessing Digital Key through the Toyota app, Clermont drivers can now manage the features using the native digital wallet on a compatible smart device, including supported Apple, Google, and Samsung digital wallets. The system can allow Clermont drivers to:

• Lock their Sequoia
• Unlock their Sequoia
• Start the vehicle
• Operate their supported vehicle
• Share Digital Key permissions with up to five additional drivers
• Manage shared Digital Keys directly through their digital wallet

Once Digital Key has been enabled in a compatible wallet, near field communication technology can also provide vehicle access for a period of time even if the driver’s device has run out of battery. Digital Key requires an active Remote Connect trial or subscription and is dependent on the 5G network.

Improved Exterior Lighting

Toyota has also upgraded the 2027 Toyota Sequoia’s exterior lighting, to improve both functionality and visibility.

The grille mounted LED light bar now offers brighter output, helping provide additional illumination when the sun goes down.

Available RIGID fog lights provide even more lighting in low visibility situations, while available front recovery hooks add another functional off road feature and contribute to the Sequoia’s rugged exterior styling.
