Toyota’s elder statesman has a few new tricks up its sleeve for 2018. This is the first-ever Sequoia TRD sport. It’s been a decade since this 2nd generation Sequoia was introduced, built in Indiana as a structural twin to the Tundra pickup…another one of Toyota’s body-on-frame geriatrics. From a sales perspective, it’s at the bottom of the segment and within the brand, only the astronomically priced Land Cruiser sells in lower numbers on the non-car side. But in this SUV world, Toyota has reason to believe that a special edition can reinvigorate sales. And that’s how we’ve arrived at this Sequoia TRD Sport; short for Toyota Racing Development.
