2027 Toyota Sequoia Trailhunter: Off-Road Package, Price and Release Date

© pressroom.toyota.com

Toyota has updated the Sequoia and added a new Trailhunter package with an Old Man Emu suspension, a locking rear differential and underbody protection. The automaker hasn’t named a price for the 2027 Sequoia yet, but it did reveal the headline change — the Trailhunter package, based on the SR5 grade. Trailhunter includes an upgraded Old Man Emu suspension, 265/70R18 Michelin LTX Trail tires, extra underbody skid plates and front recovery hooks. The electronics add Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control and a locking rear differential. The package doesn’t replace the TRD Pro: that trim stays in the lineup alongside SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition and Capstone.

The front end gets a new grille, bumpers and rectangular fog lights. The bigger change is inside: a 14-inch touchscreen is now standard. The infotainment system supports 5G connectivity over AT&T’s network, and a built-in dash cam saves 20-second clips from the exterior cameras. Owners can share the digital key with up to five drivers through Apple, Google or Samsung wallets.

Toyota will announce full specifications this fall. The current Sequoia’s i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain, built around a twin-turbo V6, makes around 437 hp and 790 Nm, pairs with a 10-speed automatic and can tow up to 4.3 tons. The 2026 model’s official price starts at $65,725.

issues and service campaigns have previously been reported for the current Toyota Sequoia. The new Trailhunter improves off-road readiness but doesn’t solve the question of servicing the complex hybrid system outside the official dealer network.

Production of the 2027 Sequoia starts this fall. Until pricing is announced, Trailhunter remains a package with clear equipment but an unknown premium.
