This is what Toyota has done with the all-new 2022 Tundra, which we previewed in a Texas-based drive program last week. With choices of gasoline or a gasoline-electric (hybrid) engine, rear-wheel (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), the 2022 Tundra gives buyers multiple options of power and fueleconomy. Fueleconomy: TBD.

.& It only stands to reason that the largest vehicles in a lineup, those vehicles for which fueleconomy has never been the sole focus, should be among the last to see battery power. While the full-sized Tundra offers the choice between a standard turbo V-6 and hybridization, this 2023 Toyota Sequoia is hybrid only. .&
We will do a full Road Test in the coming months, reviewing the Sequoia in detail, including real world fueleconomy.

The look works better on the outside than it does on the Tundra – and better on the Sequoia’s outside than its inside. Fueleconomy checks in at 19/22/20 for all four-wheel-drive Sequoias and 21/24/22 for all two-wheel-drive versions.
