2:45 The heated steering wheel button is on the left because it's a feature only for the driver, whereas the heated seats are on the center because even the passenger should be able to turn it on for themselves.
The one time Toyota brings on ambient lighting and they screw it up by citing 'safety concerns' while driving... One of the reasons toyota/lexus interiors have been lacking behind in the segment is the lack of ambient lighting. Even with the new generation Lexus models like the RX/NX that have multicolor ambient lighting, as soon as you put the car in drive it immediately dims to a point where you don't even know its there. Hope this could get fixed in a software update. Take a note from Mercedes Toyota/Lexus......
Compared to my 03 sequoia limited its pricey😅 , however my 03 has 368k on it still rolling too. Tell Toyota I'll buy a new one one day. 20 years later and I'm still loving my Toyota.
I have that same screen on my -22 Tundra 1794. Nice, but also a bit distracting. Lately I have it turned off, easily done in setting, turned back on with a tap. Love that Tundra though! Have not noticed "the bad turning radius".
Yeah and majority of these don’t even have an adaptive suspension because it’s packaged in with the rear load leveling option that’s damn near impossible to find.
There is a way to turn off the augmented sound. You would have to. Take it to a dealer and have to connected to a computer to turn it so it can have that quiet feel to it.
It's interesting that my phone turns on a blue light filter at night to reduce eye strain. All I see are blue lights on this interior at night. My '02 Sequoia uses green and is easier on the eyes.
Agreed. The LX is similar but smaller inside and doesn’t have a pano roof or fully digital driver instrument cluster. Just lacking all around for the price.
I looked up the owner manual online, and the only setting on the ambient interior lights is the duration. Maximum time is 30s. Off is an option as well.
Hey Kirk, awesome review, I really like these nighttime drives. I think the sequoia is the best-looking full-size truck second only to the GMC, but they both have the top spot IMO. How would you describe the ride in this on a scale of 1-10. I have been driven in an LX with the hydraulic suspension and it was so freaking comfortable but it just doesn't have enough space, how does the sequoia compare to the LX in terms of ride quality
I like Sequoia 😘 more than Lexus LX600: ride quality, exterior design, interior design, front dash design, and size. If I could spend over $100K for an SUV, I would choose the flagship Range Rover. But I love 🥰the 2023 Sequoia. Night review, love everything, love all.
@Kirk Kreifels Steering seems to be ⚡️Electric Assist, and probably why turning/turning radius requires so little input/resistance Would much rather not have to fight the steering wheel in such a Big SUV 🙌🔥
The New Toyota sequoia Full size SUV Interior Ambient lighting should be able to still on if you Choose , and still should Offer a V8 engine Powertrain as a option !!!
Saw one (red) a couple nights ago 😍 I absolutely love the new styling 🥺 Miss the V8

Pretty cool truck, wish they offered an ICE only model. I do love how they kept the live rear axle instead of IRS.
It's not a truck it's a suv
@@tito2ronit’s quite literally a truck its built on the frame of a tundra
try mood light button on your roof to turn it on for all the time the ambient interior lights let us know !!
This actually looks cool and nice

Thank you Kirk! Finally we have night time reviews. No more waiting for owners to post night time car videos.
Thank you for your reviews. I agreed with you, it would be nicer if the ambient light is on all the time.
Hey man congratulations! Your video popped up on my google man nice!
I'm pretty sure there is a ambient lighting button up near the rear view mirror by the map light where you can turn it on again
I would not be surprised if you can go into vehicle settings on the touchscreen and find an option to keep the ambient lighting on.
I looked, couldn't find it
Kirk Kreifels Friend yes I would like to see more night time reviews as well on these vehicles 💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👍
Kirk Kreifels Friend keep up the great work 🇺🇸🇺🇸😃😃💪💪👍👍👍👍
Night review?..... Brilliant!
Love the night reviews for sure 👍

Great review!
It looks like a tank! I would opt for a low-mileage, last-gen V8 Sequoia. 👍

Approach lights , massage seats, air ride missing at this price point. That ambient lighting turning off is pretty sad.

Hi Kirk!
I love the nighttime reviews…please continue them..peace
JimmyUSAF 🇺🇸✈️🙏🌎👍⭐️😇🚖🚔🇮🇹
Great car! So big!
It looks good
If I spent a lot of money on an SUV, I’d strongly consider this one. However, the price tag and fuel costs are hard to swallow.

Still think Lexus should make their own version … Ms make the current LX into an off road focused SUV
Agreed. The LX is similar but smaller inside and doesn’t have a pano roof or fully digital driver instrument cluster. Just lacking all around for the price.
Blue Button colours are very hard to see.
I looked up the owner manual online, and the only setting on the ambient interior lights is the duration. Maximum time is 30s. Off is an option as well.
Yep. That's what I found too in the settings
@Kirk Kreifels It is a shame. It would be helpful when the whole fam is out in the night.

I highly doubt the ride quality of the Sequoia is better than the LX600

VERY NICE THIS BIG BABY
a very good Toyota car 👍
The ambient lighting in my Camry stays on when I’m out of park but It does dim ever so slightly
When are you going to test drive Grand Highlander?
Two weeks
2nd From Pakistan 🇵🇰
American paki here. How are you guys liking the new Land Cruiser?
Let’s get to that 200k subs!
Sequoia looks way better than overpriced LX 600
A base model Sequoia starts at 60k and you call the LX overpriced? At least the LX doesn’t force a hybrid on you.
Cool
There has to be a way to keep the ambient lights on. Smh epic fail if we can't.
If you’re shopping for an LX600, just get this instead. It’s better looking, nicer inside, more features and a lot more power
It's not nicer inside. Not close. It's louder and rides rough compared to LX
@@KirkKreifels well it may ride worse but it has more space and more features and a lot more power
Hilarious that this is so expensive yet still rides like a base 4 runner
The ride quality definitely depends on which suspension you get on the Capstone.
Another dang car we can’t get in our area.🤦♂️
Drove one in my dream and woke up sad. Lol
👍💖👍
Wow Toyota isn't playing
😂. They aren’t playing because they got played hard by the competition
“Its a big one” 😅
big wheels equals ruff choppy ride
Not on the competition. My 22 Yukon Denali rode great. But ride quality on this definitely depends which suspension you get on the Capstone, though.
Sounds like miss a Toyota!
The whole car is a miss
15.2 MPG? 🤥 terrible
that interior lighting looks meh... mediocre to be honest...
