Sequoia looks amazing inside and out
Regular gas , wireless charging , more rear seat leg room , more HP & torque , Pano roof , 52 to 64K LESS . Not even a choice . Somebody tell Lexus to give 2007 their dashboard back .
Also new LX exterior ugly as hell
Also the price point
Get an LX with 130k miles on it and its a home run man, I have a Sequoia now after having an LC and they aren’t close to the same class at all.
The integrated window sunshades on the sequoia are beyond dumb. Everyone tints their windows now in day. Useless feature. Should have put tvs instead

Excellent side-by-side comparison. Very informative, thank you!
Both are fantastic. I wish I could have own the 600. I think the 600 is the master of SUV. No SUV comes even close. I bet I can take a 600 up to a million miles like a breeze. Lexus/Toyota are nailing it more and more and more. All American SUV are a shame to those. Even German’s. Good job Lexus!!!!
Awesome comparison video! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Have to point out that the Land Cruiser (and by extension the LX) has legendary off roading capabilities. The Sequoia is more of a people mover. Also should note that the LX is still made in Japan while the Sequoia is coming out of Toyota’s Texas factory.
An extra locker and japan built shouldn't double the price.
@@JattAnmoli because america imported land cruiser and LX series from japan , so the tax make the higher price
@@pemainmobile8007 tax makes it 40-50k more?
@@JattAnmoli but when compared to America, the import car tax is low when compared to the prices offered in some Asian countries, why? because in parts of asia the car tax is around 125%-200% (especially the luxury class) so the price of a car in America is cheap, take for example if we buy a car from America at a price of $100k then at least we have to prepare around $200k-300k
There is always a "cost" or value for things, and yes some people may be willing to pay that extra cost.... but ..let's be honest. Is it really worth that crazy extra premium price because something is made in Japan?
2) Sure, the Lexus is more offroad capable, but why or who takes such expensive Suv's offroading ....and how often would you do it ? It would be cheaper to buy the Seq and buy a used 4runner/Tacoma/Tundra with the money you saved, modify it a little, and use that for offroading. Why would one risk damaging an expensive suv worth over 120k if something happened while offroading.
Was so close to getting a Denali because it would part time pull my 8,000lbs boat. Sometimes I need 4x4 low to get out of the boat ramp.
Getting this Sequoia for my wife after we try one on. She’s 4-10. Wish me luck.
I just want to ask a question, which of the 2 cars featured in the video is better/more comfortable and spacious to a 6'4 250 pound guy ( a big guy ). Which out of the 2 is better and is more spacious???
@@Konig91939 I am 6’4 225 and am very comfy in our LX. I imagine I would be equally comfortable in the Sequoia too.
@Ryan Pierret wow 🌹👌 almost the exact description I said 🤣🤣🤣 ( may god give you good health through the rest of your life, "Aimen" ) and thank you, brother 😊 🌹
Excellent comparison!
Hi guys , this great channel. Im so glad you guys did a sound test. I was a passenger in a 2012 Toyota sequoia and the feeling was great , I felt like I was hoovering over the road.i can't wait to drive and own a 2023 Toyota capstone sequoia. Thanks.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy the channel!
Great comparison video.,!!!
Thanks.,,
Thanks guys👍🏻
I love your professional camera work ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
Awesome vlog👌
I'd like to see the GX 460 vs a base Sequoia.
The Sequoia is really value for money.....Sequoia all days everyday
I believe many people would choose this Seqoia over LX600 if it was offered in their country, same story with the 4runner.
Seqoia
Sequoia is honestly miles better than the Lexus 600 series itself cause it feels more luxurious than a lexus itself now and feels more of a Family hauler and great for camping and long road trips.
Sequoia is great for taking the soccer team to the mall. LX600 is great to traverse any terrain in the world.
This video i needed! 💪
Good job in presenting the comparison 👌
Thanks! 😁
I really miss the 5.7L 3UR-FE V8 on both of these models so far, I really miss the sound it makes when you first start up the car. Even though the previous V8 sounded amazing, the gas mileage was atrocious on the latter.
Once Lexus/Toyota stops charging the markups on these two models, I will be happy to buy these too. I'd also want a 2nd gen Tundra too. (with the 3UR-FE V8) and the GX460 (with the 1UR-FE V8)
i own the new Tundra and had the old... i DONT miss the V8 at all... far more better driving and usable power over the old... get over it
Good luck for the up charge… my local just called me 2 days ago and wanted me to coughing out another $30K on top of $126K for the LX600.
@@SantanKGhey1234 far more better lol…you’re obviously a cerebral midget. The V8 in my 2019 TLC will still be going strong when the turbo dies in the V6
I've got the IS500 with the 2UR-GSE. The sound is amazing.
Great job guys! Would be fantastic if you were to compare the two off-road. We know that there are a lot of shared components between these new vehicles but the Lexus has a lot of those Land Cruiser off-road bits that may be able to get your family out of harms way when needing to overland or when the going gets rough.
These rigs aren’t going anywhere near off road. Those days are gone.
@@johnf6267 Agreed! But Lexus gave it the off-road chops. Let's see them in action against the Sequoia!
Amazing comparison!
Thanks!
Great comparison, thanks for putting it together. I just finished driving these two vehicles over the last two days to possibly replace our 200 series LC. The LX is amazing, but I have to be honest, there were more wow factors for me with the Sequoia, especially for the 28K less price tag. Kind of interesting. I think the Sequoia's dash/interior is better thought out. The LX top screen seems like an afterthought. The growl of the Sequoia (however fake it may be) is fun and yes, you certainly can feel the extra torque in the Sequoia. The Sequoia's rear glass hatch is an awesome benefit for any dog owner (which we are). Sequoia also as the foot-wave rear hatch opener that the LX didn't. I really want to like the LX so much better, but sheesh, that Sequoia makes it a very hard argument! Regards and thanks again.
Thanks for watching and good luck deciding!
Sequoia and lx seems to have their interiors mixed with each other.
I love both, and I wish I can effort to buy any of these two.
Me too So expensive I have no money to buy I'm poor Hahaha ''''
I am reading this comment on my bicycle 😂
Great video
Thanks!
My 22 highlander is going right back to the dealer next year that damm sequía is amazing 😍😍😍
One of your best videos. Well done. The Sequoia is my choice. And I'm a Lexus owner. I noticed the piano black on the LX will never stay clean. I wonder which one you guys would pick after the comparison?
Very very good comparison 👏 👍 👌
Thanks!
If I could afford to buy one I could definitely have gone for the LX because of the full time 4WD and the diesel engine option.
I think you guys missed an important feature, Drive Train, the LX is full time 4WD
All the dealers in my area are selling Sequoias with mark ups of $30k making the Capstone around $110k same as LX600 msrp. I did find a Lexus dealership selling at msrp. You most as well get the LX600
I bought one, no markup. I recommend calling around. Got it MSRP. Cheers.
We get the Landcruiser & LX600 in Australia. But the Lx600 Fsport is $180,000 versus the LC300 Sahara ZX at $150,000.
Finally brothers, the comparison that I've been awaiting! I'm just going to say it: Unless you're the ultimate LX fan or desire to be chauffered, get the Toyota, especially considering the quantum leap that the Sequoia has become.
The Toyota is roomier(always has been), offers greater power, has a more advanced gauge cluster(the Lexus system dates back to 2010), the screens in the Lexus seem dated compared to the Toyota, has a wireless phone charger up front(what in the heck was Lexus thinking in cheapening out this bad), has a panoramic roof, has more advanced exterior lighting with the dynamic signals, power running boards(spare me the offroading argument for the LX since 99.9% will never see nothing more severe than a speed bump at Bergdorf), etc. Lexus even put the same manual sunshades from the Toyota in a supposed ultra-luxury model.
Sure, the Lexus' hydraulic suspension and Mark Levinson sound system are excellent, but not an extra $50K nice. I also noticed that you brothers heads were bobbing between the shifts on the acceleration run in the Lexus versus the Toyota. That is very un-luxury like. You're not supposed to feel the shifts. Finally, the new Range Rover I-6 offers the same power of the Lexus and its interior is world's better.(the Lexus actually looks dated compared to the Toyota, especially the dash area). Yes, I know there are those that will say "but the reliability" of the Lexus, and that is true. But if it is "luxury" you're after, the Lexus wouldn't be my first choice.
The LX is overpriced for what's a low effort facelift on the new Landcruiser 300. It might be a better value proposition in a few years if they upgrade and correct the right items, but I wouldn't hold my breath as Lexus is the slowest in the industry when it comes to making changes.
Hi, I agreed with you! These 4 things I hated the most for LX.
1. The double screens....the information screen look like a last minute slap on so they can go home that day.
2. The Gauge Cluster should have one nice big screen instead of separate for the Temperature & Fuel gauges. What a wasted of real estate there.
3. Rear seats manual Window Shades wtf? And also manual Sunroof shade.
4. Rear hatch not a clamshell or have open glass. These are deal breaker....
sales number will be horrible just like the LS500.
I really dunno LX is still seems like its chasing its landcruiser golden days instead they should build true G wagon competitor and its not even close. I dont even think it would be more reliable than g wagon cuz of the new turbo and 10 speed.
@@dexterrr9163 eh... no offense but a lot of people who don't know much about cars talk about turbos as if they're some big liability. modern turbos last 150--200k miles and pay for their replacement 3-4 times over in fuel savings over a v8 in that span of time anyway. the G-wagon interior quality is pure dogshit tho (like most mercedes). I've looked at a few of them 3-4-5 years old and the interior is peeling, the plastics all over squeak, and the leather wears like shit. I was really surprised how bad the G-wagon interior looked after a few years, esp vs a Lexus that will look almost identical to brand new 5-10 years later.
@@sly9263 i agree with you, and the most of the luxury cars built quality is crap. Even mclaren is poorly built. For general population G wagon is top of the class luxury vehicle. Becoz Its way powerful than lexus, outer design is much better too. For me paying 30-40k more just to get better "quality interior" which isnt really the case cuz lx tech falls way behind than even the toyota ones is absurd to me. I choose toyota car/trucks over lx anyday
Not having a single trim that offers full time 4WD is a deal breaker for me on the Sequoia. For those who live in the rust belt states, it matters.
Awesome video, guys! I love the LX, my dream suv, but the Sequoia seems like a much better value for this platform. The interior on the Sequoia looks much more modern and roomier than the dark crowded LX. Also, 87 octane vs. 91, more power, better fuel economy, the list goes on
For me the only reason to have the Lexus is if I was totally crazy for four-wheel driving and at the same time needed a large nice looking vehicle. The Sequoia looks better and is more updated and good enough off-road for the likes of me! So there's my choice
My only reason to have the LX is the ML sound system. I wish the Sequoia had that option too
These heavy suvs should be offered in a twin turbo V6 diesel or V8 turbo diesel because in SUVs torque and long range matters alot
I gonna perfur the Lexus LX600 for myself.
Great video, but I think there's a major thing most are missing. You really can't compare the two because they are diametrically different. With the LX600 think Range Rover...with the Sequoia think family hauler. I love what Lexus has done with the LX600, it's in a rare class with limited competition. If Cadillac is paying attention they must make a 2 door Escalade.
a 2 door escalade? neither one of these is 2 doors.
The Land cruiser we get in the Middle East with same engine delivers 650 NM of Torque, equivalent to 480 lbs ft of Torque.
Not a Toyota fan by any means but I am interested to see the comparison
Great video guys. I think the Cadillac wins this one for me. The air suspension looked super smooth.
Thank you!
Do what I did. I just got a 2020 Lexus LX 570 with 33,000'ish miles on it for $69,000 out the door. That is $57,000 cheaper and the vehicle is absolutely everything you would ever want and need. Even at 14 city and 16 highway you would have to drive 500,000 miles to break even because of that horrific $126K entry cost. It has all the bells and whistles you could ever want or need. It is incredibly powerful and an absolute pleasure to drive.
We bought the 2-row version and I am so glad I did because the third row eats up your carbo space.
That Sequoia key fob is a damn insult for a $78K+ vehicle!
Buying a house is more important than buying $124K vehicle, unless you are rich.
But regular middle class people need to be realistic.
I own a Land Cruiser and LX 470 (still have both 1997 and 2004 respectively). I am likely going to purchase either the Sequoia or LX 600 in the next twelve months. I am currently in a Porsche Cayenne Turbo and will be keeping it. I mention this because if I did not own this vehicle I might purchase the LX. This combined with the fact that I may be towing a Pebble Flow RV in the future gives the nod to the Sequoia. I just wish I could get that Mark Levinson audio but in exchange I like the pano moonroof. This review was excellent. Not a big fan of the Capstone white interior since I keep my cars forever. This review helped me save about $35k (I will buy some crazy Audeze headphones with that cash and let my wife drive). Kudos. Cheers.
More on the cargo areas please.
*Lexus & Toyota are any day better than over rated Ranger Rover!*
I had the sequoia capstone on deposit, but once they asked for $15k market adjustment I skipped on it. I would rather get a built in Japan Lexus lx600.
I bought one, no markup. I recommend calling aorund. I called about 5 dealers in my area, before I got one to take my deposit and put the order in at MSRP. Cheers.
Yeah, definitely check other dealerships. I have my money already down on a loaded Sequoia TRD Pro. My dealership is doing no markups on any of the trims, except TRD Pro (that guidance comes from Toyota Corp themselves to the dealers).
Other dealer wanted 25k down on the TRD Pro, but the dealer I found only wanted $4999. Easy sell for me. Check around your area, you might be surprised what you find 👍
@@luthariii7827 just got a call the other day saying only trd pro has the $15k markup. Capstone has no markup now.
Isn’t LX Sports has about $50K mark up? Lol
The Toyota is the clear winner! Now I just wish they made a 1794 interior (like the saddle brown leather from the special tundra) for the sequoia!
I love the both
The Sequoia is the luxury one here bob🙄 Buying the Lexus is you taking an L
Both are very nice vehicles, but I’d have to choose the LX. I wouldn’t go with the ultra luxury package however
All I can say is I wish Toyota had kept the 5.7L V8 and gave it the 10 speed transmission. No way will a high strung V6 have the reliability factor of the V8. Does Toyota really think that the Buyer handing over $80K-$128K is concerned about MPG. Just saying.
160k 30k markup for the ultra luxury
I love my 2017 LX 570, and my 2021 Camry SE AWD… in a Nutshell, Toyota Rocks😎.
Though I agree with the ratings, it is normal for Toyota to put out its newest additions then closely followed by Lexus. Given that, I imagine a new LX will be out in the next year or so that blows the Sequoia out of the water.
I had an LX600 for two weeks and then sold it. Because I saw my grandmother from this car, so old. From him, you can't feel that this is a technological era.
I also ordered a SEQUIA, which is expected to arrive this month, I don't know how long I will keep it. Toyota isn't very keen on being smart, and I like and rely on it a lot
I was never a fan of Lexus to begin with. I already have my money down on a loaded 2023 Sequoia TRD Pro. I see people commenting about markups, but my dealership is doing no markups on any of the trims, except TRD Pro (that guidance comes from Toyota Corp themselves to the dealers).
Other dealers wanted 25k-30k down on the TRD Pro, but the dealer I found only wanted $4999. Easy sell for me. Check around your area, you might be surprised what you find.
What’s the name of your dealership?
@@bknewyork247 Heartland in WA state.
biggest drawback with new sequoia is that it loses full time 4wd ability. It is jow only part time 4wd. This is huge dealbreaker in northern climates where in cities the road condition varies and you’d need to constantly switch between 4hi-2hi in sequoia
So what your saying is that it has to be mechanically wound by hand, outdoors with no assist.. or is it just the press of a button?
I would pick the Lexus because of all the luxury. Nice comparison
What luxury? 😂 The sequoia has more luxury and tech features. And a lot more power
Me don’t care about luxury but wanted an affordable one and looks nicer which is Sequoia😅
I must you have money
And AC
Are you a woman?
I agree with the scoring, sequoia ftw
Thanks for the review , its hard to choose though I think may be the Sequoia am not sure , well may be in 2 to 5 years if I get Lucky I can get a used one ,for now am going to have to Stick and choose the Honda 2016 CRV that I own 😂😅 so wish me luck while I keep dreaming , one more thing the price I will have to pay for a used one here in the Dominican Republic would be the same amount as if I bought a Brand New One in the States.
Looks good. Ill stick to my Corolla
I would pick the Lexus
These are like houses on wheels at these prices
So here are my opinions Mason and Drew and for all the people I would buy the Sequoia for a daily driver for the digital gauge cluster and for the very luxurious interior however I wish to Capstone would offer more power combos because I've not a big fan of the white and black seats now if I had three or four kids I would definitely buy the Lexus because of the flat floor and more cargo space but overall they're both very very nice vehicles but I think I would get the Sequoia
For the life of me I cant understand why They would give the Toyota more power than the Lexus. I do like the Capstone, but white and black seats in a no go for me. Also. for the MPG that they are getting in these V6s. They should have just kept the bullet proof 5.7 that mostly everyone loved.
Dealership experience is a major thumb on the scale for Lexus, but I still don’t think it’s worth it. LX600 is an exercise in a vehicle with an identity crisis.
Not fair competition at all , Lexus LX600 way better made and globally known better than sequoia
The Lexus IS an off road beast and a beautiful road car. I’ll take the Lexus.
I am hearing a significant hum from the sakoya. lx is really quite.
I go with the Sequoia without a doubt
Off - road capabilities not compared , why? Suspension, etc ..
“It pulls so hard” omg rofl.
if i have the money i will choose the Lexus ! i feel more prestige than than the sequoia. but if im on a budget sure toyota my second choice
I’ll buy the Sequoia because it looks nicer outside Lexus I hated the double screens 😂
The double screens is a pathetic!
Not sure what Lexus was thinking when they designed LX back then…….
Sequoia with that large inch display makes more sense than the Lexus with dual screens...
To clarify, when you said the Lexus didn’t have a wireless charger upfront, that is only true on the ultra luxury due to the focus on the rear seat passenger where the wireless charger is located in the back. The lower trims have the wireless charger in the front.
i love my 4runner’s pleather
What’s with the plastic thing sticking out below the Sequoia’s front bumper? Looks weird.
Air dam.
They need more trunk room with the 3rd row up!
I would love to see the toyota Landcruiser
I would get the sequoia trd pro
8:53 for having a glass panel that can individually pop open, the Toyota got a point??
why though
It’s obvious that LX is very quiet in terms of cabin noise.
The gauge cluster of the LX looks so old, particularly the analog dials on the left and right sides. They are not just analog, they also look low-end. A Hyundai Elantra Limited gauge cluster is better than the LX.
Sequoia seems like an updated LX and it's slightly cheaper overall, the LX hasn't been updated for a while too
You didn't rate their offroad capability at all. It would have been nice to see that. I'm not talking about boulder-crawling. But an unpaved national forest road is a place I might want to take either vehicle. Also, why should the same engine work with regular gas on one vehicle and require premium in the other? That doesn't make sense to me.
I'm not a fan of the infotainment displays looking like aftermarket add-ons glued onto the dash. Neither has done a good job making them look integrated.
Honestly there is no comparision beteewn these 2 machines. The Lexus LX600 is 2 thousand years way up from Sequoia.
12:33 that rattling sound in a brand new vehicle? Unless it’s the luggage inside that is rattling heavily. I hate it that sound.
great review, however the Rear glass doesn’t pop on the sequoia. They removed it, not sure why.
They also nixed the split tailgate on the LX. Both of those features were very useful and loved by those who own the vehicles, me included. You lose a lot of capability by removing them.
The rear glass rolled down on the previous gen Sequoia. The new third gen flips up like the new Lexus GX, while the LX (and LC 300 for everyone else) no longer has the split tailgate
the third row set up on the sequoia is the most baffling thing ive ever seen. it renders not one the 3rd row useless, but also the whole cargo area is destroyed by it.
You can’t take a point away because you’re comparing the only Lexus trim at of 5 that has only 4 seats. You’re right, Lexus does not have an air suspension, it’s hydraulic, which is better. As for off road capability- Lexus can add an additional 7 inches to the active height control on top of its 8inch ground clearance, while sequoia is fixed at a 8 inches and can only be lowered. If you have the money to buy a Lexus, you’re probably not concerned about mpg and premium fuel. With the Lexus, you get what you pay for. Sequoia is the poor man’s version of the LX.
I don't like the way they implemented the touchscreen in the Lexus. It looks like an after thought.
I like more sequiao. The biggee screen and simple interior caught my eyes :)
Seq by faar even styling and trd pro package is much better than lx's promising offroad capabilities
Lexus all the way. Moved from Jaguar Land Rover to Lexus mainly because of the reliability, resale value and excellent customer service of Lexus.
I wish the Sequoia offered an OverTrail model
M'y favory is Toyota sequoia 💪🏿💯🔥🥇🏆❤️
