2012 Sequoia Limited 4WD vs. 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe LTZ 4WD
SEPTEMBER 2011Updated 9/30/11
Look inside for detailed info about this summary, important safety information and disclaimers.
Top Sequoia Advantages Over Tahoe
Sequoia is Toyota’s full-size, do-it-all SUV. Assembled in Indiana with engines produced in Alabama, it appeals to family-oriented Americans who need to accommodate multiple passengers as well as their multiple active pursuits. These customers’ priorities are passenger room, cargo room and towing capability, which just happen to be Sequoia’s strengths.
The Limited grade builds on this solid platform, adding numerous comfort, convenience and styling enhancements to balance Sequoia’s high-end function with exceptional form.
Some Sequoia Limited customers cross shop it with the Chevrolet Tahoe LTZ. It’s a worthy competitor in what has become—especially in this era of high gasoline prices—an increasingly competitive market segment.
This Edge compares these two vehicles, highlighting Sequoia’s many strong points. Be sure to watch the Sequoia vs. Tahoe Edge Live video for even more useful information.

20I2 SEQUOIA LIMITED vs. 20I2 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ
Chevrolet offers the Tahoe in three grades: LS, LT and LTZ. Each share the same powertrain—a 5.3-liter V8 engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. Besides an automatic locking differential that’s available as an option on the LS and standard on LT and LTZ, a richer mix of comfort and convenience features sets the grades apart. For customers who have their eye on Sequoia Limited, the only grade that can keep pace is the LTZ.
Here’s a list of some of this model’s key standard features.

More value down the road
Sequoia may also be the better value down the road, based on residual values projected by Automotive Lease Guide (ALG)1 for 2011 models. This can translate into lower monthly lease payments or more equity when trading in a new model. Sequoia also has the edge when it comes to cost of ownership, based on IntelliChoice’s2 five-year projections for 2011 models.

� FULL-SIZE ROOMINESS
More passenger room
Sequoia has more room for occupants, especially in the first and third row of seats. And the second-row seats slide and recline.
More cargo room
Fold down Sequoia’s second- and third-row seats and you have access to far more cargo space that what’s available on Tahoe. And Sequoia’s cargo space is more user-friendly. The power third-row seat reclines fully to create a flat storage surface. And Sequoia has flaps that bridge the gap between the second- and third-row seats. Tahoe doesn’t offer these convenience features.

More convenient storage
Sequoia’s thoughtful design incorporates more cupholders and more and larger storage areas for small items. Take, for example: a compartment for storing sunglasses; a dual glove box; in-door cubbies for the front- and second-row passengers; and storage options for both passengers in the third-row seat.

More power
The combination of a bigger engine and a more advanced double-overhead-cam design gives Sequoia a significant power advantage. And technologies such as Electronically Controlled automatic Transmission with intelligence (ECT-i) and auto limited-slip rear differential help to put all of that power to optimum use.

More towing power
In standard configuration, Sequoia can tow4 significantly more than Tahoe. And Sequoia has more ground clearance, an important advantage when going off road.
More comfortable ride
The rugged Sequoia is also refined, with an exceptional ride quality that benefits from the SUV’s configuration, suspension technology and fully boxed frame.
