The 2020 Toyota Sequoia comes with rear wheel drive, and four wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 6-speed shiftable automatic.New TRD Pro trim level for 2020.New suspension adds off-road capability.Updated interior tech (Apple CarPlay and Android Auto).

Pros

Flexible seating arrangement allows for up to eight passengers
Respectable off-road capability for a big SUV

Cons
Even among large SUVs, fuel economy is poor
Audio controls and front central cupholders are hard to reach
The touchscreen is small and outdated

The 2020 Sequoia lineup receives several updates. The biggest addition is the new off-road-ready TRD Pro model that's outfitted with a lifted suspension and other add-ons to conquer unruly roads and trails. Also showcased on other Toyota products such as the Tacoma pickup truck and the 4Runner SUV, the TRD-tuned version is much more than just an appearance package. The rest of the Sequoia lineup also receives long-awaited infotainment features, including standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability as well as a mobile hotspot.

Pros
Third row is actually comfortable, all driver assists are standard, iron-clad reliability from Toyota.

Cons
Drives like a pickup truck, worst-in-class interior quality, new tech can't hide old bones.

Pros
Wide palette of body styles, powertrains, trims
GLE Coupe, for the well-to-do contrarian

The AMG GLE 43 is slightly more powerful, increasing engine output from 362 horsepower to 385 hp. Otherwise, the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is unchanged for 2018.

PROS
Multiple available powertrains make each model distinct
Interior is quiet, upscale and roomy
Abundant list of standard safety, tech and luxury features
AMG variants are seriously quick

CONS
Not many places to store small personal items
Punishing ride on AMG models, with little benefit to handling
Ride quality with the standard suspension isn't as comfy as we expect
Base V6's acceleration is merely adequate
