New Toyota Sequoia Promotional Picture Unveiled

Toyota Motor has released a promotional photo of the next-generation Toyota Sequoia full-size frame SUV. The teaser captures a fragment of the rear of the car – you can see the glazing element and the rear pillar of the body.

Already from these fragments it is clear that the Toyota Sequoia will have something in common with the exterior of the Land Cruiser 300 – a similar solution for the rear side window billowing upwards and the rear wing plastic.
