What is the range of the Toyota Sequoia full tank?

A full tank on a Toyota Sequoia ranges roughly from about 390 miles on older V8 models to about 528 miles on the current hybrid-powered version, depending on driving conditions and configuration.


Understanding the Sequoia’s range requires looking at the fuel tank size and the vehicle’s fuel economy. The range isn’t fixed; it varies with engine choice, transmission, drivetrain, and how you drive—city stops, highway cruising, payload, climate control use, and even tire size can all shift the number.


Model-by-model range estimates


Current generation: i-Force MAX hybrid (2023–present)


The latest Sequoia uses a 24.0-gallon fuel tank and EPA ratings of about 21 mpg in the city, 24 mpg on the highway, for a combined around 22 mpg. This yields an estimated range of roughly 528 miles per full tank under typical mixed driving.


Real-world mileage can vary based on speed, terrain, load, and climate control use. Highway driving with light payloads generally produces closer to the higher end of the range, while frequent stops in city driving or heavy loads reduce it.


Older generations: 5.7L V8 Sequoia (pre-2023)


Models built with the 5.7-liter V8 typically came with a ~26-gallon tank and an EPA combined rating near 15 mpg. That combination results in an approximate range of about 390 miles per tank in mixed driving.


As with the newer model, actual range depends on whether you’re mostly on highways or city streets, how you’re carrying cargo, and other factors like climate control and terrain.



    Below are representative ranges by powertrain based on capacity and EPA figures:


  • Current Sequoia i-Force MAX hybrid (24.0 gal tank): ~528 miles per tank (EPA ~22 mpg combined).

  • Older Sequoia with 5.7L V8 (≈26 gal tank): ~390 miles per tank (EPA ~15 mpg combined).


Note: These figures are intended as practical estimates. Real-world range will vary with driving style, weather, payload, tire condition, and maintenance.


Summary


In short, the Sequoia’s full-tank range depends heavily on the powertrain. The modern i-Force MAX hybrid version offers around 520–530 miles per tank, while older V8-equipped Sequoias typically deliver about 390 miles per tank. For planning long trips, it’s wise to account for mixed driving and potential variations in fuel economy.
