Toyota Sequoia vs. Volvo XC90 Review

Utility
The Toyota Sequoia is a better choice than the Volvo XC90 when it comes to transporting cargo, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of cargo or big beasts. The Toyota Sequoia will very likely prove friendlier than the XC90 for those of you with frequent kid-cargo. Towing is quite a bit more the Sequoia's forte than it is the Volvo's.

Performance
With its super low horsepower-to-weight ratio, the Volvo XC90 will knock you back into your seat when you step on the gas.

Dimensions
The Toyota Sequoia is markedly more ponderous than the XC90. Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Toyota Sequoia than the Volvo XC90 because of its more capacious tank. The Toyota Sequoia rides lower than the Volvo XC90, which is a good thing for its center of gravity and ease of access. The Volvo XC90 and the Toyota compete for the same parking spaces.

Convenience
The Volvo XC90's fuel tank will need to be replenished more often than the unit in the Sequoia.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs roughly the same to get the Toyota to the dealership as the Volvo XC90. Regarding gas mileage, the Volvo XC90 has the Toyota beat. In terms of MSRP, the Toyota Sequoia doesn't cost much less than the Volvo XC90.

Handling
The Sequoia has considerably wider tires than the XC90. Remember that wider tires could look and feel better, while smaller tires might improve gas mileage. With their similar turning circles, the Volvo XC90 and the Toyota Sequoia doubtless handle approximately the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Volvo XC90's engine is slightly smaller than the Toyota Sequoia's, but not terribly so. The Toyota Sequoia has no lessons to learn in terms of pickup from the Volvo.

Comfort
Taller drivers will substantially enjoy the extra head room in the Toyota Sequoia's front cabin compared to the Volvo XC90. The Sequoia offers more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Volvo XC90 does.

Overview
The basic after-sale protection that comes with the Toyota Sequoia isn't quite as generous as the XC90's.
