Two SUVs, but completely different in all significant aspects: powertrain, horsepower, fuel economy, maximum occupancy, model year, starting price, ground shadow size, and height. First of all, the 2014 Toyota Sequoia is priced $6,650 lower compared to the base MSRP of the 2016 Volkswagen Touareg Diesel, which is newer by two model years. Also, the 2014 Sequoia has a more powerful engine and gets 9.5 mpg less than the 2016 Touareg Diesel. In addition, not only Sequoia is slightly larger, but it's also taller than the Touareg Diesel. And then, the Toyota Sequoia seats three more passengers than the Volkswagen Touareg Diesel. Among similarities is the body structure.
