Battery pack under the floor. That is why I didn't buy a Sequoia. What is interesting is the third row will make that hump even higher when the seats are folded. Much less leg room also. Hello shelf system! There must be another way...
I read somewhere that there would be a third row in the hybrid. That said, I hope you’re right, because it would pretty much be useless.I doubt we'll see any third row option in the Hybrid models.
Where were these photos taken? I was hoping that the hybrid was a 6 cylinder.Toyota is weird, first the Sequoia now the GX550h. Can't they just do something better than this..
Even though I never considered the hybrid GX but this half ass job still kinda offended me...

No surprise, just confirmation, as Toyota/Lexus had previously released a video/graphic showing the GX550h drivetrain.Good find! I'm a little disappointed, as I was hoping for the V-6 hybrid powertrain. Looks like the same engine as the Land Cruiser.

May I ask what you found to be the disadvantages of a hybrid drivetrain? I keep looking at hybrid & thinking it’s the best of all worlds. Especially since I have zero plans to go full electric.I currently drive a Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid and I have to say they did a great job packaging it up in the rear cargo area. You can't even tell there's a battery back there. But because they lowered the battery, they are unable to fit a hitch to the frame. Not a biggie as 99% of people would never tow with a Cayenne, but it does limit bike rack options.
As good as the porsche is, I probably wouldn't buy a hybrid again. I'm looking forward to a gas only powertrain.
I’m really impressed with the technology. However, here are some negatives.May I ask what you found to be the disadvantages of a hybrid drivetrain? I keep looking at hybrid & thinking it’s the best of all worlds. Especially since I have zero plans to go full electric.
