2026 Toyota Sequoia 1794 Edition: Bristol Buyers Guide
Quick Answer: The 2026 Sequoia 1794 Edition
The 1794 Edition is the Sequoia with a Texas-ranch personality, priced from $82,550 MSRP plus a $2,195 destination charge. Its Saddle Tan interior combines leather trim with real American walnut in an open-pore finish, the grille and exterior accents are chrome-finished, and the wheels are 20-inch machined-finish alloys. Massaging front seats are standard, 4WD is built in, and the trim seats seven. Like every 2026 Sequoia, it runs on the 437-horsepower i-FORCE MAX hybrid and is rated at an EPA-estimated 19 mpg city, 22 highway and 20 combined. Toyota of Bristol stocks the lineup at 1069 Farmington Avenue in Bristol, Connecticut.
Where the name comes from
The 1794 Edition borrows its name from the Texas ranch land where Toyota's San Antonio plant now sits, which has a history that goes back to 1794. Toyota leans into that heritage with a cabin that looks different from anything else in the Sequoia lineup. Instead of the black or gray leather found elsewhere, the interior is Saddle Tan with leather trim, and the trim is genuine American walnut with an open-pore finish that lets you feel the grain. It is a warmer, more traditional take on luxury than the dark, tech-forward look of the Platinum.
On the outside, chrome grille and accent finishes brighten the front end and the 20-inch machined wheels catch the light. A small 1794 Edition badge on the lower door is the quiet signature. Silver, as in the studio photo above, shows the chrome off well, though several other colors are offered.
Comfort features and what carries over
Massaging front seats, standard here as on the Platinum and Capstone, are part of the package this year, and the 14-inch touchscreen and 4WD system come along with the rest of the upper-trim equipment. The 1794 Edition and Platinum are very close in price, about $815 apart, and in capability, so the choice between them is mostly a question of taste: warm tan leather and wood, or darker finishes and a panoramic roof. Seven seats are standard with second-row captain's chairs, and the power-folding third row is on every 2026 Sequoia.
Towing is rated at up to roughly 9,500 pounds in the lighter configurations, though like other upper trims the 1794 Edition can be a little lower because of its added equipment. The hitch, wiring harness, trailer brake controller and trailer-sway control are standard fleet-wide.
A trim for the long way home
The 1794 Edition tends to go to buyers who keep their vehicles for a decade and want the cabin to feel the same on the last day as the first. Real wood and tan leather age gracefully, and that matters in a household where the same SUV carries a dog, a hockey bag, the groceries and the occasional trip to the Connecticut shoreline. For a family in Bristol, the practical side is just as strong: 4WD for the snowy stretches, seven seats for the weekend and a hybrid system that reduces the sting of a vehicle this big at the pump.
What buyers say about the experience
Customers describe Toyota of Bristol as a place where the price and the person both feel right. Raffaela D., who bought her first Toyota there, wrote, "They were both so personable and really helped us choose the perfect vehicle with the perfect price for our first Toyota!" That same attention to price and people shows up again and again in the reviews, whatever the vehicle.
Frequently asked questions
What does 1794 mean on the Toyota Sequoia?
It refers to the Texas ranch land, dating to 1794, where Toyota's San Antonio assembly plant for the Sequoia and Tundra was built. The trim uses that heritage as inspiration for its Saddle Tan interior and walnut wood trim.
Does the 1794 Edition have massaging seats?
Yes. Massaging front seats are standard on the 1794 Edition, as they are on the Platinum and Capstone, with upper- and lower-body massage options that can be controlled from the touchscreen.
Is the 1794 Edition 4WD only?
Yes. There is no rear-wheel-drive 1794 Edition, so the $82,550 MSRP already includes 4WD. The EPA-estimated combined mpg figure is 20.
How does the 1794 Edition compare with the Capstone?
The Capstone costs $3,585 more in MSRP and adds 22-inch wheels, power-extending running boards, Shale premium leather and extra luxury touches such as a head-up display. The 1794 Edition keeps the Saddle Tan and walnut look and the same hybrid powertrain.
How much is sales tax on a Sequoia 1794 Edition in Connecticut?
With the $2,195 destination charge the total is $84,745, so Connecticut's 7.75 percent rate for vehicles over $50,000 gives an estimated tax of about $6,568 before title, registration and fees. The pricing and leasing guide has the full table.
