Toyota lives 'legendary' in new 2023 Sequoia campaign



(October 11, 2022) PLANO, Texas — Toyota invites drivers to create legendary moments in the powerful all-new 2023 Sequoia with the “Live Legendary” campaign. The campaign sets its sights on the open road and highlights the hybrid SUV’s premium and powerful features to encourage drivers to create their own legends.

“Recognizing stories of people in their moments of epic experiences, the ‘Live Legendary’ campaign exemplifies the bold qualities of the all-new Sequoia,” said Lisa Materazzo, group vice president, Toyota Marketing, Toyota Motor North America. “The all-new Sequoia is the total package for any adventure, whether driving across country, hauling gear or traveling with your family.”

The fully integrated targeted campaign was developed by Saatchi & Saatchi, with consideration of the mainstream audiences across America. The campaign showcases the SUV’s space for families who need it — whether that be to haul passengers, gear or both.

In the thirty second spot, titled “Campfire Stories” and directed by Chris Sargent, viewers are invited to seek adventure and make legendary moments in the all-new powerful i-FORCE MAX Twin Turbo V6 Hybrid Sequoia. The spot highlights the Sequoia’s new look while showcasing impressive towing capability, premium comfort and key features including an efficient powertrain, convenient technology, and versatile cargo space.

The “Live Legendary” Sequoia campaign extends across CTV, digital video, digital content, paid social, and programmatic. High profile prime and sports programming includes Sunday Night Football, NBA, FOX, NASCAR and more. Digital content/video includes partners such as Yahoo, Hulu, Paramount, YouTube and more. Partnerships include Pinterest, Tastemade, Spotify, and Moveable Feast via Fexy Relish, among others. Paid Social runs across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest.

The all-new 2023 Toyota Sequoia lives up to its powerful and legendary namesake, thanks to a head-turning new look, luxurious comfort, impressive technology and the perfect blend of performance and efficiency.

The third-generation Sequoia is completely redesigned and worthy of the “all-new SUV” description. All 2023 Sequoia will feature the powerful i-FORCE MAX Twin Turbo V6 Hybrid powertrain. First unveiled on Tundra, this exceptional hybrid produces 437 horsepower and 583 lb.-ft. of torque. The vehicle is on sale starting Fall 2022 with a starting MSRP of $58,300 not including destination charge.
