The Sequoia trunk is terribad. How in this day and age, can you have a STEPPED trunk floor after you fold the seats? How did that pass focus groups? how did the engineering team, design team, and marketing team ALL SIGN OFF on such BS design?
Sequoia wasn't supposed to live but Toyota NA begged and got $5 for development budget - so no money to engineer IRS rear suspension.

One thing I noticed with our X3 is, if you put it in sport mode, it's still burning a small amount of fuel even if you are completely off throttle, so it seems like it's doing some form of "anti-lag" where the turbo is kept spinning to maintain response. Guarantee you Toyota wouldn't do something like that and it's full open wastegate.
It's not antilag, it's an emissions thing where they need to burn off the fuel.
