All Siennas usage Toyota's V6 to power the front wheels through a four-speed transmission. All are the same size. An optional power moving door on the right is available for LE and also XLE designs ($ 395).
Of the 3 trim degrees, the CE is fundamental: Cooling, cruise control, cassette player, and also power home windows, locks and mirrors are all optional. The CE is available as a four-door version - there's just one gliding door, on the right side. (The back hatch counts as a door.).

WALKAROUND
With its tidy, conventional looks, the Sienna is a traditional minivan with refined touches of sport-utility designing. The long, sloping nose is clearly minivan, yet square lines in other places-- particularly when viewed from the back-- recall a sport-utility automobile. Where several minivans display large moves of metal, the Sienna has a relatively also percentage of glass to steel, one more SUV quality.
Sienna uses a stretched version of the Camry platform. It is built on the same Georgetown, Kentucky, production line as the Camry. Basing the Sienna on the Camry causes nice roadway manners. It additionally makes it more economical to make and also construct-- a great deal for carmaker and purchaser. These savings allow Toyota to bring the price of the Sienna closer to the standard for the course.
Being in the driveway, the Sienna looks neat and also portable. Its size (193 inches) places it concerning halfway between the brief and lengthy Chrysler minivans. It's 3 inches narrower than the Chrysler minivans and 1 inch lower in height.
INSIDE
Despite its moderate size, the within the Sienna is roomy. Three-row seating is standard, as well as the back freight area is a fitting 18 inches deep from hatch open up to seatback. The flip-and-fold seats make it simple to broaden the freight location as required.
If you should eliminate the seats completely, they can be raised out independently. The seats can be gotten rid of with the seat backs folded level, which makes them less complicated to manage. The seat latches are wonderfully carried out; they launch easily and are straightforward to re-install.
Getting in as well as from the Sienna is very easy. Double gliding doors guarantee travelers get in and out quickly and also minimize running around to the far side of the automobile to order a youngster. Child-safety door locks beat the inside door handles on all sliding doors. At the full-open placement, an interlock stopper avoids sliding doors from gliding shut when parked on a downhill quality. A half-door stopper protects against the left-side moving door from fully opening up when the fuel cover is opened to prevent the door from making contact with the fueling location.
The optional right-side power sliding door can be opened up by pressing switches on the dash, keyless remote or B-pillar, or by pulling on the within or outdoors latches. Throughout the summer season, it's nice to be able to begin the airing out process while you're approaching the Sienna with a tons of groceries. A button beside the steering wheel permits the vehicle driver to override these switches so that the power sliding door can not be opened. The power sliding door attribute works without having the key in the ignition. The power moving door can be opened like a regular door when the power switch is turned off. The power gliding door senses when an obstacle is in its course as well as immediately pulls back.
Step-in height is a lot lower than that of an SUV, making getting in and also out much easier for much shorter individuals, older individuals and everybody else. When in, the chauffeur appreciates a large view of the road, though the sitting setting is not as high as in many sport-utility automobiles. Presence is outstanding in all directions, thanks to all the glass. Big mirrors (power on LE as well as XLE designs) supply a great sight to the back. Instruments are big, bright as well as very easy to review.
All seating placements are extremely comfy. Our Sienna was equipped in the optional natural leather furniture, which is attractive, glamorous as well as simple to clean. Reduced side boosting on the seats makes insinuating and out of them less complicated, yet they lack assistance to keep you easily anchored in aggressive side-to-side maneuvers. Though the back two rows of seats don't offer as much space as the larger Honda Odyssey, Dodge Grand Campers or Chrysler Community & Nation, they give adequate room to easily seat six people. With a little participation amongst the guests, fore and aft adjustments for the 2nd row (and also, naturally, the front row) permit optimum space for people of differing elevations.
Storage is close at hand without hindering the charitable pass-through in between the pole positions that makes it easy to relocate from the front to the rear without going out. Little webs connected to the sides of the front seats are terrific for saving toll tickets, sunglasses or purses. Fold-down cupholders next to the storage space internet secure beverages however turn up off the beaten track when not in use; they do not appear like they would certainly hold tall drinks well, but safely held my Venti-sized paper cappuccino mug.
The second row can be equipped with either captain's chairs or a two-place bench seat. The seatbacks fold to provide a flat surface area for food and video games as well as cupholders. Built into the doors are rounded owners appropriate for one-liter bottles. Cupholders, approximately 14 of them, are almost everywhere. Either captain's chairs or a three-place bench can be purchased for the third row; the captain's chairs are more suitable if you only require seats for 6 individuals.
Environment controls are installed high up on the facility control panel for good accessibility. Radio controls are installed fairly reduced, however acc.
DRIVING IMPACT
The fact that the Sienna is based on the Camry is a good thing. The Camry's 3.0-liter V6 engine, four-speed electronic transmission, steering system, gearbox, as well as front suspension are industry standouts for improvement in the affordable mid-size sedan market. So the Sienna gain from a lot of proven innovation.
The result is a minivan with a ride as good as is out there. A large, tall box will never ride and also take care of as well as a reduced, smooth car, however the Sienna is respectable. The steering isn't really as sharp, the short-term action isn't really as crisp as a few of the other minivans. It leans in the corners, and also seems a little bit mushy in transient maneuvers. Yet generally, it takes care of well as well as its soft suspension makes up for any type of dealing with deficiencies with its smooth trip quality as well as solid stability on the freeway.
Toyota's V6 is simple to cope with. It's smooth, trustworthy, and also cost-effective. It generates 194 horse power, dramatically more than either the Chrysler or Ford 3.0-liter V6s. Toyota's V6 is efficient with EPA gas economy ratings of 18/24 mpg city/highway. Chrysler as well as Ford each deal 3.8-liter V6 engines with a great deal much more torque, but the Toyota V6 provided a lot of power. Passing various other lorries on hillsides is simple: Punch it as well as the Sienna removes, quickly placing the slower vehicle away. On turnpikes and also Interstates in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware as well as Maryland, the Sienna provided exceptional high-speed stability. Power was never an issue. Toyota advises costs gas.
The four-speed automatic transmission is excellent. It constantly selects the ideal gear, developing a team with the V6. Changes are so smooth when cruising that they are almost smooth; under difficult velocity the transmission gives favorable changes at the redline. Anti-lock brakes come common on the Sienna, which provides smooth quiting performance.
