2025 TOYOTA SIENNA ANNOUNCED

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Toyota Sienna receives a series of welcome, albeit not revolutionary, updates. The reviewer highlights the new Advanced Rear Seat Reminder as a significant safety addition, though notes its limitations. Interior enhancements include updated fit and finish, and the availability of a 12.3-inch touchscreen and digital gauge cluster on higher trims, which are praised for their modern look, though the gauge cluster's customization is found to be clunky. The addition of a vacuum and a cool box (fridge) as standard on Platinum and available on Limited trims is noted, but the vacuum's utility is questioned due to its fixed hose and limited reach. A key point of contention is the retention of the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 suite instead of the newer 3.0, a decision deemed strange for a family vehicle. Despite the $1,500 price increase across the board, the Sienna's market dominance is attributed to its exceptional fuel economy and lack of direct competition, with the reviewer hoping for a plug-in hybrid variant in the future.
