Round Up

Is there anything new about it? The answer is yes. It now has a 3.5-liter V6, 298 hp engine. It is basically the old 2016 Toyota Sienna with a 2017 Toyota Highlander engine, under its hood.

What's good about it?

The ride is surprisingly a smooth one. It boasts of high-quality materials. It is nothing but the best detail from the trim right through the cabin. It has a spacious space on its second-row seats. This hasn't been seen on any other minivans.

Is there a downside?

One of its strength is, unfortunately a weakness as well. The heavy second-row seats make it awkward to remove. It is basically its old predecessor with a more powerful engine.

The 2017 Toyota Sienna release just came at the right time. Other minivans had just been recently launched by its rival.

Chrysler recently introduced its Pacifica. Kia had just launched their Sedona. The 2017 Toyota Sienna closest rival is considered to be the upcoming 2017 Honda Odyssey. Now, that is another mini-van that everyone will be looking forward to.

Let us not forget the 2017 Toyota Sienna's 8-speed automatic transmission. This makes the 2017 Toyota Sienna the most powerful minivan to date. It allows for fuel efficiency and not merely acceleration. The result is a 27 mpg and a 2mpg -gain. This gives it another edge over existing mini-vans to date.

This one as most minivans, are for small start-up families. It can be used to take the kids to school, drive your significant other to work and be taken around town.
