Toyota Sienna

"Surprising responsive engine and handling. This is our "highway" and road trip car for our family of 5 sometimes 6 with grandma and all are comfortable and the car is so reliable."

"Drives and shifts well under all conditions."

"Excellent acceleration, with very smooth ride"

"Merges in traffic smoothly"

"Bearing in mind that this is a minivan, and not a sports car, the acceleration and handling is great. Have driven extensively under all kinds of conditions, it has been driven from New Jersey to Alaska via Alaska Highway (and back), taken up to top of Mt Evans in Colorado at 14,000 feet, and many cross-country roadtrips (as well as local use of course) and it has always been a pleasure to drive."

"Very responsive"

"I have the all wheel drive version. This is a negative with regards to gas mileage, but makes driving on icy or snow-covered roads much more manageable. It isn't overly fast (it is a minivan!), but accelerates and handles well enough to make the driver quite comfortable and relaxed. Overall, a very nice handling vehicle for a minivan to move seven people and a large dog!"

"Easy to drive and acceleration is excellent. Great pickup."

"Accelerates well and handles very well, except for a little issue with reared when wet"

"Acceptable but transmission upshifts to soon going up hill and shifts up and down going up hill when using cruise control"

"The 3.5 Liter engine allows for rapid acceleration in traffic."

"3.5L V6 engine provides very good acceleration, and the car handles very well for a minivan. Balanced and stable. The bad are the brakes. While they stop adequately, they could be stronger."

"very bad acceleration. Worse then some trucks. Once you finally get up to speed its okay. Drives like a truck."

"Good acceleration, very quick for a large vehicle. Handling is okay for a minivan."

"Handled very well when I had a tire blowout at turnpike speeds"

"Incredibly powerful and responsive, when when fully loaded."

"The van has very good handling and acceleration for a van (I also own an older Miata) and rides very well."

"Fantastic acceleration and driving"

"Acceleration sluggish. Cruise control struggles when driving in the mountains."

"The vehicle is excellent at acceleration when merging into traffic. It handles very well on curves and turns. I feel very safe driving in this vehicle."

"I really like the tight turning radius. I can turn around in a much smaller space than in my Dodge Caravan"

"Handles very smoothly and power is better than my last van"

"Drives great in the snow. We get a lot of snow."

"The acceleration for a 6 cylinder is truly remarkable. The ride is smooth and the van handles well."

"Very good acceleration - surprisingly powerful"

"Love the feel of the tires on the road. Vehicle feels heavy on the road, but drives otherwise. Has sufficient acceleration to move about in traffic."

"For a "mini-van": with lots of passenger/cargo capacity, I have been very impressed with it's handling and acceleration; a very impressive trip vehicle for my wife and I, the only time I drive it."

"Mostly used by my wife, who wishes she had heated seats"

"Very comfortable and reliable Don't like the fact that warning lights are always on for air pressure in tires. I believe this sensor was a faulty design that does not work well in cold climates"

"Value"

"The family hauler in our house. Is very comfortable in ride and seating even in when on the long haul vacations, 600 miles in a day is no problem."

"The seats are very comfortable and adjust easily. There is little cabin noise and it rides smoothly."

"Plenty of leg room, comfortable seats, many cup-holders."

"Excellent ride, great design, quality product."

"Drivers side window motor keeps breaking (window can't be lowered)"

"Noisier (wind) than I expected for a Toyota."

"This is the most comfortable minivan we have driven in. Also owned Ford Flex, which rode Ok, but not as comfortable as the Sienna."

"It is a minivan, and has the space and ability to use people and cargo one would expect. It drives well, even nearing 200,000 miles, and is comfortable for very long trips."

"Great visibility and ease of tracking traffic around me."

"Great comfort - full support"

"Very comfortable for long rides, seats provide good support a little more road/wind noise that I would like."

"Seats are comfortable even for driving 3 to 4 hours, could be a tad quieter"

"Wish there was less road noise."

"At 5‿3 the driver and front passenger seats are painful to my neck due to depth of the seat and height of headrest. There isn’t really a good way to adjust the seat to accommodate short people."

"My Toyota van is very comfortable vehicle. The seats are soft leather and fully adjustable to each person. I can set the memory and it adjusts to me at the touch of a button when I get in."

"Quiet and smooth on the highway as well as spacious and comfortable for all eight riders."

"Seats are very comfortable...easily adjusted..ride i's smooth...could be quieter"

"Excellent seat cushioning and great interior room"

"Wind noise exceeds my likes, often have difficulty talking with passengers or hearing audio system. CR years ago published noise levels of vehicles. Why did you stop?"

"Seats get uncomfortable on long trips"

"As the car got older it got exponentially noisier"

"Noise: wind noise while not overbearing could be improved. I added Window Deflector Sun/Rain Guards on the front doors but it did not make a difference."

"Passenger rear door failed to open electronically. Mechanism broke, too expensive to replace, so manually operating open & close !"

"Wonderful comfortable seats on this vehicle that we travelled all over the USA."

"Seats very firm, uncomfortable on a long trip"

"leather seats are too hot in the summer. Need to place a towel on seat to sit or not wear shorts. Winter cold is not a problem, I have heated seats. Would have preferred cloth seats but not an option."

"Air Conditioning system seems to have leak that service dept can't locate. As i use the AC very rarely, it never was a problem except when planning long hot trips and that was rarely. I have it refilled each summer and that holds until the next year for me, so I love my Sienna! Even when it's HOT"

"The front seats are dished. I'm a larger guy so this makes it uncomfortable on the back of my thighs. I had to buy a chair cushion to fill the void."

"Back at you raceFront seat does not adjust backwards far enough"

"Comfort--this is an excellent vehicle with ample seating space for travelling long distances with 7 people and bags for all. Cargo space is plentiful and seats that fold down or tumble up to open the cargo area are very useful."

"Noisy. Hvac always colder than set point"

"it is a minivan. As a minivan, it is good, but it does not compare well in comfort to more luxurious sedans. It rides and handles like a heavy minivan, which is exactly what it is. Mine has run-flat tires, and the RFT's add cost, but have worked when we had flats (three times), so I am not sure if I like the concept or detest the concept. It truly depends on if I have a flat at the time, or if I am purchasing new (and very expensive!!!) tires."

"very noise on city streets"

"Seats are excellent, especially lumbar support. Driver's seat is very adjustable - back, height, position, position of steering wheel. I can drive for several hours without discomfort."

"Interior lights on control buttons have burned out and are very expensive to replace. I would never have thought this would be an issue"

"More comfortable than my last van"

"8 passenger seat, so the back seats are not comfortable."

"Seats are great. The road noise is bad."

"Road/wind noise is too noticeable. Much more noise than my 2006 Tundra."

"Lacks sufficient leg room in the driver's seat for someone who has long legs and is 6 ft 4 inches"

"road noise while driving is bad"

"Does what it was designed for"

"With 220,000 miles, I feel as if I received great value. The car is still running well with no problems."

"It has been bullet proof reliable and has required very little other than standard maintenance. Still going strong after 160K miles!"

"Very reliable"

"Got a good deal from dealer"

"dependable"

"At the time of purchase auto sales were way down and I received an excellent deal."

"Reliable, with good fuel economy 24-26 hwy mpg, 22 around town mpg. Very few issues."

"Have had the Sienna for 9.5 years with almost no maintenance costs other than routine service. Had a low purchase price too in the winter of 2009."

"Most reliable vehicle I've ever owned, 195k miles and it is still going strong. When I purchased in 2009 I paid only $26k and that was a remarkable value, because my Sienna has lasted at least 50% longer than other vehicles I've owned... and will probably continue for quite a while yet. The only failure/repair in any system in this vehicle was the water pump at 120k miles."

"Very reliable and low maintenance cost. Still runs great after 170000 miles."

"VERY RELIABLE JUST A GREAT CAR"

"History of prior consumer positive reports of my vehicle. The willingness of the dealer making the claim that my chosen van is a highly sought after used vehicle! Despite running over a large deer ( that had been initially hit by another vehicle and run over by a car in front of me and then our van , my wife and despite being thoroughly stunned and shaken by hitting this deer, we were able to drive nervously, another 35 miles home! Ironically, I stopped to check out a driver stopped on the side"

"We bought this vehicle "one year used" with 33,000 miles on the odo. We now have an additional 100,000 miles on the odo and have been able to drive what has been a trouble free vehicle for six years and will continue to do so for we have no thoughts of trading it in. All repairs on the vehicle have either been a factory recall (seat belts) or due to normal wear and tear (brakes). One of my sons has the same vehicle which is five years older and has had to make very few repairs in almost 270,0"

"I bought a certified used car from a dealer. I had a budget. The mileage and price fit my budget. I have no complaints. Have put and additional 100,000 mile on the car and plan to drive it another 80,000 miles."

"This is veery good vehicle. My only complaint is the fron end is to low. I would prefer more clearance on the front end."

"This vans acceleration is incredible. The comfortable seats are perfect for long trips. The gas mileage is great at 24 mpg for such a large vehicle."

"Never bought this as an economy vehicle. Use for traveling and tolerate lower mileage. Very comfortable to ride in and drive. Handles well in all conditions with ample room."
