The all-new third-generation Sienna combines a contemporary style with features not previously seen in a minivan, and a fun-to-drive spirit. The 2011 Sienna will look and drive more like a sedan, conform to new ideas about personal comfort, easily accommodate cargo, and handle big loads.
 
The 2011 Sienna has been completely redesigned with state-of the art features and rewarding driving dynamics. Sienna will offer new models, including a sporty SE and an available four-cylinder powertrain, as it continues to be the only minivan with an all-wheel-drive option.

  
 
Visually Intriguing

The Sienna has a distinctly new visual direction and features.

Dimensionally, the new Sienna rides on the same wheelbase as the prior generation, but it is wider and slightly shorter overall.
 
Sophisticated headlamps and a sculpted rear corner separate the Sienna's bold new design from boxy minivans.
 
The interior features upscale quality and elegance, while creating the feeling of increased personal space and a quiet cabin for both driver and passenger.
 
Power, Plus Efficiency

Both the 3.5-liter V6 and 2.7-liter four-cylinder engines offer the latest in efficient, lightweight technology, including Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), roller rocker arms, and an Acoustically Controlled Induction System (ACIS) functions to supply more torque on demand.
 
The 3.5-liter V6 generates 266 horsepower at 6,200 rpm, with expected EPA-estimated mileage ratings of 18 mpg city/24 mpg highway (16 mpg city/22 mpg highway on AWD models).  It also has a 3,500-pound towing capacity.  The all-new 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine, with 187 horsepower at 5,800 rpm, produces suprisingly responsive power, while delivering expected EPA-estimated fuel efficiency ratings of 19 mpg city and 26 mpg on the highway.
 
Sienna's first state-of-the-art, electronically controlled, six-speed transmission with sequential shift, provides smooth gear-shift feeling, quiet performance and a lightweight, compact size which complements both engine sizes.
 
Models and Features

The Sienna will come in five grades: Sienna grade, LE, SE, XLE and Limited.  All-wheel-drive is available with the V6 on LE, XLE and Limited models. All others are front-wheel drive.
 
The Sienna and LE grades are available with either the 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine or the 3.5-liter V6.  The value-driven Sienna grade and popular LE are equipped with an array of standard features such as cruise control, Daytime Running Lights with manual on/off feature, tri-zone air conditioning, six- or eight-way-adjustable driver's captain's chair, power windows with auto up/down and jam protection, AM/FM CD player with four speakers, XM compatibility, power door locks, and keyless entry, among other amenities.
 
The LE V6 model is upgraded with even more standard features such as dual power-sliding doors and power rear door, Homelink®, backup camera, rear window sunshades, AM/FM/MP3 CD player, integrated XM® satellite radio (subscription required), auxiliary audio jack, USB port with iPod® connectivity, Bluetooth®, and more.
 
The XLE adds features such as leather-trimmed seats, moonroof, an anti-theft system with engine immobilizer, and heated front seats.  Select optional XLE equipment includes a 10-speaker JBL® premium sound system with voice-activated DVD Navigation and Panorama rear camera with integrated back-up guides, XM® NavTraffic (subscription required), rear-seat Dual View Entertainment system, rear sonar, Smart Key, and an auxiliary audio jack and USB port with iPod® connectivity.
 
The Limited is designed for customers who want all the features with more luxury. The extensive standard equipment includes new second-row Lounge Seating and a power 60/40 Split & Stow third-row seat, parking sonar, Smart Key that also operates on both sliding doors (an industry-first), Safety Connect®, and North America's first independently powered, slide opening dual moonroofs.  Additional options include HID auto high-beam auto-high beam headlamps, rain-sensing wipers, and Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
New Sporty SE
 
The SE is designed for those who appreciate a sportier design with responsive performance.  The front has a more aggressive appearance, enhanced by the distinctive side skirting and smoked taillights. Aerodynamic sculpting hugs the standard 19-inch alloy wheels.  The SE sits lower, on a sport-tuned suspension for quicker feedback and better handling, and it comes with exclusive instrumentation and unique interior colors and trim.
 
Comfort Remains Key

    
 
The wider cabin of the new Sienna offers more individual space and better cargo capacity.
 
The interior is more than two inches longer, and the seats now comfortably accommodate a wider range of passenger heights and sizes.

The front seats have more rearward travel, and the steering wheel has a less upright position, for a more comfortable driving posture.

    
 
Both seven- and eight-seat cabins can be configured for a full contingent of passengers, a load of cargo, or a convenient mix of both.  In seven-seat cabins, the second row captain chairs slide 23 inches, moving to the rear to create legroom for the tallest passengers and easier ingress and egress.  They can be moved forward close to the front seats to make it easy to care for a child passenger, while also allowing easy access for third-row passengers.
 
On eight-passenger models the second-row center seat can be removed and stowed in the rear-storage area, to reveal a cupholder and storage tray. This easily converts the eight-passenger interior to fit seven passengers, and can be quickly reverted to seat eight.
 
The 60/40 Split and Stow third-row seat folds flat with one motion, with the Limited front-wheel drive receiving a power feature. The third row has been moved about two inches rearward for enhanced comfort. 
 
The wide back door opening, low floor height, and one-touch second-row seats make it easier than ever to load the Sienna. 
    
 
With the third row seat stowed and the second row seat removed, the cargo area is approximately eight feet long and four feet wide.
 
Innovative Technologies
A rear-seat Dual View Entertainment Center is a first for North America.  Using two displays side-by-side, it can create a seamless 16.4-inch widescreen image from a single source, which can be easily seen from the third row, and can be operated from any seat via remote control.  When two separate entertainment options are called for, the system can split the screen and display input from separate sources. As two screens, the system can accommodate the preferences of two separate passengers who might want to play a video game or watch a second DVD simultaneously.
 
Other technological upgrades include the world's first Panorama Camera rear monitor with a 180-degree view, and on-screen back-up guides to assist backing into parking spots or driveways.
 
Safety for All
The Star Safety System(TM), standard in all trims, helps provide a the driver a better-integrated, controlled vehicle in the event of an emergency maneuver. The system includes Anti-lock Brakes (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), enhanced Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), and Traction Control (TRAC).
 
A Pre-Collision System (PCS) with pre-collision seatbelt system is an available option on Limited. Also optional, Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) coordinates brake control with engine output and steering inputs, allowing all the control and safety systems to cooperate seamlessly. 
 
Seven airbags are standard equipment, including dual-stage front and seat-mounted side airbags for driver and front passenger, side curtain airbags covering the length of the vehicle, plus a new segment-first driver's side knee airbag. 
 
The new Safety Connect® telematics system is standard on Limited and optional on XLE.  Safety Connect offers four safety and security features: Automatic Collision Notification, Stolen Vehicle Location, Emergency Assistance Button (SOS), and Roadside Assistance.  A complimentary one-year trial subscription is included.
 
In case of airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision, Automatic Collision Notification is designed to automatically call a response center.  If a response agent cannot communicate with the occupants, the agent can contact the nearest emergency-services provider to dispatch assistance.
 
Pushing the in-vehicle "SOS" button allows drivers to reach the response center to request help in an emergency as well as for a wide range of roadside assistance needs.  If a Sienna equipped with Safety Connect is stolen, agents can work with local authorities to help locate and recover the vehicle.
 
The all-new 2011 Sienna is expected at Conicelli Toyota in February 2010 with the SE and four-cylinder-equipped models following around April.
