    Just purchased the 2025 Platinum. For my tastes it’s the perfect vehicle.
    I attend a lot of cycling events across multiple states and, in the Sienna, I can carry 2 bikes standing up plus baggage and supplies. That’s a win! (For context, I own size 56 road bikes)
    Extremely comfortable driving position!
    I thought the HUD was a gimmick but in real world use, I’m loving it!
    Then there’s the MPG’s; 35-40 gives me over 600 miles on a tank of gas. Big win!
    The price is lofty, but Travis brought up an excellent point that many SUV’s are at and above that cost with, in my opinion, far less utility.
    IMHO, Toyota should make more Siennas than any other model in their lineup…

      I did and that was pretty cool, however:
      For the last 2 years I’ve been renting minivans for every cycling event I have attended.
      So minivans were the way to go, I just had to choose the right one.
      After renting everything except the Carnival, buying the Sienna just made sense. IMHO, it was the no compromise option! 🙂

    I had been planning on getting a Carnival, but after comparing ownership experiences on the Carnival message boards vs. Sienna, I decided I wouldn't be comfortable with the variety of issues some of the owners were dealing with and the slow responses by dealerships and Kia. The $3000 price increase from 2024 to 2025 decreased its value argument against the Sienna. I'm excited to receive my 2025 Sienna XSE AWD in a few weeks.

    We bought one of these late 2020 so was one of the first of this generation to roll off the assembly line before demand went nuts and dealers weren’t marking anything up. Zero issues, AWD and gets the same fuel economy as the compact car we replaced. This is the most practical vehicle you can buy out there hands down if you want economy and awd as well which none of the competition offers. Never had a need to remove the rear seats but can see how that would be annoying for some that need max cargo space. Who cares if the drivetrain is buzzy under acceleration, minor gripe. I’ve never noticed acceleration being negatively affected at high altitudes and steep grades and I live in the mountains. Toyota needs to find a way to make this a PHEV then this would be the cherry on top. Minivans >> SUVs any day!

    I've been wanting a hybrid Sienna since before they made one. Finally was able to get a 2024 XLE FWD in red in summer in June. My wife and I have 3 kiddos and it's a HUGE upgrade from our 2010 Mazda 5. The interior is very well thought out. I love all the storage up front for knick knacks, phones, wallets, etc. And the ride is sublime, so smooth, soaks up the bumps really well. It's got plenty of power for merging and passing--did a road trip with 3 adults, 3 kids, and all our stuff from NC to PA (plus a day trip to North Jersey) and it performed really well--we kept an average of 36.7mpg for the entirety of that trip. As for the infotainment, the older version works great and I'm glad there is an option to dim the screen for night-time driving or just turn the screen off entirely if you're driving at night in bad weather. That said, I do think Toyota would benefit from having a dedicated button for toggling the screen on and off like Chrysler does.

    Hi! Pacifica Hybrid owner here! Alex - sorry but your note at the end about remote starting the PacHy in your garage is…. Well I wouldn’t recommend that. If the car believes the outdoor temperature is below 40 degrees F, it *will* start the gasoline engine to heat the cabin. So yeah, please don’t say that.

    After much deliberation, yesterday I put a deposit on a 2025 Sienna XSE AWD in cement gray with the premium package for MSRP. I take possession early January. From there, I plan to (rather immediately) add the JOR 3” lift, all-terrain tires, and a 2” hitch. This is my second Sienna. Previously I leased a 2015 XLE AWD, which I loved. That previous one was my SoCal desert / rock climbing van. This new one will be my Colorado Rockies mountain / ski van. I think the combination of high mpg, AWD, six-feet of flat floor and hybrid HVAC for car camping, kid-friendly comforts, price of entry, and long-term reliability are hard to beat.

    Toyota Sienas in the Houston area have been $5K+ over sticker or a whole bunch of dealer add ons $5-10K just to get or a wait list. Ended up choosing a Honda Odyssey $4K under msrp instead because I can’t say, even if it is slightly better, it’s worth the price difference.

    Bought one last year through a dealership friend with no markup. This is by far the best minivan. MPG and luxury feel takes it over the top. Zero issues and feels great. Power is lower than before on uphill highway passing. Plug in hybrid isn’t possible for those of you asking. Take a look at car care nut underbody review and you will see there’s no space underneath.

    Alex and Travis, Before diving too deeply into the Sienna, may we take a moment to appreciate Toyota's greatest achievement* of the 21st century? Naturally, I am referring to the first generation Matrix we glimpse around 14:36. 🥳🥳 Getting back to the minivan market, Toyota recently announced a 20% increase in Sienna production for 2025. That should go some way towards meeting demand for the most rational choice in the segment. Finally, the term 'cargo van' was brought up once or twice in the discussion. Toyota manufactures a full range of cargo/delivery vans for other markets. In this age of endless door to door delivery on every suburban street on the continent, it remains a great mystery why Toyota allows Ford, Fiat, GM etc to have the market to themselves.🤔 * North American achievement.

    My coworker absolutely despises the existence of the minivan. He's like "they're absolutely lifeless to drive, I'd simply rather not drive" and true, they are lifeless. But when you realize this is a guy who drove a GTI and it got too boring and traded it in for a Golf R, you get a sense for what he means for a vehicle to have "life". But for me, who drives an (older) ES 300h, this is just a really big ES and to that I say rock on I'd pound on the miles in this boat. Most people don't care about handling dynamics outside of being able to handle that one county road at 50mph

      I should add that you need to take Honda's "retail sales" thing with a grain of salt. Just because Honda has no fleet discount program does not mean that fleets don't buy Hondas. Hertz for instance rents Hondas and they currently have more used ex-rental Hondas for sale than they have Buicks, Mitsubishis, or Volkswagens. Fleets simply have to buy via a dealer like most companies and they can get volume discounts, just not "rebates" from the OEM like Ford and Gm do.

    Not to complain about the good ol' days of minivans, but the trend away from foldable or even removable second-row seats is unfortunate. Chrysler set the standard with the Grand Caravan back in 1987, introducing the ability to hold a 4x8' sheet of plywood with the hatch closed. Chrysler still has a monopoly on creating a truly flat cargo floor with Stow 'n Go seats, since Odyssey now has sizable seat tracks even after you take out the second row. I guess everyone gets their plywood delivered these days?

      Run out of battery is simply an expression for "effective 0% SOC" and yes, Toyota hybrids can get to an SOC where the vehicle can draw no more power from the battery. It's not a perpetual motion machine, it cannot deliver 245 HP continuously for long periods when the engine alone makes under 190.

    That rear bumper looks like it wouldn't protect anything in a slow speed collision, the hatch would come into contact with anything hitting it in the rear because the rear bumper doesn't stick out at all, totally useless for protection. Would help if you would mention how the 4wd works, from what I understand the rear drive is just an electric motor so when the juice from the battery is used up you have no more 4wd, is that true?

      mini wan owners know this well. A slight bump will damage the rear door, and being plastic you likely need to replace the whole thing. This is a trend. Some how the designers think this looks better. I think the lower side of the rear looks very ugly.

      I was heavily considering Carnival, however there seems to be lots of battery draining issue with the Carnival, and Carnival’s hybrid system is very questionable, it uses much smaller displacement engine.i end up ordered a Sienna with AWD. The 2025 interior is not as bad, new infotainment system is actually more smooth than the Carnival.

    Yeah I’d take the carnival or Pacifica or odyssey every single day.

Even the cheaper grades of those other vans are nicer than the sienna

      The only real competition for the Sienna is the Carnival, but if you want AWD, then it’s out of the story, Of course there is the Pacifica AWD but that won’t get near the same MPG’s that this does. So that’s out of the story too. The Odyssey literally has no redeeming qualities over the competition except if you want the Honda V6
