Will 2012 Bring Us The Most Comfortable Sienna Yet?

Creature comforts are not just standard on the all new 2012 Toyota Sienna, they’re mandatory. Owning a minivan like Sienna will save money at the pump, thanks to class-leading MPG. But it will also make you WANT to drive.

That’s right, somehow Toyota has people looking forward to long family road trips. Thanks to a stylish new design and spacious interior, the 2012 Toyota Sienna will take you from Oklahoma City to Chicago, Los Angeles to Seattle, and even across the United States in absolute comfort.

The 2012 Sienna offers both 3.5-liter V6 or 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine. The 3.5-liter generates 266 horsepower, along with an EPA-estimated mileage of 18 mpg city, 25 highway. Toyota’s 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine produces 187 horsepower and EPA-estimated 19 mpg city, 24 on the highway.

Inside, Sienna’s updated look offers an “open field” of view to create “airy, roomy ambiance throughout the cabin.” Both seven-and-eight-seater configure depending on passenger load.

“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. Or, they can be moved forward close to the front seats to make it easy to reach a child passenger, while also allowing easy access for third-row passengers.”

There is a standard second-row “Lounge Seating” on Sienna’s trim. This set up includes leg and foot support, second-row captains’ chairs with dual armrests, and one-motion release mechanism for seat removal.
