2024 Toyota Sienna Minivan Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Wonderful.
This car is fantastic for family life. It drives well, is quick enough (0-60 comparable to V6 vans from a decade ago and it easily gets out of its way) and is really quiet around town in the Limited trim. In the 95% of time you aren't accelerating, it is just as smooth and quiet as my Acura or Audi. The engine noise can be a little unrefined under heavy acceleration but when cruising it's smooth and relaxing to drive. I routinely break 40mpg and have a lifetime average of around 38.5 with zero change in how I drive and generally with a full load of kids and lots of highway miles. I'm so glad I didn't get an Odyssey, which is what I was planning to do before test driving, because the Honda's 19 city is so poor compared to the 36 in the Toyota (though I almost always beat 40 in the city and sometimes can hit 50!). The front seat area is thoughtfully designed with easy controls and great storage areas and the visibility is excellent. Sliding doors are a game changer and the kick to open feature is great. The cargo space is good and I really like the second row long slide seats. The kids have tons of space and adults can fit in all three rows. There are some things that could be better but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is great. For instance I'd love a sharper screen and backup camera but that is a tiny problem compared to the giant plus of this car which is amazing fuel economy combined with van practicality. Stereo is okay. Not at the level of a luxury car but not terrible. I might upgrade the speakers. I did put in a $50 wireless CarPlay adaptor that works great and adds that feature. Do wish it had standard spare tire and it would be nice to have an 8 seat option on the Limited. While many have had to wait, I got lucky and was able to get one brand new off the lot for under MSRP which made it price competitive for me with the Honda which would cost $1000 more to fuel a year and came with a lot less free maintenance. Overall hugely recommended and I can't imagine why families choose SUVS over this.

The best transportation no bodycares
Recently our family purchased an Le model with the lowest price on the market. Our family had total 7 members included Boo! It was so convenient for us on our recent trip to Santa Barbara! It has enough room for all of us and sones. In and out at every single stop was so quick and easy. The best of all we didn’t have to stop for gas! The exterior of the 2024 Toyota Sienna Le looks so modern and the interior was so spacious and for me the driver I have a very good view all around from the front. Travel with a large group it’s is the best with a mini van and it’s the transportation that nobody cares!

Great family car, meh infotainment, engine drone.
We have a 2024 sienna XLE awd hybrid. It has been great. Drives smooth and has pep when you need it! Awesome seating, and having the adjustable sliding second row is fantastic for car seats. My only two gripes with the 24’ Sienna is the engine/cabin noise. When the engine revs up into the “Power” zone you can really hear is drone. I wish it was quieter. And lastly the infotainment is lacking. The screen is a bit small and has buttons on the sides. The software is where it is really lacking. Apple CarPlay connectivity is spotty and has its bugs. Good family vehicle! Gets 32+ average. Can get 36-38 hwy for road trips!

Sienna is great
We got the Sienna XSE snow it’s great! Comfy, roomy, and lots of storage in back. The rear seats fold easily into the floor, But the middle seats don’t come out at all. The do slide forward so you can fit a sheet of plywood.
Movin' on up....a move too far?
Still fewer than 100 miles on the van, but early impressions.... The heads up display is better against dark background (darkness, shadows), does not show well in sunlight. Third row seats do not fold entirely flat - Ok for duffels but not sliding heavy/large trade show boxes, etc. :-( Not a fan of the fixed armrests front console, and passenger seat seems narrower and higher than previous models. I am going to love the hybrid economy, and it drives very nicely, a more comfortable ride compared to the stiffer suspension XSE. Drift is non existent and brakes are solid. I do detect a small noise as electric motors kick in or out, but ignored as soon as I determined source. Road noise is well controlled. The auto Hi/Lo headlights are very nice, quicker to change than I would be manually. The GPS is of nice viewable size and distance-accurate to a few meters, Will be testing the second row lounge seats next road trip and that extra assist bar is good, reasons for selecting over the XLE trim. Extra long slide is nice for variety of people/equipment configuration. Control buttons are small, not to be searched for while moving. The foot kick features on side and rear are great (back up a step in the rear!). This trim level is definitely upscale as a people mover with more room for 'stuff' than any SUVs. I appreciate the 360* views and the curving lines on back up camera. I am a minivan person, having owned a Dodge Grand Caravan, Honda Odyssey, Sienna XLE and Sienna LE AWD before this purchase for my comparisons. Their mixed practicality can't be beat.
