PLANO,
Texas, Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Toyota
Sienna's sporty blend of angular good looks, spacious
functionality, and standard Hybrid powertrain has redefined the
segment for families and adventurers alike. For 2025, the Sienna
keeps on innovating by adding a standard radar-based Advanced Rear
Seat Reminder system capable of detecting movement in the rear
seats after the vehicle has been turned off and locked. The Sienna
also brings fresh interior style with new convenience features,
technology, colors and materials.
On the inside, the 2025 Toyota Sienna keeps busy lives fresh and
clean with the addition of a Vacuum and FridgeBox™. These new
creature comforts are neatly integrated into the front center
console and come standard on the Platinum trim and available on the
Limited grade. The Sienna also ups the entertainment factor,
bringing in the latest Toyota Audio Multimedia system, standard,
along with an available 12.3-inch touchscreen.
Passengers will immediately notice new design elements
throughout the cabin on all 2025 Sienna grades. The top-end
Platinum and Limited grades' leather trimmed seats offer a striking
Macadamia and Black color combination, with Black also available.
The XSE, Woodland Edition and XLE grades' easy-to-clean SofTex®
trimmed seats feature an embossed pattern with accent stitching and
the LE's woven fabric seats complement the cabin with a cool gray
color.
The center console also changes up across Sienna grades, with a
new woodgrain finish for an upscale look on the Platinum and
Limited, a gloss black serrated finish on the XSE and Woodland
Edition, and anodized dark, gray-colored paint on the XLE and LE.
The Woodland Edition's new grade-exclusive all-weather floor and
rear cargo mats bring the outdoors close to home. The new mats
feature a stamped pine tree silhouette pattern that will have your
mind on roasted marshmallows in no time.
Additionally, the driver's display leaps forward with a
customizable 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster on the XSE, Woodland
Edition, Limited, and Platinum grades. The Qi wireless smart phone
charger also gets an update to fifth generation tech that charges
devices more quickly and is now standard on all grades. All Sienna
grades also get updates that include dual microphones for increased
call clarity and USB-C charging throughout the cabin with a USB-A
port in the dash.
The 2025 Sienna also has exterior changes like eye-catching
two-tone metallic clad wheels on the Platinum grade and new
six-spoke dark-finished alloy wheels on the Woodland Edition. The
XSE grade and Woodland Edition's door handles, grille, and side
window trim now have darkened features for a sophisticated touch. A
Magnetic Gray Metallic exterior color choice is now available on
the Platinum, Limited, XSE, XLE and LE grades. And to remind
customers of our vision for the future, the addition of a Hybrid
Electric Vehicle (HEV) Beyond Zero badge on the rear liftgate of
all grades.
The 2025 Toyota Sienna's Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price
(MSRP) starts at $39,185(LE FWD)
excluding Dealer Processing and Handling fee and is expected to
start arriving at Toyota dealerships nationwide in the Fall of
2024.
Advanced Rear Seat Reminder – A Global Toyota First
A first in a Toyota vehicle, the Advanced Rear Seat Reminder
sensor is concealed in the headliner and uses a 60GHz band
millimeter-wave radar to scan the second and third row seats for
potential movement. If the system senses movement in the scanned
area after the vehicle is shifted into park and ignition is cycled
off, the driver's door has been opened then closed and the vehicle
has been locked, the initial warning will trigger the hazard lights
and to flash and sound the door lock chime nine times.
Approximately 90 seconds after the initial warning, if movement
is still detected by the sensor and a door has not been opened, the
Advanced Rear Seat Reminder will sound the horn as part of the
escalation warning.
If the driver has opted into Advanced Rear Seat Reminder
notifications via the Toyota app and has an active Safety Connect
subscription with up to 10-year trial included*, approximately four
minutes after the horn escalation warning starts, the vehicle can
also send a push notification via the Toyota app in addition to an
SMS text message to the mobile number saved in the user's account.
Finally, after an additional two minutes has elapsed, the system
will attempt to generate an automated phone call from Toyota
Safety.
In situations where the vehicle is left unlocked, the warning
sequence operates differently. If the system senses movement in the
scanned area after the vehicle is shifted into park and ignition is
cycled off, the driver's door has been opened then closed and the
vehicle has been left without being locked, the vehicle will not
provide the initial warning door lock chime and hazard flashing or
subsequent escalation warning horn sounding. But, if the driver has
an active Safety Connect subscription and opted into Advanced Rear
Seat Reminder notifications via the Toyota app, if the movement is
still detected by the sensor and a door has not been opened,
approximately 10 minutes after driver's door closing a push
notification and SMS message will be sent to the registered phone
and Toyota app.
Finally, after an additional two minutes has elapsed, the system
will attempt to generate an automated phone call from Toyota
Safety. If the driver wishes to temporarily or indefinitely disable
the system, that can be selected in the Multi Information Display
settings.

Entertainment, Toyota Style
The 2025 Toyota Sienna receives the latest Toyota's latest Audio
Multimedia system, designed and engineered by Toyota's Texas-based software teams. The LE grade comes
with an 8-inch touchscreen, while XLE, XSE, Woodland Edition,
Limited, and Platinum grades feature an expansive 12.3-inch
touchscreen.
Through Toyota Audio Multimedia, users can interact with the
system through intuitive touch- and voice-activated commands. With
the one-year Drive Connect* trial subscription on XLE grade and
higher, drivers and passengers have access to Intelligent
Assistant, Cloud Navigation and Destination Assist.
With Intelligent Assistant, simple phrases like "Hey Toyota"
awaken the system for voice-activated commands, including searching
for directions, adjusting audio controls, changing cabin
temperature and more. Available Cloud Navigation can take advantage
of the latest map, traffic and routing information, including a POI
search powered by Google. Drivers can also use Destination Assist,
which provides 24/7 access to live agents. As with all vehicles
equipped with Toyota Audio Multimedia, Sienna drivers can download
Over-the-Air (OTA) updates, augmenting the multimedia
experience.
Toyota Audio Multimedia's Bluetooth® phone connectivity allows
for standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
compatibility. Additionally, the Toyota Sienna has an available
Wi-Fi Connect* and includes a one-month trial subscription that
offers 4G connectivity for up to five devices – turning the Sienna
into an AT&T Hotspot. Adding to the already robust offering of
audio playback ability with HD Radio®, USB data and a SiriusXM®
three-month trial subscription, Wi-Fi Connect also enables
Integrated Streaming, providing customers the ability to link their
separate Apple Music® and Amazon Music subscriptions to the vehicle
for onboard control.
For the audiophile, Sienna offers an available JBL® Premium
Audio system with 12 speakers, creating a mobile concert from any
music genre. Standard on the Woodland Edition, Limited, and
Platinum grades, with the use of Clari-Fi® technology, the system
is also able to breathe life into compressed digital music formats,
enhancing the audio experience. The 12-speaker JBL Premium Audio
system is also available as an upgrade on the XLE and XSE
grades.
Robust Safety and Convenience Features
All 2025 Sienna models come standard with second-generation
Toyota Safety Sense (TSS 2.0), a comprehensive active safety system
that includes:
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
- Lane Tracing Assist
- Automatic High Beams
- Road Sign Assist
Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
is designed to provide automatic braking capability should the
driver not react in time in certain emergency situations. The PCS
system is not only designed to detect a vehicle ahead, but it can
also detect a bicyclist and even a pedestrian in low light
situations. Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (BSM
w/RCTA) is standard on all Sienna models.
The 2025 Sienna is equipped with 10 airbags: driver and front
passenger airbags, driver's knee airbag, passenger seat cushion
airbag, front seat side airbags, rear outboard seat side airbags,
plus curtain side airbags for all three rows. Toyota's Star Safety
System includes Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) with
Traction Control (TRAC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD),
Brake Assist (BA), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Smart Stop
Technology (SST). Toyota also takes peace-of-mind further with
convenience features like a rear passenger seatbelt reminder,
Electric Parking Brake (EPB), and Advanced Rear Seat Reminder
(ARSR) system.
Hybrid AWD Marvel
The Toyota Sienna offers hybrid power exclusively and benefits
from Toyota's 20+ years of global hybrid leadership and well
documented quality, durability, and reliability. The Toyota Hybrid
System II in Sienna delivers 245 total system horsepower and has a
manufacturer-estimated 36 combined MPG fuel economy on FWD models
and 35 combined MPG fuel economy on AWD models, all while operating
seamlessly for a smooth-yet-powerful driving experience.
The Sienna also offers some performance-control surprises.
Selectable EV, NORMAL, ECO and SPORT driving modes let the driver
tailor the van's driving personality. NORMAL mode is ideal for
everyday driving; SPORT mode improves acceleration response; ECO
mode extracts maximum mileage from the fuel and battery; and EV
mode allows electric-only driving at low speeds for short
distances.
The Sienna's gas engine is a marvel all by itself, with a
super-high 14:1 compression ratio and Toyota D4-S fuel injection
that delivers 41% thermal efficiency. The gas engine employs
Variable Valve Timing-Intelligent System by Electric motor (VVT-iE)
on the intake camshaft, and VVT-i on the exhaust camshaft. A
variable cooling system (electric water pump and electric
thermostat) and a fully variable oil pump further improve engine
efficiency.
Why only a manufacturer-estimated 1-MPG difference between the
front-wheel drive Sienna and models with AWD? The answer is
Toyota's innovative Electronic On-Demand All Wheel Drive system.
Instead of a heavy AWD transfer case and space-robbing driveshaft
sending power to the rear wheels, this AWD system uses a separate
independent electric motor to power them and apply additional
traction as needed at all vehicle speeds.
Like the hybrid system, the Electronic On-Demand AWD system
works seamlessly and transparently. During off-the-line starts,
Hybrid AWD pre-emptively sends up to 80% of torque to the rear
wheels to help prevent front-wheel slip. The Hybrid AWD system also
enhances cornering agility by helping to reduce understeer for more
confident handling. Torque distribution then varies with
conditions, from 100:0 in constant-speed driving to 20:80 on
slippery surfaces. Torque distribution is indicated on the
Multi-information Display.
Enhanced Technology: Stay Connected and In Control
Each Toyota Sienna comes with a variety of Connected Services*
trials depending on grade. The LE, XLE, XSE, Woodland Edition,
Limited, and Platinum come with the following Connected
Services:
- Safety Connect: Up to 10-year trial subscription*; Includes
Emergency Assistance Button, Enhanced Roadside Assistance,
Automatic Collision Notification and Stolen Vehicle Locator
- Service Connect: Up to 10-year trial subscription*, enables
owners/lessees to receive personalized maintenance updates and
vehicle health reports.
All Toyota Sienna grades add a Remote Connect 1-year trial*
subscription, giving drivers the capability to remotely interact
with their vehicle through the Toyota mobile app or smartwatch.
Depending on grade, allows you to lock/unlock doors, start and stop
the vehicle, locate your last parked location, check vehicle status
and monitor guest drivers.
* 4G network dependent.
On the Move with LE and XLE
In the Toyota tradition, the 2025 Sienna comes well equipped
across all grades, starting with the LE grade up through the XLE,
XSE, Woodland Edition, Limited, and Platinum. The Sienna Woodland
Edition grade comes with Electronic On-Demand AWD standard and all
other grades are available in a choice of FWD or Electronic
On-Demand AWD, with a 2.5L 4-cylinder HEV powertrain paired to an
electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (ECVT)
standard. Options are primarily grouped in the LE Plus, XLE Plus
and XSE Plus, and XSE Premium packages, with other available
options based on grade.
The 2025 Sienna offers many standard features across the model
lineup that come in handy for everyday errands and exciting
escapades. All models come equipped with the Toyota Safety Sense
2.0 system and Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
(BSM w/RCTA). All grades also include an anti-theft system with
engine immobilizer, standard. Sienna is also full of available
features that help the day keep moving, like push-button sliding
side doors and rear lift gate, and a 60/40 One-Motion Split &
Stow 3rd Row® seat.
The Sienna LE starts the lineup off with great features like
fabric-trimmed seating for up to eight thanks to its second and
third row bench seating. The second-row bench seat even has a
stowable center seat for a little extra elbow room. Drivers enjoy
an eight-way power adjustable seat and front passenger seating is
manually adjustable. An 8-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia system with
six speakers pumps out the entertainment and a 7-inch
Multi-Information Display (MID) with odometer, fuel economy, trip
information, and alert messages keeps drivers in the know. Other
key standard LE grade features include a three-zone climate control
system, manual second-row sunshades, and remote keyless entry with
Push Button Start. The LE Plus Package adds an auto-dimming
rearview mirror and HomeLink®, power tilt/slide moonroof with
sunshade, black roof rails, 8-inch touchscreen with 8-speaker audio
system.
The XLE grade adds hands-free dual power sliding side doors and
an available hands-free function to the rear liftgate. It also
bolsters the seating game with second-row Super-Long Slide
captain's chairs, heated SofTex-trimmed front seats, power tilt and
telescoping steering column with heated steering wheel, a digital
rear-view mirror, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with available
12-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system (XLE Plus Package).
Sport Styled XSE
The ultra-sporty XSE FWD model amps up the excitement with
sculpted body lines that are complimented by an aggressive black
sport mesh front grille and rear bumpers. It rides on dark chrome
colored 20-inch split-5-spoke alloy wheels on the XSE FWD model,
while the XSE AWD sits on 18-inch wheels. It also sports black
power outside mirrors, lower side rockers, door handle inserts,
roof-mounted shark fin antenna, and Sienna liftgate logo.
All Sienna models use a MacPherson strut type front suspension
and double wishbone type suspension in the rear to achieve a
comfortable, responsive ride. The XSE grade changes things up with
a sport tuned suspension. The sport model has different spring
rates, stabilizer bars, and damping in the absorbers to prioritize
handling.
On the inside the XSE grade has seating for seven with SofTex
sport-trimmed seats that are heated and power adjustable for the
driver and front passenger seats. Four zone automatic climate
control with digital controls in the front and rear keep passengers
comfortable throughout the cabin. And to keep everyone entertained
it comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Toyota Audio Multimedia
that pushes sound through eight speakers, has wireless Apple
CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, and includes a SiriusXM®
3-month trial subscription. The XSE Plus Package adds black roof
rails and 12-speaker JBL audio including subwoofer and
amplifier.
Into the Woodland
Designed specifically to accommodate the rising popularity of
outdoor activities among buyers, the Sienna Woodland Edition offers
cargo and passenger space comparable to a large SUV. The Woodland
Edition – and any 2025 Sienna equipped with the Electronic
On-Demand All-Wheel Drive System – has a remarkable
manufacturer-estimated 35 combined MPG. (Sienna models with
front-wheel drive have a manufacturer-estimated 36 combined
MPG.)
The 2025 Sienna Woodland Edition is available in Cypress, Cement
or Midnight Black Metallic exterior colors and has distinctive
exterior and premium interior styling, Electronic On-Demand
All-Wheel Drive standard, plus added ground clearance to take-on
dirt roads with confidence. The 2025 Sienna Woodland Edition comes
exclusively in the 7-seat configuration with Super-Long-Slide
second-row captain's chairs.
Additional touches include a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Toyota
Audio Multimedia that's ready to bring a playlist to life through a
12-speaker JBL Premium Audio system. It also brings convenience
like a 1500W AC power outlet in the rear of the cabin, all weather
floor and cargo mats, tow hitch with up to 3,500-lb. towing
capability, roof rails with crossbars, black sport-trimmed seats
with unique caramel-tone stitch color, 18-inch alloy wheels,
dark-colored accents around the grille, and black badging,
standard.
The Split & Stow 3rd Row® Seat and kick-activated power
sliding rear doors make it easy to load and carry recreational
gear. Heated front seats, sunshades in the second row and seven USB
ports across all three rows ensure comfort and convenience for all
aboard. (Other Sienna grades share these features as standard or
optional.)
Take it to the Limited or Go Platinum
The Limited and Platinum grades give Sienna the ultimate
home-on-road feel. For 2025 the lineup topping trims offer new
convenience with a console Vacuum and FridgeBox standard on
Platinum and available on Limited. They also come with the new
12.3-inch digital gauge cluster with speedometer, tachometer, and
Multi-Information Display and Platinum receives a 10-inch color
Head-Up Display (HUD) with speedometer, navigation, and Hybrid
System Indicator, standard.
Long trips are a breeze with the new FridgeBox standard on the
Platinum grade and available on Limited. When actively
switched on, the FridgeBox is perfect for helping keep drinks and
snacks cool and easily accessible. Whether you're heading to a
soccer game or on a family vacation, the FridgeBox helps ensure
that refreshments are always within reach for both front and second
row passengers.
Maintaining a clean vehicle has never been easier, thanks to the
integrated vacuum. Standard on Platinum grade and available on
Limited models, the new vacuum is designed to handle the messes of
everyday life. This convenient feature allows for quick cleanup of
crumbs, dirt, and debris, keeping your Sienna spotless and ready
for any adventure.

seats, premium leather-trimmed second-row captain's chairs with
super-long-slide feature and ottomans. The second-row captain's
chairs are heated on the Platinum model, standard. The Limited and
Platinum grades also get a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Toyota Audio
Multimedia system and a 12-speaker JBL Premium Audio system.
