The all-new Sienta minivan ditches the box-like shape of its predecessor for a sporty exterior design inspired by the shape of a trekking shoe. the compact MPV offers up to three rows of seats placed in a unique stadium arrangement, elevated gradually toward the rear.
Featuring a massive front grille as well as front and rear bumper garnishes that connect the lights, the Toyota Sienta is available in eight different body colors, including the new Air Yellow.
There are five optional extra Flex Tones available, which allow owners to combine the body color with contrasting accents on the front grille, mirror caps and bumpers.
There are three different interior colors schemes available, as well as orange accents with satin-plated and piano black ornaments.
The minivan offers three interior layouts: 7-seater, 6-seater, and 5-seater (for wheelchair users). Interior space has been increased in all areas compared to the previous generation model.
There are two engine options available: a 74PS (73hp) 1.5-liter hybrid system and a 109PS (108hp) 1.5-liter gasoline unit which utilizes the Atkinson Cycle alongside Cooled EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) and VVT-iE (Variable Valve Timing-intelligent by Electric motor).
The hybrid returns 27.2 km/L (3.6 l/100 km or 63.9 mpg US) under the Japan’s JC08 test cycle, making it eligible for eco-car subsidies and tax incentives. The non-hybrid Sienta returns 20.6 km/L (4.8 l/100 km or 48.4 mpg US) in 2WD configuration. A “Stop & Start System” is offered as standard.
Advanced safety package
Toyota Safety Sense C is a collision avoidance assist package that uses both a laser radar unit and a single-lens camera to achieve high reliability and performance. It is part of a multi-faceted approach to active safety, and is available as an optional extra on all models.
Pre-collision System (PCS)
PCS uses a camera and laser radar to detect objects ahead of the vehicle. When a potential collision is detected, it prompts the driver to brake with an audio and visual alert. If the driver fails to brake in time, the system automatically applies the brakes, reducing speed by approximately 30 km/h to prevent or mitigate damage from the collision2. The operational range of PCS covers a wide range of speeds of between approximately 10 km/h and 80 km/h.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)
LDA uses a camera to detect white and yellow lane markings. If the vehicle starts to deviate from the lane, LDA warns the driver with an audio and visual alert, thereby helping to prevent lane deviation.
Automatic High Beam (AHB)
AHB helps ensure excellent forward visibility during nighttime driving. It uses a camera to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the tail lights of vehicles ahead, and then automatically switches between high beams and low beams so as not to interfere with the vision of other drivers.
A supplementary function has been added to Toyota Safety Sense C, which detects the forward movement of preceding vehicles. When waiting at a traffic light, if the driver continues to wait after preceding vehicles have moved forward, the driver is prompted with an audio and visual alert.
Wheelchair-adapted model receives official vehicle-type designation
As part of the specially equipped Welcab lineup, the wheelchair-adapted model (Type I) has received official vehicle-type designation, making it easier for customers to register their vehicles, and reducing delivery times. This model includes second-row seating on the passenger side, featuring a slope via which wheelchair users can enter and exit the vehicle while remaining in their wheelchair.
This model boasts a compact body with excellent maneuverability and caters to a wide variety of wheelchairs, including those with reclining mechanisms.
The rear wheels utilize air suspension that enables the vehicle height to be lowered to create a gentle ramp angle of 9.5 degrees. This facilitates the ingress and egress of wheelchair users and reduces the burden on caregivers. In addition, the vehicle height is smoothly lowered or raised back to its original height, contributing to improved passenger comfort.
