2026 Toyota Sienna

Name: 2026 Toyota Sienna Review
Brand: Toyota

Release Date: Fall 2025

Estimated Price: Starting around $40,000

Thanks to its hybrid powertrain, the 2026 Toyota Sienna gets outstanding fuel economy for a minivan. Available all-wheel drive also gives it an advantage on its rivals. That thrifty engine comes at a cost, though, namely weak acceleration and performance. Still, the Sienna gets enough right with safety, tech, roominess and comfort to make it one of today's top family movers.Read full review

Overview

If you're in the market for a new minivan, make sure the Toyota Sienna is high up on your shopping list. Its standard hybrid powertrain means you'll save at the pump compared to V6-powered rivals, and a healthy list of standard features means you don't have to pay top dollar to get the goodies you want. We expect the Toyota Sienna to carry on sans big changes for 2026 after getting a technology infusion last year that upgraded the touchscreen and infotainment system and added a new radar-based rear occupant detection system. These improvements add to the Sienna's family-friendly bona fides, which include a cavernous cabin and generous small-item storage, especially up front. The Sienna is also notable for offering all-wheel drive, an option more than half of Sienna buyers go for.

Edmunds spotlight: Fuel economy comes standard

The Sienna is the only minivan that comes with a standard hybrid powertrain. It pairs a four-cylinder engine with an electric motor for a total output of 245 horsepower. That's healthy enough for a minivan, but fuel economy is the name of the Sienna's game. The front-wheel-drive version offers an EPA-estimated 36 mpg combined and the all-wheel-drive version comes in at 35 mpg combined. However, in Edmunds' real-world testing, we blew past that figure and noted 42.7 mpg from a front-wheel-drive Sienna. All of this translates to savings at the pump, especially against the gas-only competition like the Honda Odyssey.

Competitors to consider

The Sienna's admirable fuel efficiency, well-executed tech features and a gigantic, family-friendly cabin make it a formidable competitor among the small group of minivans. Beyond the aforementioned Odyssey, the Sienna also rivals the Kia Carnival and Chrysler Pacifica. Last year, Kia added a Carnival Hybrid to the lineup that nearly matches the Toyota on fuel economy, and the Pacifica has a plug-in hybrid variant that gives it an impressive all-electric range. The Odyssey's fuel economy lags far behind, but it feels more agile and pleasurable to drive than other minivans.

What’s it like to live with?

Despite their stigma, minivans excel at family and household duties. Raising the liftgate and opening the sliding side doors makes easy work of handling bulky cargo, even if that bulk includes half the youth soccer team. That's why we spent a year and nearly 20,000 miles with a Sienna in our test fleet. We had a 2021 model, the first year of its current generation, so while it's older than the latest model, most of our observations still apply. Read more about our time with the Sienna here.

Performance

7.5/10

How does the Sienna drive? he Sienna accelerates smoothly but is a lot slower than its peers, taking an extra second to reach 60 mph than most other vans. This slower acceleration isn't evident when you're just cruising around town. But you'll notice it when you're merging onto the highway or going up grades.

The Sienna isn't the most nimble minivan in the class, but it holds its own. It drives more like a car than an SUV. The steering is weighted well to cruise for hours down the highway. It's also light and easy to turn during low-speed maneuvers.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the Sienna? We had no complaints after spending hours in the driver's seat. Its wide range of adjustability gets much of the credit, though this is a common feature in the class. Available ottoman-style footrests in the second row plus a huge range of fore-aft sliding create a business-class-like feel and give the Sienna an edge in second-row comfort. The climate control system is effective at keeping the cabin cozy, hot or cold.

Noise is an area of concern. So long as the engine isn't working hard, the cabin is quiet, even serene. When you ask for power, the whole cabin will know. The engine and continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) drone considerably. Optional in-car voice projection, which sends front passenger voices through the rear speakers and headsets, helps as a work-around. You can save the shouting for when you really need it.

Interior

9/10

How’s the interior? The Sienna pulls ahead of the pack in this area. It sits at a height that makes it easy to slide in and out of. The driving position is excellent and versatile. We're fans of the large central touchscreen with two exceptions: the glare that it throws off in midday sun and some far-side buttons that feel a bit out of reach. All other primary controls are placed logically and function as expected.

There's naturally good visibility out of the cabin. An available surround-view camera system can provide a see-through view of the Sienna to make things even easier. There's also an available digital rearview mirror that solves the issue of seeing past headrests or high-piled cargo in the back.

Technology

8.5/10

How’s the tech? The Sienna's 12.3-inch touchscreen interface is pretty easy to use and responds quickly when you want to change screens or menus. It also comes with wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. Available interior tech features worth mentioning include a handy cabin intercom system, Wi-Fi connectivity, and a generous number of USB ports for all three rows. We found the Sienna's advanced driver aids worked well in our testing. The adaptive cruise control accelerates and brakes smoothly in congested traffic.

Storage

9/10

How’s the storage? All minivans are masters of utility, and the Sienna is no exception. There's a deep well for cargo storage behind the third row that also has hooks on the seatback. The third row can be manually folded and stows almost flat into the floor, and the second-row seats slide far forward, offering a great cargo solution. One big drawback is the second-row seats aren't removable as they are in other minivans, which greatly reduces the maximum cargo capacity.

Storage for personal items is equally good. There are plenty of cupholders, multi-level door pockets, and a large shelf between the front passengers that is perfect for a handbag. For car seats, the attachment points are extremely easy to access. There are four in the seven-passenger Sienna and five in the eight-passenger. Buckles are easy for booster-age kids to use.

Fuel Economy

10/10

How’s the fuel economy? The Sienna gets an EPA estimate of 36 mpg in combined city/highway driving. (All-wheel drive knocks it down 1 mpg.) And as we discovered, it's capable of much more. After nearly 500 miles with a front-wheel-drive Sienna, we vastly outperformed the EPA estimates. We averaged 42.7 mpg overall in our real-world driving.

Value

8.5/10

Is the Sienna a good value? Our Sienna test vehicle wasn't a final production unit, but it felt really well built and was free of squeaks and rattles. Surfaces that are frequently touched — steering wheel, armrests, etc. — are soft-touch and well padded. All these aspects add to the general upscale sense you get from this interior.

Though a base Sienna starts a bit higher than other base models, it's comparably priced when its peers are equipped with features to match. The top trim is a tad more expensive but offers value-added features such as all-wheel drive that some competitors don't. It has a strong warranty for hybrid components and roadside assistance, and it's the only one to offer two years of free scheduled maintenance.

Wildcard

7.5/10

The Sienna gets a lot of the fundamentals right and offers some bonus elements too. Its exterior styling shows some personality, and the interior can be fitted with some neat features such as a built-in vacuum or second-row seats that recline with footrests like you're in an airline business class. It's a minivan but at least it's a pretty cool one.

Which Sienna does Edmunds recommend?

Toyota hasn't released official information on the 2026 Sienna as of this writing. We'll update our recommendation if anything changes, but based on last year's Sienna, we'd recommend the XLE for most buyers. It adds several more upgrades compared to the base model, such as a power liftgate, heated front seats and a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen. You can also order it with the optional rear entertainment system if you want to keep passengers occupied on long trips.
