  1. 1. Toyota Sienna (2025)

    Hybrid-only family minivan with seating for up to 8

    The 2025 Toyota Sienna remains the practical, family-first minivan built on Toyota’s modern platform and is notably the only minivan in its class to feature a standard hybrid powertrain (with AWD available on some trims). It seats up to eight and benefits from interior-focused updates for 2025, including a radar-based rear seat reminder and revised interior appointments. In top trims, a built-in minifridge and an onboard vacuum enhance family convenience, while the overall ride remains smooth and refined for daily errands and long trips. The Sienna’s efficiency is class-leading among non-plugin hybrids, with EPA ratings around 36 mpg combined for front-drive models and strong performance with AWD as needed. Safety and driver-assistance features are robust across trims, and Toyota’s reputation for reliability strengthens long-term value in the global market. This model is especially appealing to families seeking economy, space, and practical urban-to-road versatility.
