Toyota Sienna Submodels
Toyota launched the Sienna for the 1998 model year, replacing the quirky, mid-engine Previa with a more conventional front-wheel drive layout based on the Camry platform. It immediately earned a reputation for reliability and comfort. The second generation, arriving in 2004, introduced an optional all-wheel drive system, a key feature that set it apart from competitors like the Honda Odyssey and Chrysler Town & Country. The current fourth generation, introduced for 2021, is sold exclusively as a hybrid, marking a significant evolution for the nameplate.
While not a traditional collector vehicle, the Sienna has found a niche following. Its available AWD makes it highly desirable for buyers in snowy climates or those seeking a capable, all-weather family vehicle. The rise of the "van life" movement has also boosted interest, with enthusiasts seeking out clean, low-mileage Siennas as reliable platforms for camper conversions. Sport-tuned SE and XSE models offer a surprisingly engaging driving experience for a minivan, making them a unique find.
The market for the Sienna is exceptionally broad, reflecting its use as both a daily driver and a specialty vehicle. The average sale price of around $12,500 is populated by well-used second and third-generation examples. The highest prices are typically for new models or professionally built overland and camper vans, which have become a legitimate segment of the enthusiast market.
Buying Tips
- Check the power sliding doors and rear hatch for smooth operation. The motors and cables are known failure points and can be expensive to fix.
- On models with the 3.5L V6 (2007-2010), verify the rubber VVT-i oil line has been replaced with the updated all-metal part to prevent a catastrophic failure.
- For AWD models, inspect for leaks from the transfer case and rear differential. Ensure all 4 tires are matching and have even wear, as mismatched tires can strain the drivetrain.
- Thoroughly review service records. Many Siennas lead hard lives, so proof of consistent oil changes and transmission fluid services is essential for long-term reliability.
Prices range from $405 for project cars to $77,500 for late-model or highly modified examples.
