2025 Toyota Sienna review: Our expert's take

By Mike Hanley

With the Toyota Sienna’s standard gas-electric hybrid drivetrain and available features like long-sliding second-row captain’s chairs and all-wheel drive, the minivan offers features you can’t get in some competitors. Toyota has updated its family hauler for the 2025 model year, and some of the key changes to the Sienna are features-based, furthering the van’s uniqueness in the class. New standard features include an updated touchscreen infotainment system and an advanced rear-seat reminder, while a built-in vacuum cleaner and refrigerator are now available.

Updated Infotainment

All Siennas now have the Toyota Audio Multimedia system, with an 8-inch touchscreen for the base LE trim level and a 12.3-inch display on other trims. The switch to this infotainment system is a net improvement because it adds wireless capability for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity. The graphics are also significantly improved versus the prior infotainment system, but this is the same setup that we’ve had some usability issues with in other Toyotas as far as menu layout and overall intuitiveness.

Keeping It Clean — And Cold

Toyota isn’t the first automaker to put a vacuum in a minivan, as the Honda Odyssey has offered one in the past and the feature is optional in the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica, but the Sienna’s available vacuum cleaner is more conveniently located. Whereas the Odyssey’s vacuum was tucked in the cargo area wall in the back of the van, the Sienna’s is located in the rear of the front center console. The vacuum hose extends, so you should be able to reach all areas of the interior, but it is designed for dry messes only — not wet ones.

The Sienna’s new available FridgeBox offers an updated take on the cooled storage compartments we’ve seen in vehicles for a while now. The FridgeBox is also located on the rear portion of the front center console, and it’s big enough to hold about six 20-ounce plastic bottles. In addition to offering refrigerated storage when you’re driving, the FridgeBox also has a freezer mode. Both the vacuum and the FridgeBox are available on the Limited trim and included on the Platinum.

Still Comfy, New Safety

Apart from some updated interior trim and colors and some new USB-C charge ports, the Sienna’s cabin space and comfort is the same as it’s been. You still have incredible forward and rearward seat travel with the long-slide second-row captain’s chairs — which is good for parents sitting up front who need to reach young children in the second row and bad for preteens who think it’s funny to crunch their siblings’ legs in the third row.

The new standard advanced rear-seat reminder is one of those safety features you hope you’ll never need. It uses a radar sensor in the headliner to detect movement in the second and third rows when the vehicle is locked, ostensibly for a pet or child in a car seat who’s been inadvertently left behind. When movement is sensed, the system issues increasing levels of alerts that include door-lock chimes, flashing lights, horn honks, app alerts, text messages and automated phone calls. The system works with Toyota Safety Connect for app and phone notifications, and the telematics system includes a lengthy 10-year trial, so you won’t have to worry about ponying up extra money anytime soon to retain this aspect of the feature.

Sienna in the Market

The Sienna remains a unique offering in the minivan class, which now has only a handful of models. Toyota says the EPA-estimated gas mileage from the hybrid drivetrain is the same as before, with front-wheel-drive versions rated at 36 mpg combined and all-wheel-drive variants rated at 35 mpg combined. Those numbers are considerably higher than the V-6-powered Pacifica and Odyssey, which are both rated 22 mpg combined, and they’re also better than the new 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid, which is rated 33 mpg combined.

The Sienna’s updates for the 2025 model year don’t radically change this minivan, but it didn’t really need a big rethink, and the more unexpected features like the advanced rear-seat reminder, vacuum and FridgeBox could give families more reasons to consider it over a three-row SUV. I mean, who doesn’t want to be the cool mom or dad who brings ice cream treats to the school pickup line?
