SIENNA [photo]
The Sienna continues into 2007 with four trim levels: CE, LE, XLE and Limited. All four models feature front wheel drive (FWD) as standard, while the LE, XLE and Limited can also be equipped with optional all-wheel drive (AWD).

Like many other ’07 Toyota vehicles, the Sienna also gets the new corporate V6 motor, a 3.5-liter V6 that pumps out 266-horsepower and 245 lb.-ft of torque. This motor replaces the existing 3.3 liter V6 across all trim levels, and should help give the Sienna some extra power when fully loaded. A revamped “direct-type” tire pressure monitoring system is also available, while redesigned 17” alloy wheels make an appearance as well. All trim levels (with the notable exception of the base CE model) are now also configured to support satellite radio as a vehicle option.

Toyota is the current market leader in developing gas-electric hybrids, and even sells a hybrid minivan – the Toyota Estima – in the Japanese market. Nothing has been officially announced, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Toyota bring a hybrid minivan to the US market sometime in the next few years.
