Overview & Reviews

The Toyota Sienna receives more standard equipment for 2006. Most importantly, the formerly optional front side-impact airbags and three-row head-protecting side curtain airbags are standard on all Siennas this year. Other changes include new seat fabric for the CE and LE trims and Optitron gauges for LE, XLE and XLE Limited models. The XLE also has dual power front seats this year, and the XLE Limited gains driver-seat memory. There's also a new power-folding rear seat option on XLE Limited 2WD models. In addition, all Siennas receive a new grille, headlamps, foglamps and taillamp clusters. Finally, revised SAE testing procedures have dropped the van's stated horsepower rating from 230 to 215.

• Smooth ride, refined V6, packed with safety and convenience features, seven- and eight-passenger seating configurations, above-average fuel economy, available all-wheel drive.

• A bit too much lean in the corners, seat comfort and noise isolation could be better, expensive option packages.

  Great Van - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By angelaj1 - March 30 - 2:06 am

  We love our van. My only complaint is the tires, but the guy at Discount Tires explained to me that it is because the van is very front heavy. The back tires do fine. I have had to replace the tires on the front 3 times, and I am getting ready to replace the tires on the front. When I replace the move the older tires to the fron. and put the new ones on the back. So, so I will be on my 3rd set of tires. Other than that no complaint. We love it for road trips

  I cant believe a Mini! - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By dorisrez - March 22 - 12:03 pm

  I never thought I would ever drive a minivan. But now that I do, I am so glad it is this one! It is very luxurious and is very accomodating to any busy parent with a bunch of kids! I have only had it for a week and as much as I miss the mpg on my Matrix, I love the room and the space.

  Love this Toyota - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By Brenda - March 21 - 12:36 am

  Ive had this Sienna for about 3 weeks and have put 2500 miles on it. I took my first trip in it and loved every minute of it. I felt very safe on the highway driving 80 MPH and more at times. The handle was very smooth and precise. There was virtually no noise which is very important on a long trip. The seats are very comfortable and relaxing. Ive owned other vans and SUVs and none compared to the Sienna. For once I have purchased a vehicle that Im happy with. Drive it and youll fall in love with it. I had many comments about its good look and comfort.

  Not better than I ever expected - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By San Diego - January 20 - 10:13 pm

  I can admit that Sienna is one of the best minivan in the country and had fun driving. When I drove this car at first, I thought I was driving in heaven, but that does not last long. Why? The performance of this car seemed lower than before, but not bad that much. What made me feel upset was the poor quality sound equipped with my LE 8 passenger car. Comparing with my Accord EX, its hard to say I have no complaints on it. Its unbelievable that Toyota has such a poor quality sound system with 6 CD changers equipment in it.

  Perfect Van - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By magilla895 - November 13 - 1:50 am

  I swore a few years ago that Id never own a minivan. Fortunately, I reconsidered due to the pricing of SUVs and the amount of room a minivan provides. This van is PERFECT for me and my family. Lots of room on the inside (Plenty for my 20 y/o and 6 & 7 y/o). The ride is not like a truck. Very smooth and very quiet. Driving in Belgium we easily hit 90MPH without feeling a thing. Very comfortable! I was a touch disappointed in only having one automatic sliding door, but I can live with that. We added the DVD player which I feel is a must for a Dads sanity with the kids in the back seat. They come with wireless headsets...its just like driving by myself.

  2006 Sienna Limited Fwd rocks - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By GadgetBoy - October 23 - 9:13 am

  Our Sienna Limited Fwd is still in break-in, so mileage cant be fully rated (weve averaged about 14 MPG overall, but have less than 200 miles on the vehicle, almost none on open highway). The Bluetooth integration and backup camera are must-have features, IMHO (for safety alone). The nits are minor.

  Great Van - Keep an Eye on the Tires - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By Kid and Car x 2 - October 17 - 2:50 pm

  I love everything about it. AWD works great in the snow, we live in the mountains so having to replace the tires every 12,000 is something I am used to. Just bought a donut spare to throw in the back on long trips. The kids love it, the wife loves it, and I am happy to get at least 18 MPG. Better than the 11 MPG I got with an Expedition. Highly recommended. Just keep an eye on the tire pressure with the run flats. No biggie. Everyone should keep track of this stuff anyway. The gauges light up fantastic at night. Very satisfied.

  Glad we got it ! - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By John - August 27 - 6:13 pm

  I purchased a XLE with # 8 package (DVD, NAV, etc...) and could not be happier. Looked at all of the usual suspects. I love everything about this van. the interior oozes quality. Fit and finish are superb. Performance is as expected for a vehicle of this size. I am impressed with initial fuel mileage. You cannot go wrong with a Toyota!!

  Glendale Arizona family - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By Excellent on Gas - July 2 - 10:56 am

  We say that this mini van is really good on gas, compared to our dodge quad cab that we have to fill up every week, compared to the every 2-3 weeks on the van. Its a really nice ride, the options they put in is really nice for the price you buy it for. We have looked around and didnt seem to find a better deal than what we found at a toyota dealer in Arizona.

  2006 Toyota Sienna XLE - 2006 Toyota Sienna
  By leiz - June 11 - 2:16 pm

  Traded in FS Nissan ARMADA for 1st Minivan. I was worried about the HP loss from the SUV, but the ride is so comfortable & the gadgets - you gotta love them. 1st road trip to LV, NV. Husband never wants to drive, calls shotgun for 3rd row. I felt like I was driving my Lexus RX 300. Turn radius is awesome compared to RX 300. Love the power 3rd row seats, nav plus sonar, memory seats. I LOVE BLUETOOTH - I dont have to take my phone out of my purse. I also like being able to turn the movie on on nav screen for my son. It is much like a Lexus. If you want luxury go with Sienna, its worth it!
