Overview & Reviews
Like other minivans on the market, the 2001 Sienna can be equipped with an on-board entertainment system. Dual power-sliding doors are optional, and the safety-conscious will like the fact that side airbags and a stability control system are available. Sienna's smooth V6 makes more power and torque this year. A rear defroster is standard on all Siennas, while JBL audio, heated front seats and an electrochromic rearview mirror with integrated compass are optional on XLE models. Styling has been tweaked front and rear, four new colors replace four old colors and all Siennas come with a driver-side sliding door.
- Camry genes, excellent crash-test ratings, refined powertrain, optional stability control system, available side airbags.
- Dull styling, small size, lacks optimal utility.

Tried em all- none compare to the Sienna - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By Cassie - December 28 - 7:50 amWe purchased an 01 brand new. I have loved it from day one. It has never given me a problem. We have done nothing to it but the normal oil changes, transmission fluid changes and brakes. Outstanding vehicle. In the market for a new one and not happy with the expensive option packages for 05. Spent all day yesterday test driving all the competition- conclusion: yes some are much cheaper but theres no comparison in looks, comfort, drive to the toyota. Back to the toyota dealership we went and made a deal. Im getting another toyota sienna.

By larsonfamily - July 28 - 2:00 amI have 3 kids and the ability to move the last row of seats forward was fantastic. I can take out the buckets, move the back row forward, and put the dog and tv in and we are ready to travel.

Sienna LE 2001 - Excellent Minivan - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By innovations2 - July 27 - 10:00 amNeeded a vehicle that could carry multiple passengers plus camping gear and 2 large dogs. Our Sienna has been extremely reliable. We just carried 3 mountain bikes strapped down to the roof rack and brought along our two 80+ lb dogs and 3 kids plus all our camping gear. The van is a great long distance cruiser. The van scored better in safety than almost all other vans. No road noise.

A funny story about my beloved Sienna - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By SexyMechanicinHeals - May 1 - 4:36 pmI have owned many cars in the past & not one has ever made me this happy as an owner. I am also an amateur mechanic. My story is classic, because I am a smart-a$$ & it was fun. Last summer I was driving behind a cherry red mustang with the top down. Sweet. Anyhow, the driver was kind of a jerk, ignoring the admirers on the sidewalk calling to him, "What year?" Fed up with this mans "Holier than Thou" attitude, I patted the side of my gray minivan, smiled wide & said, "2001! Aint she a beuat? Awesome mileage & drives like a dream!" The side of the street guys were in stitches as I waved and pulled away slowly and proud. I LOVE THIS VAN! My next one will just be a newer version!

Toyota Sienna - Excellent mini van - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By Satisfied consumer - February 26 - 1:00 pmDrives like a car. Purchased for its reliability and safety rating. I wanted something safe for passengers (children in the car.) It has lived up to all expectations in terms of comfort, performance and reliability. We are on the highways a lot here - no complaints about acceleration. Excellent turning radius. After five years, still like the way it looks, inside and out.

Great Car! - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By Dagwood55 - December 14 - 2:10 pmWe bought our 01 Sienna new in June of 02. No problems with it at all. I tested several other minivans and was astonished at the power of the 3.0L V6 in this car and thats the principal reason I bought it. It also impressed as being quiet, comfortable and solid. After 62K miles, its just as quiet as the day we bought it. Weve gotten 26mpg on many long trips, which seems good for a van. Excellent features and sound system. The drivers side electric mirror has become a little balky and the power door needs a minor adjustment. NO other problems. Our experience with this has led us to buy two more Toyotas since, which are also great cars.

Toyota Sienna 2001 - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By Ros123 - January 14 - 11:33 amThis car has been so reliable that I am constantly amazed. Once in a while, I take it in for an overall safety check and except for routine items that need changing in any vehicle, theres never anything wrong!

Sienna -- Perfect moving appliance - 2001 Toyota Sienna
By TIPSTER - January 29 - 2:00 amLove the mini van -- can not go wrong. May not have the excitment of others but so what. I want a family car that is reliable, safe to drive and is decent in every other area. I know the design of the Toyota is a little dated and it can not fit a 4x8 wood sheet in the back, but when was the last time you needed to haul whole plywood sheets around. It has plenty of use for 99% of the time. We tested the Chryler and it had a plusher ride but came up way short in many other area.
