I would imagine one would miss that V6 power when you load it up with adults, kids, and bags for a road trip.

Just wish Toyota would buck their own trend of having the most outdated cockpit technology especially when they charge a premium over the others

My wife and I just retired and we are buying the Sienna for road trips w/ our dogs. Love Pacifica but don't trust it as I had brand new one as a rental one time to drive 500 miles one way and the Navigation went out and AC only worked half the time on very hot days. So Toyota was an easy choice.

Have a new 2024 Toyota Sienna Platinum (because that is the only trim level dealerships happen to receive around here...hmmm funny how that works). Pro's: quiet, smooth, nice cabin console, tons of leg rooms in back seat when you slide seats. Cons: 3rd row is like a cave, no light and you can barely see out the tiny windows (biggest bummer). 2nd row Ottoman calf-rests don't work for taller people. The Heads Up Display is a joke really only reminding you, LIKE A NANNY, that you are going above the speed limit, who isn't and like all the time?! Ground clearance is TERRIBLE, scraping on most dips. Too quiet, you never when the engine is on and have to constantly look at the dash. Just sold our Honda Odyssey and miss it's interior but not the oil/sparkplug problem that many people don't like to talk about.

I know people who owned & operated the 3.5 liter V6 driven across country with basic maintenance how wil this version hold up the hybrid batteries in this one are nickle metal hydride which is less susceptible to temperature like AGM batteries

@lumberjeff0 Ай бұрын

I know a few people who have run into some transmission issues with past years of the Odyssey, and more than a few who have had fits with the Pacifica and constant issues. I never thought I would have a minivan, but I honestly love my '20 V6 Sienna. I do envy the hybrid gas mileage, though.

@DanielleMiller56 20 күн бұрын

Honda Odyssey leak oil and fouls the spark plugs, any honest mechanic will tell you this. This is a fatal flaw of their engine. Stay away after 100,000 miles.

Does the gas power charge the hybrid battery? I've had 2 Pacificas, and the reliability is a nightmare. However, Chrysler backs up its customers when it comes to the warranty. You can't beat stow and go,and the others don't have every row stow and go. I'm curious: Are the seats removable? Unfortunately, I will never buy a 4 cylinder again unless it has electric motors and the horsepower is at least 250.

Good review Ben. BTW, you still also get a V6 with the Plug-in Hybrid Pacifica. Considering that Chrysler has sold about twice as many minivans, so far this year, as Honda and Toyota, and about 3.5 times as many than the Kia, doesn’t seem too many people are concerned about reliability.

@alexvaliansky7707 Ай бұрын

The plug-in hybrid Pacifica has serious reliability problems. If I recall correctly, Consumer Reports gives it a rating of 36 out of 100.

@Gold04 29 күн бұрын

Chrysler pushes out their minivans faster than the competition, availability is why they sell more but their reliability sucks. Most Siennas are sold before they even reach the dealership.

Hey Ben, I’m in the market for a truck and I can’t decide on a f150 limited vs a ram limited , maybe even a tundra limited, but what’s your thoughts on ford vs ram?

@Drg24800 Ай бұрын

Tundra Capstone would be more in line with the other trucks you mentioned.

@RyanDoonan Ай бұрын

I definitely do love the new sienna over the odyssey and definitely would go with the red color of the platinum trim

@djjohnnyparis5183 Ай бұрын

Gas prices are a major reason why the Toyota will outsell the others. The Sienna looks great from the outside, too. Being that it is a minivan, who needs speed? If you're looking to go 90 every day then go get a Sportscar.

I actually just lucked out and scored an unclaimed platinum after calling around. It was even in my desired color! I didn’t originally plan on going all the way up to platinum, but I’m loving the features included after test driving lower trims

Adding: I didn’t have to wait at all. I just happened to luck out- it is possible!

The comments here are comparable to 1st grade comments. The Sienna is for efficiency and reliability. Get a different minivan if it is not your top priority. Nobody understands hybrid technology in autos better than Toyota. Do you know this is the 5th gen hybrid? No other auto maker has the history to backup their claims about hybrid. Starting from 2021, the Sienna received the best hybrid technology and the cost is reflected in the msrp. You get your return on investment (difference in price vs other minivans) in 4 to 5 years due to the better mileage. It's not hard to understand why this is the best minvan

I’d say the odyssey is the most reliable long term since the Kia and Chrysler competitors don’t have good reliability history. Especially the Chrysler PHEV which has had a lot of problems. I would get the odyssey or the sienna over those any day. The cons of the sienna is less power and slower acceleration except maybe at higher elevation when it has help from the battery compared to NA v6. Plus with higher mileage, you might have to start worrying about battery or ecvt replacement which I’m sure wouldn’t be cheap. Another con is availability since it’s very hard to find and the waitlists are long. Last con is it’s made for families and if you have to fill up all 8 seats, the XLE is the only one you can get whereas you get an Elite Odyssey with 8 seats. The obvious pro is the mpg compared to the V6 competitors so you have to decide if the wait is worth it and how going to keep it

Pacifica isn’t bad but screw the Carnival, Odyssey and Sienna are the best choices though however the Pacifica is solid too

There is nothing good about this hybrid engines, drives a crv hybrid and there's nothing to be desired. They will get you a good 38 to 39 mpg but not fun to drive on highway or cruising speeds, sat in one of the sienna and power delivery and road noise was unbearable, like the engine sound was unbearable. The crv hybrid tho was not as bad as the Sienna
