Sienna differentiates itself with four-cylinders

After a major redesign last year, the Toyota Sienna continues to prove that it’s the premier import minivan on the American car market today. Unique to the minivan segment, the 2012 Sienna is available with an efficient four-cylinder engine that achieves the affordable efficiency and sufficient performance that American families have come to expect. The four-cylinder option gives drivers a more affordable package, though the 2012 Sienna is also available with a V6 engine as well. Find out why, among new and used cars, Gurnee drivers choose Sienna.

Though the four-cylinder minivan is unique to the Toyota line, it is hardly the sole characteristic that makes the Sienna special. The 2012 Sienna gives drivers the choice between a four-cylinder and six-cylinder engine (both front-wheel drive), as well as 7-passenger or 8-passenger seating depending on their needs. The 3.5-liter V6 is good for 266 horsepower, 244 foot-pounds of torque and an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 18 mpg city / 25 mpg highway.

 The 2012 Toyota Sienna (4-cylinder)

• 2.7-liter engine
• 187 horsepower / 186 foot-pounds torque
• Six-speed automatic transmission
• EPA-estimated 19 mpg city / 24 mpg highway

The availability of a four-cylinder option is noteworthy for two reasons: it’s more affordable and therefore available to wider customer base. The money you save on the engine can also be redirected toward some of the new features and enhanced functionality that make the Sienna top-dog in the minivan category.

The Sienna makes stowing cargo and loading passengers easy with available dual power sliding side doors and a power lift gate with jam protection. Inside, three-zone climate control and an available premium entertainment system will keep the kids comfortable and placated during those long rides where driver concentration is a priority. And because safety is always at a premium on the road, the 2012 Sienna comes with the Star Safety System that includes Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control, ABS, Smart Stop technology, Driver and front, passenger, front seat-mounted side, driver’s knee and all-row side curtain airbags.

It’s safe, it’s efficient and affordable, and it’s the only minivan to be offered with a four-cylinder engine option. There are plenty of reasons why the Sienna is the top import minivan among new and used cars. Kenosha drivers can count on Classic Toyota to help them find the 2012 Sienna that is right for them and their families.
