In our mix of city and highway driving, we managed 29 mpg with our all-wheel drive Platinum test vehicle. The EPA estimates that front-wheel drive versions of the Sienna should deliver 36 mpg city as well as 36 mpg highway with all-wheel drive examples carrying ratings 1 mpg lower at 35 mpg. 2023 Toyota Sienna Celebrates 25th Anniversary.Our all-wheel drive Sienna Platinum failed to excite us during acceleration testing, requiring 7.7 seconds to reach 60 mph and completing the quarter-mile in 15.8 seconds at only 88 mph these results are similar to what the Pacifica Hybrid managed, but are far slower than non-hybrid examples of the Pacifica we've tested as well as the Honda Odyssey. The Sienna's main rival-the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid-is offered solely with front-wheel drive, but its V-6 engine and electric motors make 260 horsepower. All-wheel drive is available and adds a third electric motor in back that drives the rear wheels. The powertrain consists of a 2.5-liter gasoline-powered four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors that combine to make 245 horsepower. Unlike previous versions of Toyota's family van, the Sienna is offered exclusively as a hybrid. The XSE, like all Sienna trims, comes standard with front-wheel drive but adding all-wheel drive costs just $760, which seems like a worthy upgrade to us. The XSE also comes standard with in-dash navigation and second-row captain's chairs. We're eyeballing the sporty XSE model, which comes with 20-inch wheels, more-aggressive front and rear bumpers, and sport front seats.
