Toyota has introduced an updated version of the compact Sienta minivan, revising its equipment, color palette, and list of available options. The changes did not affect the car's design, but they made the trim levels clearer, and some versions better adapted to operation in cold climates.

The main innovation concerns the E-Four hybrid modifications. All all-wheel-drive versions now come standard with a cold-weather package, which was previously offered as an extra. For buyers in regions with harsh winters, this means richer basic equipment without the need to choose additional options.

Exterior changes are minimal but noticeable. Toyota has standardized the design of the exterior mirrors – now all trim levels use black housings. The manufacturer has also completely revised the body color palette. Scarlet Metallic, Beige, and all two-tone paint options have been removed from the range. Instead, a new Clear Beige Metallic shade has been introduced, which will be available for all versions of the model.

At the same time, the company has reduced the list of additional equipment. The digital key, rear camera cleaner, and alloy wheels for the G trim have been excluded from the options list. In addition, the gasoline Z version has lost the function of contactless opening of the sliding doors.

Despite the revision of equipment, the technical part remained unchanged. The minivan is still offered with a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with 120 hp, as well as a hybrid power plant developing 116 hp. In the hybrid version with the E-Four system, the rear axle is connected by a separate electric motor, increasing stability on slippery roads.
