You are unequivocally correct 😜

The reality is that the Sienna cargo volume is only smaller because its "behind the 1st row" total cargo volume stat has to include that its 2nd row seats are not removable in the Sienna. The only reason the other vans show that they have significantly larger cargo volume is because they are measuring with the 2nd row stored (chrysler, although the pacifica hybrid cannot store them either) or removed completely, Honda/Kia. It's technically correct that the Sienna has less cargo room because those 2nd row seats are not built to be removed, but MOST people aren't trying to use their minivans as literal cargo vans. Most people are going to use the space behind the 2nd row with the 3rd rows stored... and in this more typical usage, all 4 vans are very similar.

You two are hilarious! Loved the review.

Thanks so much! 🙏🏻

I'm going to outfit mine for living in, AWD to take me off the road and I'm going to lift it 3 inches, offroad and beach and mountains for me. I used to drive my Prius v offroad sometimes very carefully even with its low clearance. I slept in the Prius wagon as my mini rv for thousands of miles of cross country trips, Nevada to upstate New York to South Carolina, through Texas, slept at a campground on the gulf in Alabama. I'm going to spend a lot of time living in it. This has a LOT more room for me to move into it! And it's rated to tow 3500 so I'm going to add a hitch back there, maybe a platform for storage, haven't decided yet.

We try to keep each other in check 😂

You can't beat a minivan. We considered the the sienna, Pacifica and Carnival and went with the Pacifica limited of all things. We will see what reliability ends up being like but we actually liked it the most. Hard to beat the stow and go system. The Toyota was the second option but just didn't like the styling. Couldn't bring myself to trust a kia, but I know that's in my head. Not that it would have mattered because they had one base model on the lot for us to look at but couldn't test drive it because it was sold. Sorry but if I can't test drive a $60,000 vehicle I'm not buying it no matter what else I liked.

This is true. I really like the Pacifica plug in when I had it. It was the best all around package in my opinion, but reliability is certainly a concern versus the Sienna.

There are all kinds of benefits to be had from watching this channel.

minivans are awesome vehicles. Luxury, space, and finally with a hybrid you can get decent gas mileage. Here's to hoping every Toyota will get a 300 hp plug in hybrid option.

More plug in hybrids the better.

Ok.. when you make the pacifica a hybrid.. how much space does it have then? Carnival doesn’t come in hybrid or awd Does Oyssey have hybrid and if so whats the cargo space in the hybrid model?

@jax1079

Жыл бұрын

Pacifica has the same amount of space in hybrid trim. The EV components take up the space under the second row floor, so you lose the trick folding seats. It's worth it in our opinion. Carnival doesn't have either. Odyssey doesn't have a hybrid mode. The Sienna is probably more reliable long term and nearly as efficient. Hope that helps!

@JAX Automotive that's what I mean, if the Pacifica 2nd Row no longer fold/hide in the hybrid trim, it won't have the same 140 as the non hybrid that does fold the seats into the floor.

@JAX Automotive I use to own a Dodge Caravan which seems to be near exactly what the new pacifica is. Considering it wasn't hybrid, all seats folded away giving me 140'ish ft of space.. but with that 2nd row up. I didn't have that same space. I do like the Reliability, Range & AWD of the Sienna

No acoustical glass like in the limited as well as platinum which helps with outside noise. Wish SEL came with that glass.

Great point

The sienna is not really smaller . That cargo number of 101 is because the middle captains chairs are not removable.

This is true... but then it IS smaller because they can't be easily swapped for maximum cargo space.

The lady at the beginning doesn't even know it's a hybrid and doesn't even know how hybrids work. And she doesn't even know the difference between the xse and the other trims. Lol she needs to watch the reviews for this vehicle rather than doing the review herself. A great video otherwise 👏...love everything else about this review and will for sure watch other car reviews on your channel. This is a very nice color for the sienna as well.
