Ask any of our staff and they’ll tell you that minivans are the unsung heroes of the automotive world. They might even add that minivans are the ultimate enthusiast vehicles. why? These owners actually use their vehicles for what they are designed to do. Otherwise, why buy? Ego has no role in owning a minivan.

Consider our 40,000-mile test of this 2021 Cypress Green Toyota Sienna as evidence. He traveled the country several times; transported cargo and equipment; she served as a camera on many photo and video shoots; and a member of our staff even set him up with a tent on the roof and took him on his honeymoon. The Sienna did all of this in relative comfort, and its hybrid powertrain delivered much better fuel economy than the other minivans we tested.

In this video, we look at all the details, from the comfort and functionality of the cabin to the cost of maintenance and what it was like to drive in the winter. We’ll also explain the downsides of installing a hitch, including the reduced departure angle and how annoying the rear collision mitigation technology can be when you have a bike rack installed.

Yes, this video is late – we’re done our test a few months ago—but the fault lies solely with internal planning, as the minivan’s cult following remains unwavering.
