About the 2026 Toyota Sienna

Our scoring places the 2026 Toyota Sienna at 8.0/10 overall, which translates to a Recommended rating for this minivan. Its strongest dimension is Safety at 8.9/10, while Performance at 6.5/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a solid all-rounder that delivers across most dimensions without obvious deal-breakers.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. At 8.8/10, reliability is one of this minivan's best cards — few vehicles in our database score higher on this dimension. The 8.9/10 safety score puts it near the top of the class on this dimension; the official trim-level results at nhtsa.gov are worth a final check.

Performance at 6.5/10 is a genuine liability and a score that should factor heavily into any buying decision. The powertrain and chassis dynamics trail class rivals by a meaningful margin — don't overlook it. Tech rates a reasonable 7.5/10: the essentials are covered and well executed, but rivals at the same price often include more as standard.

Priced from $37,991–$49,440, 36 MPG, seating 8, the Toyota Sienna sits in the mid-market bracket of the minivan segment. Value is where it presses its advantage — 8.1/10, meaning the feature set and quality outrun the asking price. As the current model year, it benefits from the latest updates and full manufacturer warranty coverage.

Our take: The 2026 Toyota Sienna is a solid, well-rounded minivan that covers the essentials without obvious deal-breakers. The main caveat is performance — worth checking if those dimensions are priorities for you. For most buyers in this segment, it's a safe, dependable choice.
