Toyota Kenosha Dealer Feels 2011 Sienna May Be Just What You And Your Family Need

Moving away from that stereotypical mini van image

, the 2011 Sienna is described by some as looking and driving more like a sedan. In fact, one wacky internet commercial for the Sienna has a cool young couple hauling their kids around town as they sing the praises of the new Sienna. The nerdy dad even has a nickname for it his swagger wagon.

Cheesy as all this may sound, the 2011 Sienna is sleeker than any mini van to hit the market so far. With a sport SE model complete with side skirting, 19-inch alloy wheels which come standard, smoked tail lights and a sport-tuned suspension it comes off as stylish and fun. Add to that superior safety features, a roomy interior and a more fuel-efficient four-cylinder engine and it totals a hip-to-be-square ride. Toyota Kenosha dealers hope this model will have a wide appeal.

Standard is the four-cylinder engine with a 187-hp 2.7-liter gets 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Also available is a 3.5-liter V6 averaging 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. Both have a six-speed automatic transmission. Buyers of Antioch used cars will appreciate the fuel efficiency of this family vehicle.

With five grades from a base Sienna to a Limited, with LE, SE and XLE in between, the Sienna come with some fun options. A rear-seat Dual View Entertainment Center which uses side-by-side displays to create one 16.4-inch wide screen is capable of splitting into two individual screens which can use input from separate sources. Seen from the third seat, it can be operated from anywhere in the vehicle.

Gurnee used car dealers have a wide selection of safe pre-owned vehicles, including mini vans. Of course even a cool mini van needs safety features and the Sienna has seven standard airbags. The frame is a bit wider and shorter and the drive is smoother, handling more like a car than a mini van. ABS, electronic brakeforce distribution, traction and stability control and brake assist are all standard as well. There is also the addition of a 180-degree panoramic camera to work while backing up in conjunction with the voice-activated DVD-based navigation system.

Deeply cushioned captains chairs are standard and comfortable. Weighing 49 pounds each, they can be removed to allow for large transports. Seat bottoms also tilt up and slide forward up to 25 inches for easy access to the third seat.

Optional second-row captains chairs, weighing in at 75 pounds, boast lounge seating and footrests. Thats right, footrests. Dad wont argue about who drives this mini van. He will be content to kick back in the second row. Third row seats can be stowed and retrieved with one hand, or substitute the power-operated third row seat.

Dealers of Gurnee used cars remind customers that some upgrade models also have options like a pre-collision system, radar-based cruise control, emergency assistance button, roadside assistance and stolen vehicle location. Toyota also is hinting that a gasoline/electric hybrid mini van is in the works. Wont that make for an interesting YouTube commercial? Toyota Kenosha dealers hope you will tune in to their great deals.

Toyota seems to have the formula for todays jaded mini van buyers. One Toyota designer identified it as cool, comfort and convenience. Cost may be the fourth c that determines whether we are willing to put aside our aversion to mini vans. Sienna ranges from $24,260 to $39,770. It appears Toyota has truly come up with something for every budget and every lifestyle. Swagger on!
