In January 2004, the second generation of Sienna was unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show . The manufacturing facility was relocated to Princeton, Indiana , and the Georgetown facility was converted to produce the second-generation Camry Solara . To give the revision even more chance of success, Toyota commissioned chief engineer Yuji Yokoya with the project. Yokoya and his family drove the predecessor model over 85,000 km throughout North America to find vulnerabilities.
The new model will continue to be offered in the equipment lines CE, LE and XLE, but in addition came the new top model XLE Limited. All Sienna now have a 3.3 -liter V6 engine, type Toyota 3MZ-FE, which is connected to a five-speed automatic transmission and ensures the classification of the car as ULEV . The automatic selector lever moved from the steering column to the center console and works in a zig-zag pattern, similar to that of the Lexus RX . The new design gives the car a drag coefficient of 0.30. Gas mileage improved to 14.1 l / 100 km urban and 9.6 l / 100 km out of town (with four-wheel drive : 14.9 l / 100 km urban and 10.9 l / 100 km out-of-town).
The Sienna, which has grown significantly over its predecessor, offers a wealth of new equipment details, many of which were taken over by the competition. A good example of this is the third seat, which folds flat into the floor of the car (only for front wheel drive models). She first appeared in the Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country and then on almost every van. With the Honda Odyssey this bank is only one-piece repositionable, while it is conveniently divided at the Sienna in the ratio 60: 40. Also new are the electrically operated side windows in the rear sliding doors, which disappear completely in the door (for the first time on the Mazda MPV), 8 seats (CE and LE only), electrically operated sliding doors and an electrically lockable tailgate (standard on XLE and XLE Limited, optional on the LE).
Standard remote control for door locks, height and tilt adjustable steering column, heat protection glass on the windshield and front side windows, actuators for heating and air conditioning for the rear seat passengers and tires with runflat (only for all-wheel drive) supplied. All Sienna of the model years 2004-2007 also had a trailer hitch with a trailer load of max. 1,600 kg. On request, XLE Limited xenon high voltage discharge lamps, cruise control , front and rear parking sensors , wide-angle mirrors, voice-activated navigation system, reversing camera, JBL 10-speaker audio system and a DVD video system with folding screen for rear seat passengers were available.
Security
The Sienna comes standard with ABS , Brake Assist (BAS), Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD), Traction Control (TRAC) and Tire Pressure Monitoring. Side airbags and side curtain airbags were standard on certain 2004 and 2005 models; since 2006, they are standard on all models. The stability control (VSC), which was initially only available on request with some simpler models, was part of the series from 2008 onwards.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awarded second-generation Sienna a "good" rating in all six categories of head-on collision. Side airbag models also got a "good" side-impact, while the other models achieved only "satisfactory" .

Side impact driver: | 5 Stars |
Side impact rear seat passengers: | 5 Stars |
Rollover (front wheel drive model): | 4 stars |
In 2006, the Sienna was again slightly revised and received a new front, a new side contouring and new taillights. Blue fluorescent electroluminescent OptitronControl elements have been installed in the equipment lines LE, XLE and Limited. The "XLE Limited" was renamed XLE to cause less confusion, and this line of equipment received on request a memory function for driver's seat and side mirrors (also available in the XLE optional) and electrically automatically folding exterior mirrors with built-in LED indicators. Furthermore, a Bluetooth connection and an electrically folding third seat are available on request. Front side airbags and curtain airbags for all three rows of seats are standard, but the audio system for rear seat passengers is no longer available. The power specifications according to SAE regulations are now 215 hp (158 kW) (instead of 230 bhp (169 kW)) and the torque specifications are 301 Nm (instead of 328 Nm). Toyota now allows gasoline with 87 octane for the Sienna.
In 2007, a new 3.5L V6 Toyota 2GR-FE engine with ULEV-II certification was introduced, delivering 266 hp (196 kW) and 14.1 l / 100 km urban and 10, 0 l / 100 km out of town (front wheel drive model), or 14.9 l / 100 km urban and 11.4 l / 100 km out of town (all-wheel drive model) consumed. Limited and four-wheel drive models have new alloy wheels with seven spokes.
In 2009, the Sienna remained largely unchanged, but its prices were lowered despite an additional "Extra Value Package", to make it more competitive. In the Canadian market, the base price fell by a total of CDN $ 1,500 .
