The Toyota Sienta (Japanese: トヨタ・シエンタ, Hepburn: Toyota Shienta) is a mini MPV with sliding doors manufactured by Toyota. It was introduced in September 2003, based on the Vitz/Yaris subcompact car, and is available at all Toyota dealerships in Japan. The Sienta is sold in Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Taiwan, Laos, and Thailand. As of 2022[update], it is positioned below the Noah/Voxy and above the Roomy in Toyota's MPV lineup in Japan. In Indonesia and Thailand, it serves as an upmarket alternative to the Avanza and fills the gap between Avanza and the larger Innova.

The "Sienta" name is derived from the Spanish word "siete", which means "seven" (referring to its maximum passenger capacity) and English word "entertain".

First generation (XP80; 2003)
Summarize
Perspective
The first generation Sienta was introduced on 29 September 2003 in Japan, which is the only market it was sold in. The car can also be found in numerous other countries through parallel imports. The Sienta combines two platforms: the front half uses the smaller Vitz/Yaris' NBC platform, while the rear half uses the larger MC platform of the Corolla Spacio (E120).
The Sienta received a facelift on 16 May 2006, three years after its introduction. The grille was given a transverse bar and the taillights were redesigned, with three ribbons and a round element rather than the original design's eight ribbons. New colours were added, such as Apple Green, Gun-Metal Grey, and Metallic Blue. Another upgrade found on the facelifted models is double electric-powered sliding doors. At the time of the facelift, production was moved from Toyota's Takaoka plant to Daihatsu's Kyoto plant.
Powered by a 1.5 L VVT-i petrol engine capable of 110 PS (81 kW) at 6,000 rpm, the Sienta comes equipped with CVT. ABS and EBD are standard.
For the 2007 model year on Japanese models only, G-BOOK, a subscription telematics service, is offered as an option.
Toyota temporarily stopped selling the Sienta in the third quarter of 2010 as sales had slowed and it was to have been replaced by the new Toyota Passo Sette. As the Passo Sette proved not to be particularly successful, Toyota listened to the demands of their customers and sales of the Sienta resumed in May 2011.[3] The reintroduced model did not feature any significant changes aside from renamed trim levels and a new, sportier model, the Sienta Dice (stylised as "DICE"), with a different design with squared off headlights. The taillights were also redesigned, removing the circular element. Production continued until June 2015.

Perspective
_1.5X_van_(2017-11-27)_01.jpg)
The second generation Sienta debuted on 9 July 2015. It ditched the box-like shape of its predecessor for an updated exterior design inspired by the shape of a trekking shoe.[7][8]
The minivan offers three interior layouts: 7-seater, 6-seater, and 5-seater (for wheelchair users). Interior space has been increased in all areas compared to the previous generation model. There is also a hybrid variant, which returns 27.2 km/L (77 mpg‑imp; 64 mpg‑US) under the Japanese JC08 cycle test, making it eligible for eco-car subsidies and tax incentives. The non-hybrid Sienta returns 20.6 km/L (58 mpg‑imp; 48 mpg‑US) in FWD configuration. A “Stop & Start System” is offered as standard.[9] The second generation Sienta is also the first to be sold in Hong Kong and is also available in Singapore.

Markets
Japan
The Sienta was available in X, G, Hybrid X, and Hybrid G trim levels in Japan.
Indonesia
The second generation Sienta was launched at the 24th Indonesia International Motor Show on 7 April 2016. Production of the Indonesian-spec Sienta at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indonesia plant in Karawang, West Java began in late June 2016 and sales began on 26 July 2016. Initial trim levels were E, G, V, and Q (equipped with body kits). To meet the standard geological conditions in Indonesia, it is 20 mm (1 in) higher than the Japanese market Sienta. The shift knob location also moved to the floor to accommodate the 6-speed manual transmission, as well as the grip handbrake. The air conditioning knob was also redesigned.
Some visual differences as compared to the units sold in Japan were that it does not feature the “Sienta” badging embossed on the tailgate handle, instead, the model badge name is on the tailgate itself, and an additional rear foglamp is featured center mounted on the rear bumper edge. It uses a 2NR-FE 1.5-litre Dual VVT-i engine. The Modellista body kits were also available as dealer-installed options, which is badged as "Limited".
The facelifted model dropped the E trim from the lineup, followed later by G trim.[10]
On 17 August 2020, the Welcab model based on the V trim was introduced.[11][12]
The Sienta was pulled off from Indonesian market in early 2023.[4]

The Malaysian-spec Sienta was launched on 17 August 2016, and is fully imported from Indonesia. Two trim levels are available, G and V.[13][14] It was discontinued in late 2019.[15]
Singapore
The Sienta is available both from Borneo Motors (Toyota's authorised dealer in Singapore) and parallel import distributors since 2016. V and G variants are available from Borneo Motors, with similar specifications as with the Indonesian model, and are available with the 1.5L 2NR-FE Dual VVT-i engine; hybrid models are only available from parallel importers.

It is manufactured in Guanyin, Taiwan, and it is produced and sold as a left-hand drive vehicle. The top-of-the-line adds dual beam LED headlamps, LED tail lamps, 6 airbags, a head-up unit, dual powered sliding rear doors, colour-screen trip meter, reversing camera, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and transmission knob, and a double layer of front windshield as the top of the standard features.[16]

Thailand
The Sienta is available in Thailand in two trim levels, 1.5 G and 1.5 V. The top-of-the-line V trim adds dual beam LED lamps, push start and stop button, smart entry, Optitron trip meter, and automatic front AC on top of the standard features.[18]
