Discover the 2020 Toyota Sienna
Exterior Design
The first advantage that the 2020 Sienna enjoys over the 2020 (sic) Grand Caravan is without a doubt its design. While the Dodge has a rather sober appearance, the 2020 Sienna is sporty and modern, and simply exudes style. It stands out with its sculpted front, large grille, forward wheels up to 19 inches in size, power tailgate, panoramic moonroof and power sliding doors, to name a few.
Cabin Comfort
Once again, the 2020 Sienna takes the edge over its American rival, with a huge amount of comfort features and technology! Among these are the SIRI system, advanced voice-recognition, Apple CarPlay compatibility, heated seats, Toyota Connected Services bird’s eye view camera, touchscreen display and much more. What’s more, it also offers 3-zone climate control, which you won’t find in a Grand Caravan. The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Lane Departure Alert are also found aboard the Sienna.
And in terms of cargo space, the Sienna wins gold once more with 4274 L when the rear seats are stowed, compared to 3973 L in the Grand Caravan. The Sienna can comfortably sit up to 8 passengers depending on its configuration, while the Dodge minivan has a maximum of 7 passengers.
A More Powerful Engine
While the 3.6 L V6 engine in the 2019 Grand Caravan produces 283 horsepower and 260 lbs-ft of torque, the 3.5 L V6 engine in the Sienna is more powerful, with a total of 296 horsepower and 263 lbs-ft of torque. Their towing capacities are nearly identical, and range between 1500 and 1600 lbs depending on the model. Moreover, the Sienna takes a comfortable lead over its rival by virtue of being the only minivan in Canada with All-Wheel Drive!
