Honda Cars : 2011 Toyota Sienna Spied again! | 2013 New Honda Car Reviews 0

Uh oh. I hear foot steps....





Earlier this year our spy photographers spotted “test mules” of the next-generation Sienna minivan. While most of the sheet metal was from the current Sienna body, it had been heavily modified around the hood, front fender and the entire rear quarter panel – making room for the new chassis underneath.

There was good reason for all this hacking; a new chassis is underneath. For the 2011MY, the Sienna will join the Camry, Prius, Rav4, Venza, Highlander and many more on Toyota’s ultra-flexible “MC” platform.

However, these newest photos appear to be an early running prototype – which explains the yards of camouflage covering every inch of the sheetmetal. Unfortunately our shooter was caught off-guard with the sudden appearance of a Toyota convoy and only had time to grab his cell phone/camera – but “some pictures are better than no pictures.”

While the final styling remains a mystery, some cues from the 2006 Toyota F3R concept may make it into production. Production of the ‘11 Sienna will start in January of 2010 at Toyota’s Princeton, Indian plant — the plant formerly charged with Tundra production.
