The Toyota Sienta is a mini MPV with sliding doors currently sold in Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Laos and Thailand. In Kenya and Tanzania, it is a Japanese exported used car. The Sienta was introduced in September 2003.
The Sienta is based on the Vitz subcompact car.
The first generation Sienta was introduced in 2003 in Japan. The car can also be found in Hong Kong, Indonesia and Singapore through parallel imports.
The Sienta received a facelift in 2006, 3 years after its first production. New colors 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.
Powered by a 1.5 L petrol VVT-i engine capable of 110 bhp (82 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 cut the Sienta from the lineup in Autumn 2010 due to its age, despite it still selling quite well. It was reintroduced unchanged (except for renamed trim levels and a new sports model, Sienta DICE, with a different design) in May 2011.
