The 2021 Toyota Sienna (fourth-generation) has been unveiled. Once launched, the all-new MPV will lock horns with models like the Kia Carnival. The upcoming Toyota MPV has been designed, engineered and will be produced in the US. The new-gen Toyota Sienna will be much bolder and muscular in terms of design. 

The 2021 model gets sleeker headlamps, an extensive lower air grille and a sportier bumper up front. The front fascia of the MPV now looks more appealing compared to the previous-gen model.

At the back, the all-new MPV features LED taillamps that remind us of other Toyota cars like Sienta and Prius.
