When will the Nissan Sienna be domestically produced?
2 Answers
Nissan Sienna was domestically produced in 2022. Below are the specific details about the Toyota Sienna: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The Toyota Sienna is a multi-purpose business vehicle under the Toyota brand, positioned as a mid-to-large-sized MPV. This model features a 5-door, 7-seat layout design. Unlike other MPV models, the Sienna's second-row seats can be two independent seats, allowing for the removal of individual seats to upgrade to an 8-seat configuration. 2. Powertrain: Equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, it delivers a maximum power of 198 KW, maximum horsepower of 269 PS, and maximum torque of 332 Nm.
I've also been keeping an eye on the rumors about the domestic production of the Toyota Sienna recently, and the online buzz seems quite convincing. It's said that GAC Toyota has plans to introduce this model into its domestic production line, possibly around 2025, given that the third-generation Sienna has been selling well. Considering the vast Chinese market, localization could save on import taxes, and the price should be significantly lower than the current one. I guess manufacturers are noticing the rising demand for MPVs, with models like the Buick GL8 and Honda Odyssey already being domestically produced for years and achieving great sales. If the Sienna goes domestic, it's bound to grab a share of the market. The benefits would include cheaper parts and quicker repairs, as you could just head to a 4S shop without long waits. However, we'll have to wait for official announcements since these are just rumors for now. I'd recommend checking car forums frequently for any updates. If it really does go into domestic production, I'd probably be among the first to check it out—who wouldn't be tempted by a more affordable price?
