As the prices differences few K. What's the different package and normal package consists of?

Copy paste from page 14:

Suggest you to read up the different models here:

- http://toyota.jp/sienta/grade/

 

Prices can varies across same model due to the different factory options that PI bring in:

- http://toyota.jp/sienta/spec/package/

- http://toyota.jp/sienta/safety/active/

- http://toyota.jp/sienta/safety/passive/

 

Understand the options you want to get, ask the PIs to give you the quote, then you can compare apple to apple.

Realize the front cabin, there is no those normal Centre compartment. Do u guys intent to install one?

[gensity]

Just went to carTimes at ubi.

Their prices seem to be slightly higher than other shop.

 

Is it coz they are more reputable?

Any buddies order from them?

When the back seats (3th row) is not in use, the floor is very uneven. Is there any 3th party floor board or what that can be purchase and put there?

Hi

 

Tried joining fb group but resets everyday if not approved?

 

Not able to see the group, maybe my questions have been answered before there

 

- The gear stick seems to be blocking the centre aircon vent. As in the big head of the gear stick is right in front of the ac blower. Does this reduce air flow to the 3rd row? Does the gear stick head get cold and wet from condensation? Any other issues?

 

- The hybrid version does not seem to have the engine start/stop feature for fuel savings? can owners confirm? is this not necessary for hybrids?

 

- The safety senseC also has a front camera behind the rearview mirror. So the front recording camera has to be mounted lower than the senseC camera. It almost seems the front recording camera is right in the centre of the windscreen?

 

hope owners can comment. keen on sienta ! thanks !

Most of us position e blower upwards for the air circulation, hence not blocking airflow. No other issues.

This start/stop term is mainly used to describe petrol engine.

Hybrid can move using electric motors (without starting the engine). Hence e term is not really applicable to hybrid.

There is space behind the rearview mirror (left and right). Mine is mounted on the right. No issue.

Did not notice that the gearstick obstructs the aircon vent until a forumer brought this up.

 

Design flaw. Aircon vent shd be on top. Hope this can be rectified like the Hyundai Elantra (model before current model), where the aircon vent was shifted up for subsequent production.

Hi Vinceng, this question was asked by gita 3 comments ago and my reply still stands (copy paste):

Most of us position e blower upwards for the air circulation, hence not blocking airflow. No other issues.

Can Sienta owners feedback on the power / acceleration when fully loaded with 7 pax?

 

Kerb weight is quite heavy at 1300 kg for a 1.5l car.

Im driving the old model dont expect it to be sprint when having full load. The new model is nice as the 2nd row is flat unlike the one i drive and the floor is level as the front seats
