2008 Toyota Sienna Specification- Fuel Economy
Ever since the last makeover that took place four years ago, the Toyota Sienna has been a top choice as far as the minivan segment is concerned. The 2008 Toyota Sienna is roomy, comfortable and well built and it makes the perfect choice, especially if you have a big family. There are no significant changes for this year. Smooth and powerful V6 engine, comfortable ride, along with an abundance of convenience features and a choice of seven- or eight-passenger seating arrangement, help in making this minivan a bestseller.
Excellent Fuel Economy
There is only one engine offered by the manufacturer for the 2008 Toyota Sienna nameplate. However, the standard DOHC 3.5L V6 engine is relatively good as compared to 3.0 liters to 3.3 liters. This V6 engine generates 266 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 245 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,700 rpm. Both the horsepower and torque are much more than the 2003 version. Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (Dual VVT-i) system operates on both the intake and exhaust valves to ensure optimal performance and efficiency at all engine speeds. This Toyota Sienna engine becomes more powerful in nature when mated with a five-speed automatic transmission with intelligence (ECT-i). The fuel economy for all the models is excellent, with EPA city/highway gas mileage estimates of 17/23 mpg for front-wheel-drive models and 16/21 mpg for all-wheel-drive models.
The Fuel Economy information can be summarized as:
- Fuel Capacity - 20.0 Gallons
- Fuel Economy (Average) - Not Available
- Fuel Economy (City) - 17 Miles per Gallon
- Fuel Economy (Highway) - 23 Miles per Gallon

As the prices for fuel have been increasing every few months, it becomes more important to know about the fuel economy of the car, for the overall maintenance. Toyota Sienna maintains a good name for itself in this section. The present line-up hits the road with style but still manages to maintain your budget.
