<p>The fascinating Sienna Sponge Bob Sqautepants edition will be showcased to the public in grand style at the prestigious 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show, and according to reports it is going to be among the most creatively designed cars out of an original model.</p>
<p>Imagine the thrill of getting an opportunity to view the spectacular 2014 Los Angeles Show and having a sight of Sienna Sponge Bon Edition.

<p>Sienna portrays a fun family car stance, and it is the perfect vehicle to create a Sponge Bob Edition car. The youthful nature of the car is a sight of attraction for the young demographic and a perfect piece to happily cruise across every corner of the city. The young looking nature of the vehicle is inscribed on Sponge Bob edition.</p>
<p>There is no greater form of creativity than to engrave a fantasy movie on to a Sienna car. Images of the Sienna Sponge Bob Edition car are on the web and it looks incredibly colorful like something that is brought out of a sci-fi movie. The cartoon character is inscribed on the front segment of the car, visible on the trendy pair of huge white eyes placed close to each other and on it is cool blue eyelids and watch out for the cool circular intrusion on top. The sculpture of wheel arches is one of a kind and also looks youthful and molded into neat hexagonal structures. The artistically styled slating headlights are covered with layers of vibrant green light.</p>
<p>The top section of the car is blue and the bottom portion is painted with candy yellow color. The blue and yellow shades amazingly merge with each other and makes the vehicle look impressively eye candy and vibrantly multi-hued and there is a trendy light and dark green oval design on the yellow section. The interiors are as magically colorful as the exteriors, the roof is garnished with chic water blue color and the side of doors are decorate with a vibrant blue shade and the cushions are multi-colored as well, covered in classy red, pink and yellow shades.</p>
<p>Every element of Sienna Sponge Bob Edition sounds magical, and lucky ones in America can get a great view of the car all over the country. Such as sight is exclusively rare and a splendid delight for kids, who can expand their creative thinking from a young age itself and the enhanced creativity will be transformed to great depths during adult stages of life.</p>
<p>Let’s hope that many more of such vehicles will be designed in the near future.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Japanese car major, Toyota Motors has unveiled the new updated 2015 Sienna on 17<sup>th</sup> July 2014. With the unveiling of the new refreshed Sienna, Toyota has offered a look at the new version of the popular minivan and its new features. The world’s car leader has stated in a press release that the new revised 2015 Sienna has something on offer for everyone, and it comes with a more up-market interior, enhanced ride and handling, family centric new features as well as the incorporation of new smart technological updates.</p>
<div id="attachment_2849" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 650px"><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/2015-Toyota-Sienna.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2849" alt="2015 Toyota Sienna" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/2015-Toyota-Sienna.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">2015 Toyota Sienna</p></div>
<p>Toyota also revealed that its new facelift 2015 Sienna packs in more stylish, up-market and comfortable interiors with more soft-touch surfaces in its cabin. Toyota cars are also known for their superb safety features, and the family oriented Sienna is no different. Toyota says that the new refreshed Sienna minivan also packs in 8 air bags now as against the 7 airbags in the outgoing model. The 2015 model of the Sienna also features 4 sets of LATCH connectors which further increases the comprehensive safety measures of the vehicle.</p>
<p>The other great features of the new 2015 Toyota Sienna include a panoramic rearview camera as a standard feature, optional leather upholstery, a large 7 inch touch-screen infotainment system as well as a 4.2 inch display in the gauge cluster that can offer turn by turn directions with the instructions from the navigation system closer to the driver’s line of sight.</p>
<p>The new updated 2015 Toyota Sienna also offers more family friendly features which include a Blu-Ray rear-seat entertainment system, a conversation mirror and Toyota’s new Driver Easy Speak feature that is actually a built-in microphone which can amplify the driver’s voice through the car’s rear speakers.

<p>As per the reports of a car journal, the new 2015 Toyota Sienna is a good and updated minivan, but when it comes to the under the hood specifications, then the vehicle would not get many changes in its powertrains.

The engine is mated to a 6 speed automatic transmission, which will remain the same in the upcoming 2015 model as the ongoing model. The vehicle will be offered in both front and all wheel drive systems.</p>
<p>The new refreshed Toyota Sienna is also expected to come with enhanced fuel economy as compared to the current model, but Toyota has not announced anything about it as yet. However, Toyota has revealed that the new revised Sienna will be getting updated stiffer suspension system in order to offer improved ride and handling and an overall more comfortable and enjoyable drive experience.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Toyota a world acclaimed auto firm has a way with comfort and luxury, on the lavish car front there is Corolla Altis, Fortuner and in the comfort segment, is the Highlander and Sienna. On the thought of an amazing family model, Sienna is one car to look forward to. The interior room in Sienna is luxuriously spacious and can stretch to about 17 feet which is remarkable and portrays a typical minivan image. The car looks like a minivan, and about seven to eight occupants can comfortably sit, and the cargo volume is abundant to fit in heaps of bulky luggage.</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Toyota-Sienna.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-2345" alt="Toyota Sienna" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Toyota-Sienna-1024x768.jpg" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>The car is inserted with a potent V6 4 cylinder engine that churns 266hp, the engine is potent enough to push a vehicle as enormous as Sienna. The car is ideal to just enjoy a relaxed vacation and can maneuver kilometers on city and highway terrains. Sienna is reliable on mileage front and yields 25mpg on highways and 18 miles per gallon on ideal city conditions.</p>
<p>An important aspect to note about Sienna is it is the only passenger car in US that is sold in all wheel drive mode. The all wheel drive mode offers a sense of satisfaction and comfort, and the winter conditions are havoc in some countries, with meters of snow perched on roads. The effect is more pronounced in the past few years and few countries have recorded grave negative temperatures. The Sienna can move on meters of snow, since the power is transmitted to rear wheels that enable the car to move swiftly.</p>
<p>Sienna tops the charts in safety segment; the subject used was the 2014 Sienna model. Two models were used, one in the all wheel drive mode and the other model did not have all wheel drive feature. The two cars scored five points out of five in stringent federal government crash exams. This is an improvement from four points recorded for 2013 Sienna model.</p>
<p>Sienna is one car that is worth the purchase, and high on the list by the reputed Consumer Reports Magazine. The magazine has rated the car on top reliability model list. The cost of the basic L front wheel drive model is $ 27,780. The L variant has door locks, power windows, keyless remote entry, cruise control, fabric covered cushions and tri zone air conditioning. The only missing reliable feature is rear view camera.</p>
<p>The initial price of basic 2014 all wheel drive model costs $33,780, and is LE trim, and is fitted with rearview camera. All variants of 2014 model are inserted with V6 double overhead cam 3.5 liter engine matted to 6-speed automatic transmission gearbox.</p>
<p>The middle row has two captain seats, and is known to be super comfy with enormously long seat tracks, reclining backs, armrests on either side. The seat tracks can easily accommodate individuals whose height is more than six feet. The safety equipments used in all trims are electronic stability control and traction control. There are curtain and side airbags, and also driver’s keen airbag to offer immense protection from front impacts.</p>
<p>Toyota Sienna is packed with splendid features, but not too popular in India, Sienna is well suited for India, especially the interior room which can accommodate joint families.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Toyota has always built cars to comfort consumers to no end with its quality models built with essential elements of luxury, technology and style. Recall of vehicles is also reflective of a company’s initiative to rectify measures to satisfy consumers. Even when cars have been put under rigorous tests in terms of safety examinations, and crash tests, there are chances of car parts being non-functional.</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/2011_toyota_sienna.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1520" alt="2011 toyota sienna" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/2011_toyota_sienna-1024x682.jpg" width="600" height="399" /></a></p>
<p>Toyota aims to correct defective gear shift components in its Sienna model and will bring back 70,000 pieces in North American markets. The shift lever is believed to have slipped out, and this could make room for roll always. This has led to twenty one small accidents and around two injuries. There was major property damage as well, the victims suffered small bruises.</p>
<p>The main reason for recall is a defective gear shift which actually rolled out of its apparatus. The entire apparatus is protected by a shift lever, which usually prevents vehicles from rolling back unless the brakes are non-functional. Toyota however realized that the lock must have been damaged and is now requesting customers to bring their cars to the company’s service stations to repair worn out parts.</p>
<p>Most of the recall was from the US which is around 615,000 vehicles, the recall figure from Mexico and Canada are 23,000 and 56,000 and around 300 recalls are for German consumers. The Sienna models recalled were those manufactured in 2009, 2008, and also 2005 and 2004.</p>
<p>According to the company, the shift lock defect is the electrical equipment of the car, if this is non-functional then there are chances that shift lever has slipped out of the pack, if when the brake pedal was pushed upward, and this has enabled the vehicle to roll back. Once the cars are brought to dealers, the gear shift will be fixed with fresh solenoids which are circular coils. With this corrective measure there is no room for future gear shift defects.</p>
<p>This is an excellent move by Toyota to bring back Sienna models to correct gear shift defects. The gear shift has actually fallen off from the apparatus, and this has resulted in roll overs. Although consumers did not suffer major accidents or injuries, the defect is still a serious one, and the aftershock effects will be etched in their minds for a long time. When this defect is fixed, the shock levels faced by customers will be so high that they would take months to get over the shock and drive their cars with confidence.</p>
<p>The Sienna sports classy and sophisticated exteriors and this is an ideal family car, built with world class safety features with airbags fitted on all 3 compartments. The other advanced safety features are daytime running lights, antilock brakes, electronic stability control, driver knee airbag, and one placed separately in lower instrument panel to avoid massive frontal accidents.</p>
<p>Those who are keen to purchase the Sienna, and unsure about whether to buy this car or not after reading about the gear shift defects, this is still a perfect family car to own. Customers can trust Toyota since it has always satisfied consumers. Now with the gear shift tied up with solenoid wires, there would be no chances of another roll back accident.</p>
