Top Safety Pick for Minivans: Toyota Sienna
Priced at between $22,955 to $36,930 MSRP, the new 2004 Toyota Sienna rates five stars across the board from NHTSA, and a "Best Pick" from the IIHS. Though side airbags are not offered as standard equipment, the Sienna was the only minivan tested to receive top marks from both crash test outfits. Close on the heels of the Sienna is the Honda Odyssey, though it did not rate as highly as the Sienna at the IIHS. The Odyssey, however, does offer side airbags as standard equipment but the base model price of the Honda is approximately $1,500 higher than the base version of the Sienna. The Sienna also offers all-wheel drive on some of the higher priced models, and has an Estimated Market PriceTM between $22,674 and $36,468.
