Where is spare tire on toyota sienna

Of course! The Toyota Sienna does indeed come with a spare tire. It isnt, however, located where it was found in older models. Instead, Toyota opted to house the spare tire in a vertical crevice towards the back of the car. This can be seen in the back cargo hold of the car. Different model years of the Toyota Sienna could have different spare tire instructions and locations. The Sienna spare tire information provided in this post is for Sienna model years Drivers will need specific tools for accessing the spare which can be found in a secret wall panel in the cargo space on the right-hand side.

After pulling back the panel, drivers will be able to access a tire jack, tire bag, and set of tools to access the spare tire. Un-attach the silver adaptor socket and long metal jack handle from the back of the wall panel. In the past, almost every vehicle had a full-size spare tire. However, with gasoline-powered engines becoming more efficient, automobile makers began to move away from permanent spares in order to minimize fuel efficiency concerns and luggage capacity limitations.

This is why spare tires are no longer included in a number of new vehicles. Run-flat tires or a tire repair kit may be used instead. For non-LE trims, they will include a tire repair kit. You may drive worry-free no matter what thanks to all of your bases being covered! Created On October 2, Why should you care about having a spare tire? Back to the original story. All trims are available in either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. I thought it might help to add a visual to the topic.

Each trim level comes standard with a tire repair kit. No spare tire. When you add the spare tire, it is not located where you think it might be located. It is not found under the Sienna as in previous years. Rather, you will find it hiding vertically in the wall of the back cargo area. Out of the way. Like a hidden wall in a haunted mansion from a Scooby-Doo mystery. The only negative about the location of the spare tire involves the middle seat. This reserved cargo area cutout was previously used to store this removable middle seat in the second row.

Now for the many positives. I find the all-new Toyota Sienna to ride smooth and comfortable. It is also quiet at both slower and highway cruising speeds. Plus, people will love that strong fuel efficiency. This just might be the ultimate family road trip vehicle. What do you think of the new Toyota Sienna? Do you plan on visiting a dealership to test it for yourself? Thanks for reading everyone. See you next story when I discuss the 3 things that need to change for next-gen Toyota Tundra.
