Go Further into the Wild with the 2022 Toyota Sienna Woodland Special Edition

Car buyers often assume that if they need the enhanced traction of all-wheel drive, their only choice is an SUV. In fact, two minivans offer AWD: the Chrysler Pacifica and the Toyota Sienna. 

For 2022, the Toyota Sienna goes even further with the Woodland Special Edition, which provides mechanical enhancements for off-pavement adventures. In addition to AWD, Toyota says it has 18-inch wheels and increased ground clearance over the Sienna’s already generous (for a minivan) 6.37 inches. However, the company didn’t specify what that increase would be.

The 2022 Sienna Woodland SE also provides a tow hitch with a 3,500-pound tow capacity, a 1,500-watt power outlet, and roof rails with crossbars, all of which means you don’t have to leave any of your toys and gear behind. A standard navigation system ensures you reach every destination, and a 12-speaker JBL audio system provides the soundtrack for adventure.

Visually, the Sienna Woodland SE comes with a Midnight Black or an exclusive Cement paint job (because nothing says nature like Cement?). Darkened chrome accents, black exterior badging, and black sport upholstery with unique contrast-color stitching complete the look. 

Because it comes with a standard hybrid powertrain, the Sienna is already environmentally friendly. It averages 35 mpg in combined driving, its 2.5-liter 4-cylinder gas engine supplemented by three electric motors in AWD versions. Total horsepower measures 245. 

Safety comes standard, too. Toyota equips the Sienna Woodland SE with Toyota Safety Sense 2.0, a collection of advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS).

For each Sienna Woodland sold, Toyota will make a $250 donation to the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF), whose mission is to “make the environment more accessible, relatable, relevant and connected to people’s lives.” Toyota will donate a minimum of $250,000. 

Toyota will announce 2022 Sienna Woodland Special Edition prices closer to the off-roading minivan’s fall of 2021 release date.
