The award for Toyota Sienna as the Best 3-Row Vehicle for Families

The newest award from the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association (GAAMA)

The 2015 Sienna was named the Best 3-Row Family Vehicle by GAAMA at the association’s annual Family Choice Challenge.

GAAMA conducted evaluations on the vehicles for over two days of at Lake Lanier Islands in Georgia. The Sienna was one of seven 3-row vehicles studied.

The Toyota 2015 Sienna minivan makes its second appearance on the list of Best Family Cars.

It is newly refreshed by improving interior comfort and redesigning the exterior and styling as well. The Toyota Sienna has eight seats for eight passengers. No matter how you set up your Sienna's seats, long seat travel assures your second-row passengers will have plenty of legroom, especially if there's nobody sitting in the third row. This car has something for everyone, for each member of the family. For example kids enjoy Sienna’s Blu-Ray Dual View Entertainment Center, as long as parents communicate with them through Toyota’s Driver Easy Speak system, which makes it easier for third-row passengers to hear what the driver says.

“Our experts considered factors like styling, safety, comfort and efficiency, and the results reflect the best in both innovation and execution,” said GAAMA President Jim Tucker. “The overall winner and each of our category winners are must-drive models for anyone shopping for a new family car.”

Adding to this award from the Southeast automotive press, the 2015 Sienna has also been designated out by safety testing organization IIHS for being the only van in its class with the highest safety rating. The Texas Autowriters named the Sienna the Family cars of Texas.

Kelly Blue book singled out the Sienna for having the top resale value of any van.
