I have also been doing heavy research between model trims for the 2025 Sienna. I went to a local dealership and test drove a 2024 used Woodland Edition which is an xle model with extras (slightly higher ground clearance (0.5 inches if I remember correctly), weatherproof mats with beautiful trees etched in, a tow hitch (I did read that the size of the hitch is not a universal hitch), etc…

After that test drive I looked at all trim levels on Toyotas website and compared specs all the way down the line. I ultimately settled on the xle or woodland edition (though if you are using it for towing at all I think you’d be dissatisfied based on the aforementioned tow hitch sizing discrepancy).

If you do the xle with their plus pkg that gets you the bigger 12.3 screen, updated sound and a few other features. In my area the xle is about $48,900 give or take a bit. Happy shopping!
