There are quite a number of large families in Malaysia – that much has not changed in the last few decades. But tastes change. People get accustomed to the finer things in life. A compact MPV in 2017 cannot be a barebones people mover – it has to be so much more.
Of all the choices available, the Toyota Sienta makes the most sense. Our winner ticks all the boxes – looks, safety, technology and features are all there. The Sienta offers sliding doors, ample space and air-conditioning for 8 adults, and a modern powertrain for a very reasonable price.
