I think instead of looking at vehicle allocation by population perhaps look at allocation between the countries based on past Sienna years.
Yes I agree, the dealership did make it clear that it was just an ETA that was subject to change. I understand this because I read the forums here, reddit and other online sources to understand how upside down manufacturing and global supply shortages are. It's also his job as a 'sales professional' to update customers, keep us in the loop and answer when requested. He will answer, but typically copy and paste the same general response and if you push him a bit to do his job, he gets agitated. His stance is that because Toyota isn't giving them information, he won't update us because he knows nothing. My point is even some news, if bad news, is still news. If they tell all the customers on a regular basis that they're getting a van or two a month allocated to them, then it sets expectation. Instead, this dealership or the salesguy chooses to do nothing.
honestly if i'm around 27th and they claim to get 1-2 vans a month, this is at least 2 years out. Keep in mind, my order was for a 2021 and we are on MY2023 now, so i'll probably end up with a MY2025 lol 😥 If something else comes along i'll consider cancelling, because waiting 2-3 years for a Sienna when originally quoted 4-6mo is not acceptable.
Yeah i agree.. i blindly waited for Toyota to do right by me for 14 months before I decided it was time to secure a plan B and C. During this time, I could have found myself in another car with much lower rates to pay. Here I am in present day, no car, everywhere else is 1-2 years out, rates are rising. This i'm more upset at Toyota for as opposed to the dealership, but it is also on Toyota to update their dealers so that this info can be relayed to customers.
There are so many Siennas rolling around the GTA, we definitely get more allocations than anywhere else in the country. There are a few high volume dealerships in the area that seem to get 5-15 Siennas a month, based on what I'm told. I feel sorry for the folks in smaller towns with a single dealership that gets basically no allocations.
That's us right here! Metro Vancouver is like timbuktu compared to GTA's market lol. Btw, 5-15 Siennas per month is what the Tier 1 dealership I ordered from gets in an entire year supposedly.
When you mention Vancouver, then it's not Jet said small town. As I said earlier, my dealer only got 5 Sienna by far this year, so...
lol it's more of a joke, in Toyota Canada's eyes.. we're the equivalent of a small town when compared to the center of the earth 😉
BS, probably trying to scare people into buying at markups.
Nothing yet here. I ordered a XLE from Toyota in Barrhaven in Nov. 21. Order is still “pending fulfillment”.
That's good news right? If the document posted of US pricing is accurate, expect the pricing to be between XSE Tech and Limited.

They said that the anniversary doesn't have the tv nor digital rear view mirror, but still has power inverter. Not sure if that is in the states or not. Hopefully will have pricing soonThat's good news right? If the document posted of US pricing is accurate, expect the pricing to be between XSE Tech and Limited.
2023 Model Production Timing
Does anyone have an inside scoop on timing for 2023 production models? We have been waitlisted since February for a Woodland. I know production for Woodlands have stopped for 2022, but curious if anyone has any insight on 2023 ramp up. My dealer has offered to switch us to another trim if we...
Which dealership is this?
