Does the 2024 Toyota Sienna have stow and go seats?
The 2024 Toyota Sienna does not use Chrysler's Stow ’n Go seating. It offers a fold-flat seating arrangement that maximizes cargo space without the floor-stowed design, with options for second-row captain’s chairs or a bench and a 60/40-split third row.
Understanding Stow 'n Go vs Toyota's seating approach
Stow ’n Go is a trademarked seating system used by Chrysler minivans in which seats fold into floor wells and can be stored under the floor, creating a fully flat loading surface. Toyota’s Sienna uses its own configuration: seats fold into the cargo area floor or lay flat to expand cargo space, but they are not stored in underfloor compartments.
Key differences between the two approaches include how the floor space is recovered and how the seats are stored, along with how configurable each minivan is for passengers versus cargo.
- Stow ’n Go folds seats into floor panels with underfloor storage in Chrysler minivans.
- Toyota Sienna folds seats into the rear cargo area (not underfloor) to create a flat load floor when needed.
- The Sienna offers flexible second-row configurations (captain's chairs or a bench) and a 60/40 split third-row seat.
- Overall, Sienna provides similar cargo-flexibility but via Toyota's system, not Stow ’n Go.
In short, while the Sienna provides a flat cargo floor when seats are folded and flexible passenger/cargo layouts, it does not employ the floor-stowed Stow ’n Go mechanism.
2024 Sienna seating and cargo specifics
Seat configurations by trim and layout
The 2024 Sienna can be configured for 7 or 8 passengers depending on trim. Second-row seating is available as either two captain's chairs or a three-person bench, while the third row is a 60/40 split that folds flat into the cargo area to maximize loading space.
- 7- or 8-passenger capacity depending on trim
- Second row options: captain's chairs or a 3-person bench
- Third row: 60/40 split folds flat into the cargo floor
- Folding seats create a long, flat loading area for bulky items
These configurations provide substantial cargo versatility, but they are not the floor-stowed seats offered by Stow ’n Go.
Takeaways for buyers
If you specifically want the floor-stowed seating style associated with Stow ’n Go, the Sienna does not deliver that feature. It does, however, offer a competitive fold-flat seating system that maximizes cargo space and provides flexible passenger arrangements across different trims and configurations.
Summary
The 2024 Toyota Sienna does not include Chrysler's Stow ’n Go seats. It provides fold-flat seating with a flat cargo floor when the seats are folded, along with 7- or 8-passenger configurations and second-row options (captain's chairs or bench) plus a 60/40 split third row. This design delivers versatile cargo space without the floor-stowed mechanism used by Stow ’n Go.
