The rear shot of the new generation Toyota Sienta! Only this picture available at the moment, i will update once i had it!
For your information, the new Toyota Sienta is designed and manufactured by Daihatsu and will be sold under both Daihatsu and Toyota brand!
Another spyshot, is this the new Toyota Sienta? Unsure. But the newspaper claim it as Toyota Sienta being assembled at Takaoka production plant in Tokyo City, Japan. (Source: www.ohio.com/business/19202814.html ) *UPDATE: It is TOYOTA RACTIS AND PORTE being assembled, not Toyota Sienta!Thanks reader anonymous pointing this out! My mistake for not verify the source first before posting. =P
The new Toyota Sienta will use Toyota Passo/ Perodua Myvi extended chasis! In another words, this resemble the earlier rumours i get from Mr5zal where the new MPV might based on Myvi / viva platform! The overall lengh of this new Toyota Sienta are expected to remain as 4100mm.
According to the magazine, the front of this Sienta will look like the Toyota Wish. While that, the tail lamp will have a vertical design extending from top to down as you can see at the picture above! For your information, Proton MPV also having similiar tail lamp design. Sliding door function of this Sienta are expected to be maintained.
Engine wise, this MPV is powered by 1.5 engine which is the same one use in Toyota Db. However, if it comes to Malaysia as Perodua MPV, Perodua might use Toyota Avanza's 1.5 engine in it to save cost. The closest rival of this MPV will be the Honda Freed that also has 1.5 engine. The 1.5 engine in this Toyota Sienta will be sufficient as it is 6 seater MPV.
Honda Freed
So in conclusion, there are highly probable that the coming Perodua MPV might based on the new generation Toyota Sienta since the Toyota Sienta are using same chasis with Perodua MYVI!
Perodua MPV is expected to be launched somewhere around September 2009 while the Proton MPV will be out in March 2009. Since there is only 1 year away from launching day, i believe we should see more information leaked soon. So lets wait by patient to see what Proton and Perodua offer for their MPV model.

The cars assembled in the photo are Ractis and Porte.
The detailed photos of MPV model on which Perodua most probably will base on were leaked on some magazines in Japan yesterday.
Here are the details from the photos:
-centre meter panel
-no sliding door
-rear lamp on C pillar (shape like Proton MPV)
-length at 4180-4190 depends on grade
-side view resembles Nissan Note but higher (1620mm)
-front mask resembles wish but head lamps resemble Daihatsu Move at certain extent
-no pressed line on both sides
Very soon someone might scan the images and post them on internet. Let wait and see...
Wonder Perodua engineers will do what kind of modification to the front mask and meter panel?? Normally the rear will not be changed except changing the position of number plate(bumper or rear door).
This is one of the photo available from one of the magazine mentioned just now.
Will Perodua MPV 2009 base on this model???
