*2001 Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price as of 10/01/00, including the Delivery, Processing and Handling Fee. (Historically, vehicle manufacturers and distributors have charged a separate fee for processing, handling and delivering vehicles to dealerships. Toyota's charge for these services is called the "Delivery, Processing and Handling Fee" and is based on the value of the processing, handling and delivery services Toyota provides as well as Toyota's overall pricing structure. Toyota may make a profit on the Delivery, Processing and Handling Fee.) Excludes taxes, license, title and available or regionally required equipment. The Delivery, Processing and Handling Fee in AL, FL, GA, NC, SC, AR, LA, MS, OK and TX is $15 higher for Trucks, Sienna and SUVs, and $30 higher for all other Toyota vehicles. Actual dealer price may vary. Pricing, specifications, standard features and available equipment are based on information available when this page was produced and are subject to change without notice.

**Availability is limited.

1) See Safety Section for a complete list of safety features.
2) The Toyota driver and front passenger air bags are Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS). The driver and front passenger air bags are designed to inflate in a severe frontal collision. In all other accidents, the air bags will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from a deploying air bag, always wear seatbelts and sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible from the air bag modules. Do not put objects in front of an air bag. Do not use rearward-facing child seats in any front passenger seat without switching off the passenger-side air bag. The force of a deploying air bag SRS may cause serious injury or death. Please see your Owner's Manual for further instructions.
3) Preliminary EPA mileage estimates determined by Toyota. Final EPA mileage estimates not available at time of posting. See your Toyota dealer for details.

For details on vehicle specifications, standard features and available equipment in your area, contact your Toyota dealer. A vehicle with particular equipment may not be available at the dealership. Ask your Toyota dealer to help locate a specifically equipped vehicle. Specifications, standard features and available equipment are based upon information available when this page was produced, are subject to change without notice, are for mainland U.S.A. vehicles only and may differ in the state of Hawaii and in other regions.
