Toyota Brings SpongeBob Sienna to LA Auto Show
Toyota will have a truly one-of-a-kind vehicle at this year’s LA Auto Show.
The Japanese automaker just revealed a custom 2015 Sienna minivan built as a promotional vehicle for The SpongeBob Movie that will premiere on February 6, 2015. The minivan is the result of a partnership between Nickelodeon and Toyota and features a custom three-dimensional SpongeBob Squarepants exterior, complete with the character’s Superhero Incredibubble mask that can blow real bubbles at the top of the car. On the inside, the Sienna’s seating has been inspired by SpongeBob’s Bikini Bottom pals as well as a wood-grain dashboard, a custom Captain’s steering wheel, a blue-sky head liner and a sand-inspired floor.
