JBL Synthesis®, JBL’s brand designation for surround sound, first entered the Toyota lineup in a 5.1 format on the Sienna and 4Runner (2003 model year), and now 7.1 format on the Avalon (2005 model year). |

JBL has also provided an unbranded premium rear-seat entertainment system on the Land Cruiser since the 2004 model year. |
