About the Toyota Venza

The Toyota Venza is a stylish alternative to the boxy grocery-getters that make up most of the midsize SUV segment. Equipped with an efficient hybrid powertrain, sophisticated design, and cutting-edge technology. Thanks to the Toyota Hybrid System II powertrain and advanced Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive, the Venza offers a superlative blend of smooth power delivery and proven capability in all weather conditions. Giving you the best of both worlds, you’ll experience the versatility of a CUV combined with the driving comfort of a sedan. Standard Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+ ensures that you and your loved ones will always stay protected from the unexpected behind the wheel of the Venza. Luxurious interior amenities such as heated and ventilated perforated SofTex®-trimmed seats help melt away the tension and stress of your daily commute. A total of three distinct trim levels makes it simple to find the Toyota Venza that’s perfectly suited for your lifestyle and personal tastes.


What the Critics Say

“Yes, the Venza is a hybrid, but no, you don’t need to be a “hybrid person” to buy one. With a 2.5-liter I-4 engine and a lithium-ion battery pack, the Venza’s combined system output is 219 hp. That sounds insufficient for a 3,900-pound SUV, but driving the Venza reveals its unique hybrid advantages. Namely, instant-on electric motor torque.” — Motor Trend
Plus, it’s smooth, quiet and gets you a Toyota-estimated 39 mpg in combined city/highway driving. Overall, we think highly of the Venza and recommend it if you’re looking for an SUV that’s stylish, upscale and fuel-efficient.” — Edmunds

Toyota Venza Features

Toyota Venza Styling

Sophisticated Styling & Performance

Every Toyota Venza comes standard with the Toyota Hybrid System II powertrain and advanced Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive. Not only does this tandem work together to provide you with smooth acceleration, predictable handling, and refinement at all speeds — it’s also remarkably efficient with up to a 39 MPG combined fuel economy rating**. All Venza models are assembled at the Takaoka Plant in Japan and are underpinned by the award-winning Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) K platform. Selectable NORMAL, ECO, EV, and SPORT drive modes allow the driver to customize the performance personality of the Venza. Standard LED headlamps and taillights provide the perfect combination of eye-catching style and superior visibility in low-light conditions. Predictive Efficient Drive (PED) relies on navigation system operation to analyze driving habits and memorize road/traffic conditions in an effort to optimize hybrid battery charging.

Toyota Venza Interior

Luxurious Interior

All Toyota Venza trim levels come standard with a variety of impressive luxury features that help separate it from the competition. On Venza Limited grades, perforated SofTex®-trimmed seats with heated and ventilated power front seats feature S-FLOW cooling technology that first appeared on Lexus vehicles. Strategically placed insulation and an acoustic glass windshield help to eliminate wind noise and deliver a truly serene ride. An available Star Gaze fixed panoramic glass roof allows drivers to switch from transparent to frosted modes within one second using the ON/OFF button. Balancing form with function, there are door cupholders that can accommodate 24-oz bottles and a center console tray that’s large enough to place the largest iPhone models. Clever positioning of the lithium-ion battery beneath the rear seats of the Venza provides up to 28.8 cubic feet of cargo capacity behind the second row.

Toyota Venza Advanced Technology Package

Cutting-Edge Technology

You’ll find innovative technologies to help transform your daily drive inside the Toyota Venza. An optional 10-inch color Head-Up Display projects essential information at eye level, including speedometer, hybrid system performance data, and TSS 2.5 functions. All trims come standard with a backup camera including projected path and dynamic gridlines. XLE and Limited grades come standard with a Smart Key System that works on all five doors, great for accessing the interior when your hands are full. Available Premium Audio with Dynamic Navigation and JBL includes a massive 12.3-inch touchscreen display with controls that can be switched between the driver or front passenger operation. Helping you stay one step ahead of danger on the road is standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+ (TSS 2.5+), a comprehensive suite of active safety systems. Some examples of technologies included are Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA), Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), and Automatic High Beams (AHB).
