In the crowded field of crossover SUVs, the 2024 Toyota Venza offers shoppers an exciting option. It has a roomy, well-appointed cabin, an efficient and powerful hybrid engine, and plenty of standard tech features. Keep reading to find out more about what makes the Venza such a standout.
1. All-Hybrid Lineup
Toyota’s hybrids are known for their combination of powerful performance and fuel-sipping efficiency, and the Venza is no exception. Each of the Venza’s 4 trims is powered by a 2.5-liter Dynamic Force hybrid engine that produces a combined net 219 horsepower. Its electronically controlled CVT responds to driver input with the optimal gear ratio for each situation, giving the Venza an EPA-estimated 39 MPG combined.
The Venza isn’t just powerful and efficient. It also grips the road with standard Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive and Active Cornering Assist, so you can travel with confidence on both sunny and rainy days.
2. Comfortable and Spacious Cabin
Inside the Venza, a beautifully designed cabin awaits up to 5 passengers, with plenty of room in both rows of seats. A dust and pollen filter keeps the cabin air clean, and a dual-zone automatic climate control system lets the driver and front passenger choose separate temperature settings to optimize their comfort.
Behind the second-row seats, 28.8 cu. ft. of cargo space gives you all the room you need to carry groceries, sporting equipment, or luggage. The second-row seats also fold flat with a 60/40 split, so you can choose the amount of cargo space you need, up to 55.1 cu. ft. with both sides folded. The standard hands-free power liftgate lets you access the cargo area when your hands are full by waving your foot under the rear bumper.
3. Convenient Connections
It’s easy to keep all your devices charged and connected inside the Venza, thanks to 5 USB ports and a Qi-compatible wireless smartphone charger. When you want to display your phone’s driving directions on the 8-inch touchscreen or listen to your favorite playlists on the 6-speaker audio system, just connect your phone using wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
4. Advanced Driver Assistance Features
The Venza’s driver assistance features help you stay aware of your surroundings and even help you respond to potential dangers on the road. For example, while you’re operating the Venza in reverse, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert uses hidden sensors in the rear bumper to detect traffic approaching from either side behind you. This system issues a warning when it detects a vehicle, so you can apply the brakes and prevent a collision.
