Toyota has long been known for its durable, high-value cars. But with the new release of the 2021 Toyota Venza, this automaker is soon to be synonymous with luxury as well. The Venza nameplate was at one time applied to a wagon/crossover. Today, it’s attached to a luxury hybrid about to blaze a new trail in the crossover market.
1. Lexus-Like Luxury
With its sculpted body lines, chrome trim, and coupe-like roof, the revived Venza could easily pass for a Lexus. It shares its platform with the RAV4, a long-running favorite in the SUV market, but feels more upscale from every angle. The vehicle’s rear is elegantly sculpted, with thin LED taillights that span the width of the hatch. Inside, all surfaces are wrapped in real or synthetic leather with contrast stitching for an upscale look.
Three different trims – the LE, XLE, and Limited – offer different features that further elevate the driving experience. For example, the Limited offers heated and ventilated seats with a star-gazing panoramic roof. Even the base LE comes with a standard hands-free power liftgate, an accessory available only on higher trims in other vehicles.
2. A Whole Lot of Tech
The Venza’s interior console is designed for drama, and your eye is likely to first be drawn to the 8-inch touchscreen that provides easy access to maps, music, and apps. A 12.3-inch screen is available on the XLE and standard on the Limited.
A clean, well-lit 7-inch multi-information display is also available so you can see key driving data without taking your eyes off the road. Another option is a digital rearview mirror that provides a wider and clearer view of what’s behind the vehicle. And ambient lighting creates a refined feel on nighttime drives.
3. Green Power
Excellent fuel economy and earth-friendly habits tend to make an SUV feel sluggish, but the Venza has plenty of power. The engine remains in the background most of the time so that even on acceleration, the cabin remains serenely
quiet. And the brake pedal has a nice, tight feel that rises above most hybrid competitors.
