Purchased one roughly a year ago, and it is by far one of the nicest vehicles I've personally had the pleasure of calling my own. If you're considering this or a RAV4, go for it. Just be aware the Venza has 0 towing capabilities so if you want to enjoy the outdoors and haul some things behind you, then the RAV4 is where you'll be happy. If your more like me and your car is a pavement queen, then the Venza should make you very happy.

[@orlandovelastegui1391]

The reason I got the Venza over the RAV4 was because I wanted a Lexus and the Venza is the closest thing to a Lexus RX !!!

[@HettBret]

@@orlandovelastegui1391 I actually have upgraded my Venza that I previously typed about from the base model to an XLE. Still in love and congratulations on your purchase!

[@rxonmymind8362]

​@orlandovelastegui1391 I owned a Lexus RX 350 and there's no difference in ride or quality of materials inside. Layout isn't exactly Lexus caliber but good otherwise.

Bought a limited with rood and HUD. First CUV, first Toyota, first hybrid. Great vehicle!! Comfortable, quiet, great tech, nice audio, and 41-43 MPG. Glad I got it!

[@andybub45]

I think this car fixes many of the gripes people have with the Rav4, in terms of the interior. I think Toyota is aiming for the RAV4 being the more rugged crossover and the Venza being the more luxurious option. I’ve been inside a new Venza and I can say from experience, the interior materials are way nicer than the materials used inside the RAV4. Also it’s much quieter and the suspension is softer.

[@powerguymark]

Great video guys. One caveat: It is a disservice for Toyota to even refer to its transmission as an eCVT, especially since a standard CVT typically has a belt that is basically designed to wear out. Toyota has been perfecting its hybrid drivetrain system for 25 years now and the gearbox is just that. Full of gears which are solid and well built. I do agree with most drivers on the panoramic sunroof. It's kind of gimmicky and not opening kind of sucks. Also if you want to haul something on the roof you can't get roof rails if you have the panoramic sunroof. This car is way quieter than a RAV4. The sound system sounds better even if both have the JBL. The seats are much more comfortable also, and the ride is smoother. It's truly an adult car. Much less utilitarian than a RAV4, but if I need utilitarian I'll jump into either a hybrid Highlander or even a hybrid Sienna. Tonight during a late night cruise of about 12 miles with minimal traffic I averaged 63.9 mpg! When I first bought the car last January we received about a 9-in snow locally. Couldn't resist testing the all-wheel drive. It had no trouble at all so I took it to a parking lot and tried to make it get squirrely testing how fast the computer would send power to the electric motor driving the rear wheels and I simply could not get it to misbehave and that was with stock all season tires on it. If one lived in northern climes and put snow tires on it in the winter it would have no trouble at all. I also love all the standard safety features except for the lane departure system which became really annoying so I hardly ever use it. I went ahead and put a full-blown hitch on it instead of their accessory hitch that's only supposed to be used for bike racks. Toyota doesn't say it, but it's basically got the same towing capacity of a RAV4 since it's the same chassis. Great fuel economy, near legendary Toyota reliability, basically an entry level Lexus. My kids are grown otherwise I would have looked at a sienna or Highlander hybrid. In my opinion this is a big step up from a RAV4. You do lose a little bit of functionality for the comfort level but for me it was an easy choice. It's basically an entry-level Lexus for about $17 Grand less than a Lexus. A RAV4 isn't anywhere close to a Lexus.

[@JBM425]

Toyota officially does not rate the Venza for towing, or at least did not initially. You might void the warranty if you install a hitch on your own.

[@powerguymark]

@@JBM425 or you might not.

Is it true that the Venza kick sensor needs to be removed if an aftermarket Draw-Tite or Kurt hitch is installed?

Yes, I agree. I test drove RAV4 hybrid 2021 and Venza 2021 and Venza is much nicer! Going to order Venza limited 2022 in January. Coming from Avalon limited 2007!

As a first time mom- I bought a 2021 xle rav4, not much features but it serves great to fit stroller boxes of diapers& wipes 👍🏼. I just wish it looked as luxurious as this, keep in mind I got it last may, our dealerships didn’t have much options since they didn’t have cars. Today I went in for an oil change and they tried to get me into a venza.. i loved absolutely everything about it, I was thinking of the cargo area which seems smaller… such a hard decision but we are trying to get a new house so we’re ok with our rav4!!!

You guys missed talking about one of the best features for the new Venza. The 2300 watt JBL sound system in our Limited is by far the best sounding OEM system that we've owned. I think it sounds better balanced than the Mark Levinson that I had in my Lexus IS.

[@rxonmymind8362]

Blasphemy! M&L is still better 😂.

[@simonsung3737]

Beautiful car. Averaging 44 mpg. Quiet and comfortable ride. On short city trips I am getting 50+ mpg. Smart climate controls. Touch controls not the best, but I use the steering wheel controls. In eco mode, the engine switches btw electric and gas even at higher speeds to maximize efficiency. Battery has a 150,000 mile warranty and free maintenance for two years. Traded up from a platinum Nissan Murano.

[@powerguymark]

I really like mine too. Also due to regenerative braking if one were to keep their car long enough to need a new battery not having to pay for brakes basically covers the cost of the battery replacement. This is SO much more of an adult ride over a RAV4. Although I've pulled off some pretty amazing MPG numbers I'm only averaging around Toyotas quoted number of 39 mpg. Even if one were to drive in sport mode continuously and drive it like a drunken teenager you will still get 37. 😂

Great Review. My biggest gripes with the Venza are: a smallish cargo area, rear turn signals at bumper level, and the lack of a "opening moonroof" to let in fresh air.

[@macdds]

The cargo area could be larger than now but as long as the second row is foldable, it has not been a big issue for me at all. Also rear turn siganls at bumper level is not quite an issue either because of the fact that the side mirrors have turn signals. By the way, I kind a miss an openining moonroof as you mentioned.

As an update to my previous review, I still love mine but some things to add. Wind noise can be annoying and mine has started to get some type of rattle or knocking at high speed and not sure what from. The wireless phone charging port area doesn't work well/at all. My fuel tank door recently stopped opening (heard it's a common issue). I have almost 60k miles on it now. I also wish the radio had a "scan" button to search for stations while driving. All it has is "seek" where you literally have to press it forward to go to every single next station and who wants to do that. Other than that it drives nice, has awesome fuel economy, feels nice inside compared to rav4 which to me feels more basic/plastic/sporty.

The fake driving lights were pointed out and these and other cost cutting measures are found throughout… everything is just cheap cheap but looks fantastic. Looks don’t translate into owner pride…another example I remember .. those seat heater buttons..worse than a child’s toy, cheesy carpet..on and on. Well anyway, super quality car but I’ve conveyed my own experience. ( last note..I had the opaque moonroof…it defaults to off and you have to push the button every time you start the car..super annoying and after 2 days I kept the shade closed and never saw it again. Oh one more, lol. The monitor rear view mirror cannot “see” a half opened garage door from three feet away because the camera is mounted off-site. Another thing never used and risky. Camera mirror also does not work with eyeglass wearers (progressives). Bottom line….super quality and will last forever ; it’s nice Toyota offers this for those not wanting to spend Lexus money.

I've had my Venza limited for a couple of months now and while I love it, the lack of storage is maddening!! there is no room. I had twice as much room to pack suitcases and such in my Nissan Altima!

What kind of gas mileage are you getting on the freeway? We pick ours up in two days. Have heard nothing but great feedback on it this far

@@DMAX-ed7pq I’ve had my Venza Limited since end of May. Just completed a 2600 mile round trip to the east coast. The highway mileage is as noted by Toyota. I averaged 38.7 mpg for the trip. The problem is the range. I could only get a max of 415 miles out of a tank @ 10.7 gallons at empty. Toyota claims the tank is 14.5 gallons but I’ve yet to put in more than 11.3 gallons. The cars been back to the dealer twice for this and each time, they claim everything checks out? I’ve opened up a case with Toyota corporate AND I’m not the only Venza owner with this issue. Be aware of this because it’s a problem that Toyota had with the RAV4 hybrid 2019-2021 and Toyota replaced the gas tank on some Venzas. I’m sure if enough owners complain, eventually it will be recalled. Hope this helps.

@@ivandoneshefsky4762 mine doesn't fill to 14 either

[@curlygurlxo]

I love mine but the negatives are the horizontal strip tail lights aren't very attractive, the low blinkers, the hybrid whistle at low speeds make dogs turn and stare lol and kind of slow acceleration. The car looks 10/10 from the side profile but to me almost a 4/10 from the front and back..super narrow looking

[@susdeysun5944]

Super cute car. I like it.

[@JBM425]

Major fail: the Venza is not rated for towing, while the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid which shares the same platform can tow close to 2,000 pounds. That defeats the purpose of a crossover/SUV. It’s supposed to be the 21st century station wagon.

[@HevaNaisdey]

Good looking car, but the start button position is not ideal for me. Very strange placement 🤔

[@youbian]

I don’t understand the purpose of this car given Toyota has like four SUVs in the exact same class.

[@sarojshrestha6464]

Would you mind comparing this to the Hyundai Tucson ??

[@guillecanales11]

The Tucson compares more to the Rav4. The Venza is shorter and interior space is smaller.

[@wardellward]

Y did Toyota stop making the Venza

[@marvinkaskawits973]

They stopped for the same reason they discontinued the Prius 5. Just plain stupid. If they made the Prius 5 SUV I would buy another today. Wonderful car and hard to find on the used car market.

[@oldedwardian1778]

Here we go AGAIN, Toyota has gone for a more CLEAN AND SOPHISTICATED look. WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN.

[@hexflores9648]

Smaller than previous Venza didn’t care for it…so disappointed…

[@lloydlange2950]

told my wife this was the suv to buy. she is still mith me

[@kidbrogaming6534]

Better than RAV4 😌

[@uwinnaing8723]

Good Beautiful quality 🙂🙂🙂

Remote start monthly fee?

After the trial ends, yes

[@micah6811]

The wheels are hideous-looking, hard to clean, too many spoke on wheels! They just used the same style on the wheels from the Highlander Platinum! The wheels matter and they compliment the overall aesthetic look of the vehicle in my opinion.
