I work for a Toyota dealership and this is my absolute favorite Toyota. The only one I would purchase but can't afford it. Great video!

[@tommytunes303]

I think they knocked it out of the park with that Interior. You can compare it to much higher priced vehicles, and in many cases it's nicer looking.

[@Skyoneder]

I like it's size, not too big, not too small and has the luxury feel of a lexus but at a cheaper price.

[@neometero]

Current design is perfect, ordered mine two months already, still waiting. Toyota should employ this design language to more of their models, not everyone needs rugged looking cars.

[@bho6486]

I like the added fog lights. It adds a bit of classy look. We bought our Venza Limited last August and love it. We have had a couple electronic issues, mainly with the seat setting buttons (driver one and two buttons). Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. We also have the seat and steering wheel to move when starting and exiting the car. It seems to work when exiting but not when starting the car. We also are not in love with the JBL sound system. Most of the sound comes from the front speakers and you don't get a surround sound, even when shifting the sound more to the back speakers. BUT the car drives nicely, is quiet, and we are averaging 6.7 L/100km. It would be lower but most of our trips are short in the city. On longer highway trips, we have had it in the low 5's. We also looked at the Lexus NX hybrid and we're glad we went with the Venza.

[@MrKillerRC]

I’ve had my 2022 Limited for a month now. I love it. I like that they removed the badges and added fog lamps.

[@loiswendt9359]

How did you get one? Have one ordered for over 8 months and nothing yet. Dealers says they haven' made any for 5 months

[@garybaldwin1061]

Thanks for posting! From Prescott AZ.

[@analuisabances604]

Thank you for your video. I am switching my beloved 2013 RAV4 gas engine for a 2023 Venza Hybrid Limited. Long wait for the RAV4 Prime.

[@susanmeredith4957]

Love the heads up display. Wish the Rav4 Limited got it for 2022. Sun roof is kinda cool but wish it opened. Here in BC I use it a lot.

[@brianhua1978]

Just ordered mine last week and put a deposit for the Blueprint Limited with Grey interior, I was told by my sales person at Bolton Toyota it will take between 4-5 months. Can't Wait.

[@AnS-gk4yo]

We like the look of 2022 very much∼We ordered a limited one at the end of last year. We got the car a few days ago. It's very good！

[@mlps93]

Could you do a video with the exterior and interior signals and lights at night? Want to see the scuff plate illumination, fog lights, and ambient lighting better.

[@margiebrackett9036]

I have had my 2021 since January of 2021 and I still love it! I ordered one November 2020 in Pearl with the 2 tone seats which I love and I think they did away with for 2022. I also got the star gazer roof and I love it, I do wish part of it would open, something I miss from my Sequoia. Right now with gas prices going up I'm spend more at the pump, but I get 400m or a little more on a tank of gas, depending on if I'm driving it or my husband. Lol

[@felixtheengine]

400 miles on 14. gallons is actually not great assuming you drive to almost empty,

[@papichulo3430]

I have the 22 venza xle and I love it! Beautiful looks. Very quiet and smooth ride. I average 40 mpg. Oh and it's a head turner..everyone seems to try and figure out what kind of car it is.

[@cafelate9515]

I just bought the 2021 Venza limited the one you posted here. I felt ripped not having the fog lights on my limited Venza that the 2022 has. Have you seen the China's version of the venza. It has the nice grill. It looks hot. Do you prefer it to be called the Venza or the Harrier?

[@dgcin451]

What is the estimated wait time for an le?

[@NSV610]

Quite a few Venza 2021 had issues with the windshield cracking. Is this problem resolved for 2022?

[@sawdust311]

That's a gorgeous car. I'm going to buy a Limited Venza for my bride. White with Blizzard Pearl White exterior and a Java / Black interior. It's actually a nicer looking car than the Lexus equivalent.

[@PurpleMeowKitty]

i have the 21 venza--should i be able to get the foglights added in usa???

[@baldheadlogic]

Nice vehicle for sure. I wish Toyota offered a regular opening moonroof.

[@wwbehrouz]

What is the delivery ETA on Venza at this time?

[@rbielarski]

I like these vehicles a lot but come on Toyota, you can offer fog lights on the XLE as an option at least. You can get them on the Rav4 XLE premium package as well as an opening moonroof. Not a fan of the electronic touch screen HVAC controls so would go with the XLE to get normal knobs. (USA gets that on LE & XLE)

[@rickowens6959]

If you order now, and with 5 month delivery, would you receive a 2023? are there any revisions planned for 2023 model versus 2022?

[@UncleYohta]

Do you know if MY21 Venzas are pre-wired for foglights?

[@katiefoster68]

I live in Oregon and I have a 2022 Venza limited with the 12.3 screen. I have had it for less than a week and really like it, getting used to less room than my 19 Highlander but its worth it. However I feel like there is an elephant in the room...I have looked in owners manuals and forums. Why cant I make my map full screen???? The section that wont go away has good info but I don't need it there all the time. It essentially gives me an 8" screen. Does not feel like an upgrade. Could you tell me how to fix? Thanks Marcello. I really appreciate your videos

[@azerlucas84]

Hi do you have any right hand drive in stock?

[@walaarostom]

Thank you so much for the awesome review. Does the 2022 Limited get RSA “Road Sign Assistance” where the vehicle displays the road signs on the dash board? Also are the fog lights LED? Thank you

[@isaacwalker6646]

My venza limited in blizzard pearl exterior is set from Japan, finally. Ordered it last September. The dealer told me a blizzard Pearl limited was the most difficult one to get

[@NSV610]

congrats-i would think titanium limited would also be as difficult

[@user-kx8fw8si3q]

Is that true that Limited WITH sunroof is more noise then without sunroof? Thank you!

[@randyrozelle3620]

I noticed this Venza has mudflaps. I have not been able to find these for our Limited Venza and our dealer has indicated they are not available. Can you please provide this information?

[@wuzupbuttercup]

I sat in a Venza Limited at Pickering Toyota today. Love it and am seriously considering putting a deposit down very soon. Sales person said about 5 months eta. (6 for rav 4) Is that time frame accurate as to what you see now in April 22? I mapped out Maple Toyota, it’s about 45 min drive for me from Whitby.

[@ToyotaWorld]

Hey there. Yes about 5 months is somewhat accurate for Venza. But for RAV4 hybrid it is no where near 6 months. It’s almost 12 for RAV4 hybrid

[@MattCC16Gaming]

Is the pedestrian warning reverse noise updated/different than the 2021? I know Toyota changed it for the 22 RAV4 hybrid. Just curious cause in some 22 Venza videos it sounded different.

[@tangotea7192]

2023 it's quieter. Low noise.

[@OldDood]

I had one for a Loaner while my RAV4 was getting the protection packages applied. I really like the Venza. Especially the Memory Seats/Tilt/Mirrors all working together. Power fold in mirrors is a real nice touch. Very Lexus Like. The ONLY thing I do not like about the Venza is the lack of Radio and HVAC Knobs like in the RAV4. It is annoying to hunt for the Touch Buttons then have to 'Click-Click-Click' them. It was the deal breaker for me when I was ordering a new vehicle. It is the reason I went with the RAV4 Limited Hybrid instead.

[@imgee7620]

Do you like it more than the Lexus?

[@OldDood]

@@imgee7620 I wouldn't say I like it more then a Lexus. It is very Lexus Like though in ride, comfort, and tech. However like I posted originally I would have ordered the Venza Limited IF they put in actual Dials/Knobs on the dash for the Radio and HVAC systems. I do not like all the 'Touch-Buttons'. You cannot reach over and 'Feel' for them like you can on the RAV4. I can adjust my RAV4's Radio and HVAC with out looking for the controls.

[@2bornot2b888]

Hi Marcello, wondering if buying this 2022 Venza. Is there Ontario Tax credit for purchasing a hybrid car available to Canadian and if so how do we as consumer go about to apply for it. RSVP, thanks and as always, love your videos.

[@ToyotaWorld]

Hey there! No tax credit for the Venza. Currently government offers rebates for plug in units only

[@2bornot2b888]

@@ToyotaWorld Thank you Marcello.

[@cafelate9515]

I love my 2021 Venza Limited. The only zonk is the missing fog lights. It is not expensive why they don't put it there. That is the only thing missing on my Venza. For what I am paying for the top model should have the fog lights by default. Seems like I want all the features that I have to get the top model. The second zonk is I don't have the star gaze moon roof on my Limited Venza. It does feel and look luxury. I love this over the RAV 4 XLE Hybrid that I gladly get rid of.

[@K1llerBBW]

Love this Trim. My only thing is if I'm gonna pay close to 50k I'd just look at a Lexus, Mercedes or Telluride.

[@moeanthony9308]

Thanks Marcello. I wonder how this drives vs lexus NX besides lower cost.

[@ToyotaWorld]

This drives better than nx gas model. If you compare against nx hybrid then similar

[@moeanthony9308]

@@ToyotaWorld Good to know. Thanks

[@SO-zm9bk]

Hey man! Shall I go with the RAV4 XSE TECH PACK HYBRID or VENZA HYBRID XLE? Thanks!

[@ToyotaWorld]

Depends on needs. I would do Venza

[@SO-zm9bk]

@@ToyotaWorld Thx thx! Gotta cancel my order now 😭

[@maloohtrue1360]

We placed our order june 30,2022 and we got our Venza Limited on july 14, 2022. We were ecstatic when we got a call that it’s coming in tonight. DICK HANNAH TOYOTA DELEARSHIP IN KELSO, WA. THANKS, Andy Bonnington. You are the best!

[@jollyp1605]

I was leaning toward this vesna marchello but after finding out that the wait time was something like 20 months I decided to go for The rav4 le which supposedly is 6 months and also a 20000$ difference. Personally I like simplicity and dependability. What are your thoughts from an old Italian stallion. Lol

[@ToyotaWorld]

Venza is a different caliber of vehicle than Rav4 in my opinion. But a rav4 you can never go wrong with. Doesn’t matter what model. 20K gap is something to consider definitely.

[@jollyp1605]

@@ToyotaWorld I would like to ask you Marchello if it is mandatory to get a extended warranty when buying a preordered rav4 these days. This dealer here in the gta pushed me to get the 1500$ plan after I refused the 2000$ one. Is this legal and what can I do after I signed the contract last week. I would of rather spent that money on the aluminum rims ..appreciate your feedback. The old Italian stallion.

[@ToyotaWorld]

@@jollyp1605 nothing is really mandatory. Something doesn’t sound right there

[@T9TranGM]

Please, please, please, also kindly tell us what the equivalent US Dollar/Miles/Gallon when giving information. Thank you for your understanding. I always click LIKE Before watching your great informative Toyota videos 👍 You have very, very useful information for the Toyota owners and consumers in the USA. A few minutes of Conversion HomeWork Before Shooting the video will definitely prove extremely useful to current and future Toyota customers/believerS/KZbin viewers. Oh by the way, we bought a White 2021 Venza LE in February 2021 - And we love it and definitely believe it is a Luxurious RAV4 (Or is it a 2021 Lexus NX300h for $8,000 U$D Less? The Toyota 2021 Hybrid Venza Is The Most REFINED 2021 Model of ALL of Toyota's models and TRIMS. YES! ) Thank you very much again🙏.

[@ToyotaWorld]

Cool. Will try to remember that

[@sparemethedramatics1629]

Too bad they don’t put little cubby holes/shelf’s in the front area to put misc things like the highlander and rav4 has….I would love to see the front get piano black instead of that plastic grill. I think I saw a picture of the harrier with the piano black bumper in Japan models

[@richardg4764]

What happened to the insane maintenance costs??

[@juanplus3324]

This car looks a lot better that the polarizing Lexus RX without paying premium.

[@witsendcottage595]

Not a fan of the panoramic roof..too gimmicky. Put a panoramic sunroof in the Venza'

[@ritacampbell9683]

Yes! Fog lights

Too much hoopla on secondary details: looks, grille, headlights, buttons, ambiance lights, starry roofs etc... Tell us about: ENGINE POWER RIDE NOISE IN CABIN CONSUMPTION BEHAVIOUR IN RAIN/SNOW/COLD OPERATION COST WARRANTIES BRAKING PERFORMANCE STABILITY good grief. You are taking buyers for children!

[@ToyotaWorld]

A lot of details you are requesting are driver specific and dependant on user of vehicle.

[@pilou5783]

@@ToyotaWorld Rather hazy nuance. Driver vs user? Remains that there should be a priority in the list of features and/or improvements. Many will doubt that the position of fog lights for instance is of prime importance... Thanks for your reply. Very professional.

I love the design of this vehicle. Apparently, it's very quiet on the road, too.
