Base trim for the intelligent win and a long term trouble free car

Limited. I got the 2023 one. To get to the same level of features and options you have to spend 62k for nx350h or 72k for rdx 350h.

[@Codyonamission]

Yep! The budget version just as nice!

[@WShawn]

We're going to check out an LE in the next few days. Physical knobs and buttons are a must-have for us.

[@stephenpowstinger733]

You get used to the volume toggle buttons.

XLE night shade 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@jeanclaude8120]

I'd go for thre night shade...great review...kudos to u

[@dogie8c]

I would say if you want to experience the full luxury of the Venza but without going overboard in price; the XLE with the JBL sound system is the way to go. The limited is too expensive and the LE has hard fabric seats (I would at least upgrade to some katzkin leather seats if you go for the LE.)

[@JCRightJustified]

I love my Limited. It has every option that I want & love. I plan to own for a long time.

[@stephenpowstinger733]

24 XLE Nightshade here. Luxury on the cheap. I kinda miss the ventilated seats (in Fla) and all but not the extra cost. The all-black interior is not as handsome as two-tone trims but, oh well, you can’t cherry-pick low-volume cars. Gas economy is excellent coming from a 23 Subaru that got 15 mpg.

How is the car AC

[@vincentslusser9205]

Purchased a 24 in December of 23. XLE Trim / Coastal grey on grey. Love this car !! What do you all have?

[@immanuelingari4336]

I'm at a crossroad between putting a down payment for the xle and the Nightshade which I've found 2 for the same price.My sister has the Harrier version of this back home

[@dogie8c]

@@immanuelingari4336 If you love music go for the XLE with the JBL sound system. If you don’t care about the sound system then go for the nightshade edition for the Panoramic Roof or without. It’s a great car for the money.

[@pete84101]

I know where all those outdoor driving locations are 🙂

[@sitifatimahharon3824]

Is it toyota harier

[@lthdean]

I drove one last week and felt it was underpowered. Is there any chance they would put a 6 cyl in this car ? Option in the LXE maybe for 2024 ??

[@dannybryant6873]

RAV4 prime has over 300 hp. But is hard to find.

[@josepharmato8032]

Not a chance

[@stephenpowstinger733]

I find the power totally adequate.

[@jsundberg5542]

does anyone here have it with a head up display????

[@josepharmato8032]

You didn’t mention the five thousand dollars of dealer installed accessories that you will be harassed into paying for.

[@stephenpowstinger733]

Not true but i did get $1,700 in accessories.

[@smokey2459]

The Venza has been discontinued beginning with the 2025 model year. Toyota is hoping that potential Venza customers will migrate to the new Crown models.

[@billyrock8305]

Neither. Disco’d old stock.

[@naveenthemachine]

In general neither

[@Realist839]

care to elaborate?

[@naveenthemachine]

@@Realist839 no trim level of the venza is worthwhile The venza exterior design choices is very questionable. Especially the bottom bumper turn signals. The interior is cramped nd claustrophobic. The old venza had a lot more space inside but the new venza is as big as a rav4 even though it’s categorized as a midsize crossover The back seats are tight. Trunks small. And the touch sensitive controls on the venza are not good. And it’s also overpriced

[@Realist839]

@@naveenthemachine - Thanks for the response. I was almost sure about buying one. Now, I will take a closer look when I go for a test drive.

[@rda032283]

@@Realist839 doesn't have pre-collision system, unlike rav4

[@petermacdonald6332]

My limited is perfect! The price is fine for the quality of vehicle. 🤷🏻‍♂️Everyone has a different opinion/expectation.
