A lot of cars look big on the outside but are not spacious inside. The Toyota Venza is deceiving in that it looks a normal size on the outside but very roomy on the inside better than the Cadillac SRX also the ride was comparable and acceleration was better in the venza also better gas mileage. How great I get 26-27 and average 22-24 combined rural and hilly highway. It is Limited AWD with all the bells and whistles I especially like the auto high beam and the cabin comfort it handles great and stops on a dime. I love my toyotas, no recalls on this model to date 2013. The suspension is also much better in 2013 the made the rear independent for a much smoother ride so anyone pre-2013 sorry urs rides a lot tougher . I tested both 2012 & 2013 and it was a huge difference on bumps and holes in the road. Overall I would recommend for extra storage and a true midsize vehicle . Larger SUVs are overkill and consume much more gas. So if u don't need that much this wagon looking crossover suv is great . Toyotas are notorious for great handling in snow. So I'm not worried but haven't experienced yet. In a downpour it had no problems at all, no hydro planing at 65, braking was fantastic also. Highly recommend this vehicle

STILL LOVE MY VEHICLE

I purchased my 2013 in 2012. After looking, comparing, reseaching. I first noticed the sleek look of the Venza. After i did a test drive, i was hooked. I can't find but one thing wrong with the Venza. When the music is up the interior is rattling like someone is shaking the vehicle. Other then that, i love the smooth ride and comfortability the Venza has. I have not drove it in the snow only because how bad other drivers are. I drive my other really nice vehicle, Nissan Altima. I'm still in aw on how pretty my Venza look. I'm too sorry Toyota stop production on this vehicle. I did not see any other vehicle that Toyota has that either i can afford or want. This would had been the first vehicle that i would have replaced with the same type. When i do replace my Venza will look elsewhere. I have low milage on my Venza. I hope to have for a while. I have awd, i don't feel like my Venza s using a lot of gas.

One of the best cars I've ever owned. Have been very pleased with the performance, styling, handling, comfort. Too bad they stopped making it..... Toyota needs to rethink that decision. If buy it again in a heartbeat.

Sweet ride, but there are flaws

This is owning a Venza in a nutshell: It is a sweet looking ride that needs a little TLC to make great. The tires make a huge difference: Get Michelin Latitudes or something similar. Noise is a big issue in this car. The JBL Synthesis system plays plenty loud, and has some nice highs. Bass is nothing more than a muddied mess. There is no sub, so the front door woofers are asked to play sub bass instead of midbass and fail. Get a small underseat subwoofer and tie it into the system. HUGE improvement! As for the interior, it needs a LOT of sound deadening. This thing is a rattle trap. Get yourself some CCF and MLV and some CLD to put on the rattling metal. Otherwise, great engine and handles really well. Did I say how sweet it looks? And I am assuming Toyota's reputation for reliability would apply here too. It requires some work to it, but it turns this into a great car.

My wife and I leased a 2010 Rav4 Limited V6 and our lease was up. We decided to get a new 2013 Rav4 however was disappointed to see it no longer had the V6 as an option. As we walked through the dealer lot a 2013 Attitude black limited AWD V6 Venza caught our eye. It was stylish and had a great set of 5 spoke 20" wheels. We took it for a test drive and the ride was fun however very very quiet compared to the 2010 V6 Rav4. We loved the new Entune Nav system and the current LED daytime running light as well as the HID main headlights were nice. We liked the panoramic roof and the power lift gate. The seats were comfortable and very adjustable. The dual chrome exhaust were a nice sporty touch.
