Toyota Venza for sale

There is a laundry list of SUV crossovers available on the market, specifically in North America. Even Toyota has its fair share of this practical family vehicle and the Toyota Venza may be the right vehicle for you. Slightly more extensive than the iconic Toyota RAV 4 and not as cumbersome as the Toyota Highlander, the Toyota Venza is just the right Goldilocks fit. The Toyota Venza has been available abroad under the name Toyota Harrier for quite some time and has finally made it to the North American market. It has the potential to become very popular.

Generations of the Toyota Venza

While the second-generation Toyota Venza is new in North America for 2020, many may remember the nameplate utilized earlier in the millennium. The first-generation Toyota Venza was based on the Toyota Camry chassis and was introduced as a concept vehicle in 2008. Unfortunately, production of the car halted in 2015 due to heavy competition and deteriorating sales. In the effort to bring the popular Toyota Harrier to a North American market, the Toyota Venza badge was recycled and reused. The new vehicle is only available with a four-wheel drive hybrid powertrain.

The new and improved Toyota Venza

The newest-generation Toyota Venza is a dynamic hybrid SUV. Powered by a 2.5-litre petrol engine and three electric motors, this vehicle has some versatility. The all-wheel drive is powered separately. The rear wheels take one electric motor, and the remainder boosts the front. Additionally, the Toyota Venza offers impressive fuel economy, reportedly reaching as much as 17 kilometres per litre. The new model is fitted with high-end tech, including a top-level infotainment system, automated pedestrian detection braking and lane-keeping assistance.
