Toyota Venza

The Toyota Venza is a five-passenger vehicle that couples the styling and comfort of a passenger car with the flexibility of a sport utility vehicle (SUV), to give customers a stylish alternative to the traditional sedan.

The Venza offers the choice of two powerplants, a 182-hp 2.7-liter four-cylinder or 268-hp 3.5-liter V6. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with sequential shift control and both can be had in either front or all-wheel drive. Standard features include dual-zone automatic climate control, satellite radio, power windows, locks and mirrors, 19-inch wheels on four-cylinder models, 20-inch wheels on V6 models, privacy glass, cruise control, electronic stability control, seven airbags, including a driver's knee airbag, front seatbelt pretensioners and front active head restraints.

For 2012, the Venza has new trim levels, LE, XLE and Limited, and unique standard equipment on each.
