Toyota fits a pair of power-adjustable front seats to every Venza, and covers those in base models in cloth. Toyota wraps the Venza body around an interior fitted with comfortable front seats and lots of cargo room, which nets a 7 here. There’s little excitement in the way it drives, but it is uniformly capable and pleasant. With a similar setup to the RAV4, at least in hardware, the Venza gets softer springs and shocks, which let it lean more into corners and absorb more irregular pavement. The Venza’s ride benefits from Lexus-like damping. It favors measured acceleration and low grades. Of note, the Venza’s navigation system programs itself to take the most efficient routes, with optimal legs chosen for braking, acceleration, and cruising. The transition’s orderly, but noticeable. There’s some imprecision in its braking, too: it’s not grabby, but a tap on the brakes sends the Venza into regenerative braking first, then into its conventional brakes. The result: 0-60 mph acceleration of about seven seconds, very smooth integration of gasoline and electric power, and a slushy feel to acceleration since the Venza’s gearless transmission moves around its powerband to maximize economy wherever it can. Toyota fits its hybrid 2.5-liter inline-4 into the Venza for a net of 219 hp one of the system’s three motors powers the rear wheels for a technically interesting version of all-wheel drive. The Venza’s an above-average drive it’s a 6. Toyota reaches for the fuel-economy stars in the 2022 Venza, but acceleration and handling don’t fall off the to-do list entirely. It’s a cut above the treatment in other Toyota crossovers, even the pricier Highlander. Fitted with a standard 8.0-inch touchscreen or an available 12.3-inch touchscreen, the dash gets wrapped in soft synthetic leather and stitched in contrasting colors for a tailored appearance. The drama’s saved for the angular, tech-laden dash. Toyota paints thin lines of chrome to dress it up, and fits bright polished wheels to bling it up slightly, but the Venza mutes almost everything else: it’s a lozenge that’s meant to soothe drivers. Minus the Lexus hourglass grille, the shape’s soft wedge and coupe-like rear come off rakish but not racy. The hard shadows cast by the rigid lines of the 4Runner and RAV4 have been erased, and replaced with gentle edges and flowing curves.
The Venza channels an inner Lexus for its urbane shape. We give it a 7, with extra points for the interior and exterior. Though it shares some running gear with the angular RAV4, it has a suave, sculpted shape and a richer interior. Prices top out with the $41,215 Venza Limited, which offers navigation, a surround-view camera system, synthetic leather upholstery, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen.

It’s $33,885 for a Venza LE with cloth seats, an 8.0-inch touchscreen, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. How much does the 2022 Toyota Venza cost? The NHTSA and IIHS both give it their top overall ratings, though the feds have some notes on its front-impact performance. Toyota counts 28.8 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats, accessed from behind a standard power tailgate.Įvery Venza has automatic emergency braking, active lane control, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. The front power-adjustable buckets have ample support, and even the back bench has good leg room, but head space and cargo ratings suffer some from the rounded roofline. The two-row Venza can be had with cloth upholstery, but most versions get synthetic leather on all five seats. The ride’s tuned to soak up the road and to leave steering precision behind if it must the trade-off’s a good one, as it feels composed, even when it leans into corners. It slips discreetly through an infinite set of gear ratios, delivering all-wheel drive from a dedicated motor that powers the rear wheels. The Venza performs with 39-mpg combined hybrid efficiency, but acceleration to 60 mph in about seven seconds behind a wall of sound deadening leaves little room for complaints. With a pretty, coupe-like roofline, the Venza also has a stylish interior and a dash wrapped in synthetic leather for a premium touch that lifts it close to Lexus territory. It’s the same look no matter which trim you choose: sleek, shapely, softly rounded, the opposite of Toyota’s hard-edged 4Runner and RAV4. Toyota carries over the hybrid crossover in LE, XLE, and Limited versions.
With excellent fuel economy, a quiet demeanor, and a slippery body, it earns a TCC Rating of 7.2 out of 10.
