Toyota Venza 2021: Price range and models

The 2021 Venza will be offered in three trim levels: LE, XLE, and Limited. The standard equipment on the LE includes a power driver’s seat, an 8.0-inch touchscreen, a power liftgate, 18-inch wheels, and many driver-assistance features.

Toyota hasn’t released the official prices as yet, but we expect to hear from them on that soon. According to our estimates, Toyota Venza 2021 will start in the mid-$30,000/ 24,311  pounds range estimated to be starting at $32,000/ 26,170 British Pounds and go up to around $45,000 when fully loaded. Toyota anticipates the all-new Venza 2021 to hit around 50,000 annual sales in the American market. It will reach U.S. dealerships in August.

Exterior

Toyota Venza Hybrid 2021 utilizes the automaker’s ubiquitous 2.5-litre four-cylinder hybrid powertrain. The system produces a total of 219 horsepower, which is on par with the RAV4 Hybrid – an immensely popular vehicle within the US. While the power specs aren’t exactly thrilling, acceleration might be good if we are to go by the RAV 4 model. The Venza is equipped with a standard all-wheel-drive (AWD) system which employs three electric motors (two powering the front wheels and one for the rear). This powerful construction should definitely help it hustle when the accelerator pedal is pressed.

Since no other two-row midsize offers a hybrid, the Venza’s powertrain should make it the fuel economy leader in the segment. Toyota estimates the base LE trim will return 40 miles per gallon (mpg) combined which is a pretty impressive average ideal for your long rides. Fuel economy especially comes in handy when you’re driving on mountainous areas where fuel stations are miles apart.

Interior

Toyota Venza 2021’s interior is a fashionable one as it comes packed with a state of the art cabin with a wide array of advance tech features. It is flanked by a leatherette trim that extends from the centre console to the doors.

Venza 2021 is equipped with heated front seats. The air-conditioning feature is pretty good and economical as it can activate the fans solely for occupied seats for further fuel savings. One of the most intriguing features is the optional Star Gaze panoramic electrochromic glass roof.

  • 12.3-inch touchscreen display
  • Digital rearview mirror
  • Head-up display
  • Surround-view parking camera
  • Rear camera cleaning system
  • Digital rearview mirror
  • Android Auto
  • Apple CarPlay
  • Amazon Alexa

The Venza is also equipped with Toyota Safety Sense 2.0, a suite of advanced safety and driving aids.

The XLE and Limited models further add an automated parking function.
