2021 Toyota Venza consumer reviews

I got the 2021 Venza LE in June 2021 to replace the 2015 Outback. Since then I drove 12800 miles on it and spent $1002.74 on gas. I averaged 42 MPG (all pump mileage, not the trip computer mileage) and it was a huge improvements over my 2015 Outback that got me about 29 MPG (80/20, Highway/City) over 189000 miles. The MPG was affected greatly by the ambient temperature as the gas engine kicked in to charge the battery more frequently on a cold day. The best was 46 MPG and the worst was 36 MPG (Winter storm and winter tires on). All Wheel Drive was not as good as the Outback but good enough to survive bad road conditions. Overall I am happy with it.

This car definitely looks great on paper- Great MPG- saves you ton of gas money! Comfortable seats, even in back rows. Good exterior styling- looks like an expensive high end SUV Quiet engines, premium features such as stop hold, heated seats (select models), big screens (select models), kick trunk open, parking sensors, climate control. Now, the bad side. Don't purchase the high end models as they come with junk GPS and a unusable big touch screen. The GPS is absolutely a junk compare to Google Maps, would route you to wrong places, taking detours, etc. The big touch screen are hard to navigate. Learn from TSLA if you want to make big screens! The battery actually drained two times within the first year of ownership. I had to research online and ask toyota dealership to update the firmware. Toyota should have issued a recall for that. The adaptive cruise control responds slower than a 2018 subaru! Lane keep assist is useless at California highway. The real view traffic alert has many false positives! It would alert when there's no car and no human. Overall, the car has great hybrid engine, comfortable, styling. But electronics are at junk level. Toyota needs to learn from Korean manufacturer or Tesla to make better electronics.

Don't pay attention to the bad reviews they are by car salesman of another brand. I bought the LE trim has physical controls not all the great features of the limited but just as good. I have had no problems with the gas tank-again phony reviews. This vehicle will get you 400000 miles guaranteed if you keep it that long.

I've developed a love affair with this Venza, I've named him Vincenzo. First, I'm a loyal Toyota driver to begin with, and the one time I considered a Lexus, side by side, the Venza was simply ahead!!! So quiet, inside and out, the interior is plush, and comfy. The ONLY thing I miss is the center console storage space - I was too spoiled with my Prius(es). A PLUS FUN feature is my glass roof that goes from clear to opaque at a touch of a button. I look forward to discovering all other features!

The 2021 Venza is the best car, overall, that I have owned. I got a Limited with the the digital mirror and all the safety features I wanted (which were just about all). My wife and are seniors and safety is important to us. The gas mileage is fantastic - always over 40 unless my lead foot steps in. I could not say enough about the SUV to match my 7 months of driving it.

The best car I have ever owned. It has excellent gas mileage. The car is great in the winter weather. I would totally recommend this car.

The car is very quiet . It's a hybrid and the mileage is very good. I like the seat. It fits me and I find it very comfortable. The info system is takes some getting used to.

The Toyota Venza is my first hybrid purchase and I cannot be happier. First of all, the exterior design is so Lexus like but at a Toyota price. I have had my Venza for over a month and I am currently getting 42.7 mpg and it seems the more I drive it, the better the gas mileage even on the highway. The interior design feels and looks upscale and it is extremely comfortable and quiet. Toyota did an excellent job in the sound insulation department with the Venza, it is quiet and smooth when driving it. I find the size of this vehicle to fit my needs and look forward to driving it for many years providing excellent gas mileage. I choose the Ruby Flare color with the Boulder interior (light grey) and really like the color combination. If your looking for a classy looking CUV with great gas mileage, go test drive a Venza and make your decision based on your experience.

Very comfortable for long trips, which was our principal need. We got the Limited model which is distinctly more comfortable for us. Downside is the level to which features of the car are controlled by the computer making them a bit confusing to control. Upside is that so far everything works flawlessly.

This car is Lexus level tech at a Toyota Price. I traded in my 2014 Accord EX for this and I could not be happier. The Venza is so nice to drive I cannot wait to take it on a long trip. Serious comfort. This has so many better conveniences than the Lexus 300NX it isn't even funny, for 7K less money.
