"I have my Venza for 1 year now and I couldn't be happier. I'm averaging 26 mpg (4 cyl) with mix of road and city. The car is well finished, roomy, has enough power for me and has a nice looking. I had a Cx-7 before and definitely the venza is overall superior. I paid 30K with 0 interest rate. I ride 400 miles/week and I feel it saves me some money on gas."

"I am happy with this car. I make a 400 mile round trip every week and usually get 28-31 MPG on the freeway with the 4cy. (now have 22K in 9 months) It has plenty of power and I have some heavy pulls on this trip. This car seems to ride better with more weight. i.e. 4 adults and luggage. Only issue has been popping sounds under front bumper area. Happened on the first road trip in heavy wind and on and off until I found the problem. "I" finally figured out it was the plastic under carriage air deflector under the front bumper. The dealer said "no one else" had that complaint I suggested they install 2 screws on each side while it was up on the rack for service. It did the trick. I think Toyota should make more of the fact the Venza is built in the USA. (the Chevy Equinox is built in Canada) Go figure. My three drawbacks. The cruise control is not precise, the radio screen is impossible to see on a bright sunny day, and I don't like the dimmer switch for the dash lights. It's in a very awkward position. Over all I would buy this car again. I am especially pleased with the gas mileage."

"I was skeptical about going for a Toyota Venza, being a sedan person. my wife encouraged me and I purcased a 4 cylinder AWD. I have been pleasantly surprised. While reviews have pressed the 6 cylinder, we have found the 4 cylinder to be more than enough power, and I ahve been averaging overe 25 mpg. I car is comfortable and we included the comfort package, which includes leather, heated seats and "wood grain paneling." It handles like a charm and we are looking to enjoy many miles of driving."

"I purchased this car in March 2010. Love it !! I'm 6'3" and have more room in it than in any car I have previously owned. I definitely would suggest the V6. It has loads of git-up-and-go. It is very comfortable on long road trips. It's quiet, roomy, stable and my mom says rides better than her 2009 Avalon. Towing with it is great and I don't notice the trailer with bike when traveling, you can forget it's back there. Fuel mileage is good and being able to run on regular is great. One option I would suggest is a V6 hybrid to give it even better range. It's my families primary travel car which explains the almost 23k miles in the first year. The looks and thumbs up I receive when driving it are great. I still get a lot of "Hey what is that? That is nice and Its a Toyota ?!?! Where can I get one?". I'm one satisfied Dad and looking forward to many miles in my Venza."

"Simple needs were addressed w/this product. CUpholders that WORK!!! An ample PLUS storage (front) console... Room. Room. Room. And great looks. Same comment overall by the public. Is that a new LEXUS? Little disappointed in the lack of promotion by Toyota on this product."

"We bought a 2010 Venza new after looking for weeks at every SUV and crossover out there! Before the Venza I had a 2009 Honda Pilot and loved it, but needed to downsize. The Venza has as much room in the back seat as the Pilot for carseats and boosters. I hated that every 5 passenger we looked at was really a 4 seater with a console after we put the carseats in! I was so frustrated that no one made enough room for someone to sit comfortably in the middle of the back seat! I wanted cup holders for my kids and me and lots of storage and console space for toys and my stuff too! I refuse to buy a minivan, but I see why people do! I wanted a cool mom car and the Venza is definitely that! I love the leather, push button start, push button hatch open/close, the lights are so amazing at night! I could go on and on, plus the reliability of a toyota! If you have kids and want space and still have a cool mom car the Venza is for you!!!"

"Not bad for a Japanese car. They can work on it, like gas mileage or too soft steering wheel up to 40 miles per hour. no regrets overall"

Toyota Venza Better than Murano

"I traded in my 2004 Murano for a 2010 Venza. BEst decision I ever made! Venza is more spacious (wider) more comfortable and much better looking. Also I can't believe how much better the Toyota performs with the same amount of horsepower! I had my power seat come off the track on the Murano THREE DAYS after the extended warranty expired and Nissan WOULD NOT FIX IT - even though I never made a single claim against the $1500 policy during the time I owned the car. I looked on line and found out that exact seat problem was something Murano owners were experiencing quite often. I will never buy Nissan again! They DO NOT stand behind their product..........."

"We purchased the 2010 Venza a little over a month ago and, wow - are we ever pleased! The car is comfortable, has a very smooth ride, and performs great. We feel like we're in a much more expensive luxury car. We liked the exterior when the car first debuted in 2009, but now we LOVE it; very classy. The only issue we have encountered is the design of the storage bins in the console...a little awkward, but we're getting used to it now. Overall, we would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone."
