2012 Toyota Venza consumer reviews

2012 Venza LE, 4 cyl. Purchased in 2015 with 27K miles. Now 53K - loving every moment... Had absolutely no issues with the car, and I've been driving it every day. The only thing I had to do so har was to change oil and tires, cause factory tires worn out. First thing you notice when you drive it - it is a very comfortable and spacious car. I haven't seen any other cars with so much leg space for the rear seat passangers. There is a lot of space in the front as well. The style of the interior makes you feel that you are driving a Lexus. If you are looking for performance, perhaps you would want to get a 6 cyl AWD 230 hp model. It will be very useful during snow days. This one a FWD model is all about comfort. But even a 4 cyl LE model will give you 182 hp wich is more than enough for a mid size SUV. It is a rather unusual car - it's a SUV with a big trunk, a spacious sedan and sports wagon all in one. It is quite hard to find a similar car of other brands. In my opinion it's one of the most undervalued cars. There are few cons like road noise and rather big blind spots. But these are cons that you easily getting used to. All in all it's a very relieble, specious and quite comfortable SUV.

The Toyota Venza has been reliable beyond expectation. The back seat is just as comfortable as the front. The power lift gate is a wonderful feature. I also have a hitch so I can easily connect my bike rack. Everyone who has ridden in my car wanted to know what it was because the ride is quiet and smooth. I haven't had any issues at all. Just standard maintenance. The service I get at Toyota is also outstanding! !

I have had my Venza for nearly a year now and couldn't be happier! This vehicle is extremely versatile. It drives smoothly and handles more like a car than an suv. Surprising acceleration from a crossover that has a slight 'mini-van' appearance' to it. My favorite features include tons of storage space, lots of cupholders, impressive cargo area, spacious back seat and overall interior design. I love the big wheels as well!

This car's wide stance makes it very stable with good handling on all types of roads. The AWD is good in the snow. Averaging almost 22 mpg.

I had the best experience when shopping for my car and Fitzgerald auto insurance germantown, MD. Paul Cohen, was so great, patient, easy going, made me feel comfortable when I asked all of my crazy questions. The entire staff in germantown was so pleasant and patient. The finance guy in gaithersburg, Rockville location was great too,

The 2012 Venza is great! I had it for 3 years & loved it!...only complaint: FWD was extremely dangerous to drive in the snow (and I have driven other FWD cars perfectly fine in the snow). Get AWD if you are not in the South! +PROS: There is a lot of storage in the front cabin space (a nice compartment underneath the cup holders & a separate storage spot), it is a smooth ride (drove across US a few times), good trunk space, push button works well/is convenient, Toyota is a very nice company to work with, etc.

The Venza is a very stylish car inside and out. I traded my Toyota Sienna in for a 2012 Limited. I loved my Sienna but I really didn't need a vehicle that big. I have driven SUVs before and I don't really care for the bulkiness of SUVs. The Venza is a nice mix between my Van and traditional SUVs, easy to handle and spacious. On rough roads however, the rides can get a little rough, but I guess that the SUV portion of the Venza. I am very satisfied with the Venza.

I just bought this Venza XLE with a V-6 one week ago. I still smile every time a see it or drive it. I find it very comfortable, quiet and peppy. I can't wait to try it on a road trip. I am still learning how to use all the electronic and computerized bells and whistles, but I am having fun doing it. I

The Venza is a good, but not excellent car. Gas mileage too lowe 18 miles in town? Fairly soon I'll trade it in for a great Prius, which gets much better mileage

It's a great car except I was disappointed to find that the leather seats are not all leather. The panel that next to the center is fabric. Also, I'm finding the steering wheel is not all that comfortable after driving for a while. It is leather covered but is not padded.
