Fantastic Crossover to commute and travel in.

I have had the 2013 Venza for about 3 months and driven it 4500 miles. Definitely some pros and cons to the car but I LOVE it. Recently took a 1500 mile trip and went up mountains on dirtroads and it all handled it like a champ. I should mention I have the V6 XLE AWD version. Great value for the money without a doubt. Pros: -Great power with the V6, some dont mind the 4 cylinder but I wanted the max power I could get on the vehicle and it just performs perfectly. -20" wheels are very sporty and help in acceleration. -AWD option handles excellently. -A lot of trunk space. -PLENTY of leg room for everybody. -Apps are pretty cool. -Fuel mileage is great on the highway CONS: -fuel mileage is weak in the city. -20" wheels do hinder on the comfort level at times. -Wish there was a third row option -can be noisy at times during high speeds Would highly recommend the Venza. Power is there, comfort is there, im confident in the Toyota brand as this is my third toyota after having one for 5 and another for 4, and it is just so much fun to drive in!

awsome car, but early resale poor

best car for all winter driving,wil go throug anytihing you will end up pulling out it's competitors. the summer driving a bit rough but it's rivals feels the same when testing them, fuel consumption a little high in town but highway good. I mean it overall satisfaction is great , but plan to keep your car for over 3 years, early resale is poor, for the money you paid, specially if you get it with all the extra toys.

Not a relaxing highway car

Had a 2013 6-cyl Venza for about 3 months now. Love the interior and the layout of the controls and storage areas in the driver's area. Great car for around town driving, excellent acceleration for passing and great gas mileage. However recently took it on a long road trip and found the road noise very annoying, So loud I had to sometimes turn up the radio and had difficulty having a conversation. Could be the tires? It has the original tires so may try upgrading but seriously thinking about trading it for a quieter model. Also, noticed that the reflection of the dash on the front window is a big distraction, and the dash controls are difficult to see while driving in the daytime, OK at night when lit though.

2013 Toyota Venza

We purchased this car around 5 months ago. It had around 6,000 miles on it. We have been very happy so far. It is my 2nd Toyota. I drove a Honda Civic before this so backing up has been a bit of a challenge for me because it feels so long compared the car's that I have driven in the past (I am not a good judge of distance though so it's most likely me). It's a little early to speak about reliability but so far we have been very happy! I love the Bluetooth connection/hands free calling and the charging ports that it offers. It has several places to plug things in so we can use our portable GPS and have our son watching a movie on his portable DVD player at the same time, which is nice for longer trips.

Awesome Car

I have had a lot of cars and trucks. Had several sport cars as well. But I have the Venza with the V6, limited and its awesome. I drive a lot for work and thins makes for a good travel car plus an all around daily driver. The AWD system is absolutely the best. I would have to say its way better than the Subaru of any model that they offer. The Venza is absolutely better. I work in North Dakota on the rigs. And traveling down muddy and rocky and deep snowing oil field roads, I have never had an issue about getting anywhere. While the 4wd drive trucks and other awd cars are spinning out, I just cruise right on by them. I'm 41 and stepping down from a Audi, was the best choice I have made. I would definitely purchase another.

Love it more every day

I have had my 2013 Venza XLE for almost a year now and I love it more everyday. The versatility of this car is fantastic. I surf 2-3 times a week and I can fit a 10ft longboard inside with plenty of extra room. This car allowed me to not have to buy a truck or a large SUV . I get mostly 24mph. With 60/40 freeway/city driving. Very comfortable and roomy, and handles well. The V6 has plenty of pickup.
