2015 Toyota Venza Review
Posted on October 21, 2014
Bold, sophisticated, confident, and refined are just four adjectives that perfectly describe the 2015 Toyota Venza. It's also what you'll be feeling when you get behind the wheel of this SUV and put it through its paces. The Venza's available in FWD, AWD, V6 FWD and V6 AWD models.
Modern Styling
The sweeping slope of the 2015 Toyota Venza's windshield and hood, combined with short overhangs, create excellent driver sight-lines over the front of the vehicle for maximum visibility. For even more visibility, the Limited Package features HID Headlamps with LED daytime running lights and automatic high beams, which switch between 'low' and 'high' on their own in response to oncoming traffic. The 2015 Toyota Venza eases entry and exit with intelligent measures that include a wide door opening, lowered seating hip point, and seat-side ledge that serves as a support platform for a hand. The front door panels extend to cover the rocker panel, keeping it free of mud and snow, and keeping your clothes free of debris when entering or exiting. The rear door opens high and wide for easier loading and unloading of the 2015 Toyota Venza. All models also feature a Power Assisted Trunk Closer that ensures the door locks securely every time you close it.
As you make your way inside the interior of the 2015 Toyota Venza, it is a spacious realm featuring classy little touches like Simulated Woodgrain Trim. It also offers innovative comfort amenities like an 8-way Power Adjustable Driver Seat with Memory and available 4-way Power Adjustable Seat for the front passenger. The rear seats split 60:40 and fold flat to open up a multitude of cargo-carrying possibilities. The Venza's elevated rear seat cushions provide a better view and the seatbacks can be reclined 14 degrees for added comfort. The 2015 Toyota Venza's HVAC system warms or cools the cabin quickly and quietly, and includes a High-efficiency Particulate and Pollen Filter. You can also opt to open the available Panoramic Glass Roof that features Power Tilt & Slide Front Glass with independently controlled front and rear Sunshades. Inside the 2015 Toyota Venza is Toyota's most advanced Display Audio System, which boasts a 6.1" Touch Panel Display Screen, AM/FM/CD/MP3 Player, SiriusXM satellite radio, AUX and USB audio inputs, automatic sound levelizer, Bluetooth capability, and voice recognition. Get even more audio options with an accessories package.
Premium Performance
Choose between two powerful engines, each one coming coupled with a 6-speed Super-intelligent Electronically Controlled Transmission that provides smooth gear shifting, better performance, and contributes to the 2015 Toyota Venza's remarkable fuel efficiency. Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence controls both intake and exhaust to achieve more power using less fuel and producing fewer emissions. All wheel drive models feature an Active Torque Control System that enables the Venza to switch seamlessly and automatically from front-wheel drive to 4-wheel drive, depending on driving conditions.
