The midsize five-passenger Toyota Venza outshines both its more compact RAV4 and larger Highlander siblings.
Everything about the Venza feels polished, starting with its smooth gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain. The setup provides standard all-wheel-drive and excellent EPA fuel economy estimates.
On the road, the Venza feels particularly rewarding, with precise steering and nimble handling. Likewise, the ride quality is quite smooth.
Inside, the cabin offers ample room for four adults. Top trim levels feature interiors that border on posh. Figure in other neat details, like a slick electrochromic sunroof option that goes from clear to opaque with the press of a button, and you have an eco-friendly crossover that stands out from the crowd.
