“This is an all-new Venza – and an all-new expression of what a mid-size crossover can be,” said Cyril Dimitris, Vice President, Toyota Canada Inc. “From performance, efficiency, and safety, to a long list of features and premium amenities as standard equipment, the Venza breaks new ground – and does so at an impressively accessible price.”

Venza’s interior pushes into luxury territory with premium materials and exceptional attention to detail. Ambient lighting welcomes up to five adults into a cabin synonymous with comfort, roominess, and versatility. The Venza sports an impressive 1,027 litres (36.3 cubic feet) of cargo space behind the rear seats – and the 60:40 split-folding seats offer up even more space when it’s required.

Venza’s impressive technology package is anchored by Connected Services by Toyota – a suite of smart technologies that help keep drivers safe, informed, and in touch with their vehicle. In addition, all models feature display audio systems with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.

Powered exclusively by Toyota’s industry-leading hybrid-electric powertrain technology, the new Venza combines advanced, confident, fun-to-drive performance with the best fuel-efficiency in the mid-size two-row crossover segment. It’s a bold, fresh example of how, by 2025, Toyota intends to offer Canadians an electrified option of every model it sells and have those vehicles represent 40 per cent of overall sales. Built around a 2.5L four-cylinder engine and three electric motors, the Toyota Hybrid System has been specially tailored to this model. The result is impressive power output matched by impressive fuel efficiency: 219 horsepower, smooth yet spirited acceleration, and an estimated fuel efficiency of just 6.1L / 100km (city/highway combined) to let you do more with less.

Venza also sets the bar high for safety with an impressive bundle of systems headlined by Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 – an advanced suite of technologies that enhance protection and support the driver’s awareness and decision-making. Other safety features on all models include the Toyota Star Safety System, Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert and a backup camera.

Toyota offers the Venza in three trim levels, as follows:

The 2021 Toyota Venza LE features 18” alloy wheels, a power liftgate, display audio system with 8” touch screen, a 4.2” multi-information display, leather-wrapped steering wheel on power-adjustable steering column, a wireless charging system for personal electronics, heated front seats, and an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat including an auto-slide-away function that moves the seat to the rearmost position to ease entry and exit. The Connect Services by Toyota on this model include Remote Connect, Service Connect, and Safety Connect.

The 2021 Toyota Venza XLE adds several upgrades, including 19” alloy wheels, a nine-speaker, 1200-watt JBL Audio System with 12.3” touch screen, a 7” multi-information display, soft-touch capacitive switches on the control panel, hands-free power liftgate, heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, a driver’s seat memory system and four-way power-adjustable front passenger’s seat, Softex leather seat cladding and intelligent clearance sonar with rear cross-traffic braking. The Connect Services by Toyota on this model include Remote Connect, Service Connect, and Safety Connect, plus Navigation.

The 2021 Toyota Venza Limited is immediately recognizable by its beautiful, Star Gaze fixed panoramic glass roof with frost control. Other enhancements over the XLE grade include a 10” head-up display, digital display rearview mirror, illuminated front scuff plates, rain-sensing wipers, and the Bird’s Eye View safety system with rear camera washer.
