Toyota Venza
The Venza joins other Toyota vehicles in offering a darker-looking Nightshade Edition. The Star Gaze panoramic roof with electrochromic glass technology is available on this model, too. Also for 2023, the two-row crossover is upgraded to version 2.5 of Toyota Safety Sense, and there are some equipment revisions across the lineup. All models get a new multimedia system with an intelligent voice assistant. The Venza’s powertrain remains a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine combined with three electric motors.
