Village Pointe Toyota Previews the New Venza
A midsize crossover with Camry roots, the Toyota Venza is anything but your typical SUV. It features extensive room for its size, seating up to five passengers and offering 36.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, and comes with a grand amount of available features including, an Entune multimedia system and a panoramic glass roof. Rolling into 2014, the Venza continues to offer these luxurious amenities and adds two new components to its lineup: rear parking sonar (Limited) and power-folding mirrors (Limited & XLE). These fresh features, along with the crossover's capable 3.5L V-6 engine, appeal to Omaha buyers looking for a vehicle with style, functionality and versatility, and make it a top choice in its class.
The 2014 Toyota Venza is the perfect vehicle for buyers with families. It can seat up to five passengers with ease and features 39.1 cubic feet of legroom in the backseat, providing substantial space for both children and adults. A one-touch seat lever also allows drivers to fold down the backseat in order to increase cargo space when transporting large items. Once the seat is down, 70.2 cubic feet of maximum space is provided for drivers to take advantage of. Additional offerings available within the cabin include an array of advanced features such as Entune Audio, navigation, leather-trimmed seating, heated front seats, push button start, dual-zone automatic climate control and an anti-theft system.
Available in front-wheel and all-wheel drive, the Toyota Venza can be fitted with either a four cylinder or V-6 engine. The base 2.7L four-cylinder delivers 181 horsepower and 182 lb.-ft. of torque, while the 3.5L V-6, praised in various 2014 Toyota Venza reviews, exerts 268 horsepower and 246 lb.-ft. of torque. Each version comes with a six-speed automatic transmission and exhibits similar fuel economy ratings, but if you want speedy acceleration, the all-wheel-drive V-6 is your best bet - it jets from zero to 60 mph in 6.9 seconds. For frequent haulers, a towing package is also available, supporting the Venza's 3,500-pound towing capacity.
