2012 Toyota Venza
by Julie Paulk

Venza was designed with one principle in mind: to help you live life on your own terms and look good doing it. There comes a time in your life when you hit your stride. When you not only know where you’re going, but are well on the way there. This is part of the journey for which Venza was created.

From the moment you approach the 2012 Venza, you will be taken with its many thoughtful touches. XLE’s and Limited’s Smart Key System helps usher you inside. The step-in height is low, like in a sedan, while the seating position is elevated, like that of an SUV. The top of the dashboard, too, is low, resulting in an exceptional field of view and a refreshing sense of spaciousness. The fit and finish is precise. Go ahead. Revel in our obsession.

Some standard and optional features include:
- iPod/MP3 Player Holder With USB Port and Auxiliary Audio Jack
- Multi-Stage Heated Front Seats
- JBL Synthesis Surround Sound

With a choice of two efficient engines, a standard 182-hp 4-cylinder or the available 268-hp V6, Venza is both responsive and responsible. With the 4-cylinder Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) configuration, Venza received an EPA-estimated 21/27 city/highway mpg rating, while the available Venza V6 FWD received an EPA-estimated 19/26 city/highway mpg rating. Both engines offer smooth performance via a 6-speed Electronically Controlled automatic Transmission with intelligence (ECT-i). Perhaps best of all, both have received an Ultra Low Emission Vehicle II (ULEV-II) rating.

As attractive as the 2012 Venza is, it’s even more appealing when you consider the extensive array of both active and passive safety features it provides. It seems you’ve always known where you’re going. And Venza, with its available All-Wheel Drive (AWD) with active torque control, shares your knack for direction. AWD actively monitors each wheel, distributing the engine’s power to the appropriate wheel at the appropriate moment. This advanced technology helps to optimize traction on both wet and dry surfaces.
Toyota’s Star Safety System is a suite of six safety features offered standard on every new Toyota. The system includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA) and Smart Stop Technology (SST). Termed “active” safety features, they’re designed to operate in certain situations to help prevent accidents from occurring in the first place.
