The 2012 Toyota Venza utilizes intelligent designs in the interior which make every day life easy. One-touch fold down rear seats is a prime example. A simple handle in the trunk and on the side of the seats folds your seats down quickly instead of the struggling process that usually goes with folding seats. Awkwardly pushing and pulling, all the while, leaning into your vehicle on your tippy toes. The front console has a large array of utility features such as small and large storage spaces, adjustable and illuminated cup holders and docking for portable entertainment devices that includes a “hidden-wire” routing system.
The exterior of the 2012 Toyota Venza has a unique artful design and intelligent engineering. Driver sightlines are enhanced because of the sweeping slope of the Venza’s cowl and hood. For example, the sweeping slopes combined with short overhangs, create excellent driver sight-lines over the front of the vehicle. The Venza also has automatic high beams that automatically switch between “low” and “high” in response to oncoming traffic. Now you don’t have to worry about being that “jerk” who high beams everyone, just because you are too focused on the road.
