2023 Toyota Venza
he 2023 Toyota Venza continues to offer luxury features and Lexus-like styling at a Toyota price. New for 2023 is the Venza Nightshade Edition, which as the name suggests, replaces all the bright work for black elements on the exterior trim and wheels. Also, the latest Venza is now available with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster and infotainment system, bringing the Venza even closer to Lexus.
This second-gen Venza which debuted back in 2020, is still hybrid-only, and we see that as a good thing. A silky-smooth drive and the bargain price for premium features make this a very special Toyota indeed.
