The Toyota Venza was/is a car that, in fact, existed. Apparently they’re discontinued, yet in the US, 13 have been sold so far this year. You may now go back to forgetting about the Venza.

Another reminder - the honda accord crosstour was developed specifically to fight this car/SUV/crossover. The venza spanked the crosstour so hard, even the base accord still has handprints on it....

Huh. I feel like Honda missed the point entirely.

Didn’t Toyota whiff here, too?

Build for the youths, attract the olds
Build for the olds, attract no one
Solution - build for newborns

They sold a decent amount of them, so I guess they came out okay?

Just checked AutoTrader, and there’s still a couple for sale around the country, too.
One in California, one in Iowa, one in Pennsylvania, one in West Virginia. All 2015s.
So, that number might still climb a little more by the end of the year.

They certainly came closer than the Crosstour, I just had the impression that the Venza still fell short of Toyota’s expectations, I guess.

I think I had one of those as a rental from Avis once. Can’t be too sure though, although I do remember some Avis locations having Toyotas for rent.

I actually thought the pre-facelift version was quite good looking. Post-facelift not as much.
