Now that the 2021 Toyota Venza is here, Toyota has almost as many hybrid crossovers as cars. Not only that, but the 3 hybrid crossovers (Venza, RAV4 Hybrid and Highlander Hybrid) are strangely similar to each other. To resolve differences and help you determine which hybrid is right for you, we’ve combined this convenient paper comparison. Of course, you can also make the sensible decision to buy an Avalon hybrid, but we assume you need a crossover here.
The value of Venza is in spite of everything available, so we can give you a proper comparison with the included values. If you need a full immersion in this new crossover, check out our First Drive review that was released this morning.
Now the spec comparison table.
This segment will be short. The Venza and RAV4 Hybrid use the same powertrain configuration, providing almost the same fuel economy. The RAV4 hybrid is ahead of the Venza through 1 mpg, making it a draw. They’re also not fast, but we give the functionality to the RAV4 hybrid as presented in the sportier version XSE.
Toyota will allow you to specify a hybrid front-wheel drive Highlander, but all-wheel drive is available as an option. With the Highlander you will lose about five miles per gallon in all categories, but that’s only because it’s a bigger and much heavier vehicle. To make up for this, Toyota gave him 24 more horses than the other two.
It is in this segment that he realizes what the Venza and the RAV4 Hybrid are like. Toyota technically classifies the Venza as an intermediate crossover, but its internal dimensions are or smaller than those of the hybrid RAV4, which is 5.7 inches shorter. They have exactly the same wheelbase and width, but because Toyota gave the Venza an elegant and sloping roof design, the RAV4 is a little larger.
This difference in form highlights a merit of key implementation of rav4. Its box shape provides more headroom in the rear seats than the Venza and Highlander. Now we’ve sat in all three, and none of them are restrictive. However, loading parts such as baby seats or other larger parts into the back seat is less difficult with a suitable roof line. The elderly will also enjoy riding on the back of the RAV4 Hybrid more than the Venza. We’ll also notice that the loose height increases if you don’t specify the characteristics of the transparent sunroof of those crossovers. If you’re looking for legroom, the Highlander is 3.2 inches taller than the Venza and RAV4 Hybrid. Again, it is a larger and longer vehicle, so it is no surprise.
The square shape of the RAV4 Hybrid is again useful when looking at the shipping area. Although it is a smaller vehicle than the Venza, it has an additional 8.9 cubic feet in the rear hold. This is enough to give it a resounding victory, and its shape makes the area and more useful. Because Toyota has installed such a sloping rear bezel on the Venza, stacking items in the most sensitive part of the shipping warehouse can create a geometric problem. The more vertical shape of the RAV4 lends itself to less difficult stacking and closing. This will be convenient if you load multiple bags or moving boxes, but you may not be larger than the Venza for responsibilities such as buying groceries or taking the children to their extracurricular activities.
The key point to note here is that you won’t lose your app by opting for the smaller (and cheaper) hybrid RAV4. Like the Space in the Highlander’s back seat, the three-row Highlander has more area than the other two in its row at the moment through a decent margin.
Toyota has placed the Venza as the intermediate crossover in terms of value. It costs $4,340 more than the cheapest hybrid RAV4 and $5,510 less than the core Highlander hybrid. The biggest challenge we see with value here is its premium compared to the RAV4 hybrid. However, Toyota not only qualifies more without giving more.
The interior of the Venza is much more exclusive than the RAV4 in terms of design and generation improvements. You also have the option to opt for other premium features that you can even have on the RAV4 Hybrid. For example, the Venza has a popular 8-inch infotainment screen with the ability to transfer it to a 12.3-inch screen. The RAV4 starts with a seven-inch screen and the update is 8 inches. If you opt for the Venza Limited, you can choose the fairly panoramic “Star Gaze” roof that can be frozen or defrosted at the touch of a button. In addition, the Venza offers a front demonstration that the RAV4 Hybrid does not have. In the end, you pay for more luxury and design with Venza, not for additional use.
Toyota says The Venza plays with other intermediaries like the Chevy Blazer, Ford Edge, Hyundai Santa Fe, Honda Passport and Nissan Murano, and we also have a comparative item that pits them against each other. However, the closest competitor of all can be the RAV4 Hybrid. We think opt for the hybrid RAV4 if the application and adventure in nature (see the comparison of free space on the floor) are your priorities. Take a Venza if you have the budget and enjoy a high-end interior or prefer your sporty form. Finally, if the area (and a third row) is the ultimate in importance, the Highlander Hybrid awaits the scenes.
