Style over substance
I have bought over two dozen new Toyota’s and the 2023 Venza Limited was so poorly designed I sold it a week after I took delivery. It was, by far, the worst new car experience I have ever had in over forty years. From the outside, it looks great. However, style doesn’t overcome the very poor ergonomics inside including limited space, no place to put anything, and a illogically placed start button. The large 12.3” display is simply too large and extends too high and is distracting. But the main issue is a design flaw caused by the deep 10” square hole in the dash for the HUD display. The windshield, in order to reflect the projected HUD display, is highly reflective. The speakers in the A frames reflect brightly on the windshield. But the reflection of the bezel around the deep cutout for the HUD directly in the drivers field of view looking down the road. This is not the actual HUD display but simply a reflection of the bezel and cutout in the dash for the HUD display. Because this reflection impairs the view of the road neither my wife nor I felt comfortable driving the vehicle. Toyota Customer Service agreed it was distracting but offered no solution. The dealer was, sorry, you are stuck with it. Even if you can overcome the poor ergonomics you should stay away from the Limited model at the very least or any other Toyota model that has a similar HUD design. It truly is a very bad design and surprising that any design engineer could think otherwise. I could have lived with the poor ergonomics. But not being able to see clearly down the road was the last straw. So if you are thinking buying any Toyota model with a HUD display be sure to drive it first during the day with the sun in front or to the side of you to be sure you can live with it. I sure couldn’t.

Great looking car that has a nice smooth ride
So far with only 170 miles on the Venza the gas tank gage has not moved off full. I hope I do not have a defective gage! (Ha ha). Apple car play a huge plus and an app that does more than I would have ever expected. Such as remote start, lock unlock doors and indicate if any of the windows are open. It does take a little while to get used to starting the car and not hearing the engine rev.

My first hybrid
Only owned this Venza XLE about a month but really enjoying this car. Getting 42 mpg. Very comfortable and nicely finished. Standard radio speakers could be better at this price point. Side mirrors do not auto dim when bright lights approach from behind which are distracting with brightness of today’s headlights. The rear view mirror does auto dim. Auto dimming headlights are a great feature for night driving. Continue to be very pleased with this vehicle.
