Is Toyota making a 2024 Venza?
Yes. Toyota offered a 2024 Venza as part of its model lineup, continuing the hybrid-only Venza as a five-seat crossover with practical efficiency and versatile space. This article explains what that means, what changed for 2024, and how it fits into Toyota’s broader SUV lineup.
Overview: where the 2024 Venza fits in Toyota’s lineup
The Toyota Venza returned in 2021 as a modern, hybrid-only crossover built on Toyota’s TNGA architecture. For 2024, Toyota kept the same broad formula—a five-passenger, family-friendly SUV focused on efficiency and comfort—while sequencing minor updates rather than a complete redesign. The Venza emphasizes a refined interior, user-friendly tech, and a balanced driving feel that sits between the smaller RAV4 and larger Highlander in Toyota’s SUV hierarchy.
Powertrain and performance
The 2024 Venza uses a hybrid system that combines a gas engine with electric motors, coordinated through a CVT-style transmission. The setup is tuned for smooth, predictable acceleration and strong efficiency, with power routed to the wheels via Toyota’s hybrid drivetrain technology. This configuration is designed to deliver solid everyday performance while prioritizing fuel economy and quiet operation, especially in urban driving.

- Discontinued but available: While the Venza is being discontinued, there are still 2025 model year Venzas available for purchase.
- Replaced by Crown Signia: The 2025 Toyota Crown Signia is essentially the new Venza, but with a more luxurious focus.
- Sales performance: The decision to discontinue the Venza was partly due to its modest sales numbers compared to other Toyota offerings.
- Premium positioning: The Crown Signia is positioned as a more premium vehicle, with a higher price point, but it aims to fill the gap left by the Venza in the market.
Why is the Toyota Venza not selling?
Market repositioning and overlap: Toyota phased out the first-generation Venza (2008--2015) because it overlapped with other Toyota models (Camry, RAV4, Highlander) and sales were modest. The Venza's mid-size crossover niche was narrow--between sedans and larger SUVs--so Toyota chose to consolidate offerings.
