Toyota Venza engines

The Toyota Venza is a mid-size 5-seater crossover from Toyota Motor Corporation. Production began in 2008 and was focused on the North American market. However, in 2013, the car also began to be manufactured for the Russian consumer. Since 2015, the model has ceased to be sold in the United States, and a year later in Russia. Today the car is officially sold in the markets of China and Canada. The name of the model comes from a combination of two words – Venture (adventure) and Monza (a popular racing track in Italy).

The Toyota Venza was offered with 4 engines since 2008 (4 petrol). Displacement ranges from 2.0 to 3.5 liters, power output from 170 to 280 hp. All of them use a timing chain. The longest rated lifespan belongs to the Toyota 2GR-FE (about 400,000 km).
