2009 Toyota Venza I4 4WD

The 2009 Toyota Venza I4 4WD is described fairly well by its name. This trim gets a 2.7-liter, DOHC, 16-valve I4 engine plus Toyota’s Active Torque Control All-Wheel Drive. The addition of the all-wheel drive system does add a little bit of weight to this trim (5,160 pounds gross vehicle weight) and detracts just slightly from its mileage – 20 city/28 highway mpg, down from the 21/29 of the Venza I4. Like the I4, the I4 4WD can come with any of the packages offered by Toyota, from Security to Comfort to Premium, so this vehicle can take many shapes.
