Excuse the interruption but we’re taking a quick break from our Geneva Motor Show coverage to bring you some…ahem…mildly interesting news on the Toyota Venza crossover.
The Japanese automaker has just confirmed the presentation of the redesigned 2013 Venza at the upcoming New York Auto Show in April.
Toyota also released the first official image that partially reveals the tweaked front headlamp and grille assembly. According to the automaker, the styling changes will also include a new lower grille, fog lamps and rear taillights along with a fresh set of alloy wheel designs and exterior colors.
For the 2013 model year, the Venza will continue to be offered with the same trim levels but Toyota has improved the standard equipment across all grades.
If you’re still with us, the LE grade gains new standard features such as Display Audio, Blind Spot Mirror, puddle lamps and outer mirror turn signals, while the LE benefits from the addition of Driver Memory Seat, Reverse Tilt Outer Mirrors and Display Audio with Navigation and the Toyota Entune multi-media system.
Finally, the V6-powered Limited model gets standard LED Daytime Running Lights and Premium HDD Navigation with Entune and JBL speakers.
