2012 Toyota Venza - class-leading cargo capacity |
‘Tis the season for jingle bells, snowmen, and stuffing your
car with a load of loot that makes Santa ashamed of the hauling capacity of his
sleigh. Edmunds.com recently studied the versatile segment of wagons and hatchbacks
to determine which offered the most cargo room to deliver the goods to all the
nice boys and girls on your list.
Hatchbacks and wagons were chosen because they can accommodate
packages of widely varying shapes and sizes. The also offer easy loading and
unloading through wide openings and lower floors than most trucks and SUVs, as
well as being easier to park and maneuver in crowded mall parking lots.
Rankings were determined by the available cargo space,
measured in cubic feet, when all seats were in position. Confirming our opinion
that a new Toyota should be at the top of all Christmas lists, Toyota cars
claimed two of the top ten spots.
The 2012 Toyota Prius V tied for first place, with 34.3
cubic feet of cargo space. In addition to its hauling abilities, Edmunds.com
reviews also praised the 2012 Prius V for its excellent fuel efficiency of
44/40 city/highway mpg. It also offers increased passenger room when compared
to the standard Toyota Prius. The 2012 Prius V received the highest possible
ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety as well.
Number five on the list is the 2012 Toyota Venza, offering
cargo space that measures 30.7 cubic feet. According to Emdumds.com, the 2012
Venza “avoids the apparent arrogance of an SUV, the stigma of a minivan and the
ambivalence of a crossover; it simply works.” The Venza is equipped with many
design features that maximize its interior space and offers many other
trim-specific options. The 2012 Venza is available with a four-cylinder or V6
engine and offers front-wheel or all-wheel drive options.
For more information, or to test drive the Prius V, the
Venza, or any other Toyota model you’d like to see wearing a big red bow in
