Toyota Venza, Prius V Offer Most Space for Stuff

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 your driveway, visit Toyota Scion of Concord near Charlotte or call 704-979-7700. Our sales team and finance department are busy little elves, working to make sure everyone is happy on Christmas morning.

2013 Toyota Avalon in Running for Best Car to Buy 2013

2013 Toyota Avalon

The Car Connection, a car review site whose contributors drive more than 300 cars so you don’t have to, has released their nominees for the Best Car to Buy 2013, and the Toyota Avalon is on the list.

To determine the Best Car to Buy 2013, The Car Connection narrowed the field to thirty eligible vehicles. Eligibility requirements included a base price of under $50,000, availability to be road tested before December 1, 2012, and ability to be purchased before April 30, 2013. Vehicles that meet those requirements are then given scores in areas of safety, performance, styling, features, comfort and utility, and a “green rating” that considers fuel economy.

According to The Car Connection, “the remaining cars, trucks, and crossovers include some of the best vehicles we’ve tested in our careers at High Gear Media, with some true historical milestones among them.” One of those elite vehicles is the 2013 Toyota Avalon.

The Car Connection review of the 2013 Avalon praised Toyota for allowing the Avalon to break out of its formerly conservative shell, with a flowing body design that strikes the perfect balance of relaxed but a little sporty. The car is actually smaller than previous models, but reviewers found the interior to have a more spacious feel, with quality materials, comfortable seating, modern instrument technology, and overall attention to detail.

Reviewers were most impressed with the performance of the new Toyota Avalon. The V6 model sets a high standard, becoming “quicker and more responsive in every way” than older models. However, most notable is the Avalon Hybrid, whose performance rivals that of the V6 Avalon, with slightly slower acceleration, but with a “level of refinement that might even fool some traditional Avalon shoppers.”

The Car Connection scored the 2013 Toyota Avalon as follows (all scores out of 10): Interior/Exterior – 8, Performance – 8, Quality – 9, Safety – 9, Features – 8, Fuel Economy – 9.

Final winners of The Car Connection’s Best Car to Buy 2013 will be announced on December 10, but you don’t have to wait. You can test drive a 2012 Toyota Avalon, and many other new Toyota cars, today at Toyota ofConcord near Charlotte. We can help you decide for yourself which Toyota is the best car for you to drive in 2013!
