As an SUV sibling to the Crown sedan, the Signia has a 243-hp AWD hybrid setup and promises a more spacious and luxurious cabin than the Venza it replaces.
The US market Venza existed for one reason and one reason only: insurance. The bean counters determined that the Toyota Harrier was a redundant model and that it should be discontinued, but hardcore supporters insisted on one more try and that they’ll sell any potential left overs overseas since Americans love CUVs. That backup plan in part allowed for the new Harrier to be green lit but it ended up being unnecessary since the car sold like hot cakes in JDM so very few got shipped to the states.
So they brought the Venza back just to kill it again?
