The 2023 Venza is hybrid-only. Toyota gave the model a single powertrain, the 2.5L naturally aspirated four-cylinder it designates A25A-FXS, paired with the hybrid drive system on all four trims, so there is no gas-only version of this year to separate out first. The torque values, fluid specifications and diagnostic routines that apply to it are the hybrid ones throughout, and they do not carry over from the gas-engined first-generation Venza.

Known issues on the 2023 Venza. One recall is on record for this model year, 25V595000, an electrical system defect in the instrument cluster/panel. Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing is recalling certain 2023-2024 Toyota Venza, 2023-2025 RAV4 Prime, RAV4, Highlander, GR Corolla and Crown, and 2024-2025 Lexus TX, LS and Toyota Tacoma vehicles. An instrument panel display that does not show critical information can increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA also holds 28 owner complaints against the 2023 Venza, and Toyota has issued 52 technical service bulletins covering it.
With one powertrain, four trims and a single recall on record against the cluster, most work on a 2023 Venza comes down to hybrid-system diagnosis and maintenance carried out to Toyota's published values for this year.
