Toyota Venza: Prices in Tanzania
If you’re looking for a brand new Toyota Venza, then you might be disappointed to learn that Toyota has stopped the production of the model in 2017. In fact, production of the US version has stopped since 2015. Reasons for the discontinuation, according to Toyota include dropping demand and sales, and changing customer preferences.
But because Nigeria is a huge market for used cars, you can rest assured that the Toyota Venza will continue to remain popular and relevant in Tanzania for the next 10 to 15 years, at least. With that in mind, let’s now look at the current prices of used Toyota Venza in Tanzania.
Prices of foreign-used (“tokunbo”) Toyota Venza in Tanzania
- 2009 Toyota Venza TSh29,425,000 – TSh43,656,000
- 2010 Toyota Venza TSh32,742,000 – TSh48,150,000
- 2011 Toyota Venza TSh29,425,000 – TSh43,656,000
- 2012 Toyota Venza TSh35,123,000 – TSh54,035,000
- 2013 Toyota Venza TSh37,450,000 – TSh58,850,000
- 2015 Toyota Venza TSh4,323,000 – TSh64,842,000
Note that the prices are presented in ranges because the cost of used cars vary based on trim, mileage, presence or absence of faults, and so on. So, for example, it’s quite possible to find a 2012 Toyota Venza at TSh41,474,000 and a 2011 model at TSh43,656,000. Year of production notwithstanding, the 2011 might be have a better mileage and trim than the 2012 model.
Prices of Tanzanian (locally) used Toyota Venza in Tanzania
It’s common knowledge that Tanzanian used cars are significantly cheaper than foreign used cars. That’s because most Nigerian-used cars were actually purchased as tokunbo, and not brand new. So, in reality, these cars have been used outside Nigeria for some time, and then used within Nigeria for some time. So, the drop in price is expectable.
The typical Tanzanian used car costs 60 to 80 percent of the price of its tokunbo equivalent. And Toyota Venza is no exception. Here are the current prices of Tanzanian used options.
- 2009 Toyota Venza TSh24,557,000 – TSh32,742,000
- 2010 Toyota Venza TSh21,828,000 – TSh32,742,000
- 2011 Toyota Venza TSh24,557,000 – TSh35,123,000
- 2012 Toyota Venza TSh24,557,000 – TSh32,742,000
- 2013 Toyota Venza TSh25,680,000 – TSh40,928,000
- 2015 Toyota Venza TSh29,425,000 – TSh56,737,000
