I don't know the actual measurement, bit it feels like an inch or more -

Sit in the seat and pull up on the front of the seat power switch - the front rises - now pull up on the rear of the switch and the rear rises. Now you are in the highest position.

I haven't tried it but you should just be able to put a finger at both ends of the switch and pull up, and the seat will rise. That's how my Honda works anyway.


If you really want to know how much, just have the seat all the way down, then choose a reference point to measure from the floor carpet or door sill. Then raise the seat all the way, and measure to that reference point again.

 

The venza goes pretty far up. I like my seat high and I'm 5'8. If I lean forward to shoulder check the left side, I hit my head on the pillars. That never happen in my CRVs or my old civic.

 

My 5' 4" wife has no problem getting the seat high enough to suit her.

But it reminds me of one feature I wish were included in our (2011) Venza: the ability to memorize seat settings for a driver and to then toggle between them with a single push of a button.

 

^Wish for that too. Never did until the Venza, but my wife likes a different setup than I do so it would certainly be put to use.

 

My Venza has a memory seat. Were they not available before '13? Of course my '15 HL doesn't and doesn't have a power passenger seat ... go figure.

 

Might not be in my 2011 since it's an LE.

 

I think you need an XLE or limited.

 

My 2015 XLE will remember two different settings.

 

Delightful,roomy and beauty what got me into the venza. the beauty of the venza got me was it does not look like any other vehicle .

it is good that you read the manual and noticed the seat height adjustment. never knew that option for the last 3 years until the wife discovered one day
