    I just purchased one of these in silver (waiting for it to arrive) but if anyone it looking for a new vehicle I strongly encourage you to consider a Toyota. This will be my second Toyota, and the first one has been so amazingly reliable I just could not bring myself to buy anything other than a new Toyota. I also have a 2014 Prius which we are keeping - I just need something a little faster to battle the daily highway grind. People with their speedy vehicles are not patient with those of us that still have under 150 HP. My Prius is related at 45 MPG and often gets 55 MPG average on my daily commute.

    Great reliability, power and compliant. Took this beautiful car 660 miles from Oregon to CA and it was so comfortable. Only spent $94 dollars on fuel and keeping it above half tank every time before refueling. Seats are so comfortable and sports mode took the curvy roads very well. Straight away I used Econo-mode and the CVT didn’t bother me at all.

    Great review! My wife and I bought a Rav4 hybrid Limited last weekend. Your previous reviews really helped us to decide on which one (there are several!) we liked best. It has more power than expected, smooth ride and awesome mpg. Very pleased with purchase! The magnetic gray metallic is a cool color.
  • @al28854
    14:49 the 1 big advantage the RAV4 have over the CRV is that the Toyota has found a way to keep a PHYSICAL spare tire in the vehicle, while the Honda just didn't bother for some reason.
  • @Sergserg447
    Just got the Hybrid LE model last weekend. Family loves it, and it’s a great car. There’s a reason why they can’t make enough of them. Go buy it.
  • @MatthewTheCCMA
    Would absolutely love to have one of these! I currently drive a 2017 Corolla SE and the quality and reliability has been amazing so far thankfully. This gives me enough time for the prices of these to come down more in my price range 😂😂
  • @TheREALHelly
    I just put a deposit down on my xle premium today! When I went and did my test drives this past weekend, I started with the hybrid and then did the gas. my test drive with the hybrid was a good 30-40 minutes on and off highway. Gas model lasted 5 minutes if that, I was sold on the hybrid as soon as I left the lot. the hybrid has a huge improvement off the line
  • @autobuff1812
    I have the same exact color except mine is a 2023 with the addition of the technology package, panoramic sunroof, JBL, bodyside moldings and mirror with the camera. I purposely didn't get the crossbars as they contribute to increased wind noise. Currently getting over 40 MPG. Purchased it in September of last year at MSRP. No markup.
  • @andrewyang4319
    I bought my 2021 Rav4 Limited FWD made in Japan. After owning it for 3 years. I travel with it on the two months after my purchased. My wife and I travel from the East to the West in 10 states. The mpg on Freeway is 38 mpg, in the city 26-28 mpg depend on the traffics. I still enjoy the car and the performance is above my expectation.
  • @sachinnair91
    As good as Toyotas are, they’re not worth paying thousands over msrp. Here in Dallas, new Corollas and RAV4s are still marked up
  • @sennis1361
    Great review as always. Now that they finally added LED front turn signals on the SE XSE trims (only.. I think) I would really like them to add full LED lighting to the rear. Adding LED to backup lamps and turn signals Also. Want to see Toyota bring electric Folding outside mirrors to the RAV lineup Are all the interior lights now LED? I wish Toyota would install a cargo area light on the left as well as the right. Needed for sure back there What is the ground clearance and the turning radius? I think the decibel levels would be lower if you removed your cam and closed the Sunroof shade
  • @saurabhbhalla90
    you need to do sound level reading at 75mph as well! Most wind noise increases tremendously from 55 to 75mph
  • @ivanstefurak8726
    Thanks for cabin noise test!!! Individually for me it is very important!!!! Next time please do the test with sunroof shade close!!! Because when shade it’s open it’s extra noise!!!!!!!
  • @JWFas
    I test drove this and the CRV hybrid the same day. I found the CRV to be quieter and have a more comfortable ride. It also has adjustable brake regen (Rav4 doesn't).
  • @nuaym498
    If i am not wrong the 2023 xse had a full 12.3 inch digital gauge cluster and memory seats. Is that reserved for the limited for 2024?
  • @martindavila2232
    Except for the screen. It needs to be slightly tilted towards the driver to prevent reflection from the sun at certain times of the day.
