  • #1RAV4Prime

    4 out of 5 starsby Craig Sterle on 05/12/2021

    After an almost 11 month wait, I now have my RAV4 Prime. It was purchased sight unseen, based on my wife’s experience with her 2 Prius Prime vehicles 9both from this dealership). The RAV4 Prime had great pre-sale reviews, so I’m hoping the hype is all true. So far, I haven’t driven it much. I came with no charge on the EV batteries, and had to be driven home using the gasoline engine. Once home, I fully charged the batteries. We drove to Jay Cooke State Park yesterday using the all-electric mode, and the screen said the mileage equivalent was 99.9mpg. That’s exactly what I was hoping for.... excellent fuel efficiency. When I more fully discharge the battery on these local trips, I’ll charge up again using power from our solar panels, minimizing our GHG footprint. Perfect! The only complaint was the long wait to receive the vehicle (not the dealer’s or salesman’s fault.... it’s due to MN not having adopted the Clean Car Standards, and thus being lower on the priority shipping list for EV and PHEV vehicles). The only shortfall at the dealership was the lack of charge in the EV batteries. Dealers should fully charge the batteries prior to customer pick-up. With a phase II charger it took me 5 hours to complete the charge. Dealers need to handle that for their customers, so the vehicle is fully functional when they receive it.

  • New Rav4 Hybrid

    5 out of 5 starsby Tony Ely mn on 05/11/2021

    I was interested in trading in my 2011 Rav4 and purchasing a new Rav4 Hybrid. After completing the Kolar online "Value your trade" tool Nicole contacted me by phone to discuss a 2021 Rav4 hybrid that they would be getting into inventory within a week. It was exactly what I was looking for. Went to the dealership and worked with Drew for the trade-in and purchase. Very good guy. I was pleased with the trade-in value and very pleased with the new Rav4 hybrid. Dealership is clean and employees are professional. All in all a good experience.

  • Great Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Great Experience on 12/29/2020

    Salesman was very friendly and accommodating he helped ensure we got into the vehicle that suited us best by asking what our must haves were and this narrowed down our search on the Rav4 to a specific trim. We test drove 3 of them and ended up going home with one. Would highly recommend Sam at Kolar.

    Just a great experience provided by our sales guy Mark Larson and business office guru Maria Mihalik to trade in our Ford and return to Toyota! We got our dream model and color within 48 hours and. The folks at Toyota were so supportive and focused. They went way above and beyond to get us exactly what we wanted.

  • 2004 Lincoln Town Car

    5 out of 5 starsby state94 on 10/16/2017

    Working with the team at Kolar Toyota on the purchase of a used 2004 Lincoln Town Car was enjoyable and convenient. Purchasing this vehicle from out of state, they provided me with timely and accurate information, photos, and pricing so we could close the deal quickly. The vehicle was exactly as described...no surprises or inaccurate information. They are a very professional and honest dealership, and I would refer them to others and would purchase another vehicle (new or used) from them in the future. Thanks again!!!
  • buying our new van was painless

    5 out of 5 starsby browneyedgirl on 10/08/2017

    We found our van, service was extremely friendly, we felt that the financing was exactly what we would have hoped for...and it was an easy decision to work with them. No games. Thanks to Todd (sales) and Maria (financing) to make this a very nice and painless experience. They went beyond what we expected.

  • New car review

    5 out of 5 starsby Liberty64 on 12/24/2015

    While looking for a new vehicle, I stopped at Kolar Toyota and was warmly greeted by Mark Larson. We discussed likes and needs, and ultimately settled on a Camry. When my wife and I came in to let her test drive one also, Neil Larson came to our aid, answering all of our questions in a very professional manner. Both father and son were helpful and really sealed the deal. Now we just need some alone time in our new Camry. Thank you gentlemen, we'll be back.

  • Kolar Toyota, a friendly dealer with a good inventory.

    5 out of 5 starsby Chief_94 on 11/28/2015

    We were "just looking", intending to replace our Rav4 in 2 or 3 months. We talked to Mark Larson (sales), had many questions which he patiently answered, talks up the vehicles, letting us know what is available as far as options go. We appreciated the no pressure approach. Very friendly place as we negotiated. Remember, we were just going to look at what was available but now we are interested. Made the deal, then to the financial office where we found another friendly person, talked about the options. We got in on a zero % interest that Toyota was offering at the time. By the time we were done with paperwork, the shop folks were gone for the day and the new rig and our old one were side by side inside where it is warm - we moved our stuff from one to the other. and when I started the engine as Mark was showing the bells and whistles, I saw the gas gauge go to the full mark. This is OK!! If you haven't figured it out yet, this day was very good. I am favorably impressed with the dealership and satisfied with the deal

  • Recently purchased a 2015 RAV 4 from Kolar

    5 out of 5 starsby HappywKolar on 10/08/2015

    I am so excited and happy about my new RAV 4 from Kolar. This is my second new vehicle from them (1st was a Toyota Corolla) and have experienced nothing but great service all around! My husband also has a Toyota Tundra from them as well. Shannon was absolutely pleasant to work with and did a great job! I've always really liked their service staff as well -in all the time I've been going there, they have been great with attitude and service together. We will definitely continue to do business with them in the future!
  • Purchase of Rav 4

    5 out of 5 starsby nancy_14 on 09/10/2015

    Recently purchased a Rav 4 from Kolar Toyota. Very happy with the exceptional service from Shannon Smith. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions. If she did not know the answer she looked it up. Could not be happier with Shannon. Would highly recommend her to others.
  • Kolar Toyota Scion

    5 out of 5 starsby extremepaddler on 07/14/2015

    My wife and I just purchased a brand new Toyota Prius 3 from Kolar Toyota Scion. We found the car that we were looking for. We asked so many questions....enough to drive our salesman away but he stuck in there and answered everything asked from him. Steve Fresher was the sales person working on his day off plus staying late to make sure we got our car that same day. Thanks Steve.
  • Kolar Toyota aims to please

    5 out of 5 starsby Spielmans on 06/29/2015

    When we decided to purchase our Highlander through salesman Al Mathison at Kolar, Al did a great job locating the vehicle we wanted in another part of the country, getting it to Duluth quickly and giving us a good price on our trade in. Lana and Damien were very helpful in getting us a good interest rate for our payment plan and quickly and efficiently completing our purchase paperwork. Al took the time to explain the vehicle features to us, and taught us how to use them. He went out of his way to set up my cell phone to sync with our new vehicle. We are very happy with every aspect of our purchase.
  • Best Dealership EVER

    5 out of 5 starsby loiselk on 05/01/2015

    I worked with Todd Abrahamson at Kolar and he was amazing! He wasn't pushy, listened to what i wanted, and made the whole car buying experience FUN!!! Everyone we talked to was very friendly and willing to help! They did everything they could to get me into the car that I wanted and did not try to convince me I needed anything else. They are fabulous and have made a long term customer out of me!
