Does all I want a car to do! Firm but comfortable ride,great gas mileage, can't wait to take in on a trip. Gas mileage still holding up, 40 MPG is what I can average without really trying. Running fine and I still like it very much and happy I purchased it! Sitting at 41 MPG in 1,100 miles of driving since last servicing with no mechanical problems so I am still liking the car very much and happy with my purchase!

Dangerous, Overpriced, and a Scam

All tho the vehicle is great during the day it lacks basic safety features from 10 years ago. Locks/window switches dont light up at night. The home interface isn't hands free friendly cause it requires one to move through the screen. The car is very poorly lite which makes it hard to use any of its features at night IE: glove has no light. Rear trunk has rear mounted safety net attachments. Whats worse about this model is that toyota is simply adding some basic features IE: Vent controls, rear camera, digital reversing mirror, and etc which is very basic compared to other competitors. Toyotas saving grace is the hybrid system however thats faulty cause the 2021 Hybrids have the same problem as the 2019 Hybrids the gas tanks dont fill up to a full 14.5 gallons but only to 11 gallons due too a faulty design which toyota has admitted too in letters to customers. (A class action lawsuit was filled against toyota over false advertising)

Not available at advertised price

2021 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE Premium 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Don't believe the price shown - you'll still have to negotiate both the price of the new car & your trade in, which in my case was offered at $1800 below the KBB trade-in value. Also, the Edmunds recommendation to buy the XLE Premium package was misguided - a couple of XSE features not included would have been worth having

Our Rav4 keeps getting check engine light, Bring vehicle to dealer. Feel weve made a huge mistake with this purchase.
