Switched from a 2017 fusion energi to the 2021 rav4 prime SE and felt like I was going backwards in time as far as tech is concerned, app is horrible no key pad entry. It has something wrong where it will lock the doors and you can not unlock them with out using the manual key about once a week I’ve found that the hatch will open and I have to crawl in to unlock the doors. Horrible noise on cold starts. Seats with out memory. Manual steering wheel adjustments. No heads up display. Wait listed for 6 months to get this and wish I would have held out for the xse. Now the pro’s: great ground clearance, average mpg so far is 65mpg with 40 mile commute and charging at both home and work. Off road capabilities are decent

This is our second RAV4 Hybrid but this one is a Prime. Very very quick and smooth. Luxury car ride and I’m talking frost heaves here. I can charge it at home and work and not use any gas all week.

Some great features but a lack of design thought

Update after 2 years: Two troublefree years. A lot of money saved charging at home. The kids want me to switch out our Volvo (which is great too) for a plug in 7 seater. Still wish Toyota improved certain interior design elements (learn from Honda) and made their vehicles a little more fun to drive. Update after 1 year: Absolutely love it. Filled gas twice in nearly 6k miles. Superb pickup, quiet operation and generally very comfortable. Sure I could do with additional amenities like power folding side mirrors etc but this car is truly worth the money. Original review 42 miles EV range plus 0-60 in less than 6 seconds are truly exceptional but the designers left a lot out and I will focus on those. A lot of body roll - this is a fast car but not a sporty one (steering is just numb and no fun at all). Storage is not as well designed as the CRV. Pricing is very high (40k+ for a base model with cloth seats and 50k fully loaded) which means the government incentive is basically going to Toyota and not the consumer. Subtract 7500 to get your true cost which is still overpriced. I got the fully loaded XSE but no parking sensors (other trims) on a car which most people will park in the garage and likely use in city driving with parallel parking - and it only comes with the fully loaded 50k option. Why? Finally some genius decided to put the charging port on the rear right rather than the front left. Most outlets are on the front when you pull into the garage and a driver now would have to walk around the car to the back right, unplug and walk back to the front left to get into the drivers seat. Repeat this in the evening. Super annoying if you do it on a daily basis in a cramped garage. Seat comfort is alright but the heated and cooled seats work well. Heated steering wheel is only for the partial steering wheel around 3 and 9. 6 and 12 area are not heated. Over 2k miles, I have been getting around 50 in summer and 42 in winter EV range which is great. Still haven’t filled gas but am at half tank with a few long trips where I appear to have averaged over 40 in hybrid mode. Overall a great value but Toyota should have made some options such as parking sensors, cooled seats etc options on lower trims, made the steering more engaging and given sports mode the full electric kick of a Tesla.

I picked up my RAV4 prime XSE in silver, just before gas prices started to skyrocket, it’s currently $4.35 for the gallon in my area.. I’m so glad that I bought it, And the week before, I just had my solar electricity on my house activated, so it’s costing me pennies to charge the vehicle. In pure EV mode I’m getting about 39 miles before I have to recharge, HV mode I’m averaging between 70 and 80 miles to the gallon. I can’t wait to take a road trip when the weather gets better, and have the flexibility of using EV, or hybrid mode in my travels. Way to go Toyota!

Best of Both Worlds

Finally located a 2022 Toyota RAV4 Prime SE and I couldn't be happier! It is the best of both worlds in that you plug it in and charge the traction battery and it will go an average of 44 miles in warm weather on 100% SOC around home. The HV mode gas/electric system has a 560 mile range (on the highway) for a total of approximately 600 miles. Drawbacks include no memory driver's seat and base level sound system which is not really that great.
