We have a 2013 Rav 4 Limited. It is perfect size for buzzing around town and for short trips as well. Easy to maintain. Very roomy inside. We often carry lots of stuff between our two houses plus two small dogs with plenty of space for all. The only thing missing is lumbar support for the passenger. Toyota universally doesn’t put it in because “all the stress is on the driver but it would be appreciated by passengers with bad backs. Toyota has a deaf ear to that. My wife principally uses it and loves it. Would buy another. Traded it for a 2019 Lexus NX primarily because it is the same size in 2021. Happily received $19,000 in trade. During the 8 years we had the Rav, we replaced the tires, brakes and shocks. Great investment and great quality.

Owned 2013 RAV4 since June 2013. Gave vehicle to my daughter last month (Feb 2017) - not because there was anything wrong with it or that I was no no longer satisfied. I retired and wanted a new vehicle. Would have gone with another RAV4 if the body style had changed more over the years. The dealership (the only one in Tallahassee Florida so you know who you are) offered the bests service of any I've worked with. Really wanted to stay with them but could not find a body style I like. "RAVen" had 53000 miles on her and provided great reliability. Only had to have routine maintenance. Still got good gas milage and it appears to be the average (26) for vehicles in that class. The head lights need some major improvements. To get more visibility at night, I used the fog lights when traveling on unlit streets. My last review is a resounding two (2) thumbs up!!!!

I used Edmunds (among other sites for comparison) to help me do research for a new car, before I went out and test drove them. I dislike going to car dealerships, but I can say with confidence that I have improved with how to deal with them. Plus I had done my own research beforehand, and knew what to look at and expect (as well as knowing when a dealer was lying to me). Well here is my review of this lovely car after having it for about 4 months now, and some improvements that I think should be made for the future.
Love So many things except...

Bought my 2013 limited the end of June. This is a great car in so many ways. I know it will be reliable and I am already seeing the savings from my 04 explorer. 28mpg combined and 32 hwy. The power memory seats are great as is the auto liftgate. I would not have bought this car if it still had the sideways gate. The stereo is not great. actually it is bad. Too much sound up front and it is very bright and "scratchy" I have played with the controls endlessly. This is annoying as I love to listen to all kinds of music as I drive.
Excellent Vehicle

Overall the car does a great job. I live in the North East and we get our share of snow. The car handles great in the snow. Sometimes we will get 6 to 8 inches overnight. I don't have time to clear my driveway in the morning and the car cuts right through the snow. The car is roomy, handles great, and is fun to drive. There are however some minor annoyances with the car. For example, I would like to push the key-fob lock and lock the doors before closing them however the car does not allow that. If you leave the hatch open while driving the car will continuously beep. Very annoying when you moving something and can't close the hatch. There's no lock for the glove compartment.
