Used 2015 Toyota RAV4 Consumer Reviews
72K Miles and I still love this vehicle!
In 2017 I was looking at purchasing either a used CR-V or RAV4, so I was looking at the used car sections. I was lucky enough to find my RAV4 in the exact color combo (blizzard pearl with tan interior) on the Toyota lot. It had 25K miles on it and drove very well. Now it has just over 72K miles and hasn't had any major issues, just routine maintenance (oil changes, battery replacement, etc.) I have taken numerous vacations with this SUV and it held up well to driving in the Blue Ridge Mountains and another trip to Michigan and Canada. This SUV is very comfortable and has all the bells and whistles I wanted. The Blind Spot Monitoring and Lane Departure Warning are great safety features. The only thing my RAV4 doesn't have is a heated steering wheel, but you have to purchase more expensive luxury vehicles to get that feature. The heated front seats work great during the mild winters where I live. Now that I've owned this SUV for six years, I look at other vehicles I might want to buy, but I love my RAV4 so much, I can't find anything I like that is better.

Great ride 7 years, 35000 miles in
Just wanted to share that the car is still going strong in 2022. I find the regular driving mode more ecological than Eco for some reason (25mpg combined in Los Angeles). Only things to be aware of are regular replacements like break pads. No major issues otherwise.

Reliable, spacious and fuel-efficient
We bought our 2015 XLE FWD used in Jan 2018. It had 65k miles on it and was well maintained. Spacious: Five adults can sit comfortably in this car and the trunk too is very big, with a low loading lip. In fact, you can even use it as a bench to sit on when picnicking. The rear seats fold flat so that you can carry longer cargo. It looks like the later gen model has less passenger and cargo space. Gas mileage: In city driving, with a few minutes of idling thrown in (to run AC), I get 20-22 mpg. On the highways when I do a constant 75-85 mph, I get 28-31 mpg. Performance: Good that Toyota hasn't moved to turbocharged engines for their best sellers in the US. Big, simple, naturally-aspirated engines are my favorite for their low-end torque. This vehicle has no problem accelerating and keeping up with 90mph cars on I-5. Maintenance: No issues besides yearly oil changes and tire rotations done by a neighborhood family-owned mechanic. The first owner bought ToyotaCare. So, it was very well taken care of, at dealership shops. The only unexpected thing I got done was the rear shocks, as one of them started leaking, leading to bouncy ride. The parts too were super cheap, $70 for a set of two.
