Toyota quality & reliability
I wanted a straight aspirated 4 cyl. Engine in a reliable car…. The Rav4 is the bomb.

Meh
I want to start this review by stating that I owned a 2018 Rav 4 LE which I loved for the most part. I loved the spacious cabin. I loved the comfy bucket seats in the back. I loved the comfy seats in the front. I traded in the for the (more luxurious model?) 2020 Rav 4 xle. The first thing that I noticed was how much less head room you have in the driver's seat, but figured that I would get used to it. A month later I rode in the passenger seat and I wondered how a tall person could even sit in the passenger seat due the positioning of the seat in the car, with no way to lower it. After taking it on a long trip, I realized that the old LE had MUCH more comfy seats. Also, my passengers in the back seat now have a much less luxurious ride in bench seat that sits straight up, is not adjustable and is hard as a rock! Also, for those that say this car is noisy. It has a very loud acceleration. The lane assist will pull you very hard for no reason at time. Now- the things that I do love about the 2020 Rav. The seats are vinyl and therefore very easy to wipe clean and keep nice looking. I also love the new LED screen. The whole front dash seems much nicer. The visibility is higher. The new exterior body design is AMAZING, (this is what sold me).Of course I also love the moonroof which comes standard in the 2020 xle. I like how the RAV 4 handles hills.I have noticed that the paint on this model is not road rashing the way that the 2018 RAV 4 was, but I went from a glossy black to a metallic silver, so I believe that this is likely the difference.

Tires
I purchase Toyota RAV4 2021 after a month my car wound not start! the battery died .right after that tires started losing pressure in all 4 tires to this day I am at the dealers putting air in my tires or at a gas station . And the dealership service keep saying it’s the weather . It’s not the weather obviously their is a problem with the tires for some reason Toyota service will not address issue , I need 4 new tires . I should not have to pay for tires . Toyota should be responsible , its been a problem since I purchase the car . I will never purchase a Toyota again. Unhappy customer!!
Great value
I brought the RAV4 for my wife and she loves it. I'm 6 ft 4 and there is enough legroom for me and the ride and feel of the car is everything we were expecting from Toyota. This is my third Toyota and their cars have always served and performed the way I expect a car to.

14 switches to control heat & ac = crazy!
2020 RAV 4 LIMITED; It has the following poor design faults. 1) The Limited model has 14 control switches for heating/cooling is a total waste, way too complex and the printing on the switches is too small to read. Difficult to use. 2) No storage space, can’t store anything else within the spare tire space either. Side pockets are basically useless for practical storage use. 3) Video rearview mirror has vibration while driving that makes this expensive feature totally worthless, it’s a gimmick, not at all practical. 4) Hard plastic located on sides of drivers seating position makes it uncomfortable on the sides of drivers knees. The door handles are too large and hit your knees, the driving area is very cramped.
