Used 2021 Toyota RAV4 Consumer Reviews
Very Good with some concerns
First of all, I don't own this vehicle, Its a rental that I've been using for a month after my car was totaled. I find a lot to like about this vehicle,.... the gas mileage is remarkable and I have averaged 35mpg in the month I have driven it with strict highway use being almost 40mpg!! I fine it to be a comfortable vehicle. It is rather quiet, a good ride, and the seats are good once you adjust them correctly for oneself. The engine has good power and generally is smooth. The steering, and overall handling are no less than good,... but here is where my concerns come into play. The lane control feature is much too sensitive and I found I was making constant steering corrections to counter what the computer thought. Turning it off made for much better steering. The active Cruise Control is also a problem as it overreaches and applies the brakes when there is absolutely no reason to do so. Keeping set to its lowest sensitivity setting helps,.. but it even activated itself when a passing vehicle would come a little too close!! The comments about engine noise are on the money. Engine performance is quite good,.. but the engine becomes a thrasher when pressed. A feature that I liked though is the warning lighting in the side mirrors letting one know that someone is in your blind spot and that and when backing up. Overall, I found this to be a darn good vehicle that I would consider buying.

Great car for the average person
It’s a great car. It’s good on gas and all it’s features are pretty up to date with competitors. The entune can be annoying at times but I use CarPlay so it doesn’t bother me. The engine is very loud, a common Toyota thing, so it feels pretty rugged when driving which can be good and bad. There is quite a bit of road noise but most cars have that. All around great reliable and safe car, as Toyota’s always are.

Battery keeps dying
I have a 2021 Rav 4 Hybrid with 6000 kilometers. The battery has died two times already when the weather is below minus 10C. This is going to become a big problem with me. I recommend you consider this before you buy one. I hope they fix this problem soon

Perfection
I love my 2021 Toyota XLE , it handles well , I used the snow traction button tonight due to unexpected snow accumulation, it had great traction ! I like the spaciousness and style of vehicle ! The radio sound is great . I like the fact it tells you how many miles are left to go until you need to fill car up !
