I have had no stability problems with my 2021 Rav4. Did the people that have consider the smoothness of the road they were on? I have had mine up to 70 plus mph with no problems. It rides well better than the 2011 i drove for 10 years. I hope this one gives me the service that 2011 did. These are fine cars and there are people that would complain even if you gave them a million dollars. Take all reviews with a grain of salt even this one if you must.

Small cramped interior, loose steering , small seats, rides a bit stiff. Door handle awkward. Poor interior layout and I'm not usually picky. Head hits roof on way into seat I'm only 5'8

I just drove a rented RAV4 3000 miles and I am exhausted. After reading other reviews I understand why. It is the automated lane assist that is on with cruise. Many times as the white line peeled off to the right for an exit it felt like the tires were grabbing a tar line. The first couple if times it took my breath away. At 70 MPH in the rain it was spooky. No thanks Toyota, I'll drive the car myself.
Very Overrated

Stay clear of the entry models. Tire noise is terribly loud (while there isn't much wind noise, the sound of the tires rolling is overpowering). The ride is quite harsh and the suspension doesn't do a good job of soaking up bumps. The seating position is also not good. You feel like you're almost touching the ground and the dashboard is very high (not ideal for shorter drivers, I am not short and it was bothersome for me). For upper trim levels, the interiors are much better in terms of features and fit and finish, but the ride quality and poor seating position still exists. Toyota needs to step up their game. Sure, these are reliable, but that's all the Rav has going for it. There are so many vehicles that are competing in this class and many of them ride better and are feel more premium (Nissan, Mazda, Honda and Hyundai just to name a few). I would definitely check out the competing vehicles in this class before choosing a Rav 4.

'21 RAV4 base line is hum drum. Whiny engine (underpowered) and aside from std safety items, isn't nicely equipped. The Limited trim, on the other hand is nicely equipped but way too expensive. However, balancing options and staying out of the luxury brands, the Limited is a good balance on options and price. Very well equipped (a/c vented front seats, pano moonroof, 360 birds eye camera system,...) Limited priced at $36K ($4k under MSRP). Gas mileage is a joke! RAV4 window sticker says 33mpg on the highway... we average 22-24mpg... Honda CRV does get 29-31... As for driving experience, the struts on RAV4 is stiffer than CRV, but all round driving is sub par to CRV. Lane assist operates sometimes well, but on the honda, works great. Auto tailgate works sometimes... adaptive cruise sometimes... Yes, all round the Honda wins... but if you drive a lot and really need vented front seats, the RAV4 is the only model with it. RDX ASPEC and Advanced ($47K) has it...
