2022 Toyota RAV4 Adventure 4dr SUV Exterior

Good

The RAV4 is a pleasant SUV that rides smoothly, has a roomy interior that's easy to live with, and offers plenty of utility. It brakes and handles in a confident way, and it's fuel-efficient. The merely satisfactory engine and indifferent steering, however, prevent it from being a top choice for a small SUV.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Dan Frio

2/20/2026

The 2024 Toyota RAV4 will mark the sixth year of production for the current-generation RAV4. Since the model's introduction for 2019, Toyota has only tinkered at the margins by adding some new tech features and new trim levels. However, considering the RAV4's sales success, it's perhaps understandable that Toyota doesn't want to mess too much with success.

This trend continues for the 2024 and 2025 RAV4. However, the recently introduced 2026 model adopts a fully hybrid lineup, offering only conventional hybrid and plug-in hybrid engine options. The 2026 Camry follows suit, offering electrified engine options only.

The 2024 RAV4 competes with more recently redesigned rivals such as the Honda CR-V and Kia Sportage. Read our Expert Rating below for more detailed insights into how the RAV4 stacks up against the rest of the compact SUV class.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Good

7.7

out of 10

We drove the 2024 Toyota RAV4 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

7/10

How does the RAV4 drive? Unfortunately, the RAV4 doesn't impress here. The engine is willing around town, and passing and merging are drama-free. But you might notice the engine's modest power delivery if you're in a rush. In Edmunds' testing, our RAV4 Adventure test vehicle needed 9.1 seconds to cover 0-60 mph, slightly slower than the class average.

Another gripe we have is with the steering, which is vague at the center point and lacks appropriate feel and heft. As such, it's easy to misjudge your level of input. In better news, the RAV4's optional upgraded all-wheel-drive system includes rear-axle torque vectoring and more advanced traction control systems with selectable terrain settings and hill descent control. These systems, plus respectable ground clearance, give the RAV4 Adventure above-average off-road ability for a small SUV.

The RAV4's drivability is pretty strong. It's easy to make smooth, steady stops in traffic, and the brake pedal conveys a sense of reassuring effectiveness without being jumpy. Our 60-0 mph panic stop took 126 feet, a few feet longer than average, but reasonable.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the RAV4? The RAV4's suspension is tuned to strike a good balance between control and softness. The body doesn't bound or float when you drive over bumps, and small to moderate impacts are absorbed without much drama. As for the front seats, they are nicely sculpted and padded appropriately, but the seat bottoms begin to feel flat on longer drives. The passenger side's lack of adjustment can also make it difficult to find a comfortable position.

At highway speeds, the RAV4 is generally quiet. The exception is when you hit the gas for a burst of speed, at which point the engine sound gets rather coarse. We do like the climate system's performance. Air distribution is ideal, with forward vents that can be closed off completely and vents for the rear seat.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? The driving position, roominess, and ease of getting in and out are all good. But the RAV4 would score higher if the front passenger seat wasn't set so high or could be adjusted down on most trims. Only the RAV4 Limited gets a power-adjustable front passenger seat. The driver's seat and steering wheel have a good range of adjustment, but tall drivers might want a smidge more adjustability. Outward visibility is praiseworthy.

The control layout is intuitive with large, easy-to-read labeling. The audio system and climate system controls are islands unto themselves, and everything else is right where you expect it to be. The big rubberized climate control knobs are nice too. Our only gripe is that the touchscreen is too far away from the driver. The tuning knob, in particular, requires a reach to twist.

Buying Tips for the 2024 Toyota RAV4 for March

Looking to get your hands on a 2024 Toyota RAV4 and secure a great deal? Check out these expert tips for buying and negotiating!

The lowest displayed dealer price for a used RAV4 is $23,997, a great starting point for negotiating if you're in the market for a used model.

Was this information helpful?

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The RAV4's interface has a mix of touchscreen and fixed buttons, and both are easy to learn without consulting the owner's manual. But even though the RAV4 is relatively new, the touchscreen's graphics look dated. The sound system works well enough, but it's nothing special. You do get standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. It's a good thing too since Toyota's native Entune software remains clunky.

The standard suite of driver aids is impressive. It includes adaptive cruise control that works down to 0 mph, automatic emergency braking, drowsy driver detection, automatic high beams, lane keeping assistance and something called Line Tracing Assist, which is an active (but not hands-free) steering aid.

Storage

8/10

How’s the storage? The RAV4's cargo hold is nearly the biggest in its class. You get 37.5 cubic feet with the rear seats up and 69.8 cubic feet with them stowed. The RAV4 is also easy to load thanks to a low cargo floor. Up front, the cabin has numerous shelves and bins to handle assorted road-trip paraphernalia. If you're planning on towing, certain versions of the RAV4 can pull up to 3,500 pounds, which is above average for a small SUV.

Parents with young kids will appreciate the RAV4. It's easy to locate and connect safety seats to the lower car seat anchors. Likewise, tethering to the three upper anchors is straightforward. Forward-facing seats and boosters fit readily, but installing a rear-facing infant seat on the passenger side will likely require scooting the front seat up. The too-high front passenger seat is the issue.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

8.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the RAV4 will get 28-30 mpg in combined city/highway driving, depending on the powertrain and trim level. We drove an AWD Adventure carrying three people, equipment and luggage for more than 7,000 miles. And over a variety of road and weather conditions, we averaged 28.6 mpg. Our best tank was 32.3 mpg and the worst was 25.6 mpg.

Value

8/10

Is the RAV4 a good value? The RAV4 is well built inside, with nice layered materials and seams that are invisible because they're built into the styling. It has tactile touches such as rubberized grip surfaces on the interior door pulls and the radio and climate knobs. The RAV4's optional synthetic leather upholstery feels soft and pliable, and the stitching is tidy. Toyota's warranty coverage is average, but you do get a generous two years/25,000 miles of free scheduled maintenance.

Wildcard

7.5/10

Driving a RAV4 isn't a chore, but it's not particularly memorable either. It's at its best when you go with the Adventure or TRD Off-Road trim level. The advanced torque vectoring all-wheel-drive system, capable traction control system with multiple terrain settings, and styling that's a little more rugged help the RAV4 stand out a little more.

2024 Toyota RAV4 trim level differences

The 2024 Toyota RAV4 is offered in six trim levels: LE, XLE, XLE Premium, Adventure, TRD Off-Road and Limited. All come with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine (203 horsepower, 184 lb-ft of torque) paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard on most trim levels, with all-wheel drive optional. The Adventure and the TRD Off-Road come with an upgraded all-wheel-drive system that can enhance traction on loose and slippery surfaces. Standard feature highlights include:

Which RAV4 trim does Edmunds recommend?

We recommend the XLE Premium trim for the best value. It comes with a few worthwhile extras, such as a power liftgate and synthetic leather upholstery. If you plan to use your RAV4 for camping-style adventures, we might suggest the Adventure or TRD Off-Road trim for the traction and suspension enhancements.

2024 Toyota RAV4 XLE 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl 8A)

I traded a Subaru Forester on this 2024 RAV4 XLE gas model. The Subaru was great for about 5 years then began to have multiple expensive repairs so I decided to go back to a more basic Toyota as I approach retirement. I've had this one about a month so cannot comment on long term reliability but Toyotas typically are reliable. So far, I like this car. Is it exciting? No, but not … meant to be. I wanted a reliable, comfortable, spacious vehicle with the latest safety tech and Apple Car Play but not to go crazy with tech that can fail easily. This XLE has all the bells and whistles I need for a daily driver. The best thing about it so far is the powertrain. The 8-speed automatic transmission is the smoothest I have ever driven! It always seems to know what gear to be in and shifts almost imperceptibly. Toyota has so highly refined this powertrain, its hard to believe when you drive it how perfect it is. Even when driving at low speeds and in stop and go situations, its smooth and does not hunt or seem confused like transmissions often do these days. The engine is also smooth and has enough power in any situation I need. It does get a bit loud when pushed hard but it settles down once it gets back to cruising speed. This car has direct injection and port injection to avoid carbon build up so it switches between both - this is what causes the loud clattering when its in the direct injection mode. If you listen, most newer cars with direct injection are louder, its the nature of this type of engine. The ride is comfortable and smooth and the handling is predictable and well thought out. The wind and tire noise are a bit high at higher speeds but I think this is due to the factory Toyo "Back Country" tires which are not the quietest tires. So far, the tech works great. Controls are simple and easy to learn. The base 6 speaker stereo is good enough for most of us but if you're an audiophile, you will want the JBL upgrade. I mostly listen to podcasts and satellite radio so its good for me and it handles every day music from my iPhone well as long as you keep it a reasonable volume, it doesn't handle cranking it up high very well - it wasn't meant to. The cargo area is huge and can swallow up a surprising amount of cargo. The backseat has plenty of room for two adults and includes vents and phone chargers as well as an armrest - all nice touches. There are a couple of rattles in the interior when its cold but once its warmed up they go away. The doors seem a tad flimsy but close solidly. This model got good crash ratings so I am assuming its underpinnings are solid. So far I am happy but its new so the jury is out as to how it will hold up over time - Toyota sells these things all over the world and they are still hard to get here in my area, they sell so fast so there must be something good about them!! But, thank goodness I had a lot of equity in my Forester so I only have a small loan with generous equity from day one on this new Toyota so could easily unload it if it turns out not to be to my liking after a while! Advice, always plan to buy a car with good equity or cash down so you are not in an upside down situation - I did that when younger and its a horrible situation. Since then, I always plan to trade or use cash (or both) to be sure I have equity from the first day in a new car so I will never be "stuck" upside down in one. Plus, Toyota has some of the best resale and residual values in the industry so they are typically a good bet. I'll update as time goes on....so far so good!
