Easy to drive

The Rav4 is easy to drive and handles well. The turning radius is the smallest I have ever experienced. The wheel lock button should be useful for getting out of snow or ice or mud. The interior has lots of space when the seats fold down. Highly recommended.

IT IS OKAY IF YOU ARE BYE YOURSELF

OKAY. at the time i needed something to go back and forth to GA it serve it purposed for what I need it for. If you are a big person it is not a good truck to have to small for anyone over 5 ft. other wise it is a good truck. good on gas.

Toyota Rav4, sensible and reliable

Bought my 2012 Rav4 new in 2012. 46k miles later, no repairs other than brakes and tires. Reliable , comfortable, love my heated seats. Wish the engine and road noise weren't so loud.

Great Toyota product

I love my Rav4 and plan to be buying a new one in the next year or so very likely! Toyota has been the most reliable trouble free vehicles I have ever owned and would not think of switching brands!

Best car yet.

Purchased my Rav4 through Prestige Toyota of Kingston. Joseph Rodelli has the patience of a saint! Took me a while to make up my mind, but I'm definitely pleased with my purchase.

2012 Toyota RAV4

The Toyota RAV4 is a great car. It's reliable, safe, spacious, sleek, and has all the basic features you would want your car to have. I've never had an issue with my car, I trust it completely. The seats aren't as comfortable as some other cars, but that's not too big of a deal to me. I'd recommend this car to anyone looking for a safe, gas efficient car.

We love our used RAV4!

It's beautiful, comfortable, well-designed, efficient, a dream to drive, and it was such a great deal from Toyota On The Park in Toronto. Great dealership and repair place. We are 100% happy. Love it!

Nice small car

You don't need the v 6. 3 row seat is a waist of money.Not comfortable to drive if over six foot.Weak a.c.. Nice car and runs good but get a loaded limited..
