Excellent aerodinamic, economic in gas

Good I recommend it. If you can afford a hybrid, get it. very good in gas, excellent in sport mode if you wanna get away fast. The entertainment system is not good, cheap, a pain to upgrade, and only navigation in full loaded.

RAV4 Limited

I love this vehicle though I am open-minded. I am on the lookout for a similar/different vehicle that is very reliable, comfortable and has economical gas consumption.

I had a RAV4 for 10 years. I love this one too

I had a 2006 RAV4 and then went to a Camry for the last year and a half. It was so low to the ground and just wasn't me. I love the room and comfort of the RAV4

Toyota Rav 4 2014

Bought my rav 4 brand new in 2014 jan.1 year later i noticed colour change in my moulding looking like burnt patches.Filled a claim with Toyota which they declined to replace and told me i will have to pay for it.Now we are in 2017 the patches have continue to increase.Six months ago my radio just stopped working again i went to Toyota and reported all they said was i need to replace a new radio.It keeps reloading then goes off again and again.I have noticed this is a common problem with toyota.I am a very dissatisfied and disappointed customer.Am still paying for car.

Radio Issues

My radio recently went out on my Toyota Rav 4. I haven't even owned the vehicle for three years. I am over on miles so the warranty is void. The dealership wants 1200 dollars to replace my existing radio with a refurbished radio. I have checked the internet and this seems to be a defect with the system.

2014 Red Toyota Rav4 LE

I bought my Toyota Rav4 as a certified Pre-Owned and it never disappointed me. The car is very smooth and definitely recommend to others.

It's not a Porsche

Awesome car for the money. If you are looking for top of the line quality leather, and you can't live without another cup holder, buy a Lexus. If you need speed, buy a Porsche. If you want style, and want to look like you know what you're spong, buy this Rav 4. And stop borrowing your grandmother's Buick!

Radio/Bluetooth

Have had my 2014 Toyota RAV 4 into the dealership 3 times with radio/bluetooth problems and it is still not fixed. The first time the radio was stuck on a station and I could not control volumn. Took it to dealership and they said it was a computer upgrade. Picked up the car and then the blue tooth was not working and constantly flashes connect/disconnect they said they fixed it again. Picked it up and still not working so took it back to dealer and they say they will replace the entire radio. Get it back with the new radio and still not working. Now they will not call me back to get it in again and it will be a week tomorrow since I picked it up and called them on 8/27/2016 saying it is still not working. Besides this problem they sold me a clear coat on the paint and scotch guard for inside and it seems like the paint chips even worse than any other car I've ever owned. The ride is not smooth and feels like you're in a truck when you go over bumps. I bought the car new in 2014 but I probably won't be hanging onto it for much longer.

Rav4 a good bet

I was shopping at end of year for 2013-2014 AWD vehicle with hatchback. I test drove the Subaru Outback , Toyota Rav4 Limited, Ford Escape SE and Titanius and Honda CRV touring. For the money and features the Toyota was the best buy. I will say the Honda was the smoothest ride and the Ford had the best engine performance. The Toyota was in-between these two for performance and comfort. The sport mode did give it better performance and the eco mode is nice for basic driving. Subaru Outback was not as good driving and I was surprised. Looking at the XLE and Limited in my view the Limited is worth it (~2-3K more on the used model). The limited has better seats and comfort. Also just more stand items included. Some have complained on the Bluetooth system. It works with my iphone 5 just fine and the dealer showed me a few tricks. The nav system is not the greatest, but not a big deal for me. since I like to use my phone anyway (included with limited so I have it). The interior lighting is a bit for for the switches but not a show stopper. Things I really liked were visibility, rear camera, blind spot monitoring, drivers seat adjustments., AWD, handling and overall power.

i hate this piece

I rented this car and I was NOT impressed. Everyone was saying the same thing.. S it has backseat recliners wow.. I would buy the Ford Escape or the X Trail or the CRV or something else I can't believe I rented this... I hate Toyota cars because they are extremely boring and timeless...Their parts are expensive and the don't last as long as you think
