Great AWD small SUV

We wanted an AWD, small SUV with decent gas mileage and great reliability. This car checks all the boxes! We owned a Subaru Forrester in the past; it was good but not quite as reliable.

Best alround car on the market

After a year and several thousand miles, It is time for a review so others can use as a reference. The gas mileage is as advertised. Average about 26m/gal (mostly highway). City is about 21. Some people complaint about the transmission and the car's power, but it is not true. They must learn how to use eco mode and sport mode to bring out the car true performance (play with shift paddle some time also). With my personal experience, I use eco mode on highway and sport mode on back road or city road. The car has good surrounding view and I love the rear view camera. The cargo area is almost as big as my 1998 grand Cherokee and the rear seats could be folded real flat. The RAV-4 still running great without any issue. I just change oil and filter once a year. I did not bring the car back to the local dealer for free oil changes and checkup. I have no trust for anyone but me taking care of any vehicle I own and operate. I still make people mad at traffic lights because they did not believe the RAV-4 could be so responsive at start (using the sport mode. I also make people mad with my Prius using the Power mode.)

Love all the safety options

I love the way this vehicle handles. It is very cost efficient with great fuel mileage. Love the roominess in the inside for a small SUV.

So far so good

I haven't owned the car long, but it has been a good car so far. I would recommend it to people looking for a good midsize vehicle.

Couldn't be happier with my choice

This car fits all of my needs. The back seat offers great leg room suitable for my in-laws who are over 6ft tall. The dual-zone climate control is a great feature that is included in the XLE. Backup cameras come standard and are super helpful for safety and parallel parking. I feel so safe in this vehicle and have no worries when my wife drives to work. The seats can wear you down a little bit on road trips over 3 hours long. However, once you find the way you like the seat you won't have a problem; it took me one trip to figure out just how to adjust the seat to make it fit my needs perfectly. You won't regret buying this vehicle. Another plus is that you can get fuel economy of 30+ mpg on highway driving!

Rideshare customers love this vehicle

As a senior citizen, this vehicle and all the items I was looking for in a new car including rear camera, side mirror turn signal's, plenty of cupholders, fog lamps. Unfortunately, hybrid technology was not available in the RAV 4 in 2014. Rideshare customers love the roominess and comfort of the vehicle, and so do I.
