2015 Toyota RAV4 consumer reviews

Very comfortable with lots of room. Unbelievable gas mileage, can not wait to drive it in the snow plus we got a super deal. We are very happy With this vehicle.

I love my new car and the expedited "buying time" my dealer gave me. Everyone was respectful, listened to us, and answered all our questions. Excellent transaction.

This is my second Rav4. Purchased the XLE trim this time. Traded in a 2010 Limited with a V6. Overall I'm happy with the vehicle. The sale price and 0% financing made it a logical choice without breaking the bank. Only reason I traded the 2010 was because it was FWD and I needed AWD. Pros: Interior space with back seats down Eco, Normal and Sport mode choices and good fuel economy Excellent crash tests and safety results Relatively quiet ride, good visibility AWD in the snow Toyota quality and high residual value Cons: Weak lumbar support which can get uncomfortable on long drives Fabric armrests on doors can show dirt easily Small capacity fuel tank

My speedometer is reading 3 to 4 mph below actual speed according to radar and confirmed by the dealership. An average speed of 40 mph is a 7.5 to 10% discrepancy. The warranty is 36,000 miles. That equals to a loss of 2,700 to 4,000 miles of warranty. Actual warranty miles will be 32,000 to 33,300. Toyota refused to fix or replace the speedometer. I went through arbitration with the National Center for Dispute Settlement on July 8, 2015. I lost because there are no laws governing the accuracy of speedometers and that the 3 to 4 mph is within Toyota specifications. In other words, Toyota dictates the accuracy of its speedometers and can therefore reduce the mileage warranty without the buyer being aware that this is happening. In my view this is corrupt as I would not have bought the RAV4 if I had known that Toyota is actually selling me a lesser warranty. Otherwise the vehicle operates fine. However the screen is very touchy and has a habit of going bonkers. I recommend using the tip of a pencil or a similar device. It is definitely underpowered. Discard the navigation and have a separate GPS handy. Bluetooth doesn't always work. Great for hauling stuff. Again if I had known about the speedometer, I would have purchased an alternate brand as there are many out there.

I Love my new RAV4, and so do my Grandchildren who are 12 and 11. They like the room and the ease of getting their things out of thee back when we are just going a short distance. They think all the gadgets as they call them are COOL.

Styling and price beyond comparison in its category and class. Human functionality fluid and above average. I am a large man and find the vehicle to be tight to get in and out of. There also seems to be a great deal of engine and road noise. These 2 factors are minor when considering all amenitys, standard options, and overall drivability of the vehicle. Recommend the Forerunner for anyone over 6'2 or 270 lbs. It was a very good fit. I still greatly enjoy the rav4 though.

I traded in an older RAV for a 2015 LE model and I regret having done so. Incredibly the older RAV handled far better and the engine noise was quieter. The LE model doesn't come with fog lights and the black fillers make the vehicle look very tacky. The 2015 RAV acceleration is fair at best and the handling is far from special. Overall the 2015 Rav seems functional but functional is the kindest thing I can call it. It looks and drives like vehicle that should sell for several thousand dollars less. This is my third Toyota Rav and it's also my last one. I would gladly swap it for a competitor's model if I could. Pretty much any competitor. If you're determined to purchase a 2015 Rav, I strongly urge you to at least avoid the entry level LE model. It's somewhat cheaper and the slightly lower price is self evident in the vehicle itself.

Bought a new car and the sales experience was incredibly bad- we were basically held hostage and not allowed to leave to eat. After 5 hours and 2 mistakes with the paperwork, we left. The Bluetooth system is very poor and no one can hear me when I call using it on the car. I have had it back to Toyota 3 times and they indicate it is my problem - not the car. this is my 4th new Toyota and will likely be my last as they don't want to fix the problem and most people believe it is the microphone. Buying a new car should be fun and exciting but not this time. I recommend you look to other companies due to the problems with the software and if hands-free is required in your state, this system is horrible.

I trust the Toyota product very happy with my choice. The city here gets a lot of rain and i like the little higher vehicle. Also I am tall and more comfortable getting in and out of this size vehicle. I love the interior all the accessories are easily accessible and right where I am accustomed to. It has a back up camera which I have learned to love for safety. I enjoy the seats folding flat for carrying larger items. The back door makes loading groceries easier and not as much stretch and bending. Appreciate the help with knowing prices thanks.

The RAV4 has a great sound system and handles like a dream. I've been to Geargia two times in the safest and most comfortable SUV It handles great, sight line is excellent, smooth transition of the gears good on gas.
