Reliable car for a regular commuter.

This car has been perfect for my needs, spacious trunk and plenty of seating room. Never a problem and I trust that I’ll get to work and home safely every day.

Upgraded from a 2010 to a 2016

I loved my 2010!! 2016 differences -no power port in the hatch area -less cargo room and cubbies to store things -doesn’t do as well in the snow -has more power -overall handles better -the base model has some bells and whistles I love Toyota’s and have always been impressed! It has taken me a little bit to get use to the new blind spots. Overall love it!

Always a solid choice in a SUV

I’v owned several Toyota’s and their always dependable. The RAV4 gets decent gas mileage, is easy to get in and out of, and it’s great in snow! It comfortable to ride in and everything is laid out nicely. It’s a solid overall vehicle.

Another excellent Toyota vehicle

We are on our 3rd Sienna in 18 years and all have been extremely reliable and safe (2nd Sienna was totaled). When it came to buying a vehicle for one of my kids to inherit, we looked only at Toyotas. The RAV4 doesn't disappoint. The ride and handling are fantastic. It's easy to maneuver. My only complaints are that it doesn't have automatic headlights or power seats on the XLE.

Perfect everyday vehicle!

Roomy and comfortable interior. Stylish inside and out. Huge trunk with plenty of room for everything. Toyota?s safety feautures make this car reliable for 1 mile or 1,000 miles.

Love this car!

This car gives me piece of mind when I drive on winter roads in Wisconsin. It handles easily, is sporty and gas mileage is better than i expected.

It meets my requirements in a vehicle

I enjoy the features of the SUV, I had previously owned a 2010 RAV4, so I knew what to expect. This vehicle has a smoother ride and some electronic features that make it easier for the driver. The interior is well designed and stylish.

Corolla to Rav4

I've wanted to upgrade from my Corolla to something a little bigger/more reliable in winter weather and the Rav4 is perfect for my needs! It has all of the features that I could possibly want and the extra space is just what I needed.
