Amazing features for the price, drives amazing.

This is a perfect compact SUV. You get the gas mileage and affordable fill ups of a car, with the benefits and space of an SUV. plenty of USB slots to charge devices, ease of linking my phone was great. Love that it "learned" my voice, and when my phone is linked will even read text messages out loud to me and I can respond. Love that it has a weather app so I can keep an eye on it if it's bad. The safety features like line departure and it automatically slowing you down if you're using cruise control and someone gets in front of you going really slow really give peace of mind driving with a young child. The car itself is incredibly comfortable, the heated seats do lumbar as well and makes travel with a bad back so much easier! They heat up great and fast, it was like driving with a built in heating pad. The center console is spacious, and my son's large convertible car seat easily fit (and was easy to install with the LATCH system). Perfect for a parent, perfect for anyone who spends a lot of time on the road. I can't say enough good things about it and have never been happier with a vehicle choice.

Stylish yet sporty looking

I did a lot of research on this vehicle and was not disappointed in my Toyota RAV 4 XLE. It has several safety features and creature comforts. I was pleased to purchase this for my college aged daughter and know it will not only last her a long time but will provide her with a safety oriented vehicle.

Best Car I've Owned

The car is beautiful to look at; the most comfortable drive I've experienced. I can see clearly all around me, and I love the backup camera! Winter is coming, and I'm not worried about driving in the snow and ice!

Comfy and a great ride

There is plenty of room in the front and back, but not so big that I feel I am driving a tank. The drivers seat is so comfy and feels like it is hugging my back.

Lifetime RAV4 owner

I have no reason to own a different car - this is my second one. The performance & sturdiness of this car is exceptional for the price I?ll always buy a RAV4. No doubts!!!! Driving the car sells itself.
