As expected

We have had our RAV4 for less than two weeks, but we already have noticed the features we desired most, including EASY ENTRY AND EXIT, Hybrid efficiency, many important safety features, wonderful comfort, and our expected Toyota reliability (+30 years of Toyota ownership). We considered other vehicles, many of which are greatly improved over their past performance but we based our purchase on our own lengthy experiences. I suspect we will appreciate our RAV4 even more once we discover and experience all of the features of this car.

All around pleasing car to see, drive and experien

Few complaints (bit noisy) but size, styling, comfort, performance with good for this non performance driving person. Gas mileage not bad for hybrid SUV, but could be better I suppose. Pricing was very good. Only wished I could have more to budget, would have bought this or a non hybrid.

Nice Drive

I've only driven the car about 400 miles, but am very happy with it. It's going to take a while to figure out all the features! My only complaint so far is that, with the car being as wide as it is, it's a little hair-raising to back out of a normal sized garage. I have found that it's easier with the driver's side mirror pulled in- maybe a motorized feature in another year?

Smooth, cool, quiet and good mpg.

This was a great deal at 28K loaded with all options we wanted. We looked for a month or more, sure there was a lot of cars in this price range. Were they as reliable, did they have any options at all. Most were bare minimum autos. And don't even think about sunroofs or 7'+ touch screens, etc. (sure, go ahead and think about it starting at 37K) Ya, I know, that's what I thought! Well there you go, my view on things. Thanks for reading. Steve in the 303

Every driver's needs put in one car

Of all the 2017 car models I have driven, this is the best car that have compined all the traits needed on a good car from perfomance n efficiency to spectacular looks. The car is loaded with smart new technology which also caters for the security system. It has plenty of room (both legroom and cargo). Compination of great comfort and sporty drive gives the car an outstanding perfomance. The new Arial View camera also makes the drive easy by noticing nearby objects, compined with steering assist and lane crossing warning. The enterior is also eye catching just as the external sporty look which makes the car flash. Fuel efficiency is totally also not bad at all. If you were to buy a car, I would totally recomend this one

fantastic car

The Rav4 Hybrid will be a gas saver around town. It is quiet and big enough for groceries. I like the auto lift for the tailgate.

Best Rav 4 yet!

this is my 3rd Rav4 and I have to say it is the best! Great gas mileage, they improved the outside noise level and handles like a dream. Worth the extra money.

I love my first Hybrid

The hybrid rav 4 is the 3rd rav 4 for me, but have mostly owned Toyotas since 1986. I love almost everything about it. the only thing I don't love about it, which has been a problem with all of the rav 4 is the technology for the personal assistant, or whatever they are calling it. I did the training with it multiple times and the voice recognition; when you give it a command, esp with directions, hardly ever understands the correct address. always quicker to put in manually. if they would work on that, then I think they will have created the perfect suv crossover. I am very happy with my purchase, I save about 100.00 a month in gas, compared to my other rav 4. all my rav 4's handle great in the northeast winters
