Used Toyota RAV4 Hybrid for Sale in Calumet City, IL

Great service my car was ready in a very short while the space is clean the staff are friendly and very helpful answered any questions I had and also almost made me trade in my car

Really enjoy driving this car. Good visibility, ride is smooth, electronics are terrific. Drivers seat back not adjustable, so long term driving not as comfortable as my Prius was. Ave 30 mpg hybrid

I recently did a trade-in and purchased a lexus es350. Quinton (sales) was great to work with and the entire team was fair and quick to get the deal done. all the used cars i looked at on their lot were in really good condition; they seem to hand pick and sell some quality used cars. i'll buy from them again in the future.

I have all the features of an higher end model in my hybrid. I love the handeling and comfort of this vehicle. The gas mileage I get out of this car is absolutely amazing. I will probably never go back to an all gas vehicle.

On a late Friday afternoon last October, we were northbound on Interstate 65 in my 2015 Acura TLX SH-AWD. We had just crossed over US 30 and were keeping up with the traffic which was running at about 70 mph. All of a sudden, three or four pieces of scaffolding fell off a construction vehicle that was in a lane to my left and perhaps 30 yards ahead! All the pieces were laying flat but moving diagonally in front of me toward the (right) shoulder. I immediately swerved drastically to the right. (Thank goodness for the SH-AWD!) I thought I had managed to avoid all the scaffolding, but in fact, one clipped the rear driver's side wheel, puncturing the sidewall, and gouging out a piece of the rim. Obviously, the tire went immediately flat. But if it had to happen, it couldn't have happened at a better place! It turns out that we were less than 5 miles from Muller Acura of Merrillville! A quick tow (provided by Acura) and we were there. Even though it was late Friday afternoon, we were greeted warmly by Amy of Customer Service and Michael, Assistant Manager of Service. I cannot adequately convey the expertise and the caring treatment lavished upon out-of-towners in distress dumped on their doorstep just before the weekend. We were pretty shook up by our near miss that could have easily been far more disastrous! Their genuine concern for us and the attention they afforded us were well above and beyond the call of duty! They told us we needed a new rim and, because SH-AWD models have special, color-coordinated rims, they didn't have one in stock. But then they took it upon themselves to take a tire and rim off a new car, exactly like ours, that they had on their lot so we could be on our way. They even took it upon themselves to contact State Farm and get the claim process started. I haven't even mentioned the amenities in Muller Acura. Waiting areas are especially spacious, clean, comfortable, well-stocked, and technologically up-to-date. Even the service bays were clean. You cannot go wrong dealing with Muller Acura of Merrillville!!! We highly recommend them!

The RAV4 is a very nice car to drive both highway and city. Great gas mileage around town and highway is nearly the same. Like the information available on the navigation screen. It has a very smooth running and quiet engine. Very nice compact SUV.

I received a lot of information. I was not shoved off or sent off. My Service lady was very polite and took her time answering my questions.

I bought it when it was a year outdated. But still overall performance is very satisfying. It’s a very smart car.I can rely on it.

I've had multiple Toyotas, and as I move around a lot, I've been to multiple dealerships. I've come to love the current dealership and its employees at Toyota of Merrillville. Danny B. took excellent care of me, and was patient with my questions. I found the whole experience easy, and the rest of the staff very accommodating. 10/10 would refer a friend.

Vehicle has been perfect for me. I am satisfied with the performance & comfort. Averaged 34.08 MPG over the 2 years. Safety systems all work correctly. Reliability has been great. Not a high tech guy, but everything works fine. Some competitors have better interiors, but it is OK. Has plenty of room & cargo space. Headlights could be a little stronger & liftgate could raise a little higher. Brakes are good. Gas to electric & back is seamless. With Toyota Care, I have had zero maintenance costs. Have signed up for Toyota Care Plus at a cost of $329 which is a no-brainer for another 2 years as it also covers a new air filter & cabin air filter at 30,000 miles.

Wow, this team couldn't make buying my New Tundra any easier and living up to what was said from my initial contact with their internet team. Jessica and Jackie put up with all the questions I had to confirm the options and price of the truck and then Leo living up to their promise when I arrived. I just dealt with Schaumburg Toyota who promised the world just to get me to come in and then tried to add an additional $6000+ to their written quote with the expectation I would be fine with. Their listed internet price was even lower than they were now offering. Couldn't be happier that I got up and left. So when I was speaking with Jessica and Jackie they ensured me they were being honest with the price of the truck. I came into Continental with my doubts but was quickly put at ease meeting with Leo and soon I was a owner of a New 2018 Toyota Tundra. The entire experience was a home run, and I will be coming back when my wife is ready for a new Rav4. Thanks again!!!!!!

Just want to send out a thanks to Zoran Knezevic for his outstanding work and facilitating the job of me obtaininng my new Chevy Silverado 2017. Zoran demonstrated that he is passionate about his job and was there every step of the way making the process simple and fast. Will definiteley ask for Zoran again in the future!

A great design - comfortable and roomy (believe it or not) and with all the bells and whistles you could want. The safety features are really cool - parking assist, blind spot monitoring, cameras all around!

November 22, 2018: Here is a description of my experiences at Lake Shore Toyota, with sales consultant Mike Pietrzak and General Manager Kim Gillette, resulting in my purchase of an SUV yesterday. (1) I was informed by Mike that nobody at the dealership had any incentive to mislead customers, because they are not compensated by commission. He also informed me that the prices shown on the vehicles are non-negotiable. (2) He listened to what I said I needed, and he suggested the RAV4. (3) I drove the RAV4 and said that I would buy it. (4) Mike prepared a pricing form showing me the list price, as well as Toyota incentives and dealer incentives, and the sales tax. There was no discussion of trade-in value for my car because I did not indicate that I would trade it. There was also no discussion of add-ons like extended warranties, fabric protection, etc. (5) when I stated that the price was acceptable, the General Manager, Kim Gillette, went to her office to explore financing options. Fifteen minutes later, she came back with a printed document showing the various possible options and told me which she thought was best. Being equipped with an MBA, I immediately saw that her suggestion was correct. (6) I decided to trade my car. Kim drove it, and offered me $2000 for my 11-year-old, oil-burning Honda. I accepted the offer. This trade-in value was factored into the price of the RAV4. (7) I made a small deposit and went home to unlock my credit report. (7) Within 3 hours of my unlocking my credit report, Kim had obtained financing from Teachers Credit Union at a lower monthly payment than she had originally estimated. Kim also suggested that I come in after 5:00PM, to minimize waiting. (8) I showed up at the dealership at 5:10 PM. Mike had already prepared all the documentation. At this time, he reviewed with me the various add-on options; I declined then all, and he did not try to change my mind. I signed the documentation. (9) Mike took me out to the RAV4 and showed me how to use all of its numerous features. (10) I left at 6:50 PM, with a new RAV4, for a final cost of $25,068 (including tax). NOTE: The entire process was transparent. I was provided documents I could take home to study or take to another dealer for comparison. I was free to try to find better financing. At no time was I presented with one ounce of BS. The people at Lake Shore Toyota will not try to manipulate you, lie to you, or take advantage of you. This has been a new experience for me. Needless to say, this is where I will get my cars from now on. Plus, I love my RAV4.

The RAV4 fits my family of 4 very well. My 6'2" wife has no problems driving or riding in the front seats. The gas mileage I'm getting in it is around 31.5 mpg, in a 60/40 mix of highway (mainly rush hour, stop and go) and city driving. It rides well, has great safety features, and my 6 and 3 year old boys always want to ride in the new car. The storage in the car is great, and we can easily go on long distance trips in it.

I’ve had my car serviced here several times and like the professionalism, knowledge of the staff and management and the cleanliness of the facility. They also send coupons in the mail. I’ve moved out of the area and there’s another dealer closer to my new home but I started coming back to Oakbrook Toyota because the service is much better.

I am not a big fan of the exterior styling, but I love the inside. The seats are some of the most comfortable I've experienced. The layout inside is very well designed. The interior noise is a little higher than I had hoped, but not intolerable. I wanted a mid sized SUV that felt more solid than the Honda HRV that I traded that also gets in the upper 30's for gas mileage. The Rav feels very solid on the road. It drives great. The mileage I'm getting so far falls well short of expectation. With a combination of in town and highway driving, I got just over 34 mpg on my first full tank. In town, I'm a reasonable, calm driver. On the highway, I'm driving a steady 75 mph. I did not expect to get 40 mpg. My expectation was 36-37. I'm not sure if mileage improves as the car breaks in?

I came in for basic oil change service and Brian took care of me. Brian was friendly and knowledgeable. They weren't pushy with the recommended repairs, they just made a list that I can take care of when I have the time.

This car meets all my expectations. It is all wheel drive, gets very good gas mileage, has good trunk space in the back (especially with back seats folded down), excellent driver assist safety features and exceptional quality. When combined with the integrity of the dealership I am leasing this vehicle from (Gale Toyota of Enfield, CT) I am pleased with my overall experience.

This is my second time working with Napelton's. Each experience has been better then the last. Is buying a car a quick experience? No, it's not. But it doesn't have to be a bad one either. Each person I dealt with was extremely helpful in helping me replace my former Jeep that was lost in an unfortunate accident. I was basically dead set on buying a Jeep Renegade. Why? I thought they looked good, got good gas mileage, and it was well within my comfortable price range. Would I have liked a bigger car? Sure, but I didn't think I could afford it. WRONG! I walked into Napeltons as was great by Edgar who promptly took me to his office to start mapping out what I wanted on my car. He then pulled up the inventory and started printing off cars that they had in stock that met my criteria. He also then started pricing rebates that were available on the cars and told me that with what I was looking for, I could likely get a Cherokee with the same features of a Renegade for the same price, AND it would be a 2016 (they only had 2015 Renegades in stock). I decided I still wanted to drive them both to get a feel for the cars. I was then introduced to Tony Gandara, who took me out in the freezing cold to dig out cars for me to test drive. We drove a Renegade and I liked it! Smooth ride, great handling but a little small and kinda tight inside for me. We then went and tried the Cherokee. Smooth ride, great handling, extremely comfortable with some awesome features. I fell in love. I decided on a color and the process took off quickly. While waiting I had the pleasure of chatting with the dealership President Rob. He's a great guy that genuinely wants each of his customers to be happy. He asked what I was buying and what I liked about it and how I came about the decision. With no BS, he assured me I was making a good choice and would be happy. (He told me this last time I bought a Patriot from them - and I was extremely happy.) Once we got the numbers, I was shocked at how low they were able to get my payment, they went above and beyond to ensure I got all the rebates that I was entitled to, and even took the time to go into great detail the benefits of each of those warranties they sell. Whether or not you believe in them, or would want to buy them - they will give you as much detail as you ask for - they aren't trying to hide anything. Edgar was a great help in putting together the pricing. Then, once again, I got brought into the finance room where I got to sit down with Chris again. Chris is also a no-nonsense guy when it comes to questions. You ask it, he'll answer it pretty straight forward. You can tell he enjoys what he does, and knows what he is doing because he is very quick to get everything ready, but will stop and go back at anytime if you have questions, or want him to show you numbers. I appreciate that he takes the time to explain things when I have questions, it makes you feel more confident about your purchase. The key to working with car dealerships is simple. Have an idea what you want, be direct with them and don't be afraid to say no. If you are someone who feels compelled to say yes, even if it is for things that you don't want, that's where you will leave dissatisfied. Oh, and most importantly, don't have an attitude. These are people just like you and me who are trying to make a living. They will go above and beyond to help you with what you need and want - they don't want you to come back unhappy. I would recommend Rob and his team to anyone. They are top of the line.

One of the best off over 50 new cars I have owned. Plenty of power and very economical. Safety features are outstanding. I would highly recommend this car if I was buying a used car.

For the past 15 years, your service staff has solved my problems and maintained my vehicle with courtesy and responsibility. Because they have never taken advantage of obvious opportunities to 'up-sell' me on a service visit (e.g. "Maybe I need brake work" "We checked; and no you don't") I tend to trust their recommendations when they DO make them. They are competent, reassuring, and realistic about estimating the time service will require. This last visit was one of those diagnostic mysteries - the dashboard brake warning was on, and yet it was pretty clear to me even when I brought it in that the lights were functioning. It took a while but they found the single bulb among multitudes that needed replacing. Job done; car washed; $33. Off and running.

The car meets all my needs and also has plenty of leg room. This vechicle is a hybrid which saves a lot of money on gas. The gas mileage is fantastic!

MARQUES PINKSTON is a wonderful salesman. I don't usually like any car salesman, but he was very nice & put me completely at ease. I wasn't able to purchase what I wanted at this time, but when I am in a position to make the purchase, I will be back to see Marques! Thanks!

I bougth a car form this place,and the sales parson is helpful,and the finance directer Mr Larry Sherman is nice guy. I will recommend to my family,friend,and coworkers too.

I feel, and hope I'm right, that my car is serviced as it should be with efficiency and knowledge about my vehicle and honesty. I will and would know if I'm being hood winked. The service people know me because I've been taking my auto there for years even though I know an independent service garage that is very knowledgeable especially with Toyotas and other Japanese manufactured cars.....if they're still manufactured there. But the owner of the shop is Japanese American and si extremely good so I have an alternate to go to if I ever need to or feel that I'm not being taken are of properly at Northside.

My 2018 RAV4 SE Hybrid Toyota was the least expensive "luxury feeling" SUV I could afford, and it's the only hybrid model in it's class. The interior is a bit cramped due to the battery, but overall there is enough space for 4 people to comfortably sit in. I haven't had any complaints from my front seat passengers. The "trunk" isn't as spacious as non-hybrids. A bicycle will fit in with a seat down and the front wheel off. The interior feels nicely put together. Some of the buttons are difficult to access, like the seat heaters. This 2018 has the same Entune system as other older models, it's not that well thought out, especially the nav unit, which doesn't anyways get you where you want to go. The premium stereo system sounds good. The air conditioner works ridiculously so much better than in the LE model I had previously, as does the phone (both the ac and the phone didn't have enough "bars" to blow out cool air, or hear phone conversations). Instead of leather, "leatherette" is used for the seating ("vegan" friendly, even Tesla is using this material now)- it seems to clean up well. Everything is power operated, including the hatch which is slow to open, I wish there was a pop up button in the car to open the hatch when I don't want to use the power lift. Cup holders aren't conveniently placed, and there aren't enough of them. More phone charging ability would also be welcomed. The driver's seat is very comfortable. It's easy to adjust the seat and steering wheel for optimal driving, for your height. The car isn't as zippy as the non-hybrid due to the weight of the battery, going up steep hills it's slow to reach full acceleration, and sounds like it's "lugging" it on the hills. The heaviness does make it feel stable on the freeway and while cornering. The RAV4 sits up higher off the ground which gives a secure feeling on the freeway. As with all trim levels of RAV4's, it has Toyota's standard safety features. On my SE there is true blind spot monitoring. So many other SUVs in this class make you pay extra for safety features that come standard on the RAV4, I'm very appreciative that Toyota doesn't charge more for these features (multiple air bags, lane departure warnings, sudden stopping of the car when a rear end accident is imminent, to name a few). Even with just 700 miles on the car, the car is getting an average of 30-32 mpg, a real improvement over the non-hybrids. Overall, the car is comfortable, easy to drive, looks good, and with care should last hopefully for many thousands of miles. For the money the RAV4 SE Hybrid was the most I could afford with the features I was looking for. I waited until the price came down as the 2019 RAV4's came in. The price was better and the dealer incentives available helped. All in all, I'm satisfied with the purchase. I think the gas savings and Toyota's well known reliability will make up for any negatives. The warranty seems pretty straightforward, the battery is under warranty for almost 100,000 miles. The RAV4 warranties aren't as good as the Kia or Hyundai models, but I feel Toyotas can last a long time with care. My dealer offers other incentives if you have maintenance done at their dealership, I'll take advantage of those offers. All in all I'm happy with my 2018 RAV4 SE. I'm happy with all the extra features that came with the SE model; power seats, windows, safety features, alloy wheels, AWD, etc. Those features make it a vehicle I plan on keeping for the long term. With Toyota's known reliability, if I take good care of the vehicle, it should last many thousands of miles. I'm satisfied.

Peter and Bill in the service department. Peter was very helpful by helping me get into a loaner vehicle while my 2003 Corolla was going through some major repairs.

I’ve only had this vehicle for about a week and so far it’s been perfect, fuel economy and sleek look are just what I was looking for.

I have been getting my car serviced @ Pugi for quite some time & even though I didn't purchase my vehicle from them, they still treat me like family!

This is a limited; it has it all: Moon roof, heated seats, back up & 360 cameras, power everything, good mileage, guts, looks, and very safe.

This is the first time in my life that I have shopped for a car and didn't feel like I needed to take a shower after the experience.

This vehicle has met my vehicles needs are far as comfort, stability and needs. This vehicle is great on gas and a full tank last me one week and I do drive a lot of miles. Very reliable vehicle for the whole entire family.

I just recently bought my first used car (2012 Toyota RAV4) and cannot speak more highly of the experience I had with Melissa and Elmhurst Toyota! I pretty much knew what I was looking for and had scheduled test drives of two different RAV4s at Elmhurst Toyota, as well as another dealership down the street. I went to the other dealership first, and dealt with a different salesman than the one I had been communicating with through email AND had a scheduled appointment with that morning. I was told everyone "worked as a team" and sat down with a salesman that had no idea what I was in to test drive. After 5 minutes, I was informed that the car I was interested in had been sold the day before--no one had bothered to inform me despite my confirming my 10AM appointment at 6PM the night before. Fast forward to my experience with Melissa and Elmhurst Toyota - the dealership was clearly really busy but Melissa met me promptly upon my arrival at our designated appointment time. She was still wrapping up with another client but set me up for my test drive. Although I did wait to "talk numbers" for ~20 minutes after returning from the test drive, Melissa was super apologetic and the dealership itself has a lot of comfortable space in which to wait so it did not bother me. Trade in was valued quickly and there were no surprises with the price of the RAV4 - we had negotiated on price over email which ended up being much lower than the sticker price on the vehicle (there was no need to reminder her of the lower price we discussed). I was paying cash but needed a few days to move money from savings and Melissa was very clear in communicating my options for taking the car home that day versus returning to the dealership a few days later. I opted to pick up the car later to avoid 2 different contracts and it was ready for me when I got to the dealership so I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Given my positive experience with Elmhurst Toyota, I'm actually considering getting my car serviced at this dealership despite living in Chicago.

Car looks and runs great. Money saver with the hybrid and very quick. The except is the horrible Scout GPS. No maps, nothing but voice, if you can get it to work at all. No Apple Play, so you’re basically stuck with aftermarket GPS like Waze... and I like Waze. Toyota put Apple Play in the 2019.., no help for the 2018

Great job in keeping me informed about the process and progress of repair to my 1997 corolla. Patrick went the extra distance to ensure that my car received the best service possible in the least amount of time. Although one part needed to complete the repair was hard to come by, Patrick persisted until the right part was found and installed.

MEETS ALL NEEDS OF THE FAMILY, GREAT ON GAS, DRIVES LIKE A CADALIAC, AFFORDABLE MONTHLY PAYMENT - RECOMMEND MAURICE BAHAMONDES, VERY COMFORTABLE, LOVE ALL THE EXTRAX THAT COME WITH THE RAVE4

Shakeel Brown was simply amazing and was able to answer all of my questions. Phenomenal customer service all around. I will definitely be referring my friends and family to Grossinger Toyota for all future business.

I have 17,000 miles on my 2017 Limited Hybrid. Car has been problem-free and gets an average of 32.8 mpg in warmer weather, mid to high 20s in cold weather. The hybrid system adds power in addition to saving gas, so acceleration is there when you need it. The brakes are good, but not as strong as other hybrids I've driven. Car drives very smoothy, but there is no feeling of attachment to the experience - very appliance like and boring. Visibility leaves a lot to be desired with terrible rear visibility and forward visibility hampered by thick windshield pillars that are far forward, interfering with the view of other cars and pedestrians at right angles at intersections. If it weren't for the rear camera and parking sensors, backing up would be a real adventure, hence the dents you see on the backs of so many RAV4s (it doesn't help the rear bumper is useless). All the safety tech works well. The pedestrian detection already warned me of a person about to walk behind me as I was about to reverse. Supposedly it has auto-braking, but Toyota doesn't make it clear. It may or may not help brake if needed. It will beep at you though!!! The first few months of owning, the driver's seat was ok... but has gotten more and more uncomfortable. An hours drive and I am in pain. I limp when getting out of the car. I keep a gel cushion now. I am not a huge or heavy person at all. The seat has a weird mix of support that is too soft in the middle and too hard and narrow at the hips. Maybe only designed for tiny people. Also, even though it is an 8-way power seat, it acts more like a 6-way as you raise it. The passenger side has no height control and is a bit low. The telescoping steering wheel barely telescopes... still too far away for long legged drivers. Cargo area is good, but the hump from the battery is annoying (the 2019 will be flat). The split rear seat is designed for Japan, not USA. The large part should be behind the passenger side!!!! The power tailgate is very slow and sometimes doesn't work the first try. I can open and close a tailgate 5 times in the amount of time it takes for this thing to work. And turning it off, it's still very hard to open. The tech is good, but could be better. Voice command is a joke. "She" can't understand almost anything you say, unlike Siri. The steering wheel controls for calling work well... but you can't scroll through phone numbers using them! You have to still press your finger on a tiny number on the screen... makes no sense. There is only two choices for NAV screen brightness; super bright or black at night... it won't let you dim to medium at night. Wipers work well, with many speed choices. Radio sound is good, but took some time to get used to the brassy sound and you need to keep most of the sound in the rear speakers. Only one window switch is lit at night, the door lock and other switches are a guessing game. There are no puddle lamps in the door bottoms. I can understand this cost-cutting on the cheapest trim, but not on the Limited or Premium, with sticker price pushing $40,000. Car rides well.... but the 18 inch wheels make you feel the small bumps, especially if you add a few more psi to the tires to get better economy. Would I buy this car again? Not sure! Maybe not. Not with these seats and not for what I paid!!!
