Used Toyota RAV4 Hybrid for Sale in Santa Monica, CA

Went to Santa Monica Toyota for my second lease. Looked for (and found) a Prius. Ray was very low pressure but answered all my questions and worked with me on the deal. These guys always seem fair, and they don't waste your time. Highly recommend.

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

First of all, I have to point out that I have been a long-time customer of Santa Monica Toyota, having bought six or seven cars there since 2004. Thanks to Aaron Desouza, this was the least stressful transaction I have ever had at your dealership. Aaron was helpful, patient, clear, and attentive in every way. He was generous with his time and showed genuine concern when I did not arrive at the agreed time to pick up my car. He was also generous with gasoline, sending me on my way with a full tank, quite unlike the salesperson who sold me a Corolla in 2013 and let me drive it away with an almost empty tank. I have to add that Kevin Lee, the Finance Manager, was extremely pleasant. This is a dealership of which Toyota can be proud.

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.

We had a wonderful experience again at Audi of Beverly Hills. We are going on a trip and at the last moment wanted to have our car serviced, They fit us in. Since they had already committed their loaner cars they had one of their staff drive us home (it was only about a mile). They were able to complete the job on that day. Our service manager, Ken Kritzer, kept us informed of the progress, and called in the afternoon to say that the only extra thing he suggested was to have the tires rotated and the car would be finished by 5:00 PM. We trust Ken completely as he has been our service manager for over 20 years. He has been especially helpful at showing us how to use the advanced technology of the car. Recently, when we couldn't figure out how to turn off the 'need air in tires' warning after we had put air in the tires, even though very busy, he came out to the parking lot, solved the problem, and showed us how to handle it in the future. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else. Courteous, helpful, and service you can count on.

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.

I've been looking for a Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4 for some time. I did all the research online and when I finally reached out to dealers via Toyota.com, Manhattan Beach Toyota and Aaron Lear were the first to reply, and almost immediately. Aaron was extremely helpful and sincere, with absolutely no pressure from him. At the time of our first contact, I was not ready to purchase at that very moment. It took a couple of weeks to get my ducks in a row. During that time, I dealt with several other dealers, and while most were also pleasant, Aaron was the one I went back to due to his professionalism, and easy to get along with personality. My wife and just felt comfortable with him and that is why we decided to reach out to him first when I finally got things in order. He had the Tacoma I was looking for on the lot and we went to see him. Our experience once on the lot was exceptional. All the staff we dealt with were friendly, personable and professional. The negotiating was straight forward with no pressure and we got a the price we wanted. From the time we drove on to the lot, to when I drove away with my new Tacoma that same day, our entire time with Aaron and the rest of the Manhattan Beach staff (Nat and Hector included) was very pleasant and positive experience! I would recommend Aaron and Manhattan Beach Toyota to anyone looking for a new Toyota.

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 recommend this dealership, friendly atmosphere, James delivered my car to my house, car runs great,everything works, great deal, glad I beat everyone to it, Most times the car is already gone

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 had my 2016 Rav4 Serviced for the first time at the Hollywood Toyota dealer earlier this week. ( It was purchased from out of state) Michael told me that the service would be no charge due to the low Milage and being under 2 years old. He also explained to me when I should have the next service done to best take advantage of my last free service. He also told me my cabin and engine air filters should be changed soon but that they would be okay until my next service, but to be sure to plan on having that done at that time. My appointment was at 9 am. He told me the service should take about two hours. At 11:05 it was ready. I was concerned about having my SUV serviced at such a busy dealership and being lost in the shuffle. I was glad that did not happen. Everything was taken care of promptly and with the upmost of curtesy. 👍👍Thanks, Terry R

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.

Alex Castro genuinely makes me feel that he cares about the safety of my vehicle, hence, my well being and therefore, I follow his recommendations. Had I not brought my car in, I would have never checked my tires, and most likely, had a flat or worse. There were a few items that needed attention, however, Alex strongly emphasized that above all things, I needed new tires and that exactly what I did. Thank you, Alex!

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!!!

1) I was able to see my outstanding service coordinator (Julio Flores); 2) I was able to get my problem fixed quickly and at minimum cost; 3) LOVE the Uber drop off; 4) 100% trust in NoHo/Julio's honesty & knowledge; 5) 100% reliable results with all work done at NoHo; 6) very efficient service every time (for many years); 7) everyone pleasant; 8) TV never has FOX "news" on!

Good safety features, plenty of room for people and cargo in a small footprint, sits higher than a sedan for better visibility. Hybrid transition is seamless. CVT transmission feels like a regular automatic.

Good customer service. Got in and out really quick. Love the amenities they have for customers that wait for their car.

My Toyota RAV4 Hybrid gives not only great gas mileage but an excellent ride with all the features of a luxury car . Very satisfied

I am beyond thankful I came across DCH Gardena Honda. I knew exactly what I was looking for in a car, specifically a Honda Accord, when I began searching in early June. Long story short--I went to multiple dealerships, did my research through multiple avenues, test drove, and got incredible quotes. Unfortunately I was not given proper attention at any of the other dealerships I went to and was even told to pretend I'm color blind to settle for a car I didn't want. I knew exactly what I wanted and found that this car might not exist. I then reached outside my local area to give DCH Gardena Honda a call & salesman Kent Argue ended up answering my call. Their website said they had the exact car I was looking for & I asked him if they truly had it on their lot, & I let him know I have done my due-diligence in research, calling dealerships, visiting them, & getting quotes. I let him know what the best offer I received was & he told me he'd do what he could. I got a call back within two minutes & I was prepared for him to say they didn't have the car anymore (which I had been told from other dealerships as well). Instead Kent called me back with an even better price for the EXACT car I wanted & I told him I'd be there in an hour. Gardena isn't especially close to me so he wanted to make sure it would absolutely be there for me when I got there, & it was. When we got there all of the salesman at DCH Gardena Honda were SO nice and none of them made me feel like I was about to get swindled. All of the other dealerships we went to would leave us feeling disgusted. Not the case here at all. All of the salesmen & women we came across were so nice & very hospitable. Kent is THE BEST! He was literally the first salesman to talk to ME. He also talked to my husband, but he acknowledged that this car was for me & I was going to be the one making the decisions on this car. Respect goes such a long way. Kent not only has respect but he is also so kind & patient, makes sure your experience is as stress free as possible, & that we leave with exactly what we came there for. Which we absolutely did. I left the dealership that day with my beautiful car, a personal demonstration of everything inside my car by Kent with a walk through of every feature on the car's wheel & dash. He provided us with his cell & told us to contact him about anything & everything I needed even after leaving the dealership. Unfortunately a few days later we saw some "rail dust" on the paint of my white car (we've never owned a white car & after doing some research realized that this is common on all cars, but especially visible on white cars). However since this was a new car to me, we reached out to Kent & asked him what they can do about this. I ended up driving my car back to Gardena where Kent looked at the car, saw the "rail dust," got the manager's approval to get the car to detail where they attempted to get the rail dust removed. I was there for a little while, enjoyed the leather seats, TV, & was checked on & updated by Kent on the constant. I checked the car out 2 or 3 times & wasn't content with the results just yet, so they said the only way they & I would be happy with the results is if they do a clay bar treatment. Because this would take around 4 hours Kent personally drove me to Enterprise to get me a rental car for a day & come back. I came back the next day to find Kent personally buffing out my car. He told me he had been buffing out the last details personally for the last hour. It looked GREAT! Ultimately Kent is amazing & I couldn't be happier with our purchase from DCH Gardena Honda. I recommend you ask for Kent!

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

Just purchased a 2016 Toyota Camry, beautiful car, love it! Andrew A., our salesperson, was great! Every step of the way he helped us get into the car we wanted, at the $ price we wanted. The process was really easy (I recommend going to their website first to fill out the 1 minute credit application, saves lots of time at the dealership) we arrived.. credit check, done... took our time test driving, done... picked the car we wanted, done... paid off our trade-in, done...got the financing, done... drove out in our new car, done! We cannot thank Andrew and all the team there enough for getting us into our first, NEW car as family. If your in the market for a car, you gotta go see them!

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.

About 3 months ago I went to the dealership to check out the Lexus NX???s. (Checking out cars isn???t like going to Macy???s to try on shoes.) I wanted to check out the colors, interior and the ball park price. I look like I???m 17 years old, So no one ever helps me or takes me seriously. I guess Doug did because he was so patient and helpful. He???s amazing. He took me around to look at several cars. He went out of his way to get the keys to open it up. I even told him I am just looking today. No problem, he said. Friday, May 18, 2018 I went back and looked for Doug and bought my new Lexus NX. It was easy and quite painless lol, After the purchase was done we went out to the car. All washed and clean. He taught me a lot about the basics. If I want, I could go back next week to learn more about this amazing Lexus. The finance guy was also amazing. His name is Paymon and he has a great personality and finds you the best rates if you want financing. Signing paperwork with him was a joy.

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!

Boris completed our internet purchase of a new 2017 Rav4 hybrid XLE after first contacting the dealer online. Lance originally quoted us a price, which after checking around was competitive and no hassle. After arriving at Hamer Toyota, we were greeted by Wendy as Lance was with another customer. Boris then took over and pulled the exact model and color we asked for. After my wife and I both drove the car, Boris answered our questions and helped complete the paperwork. Josh from finance completed the paperwork, offered additional coverage, and explained payment options. Altogether, Hamer Toyota has been very fair, honest, and good to us for over 15 years. That's why we bought here again and will continue for years to come. --Mike and Martha Harvey

This car runs great and seems to have more power and capacity than the Prius I have driven in the past. Comfortable seats, (cloth) just wish they were heated but I opted for the LXE instead of limited due to budget. Gas mileage runs around 28-29 mpg, not quite what they advertise at 30-34. Great car nonetheless.

For the 3rd time I bought a used Toyota Corolla at Cabe. With Charlie's help I was always satisfied of the deal. Charlie always guide you, he's very professional. Thanks also to Alex

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!

I bought a 2018 Camero over the weekend and it was the best car buying experience to date for my family! This is our third car we bought this year. Eric the salesman saved us so much time by pretty much reviewing all the numbers possible before we even came to see the car. We live 1 & 1/2 hours away so this was so appreciated. This was the third dealer we went to for a Camero. After a nightmare experience at Simi Valley Chevrolet of hard selling and the finance manager -the "closer"- being down right disrespectful to me, a woman, Eric and Harbor Chevrolet were a pleasant surprise! No hard sell & everyone there was friendly, nice and helpful from the girl at the front desk to the financing woman Lilia who we signed the paperwork with. This dealership is tops! First one that didn't try to rip me off with price and payments like the others where I have previously tried buying. When I walked from other dealerships for my other cars I have bought this year they end up calling my with a completely different payment & cash down, but Harbor doesn't play those games. To this car on saturday was a total of 6 hours driving time to and from the dealership, worth every minute of drive time for this positive experience. You saved me a lot of time & aggravation so thank you Eric. I would and have recommended you to everyone who asks about our new car and everyone is asking about it! Someone followed my son and when they got to a red light asked my son what year the car was and said they want one too! Thanks again, Marci Tierstein -mom to Trace

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.

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

My experience began the moment I visited the Longo Toyota website. During a two week period I visited several Local dealership web sites to find a truck to meet the needs of my growing family. We decided a Tundra TRD Sport was perfect. When I logged onto the Longo site, I inquired about a truck and within 3-5 minutes I received an email and text message from Internet Sales Manager Jorge Haro. We exchanged commminication and then spoke on the telephone. We consider this to be a world class digital experience. I took 24 hours to talk the truck and pricing over with my wife and we decided we would like to move forward with the purchase. Knowing Jorge was off the following day, I was directed to Jose Del Solar a second Internet Sales Manager. I was a bit nervous that experience wouldn't be as good as it was with Jorge, boy was I wrong to assume that. Jose was patient, answered my questions, and what made this a special experience for me...I took the metrolink into El Monte from Redlands /San Bernardino and Jose picked me up at the train station in the truck and immediately began the test drive. How incredible is that? Great work Jose!! At the conclusion of the experience, Jose had the truck washed, gave me a succinct tour of the Longo service center, inventory, and parts department. Job well Jorge Haro and Jose Del Solar! In terms of financing I worked specifically with Takin Ghaznavi and Ali Adnan who were both open and honest with all elements of the paperwork and processes. I was sure to tell them both in person, but they were real professionals. I take a lot of pride in managing my credit and purchases and they were very respectful to that. I could not ask from more from these two gentlemen and I'd like to say THANK YOU Takin and Ali. Regards George B. , Redlands, CA.

I wanted a car with a bit more room than my Prius. The Rav 4 Hybrid is perfect for me. I love the fact that I’m a bit higher up with the additional visibility that brings. Getting a hybrid eased my concerns about getting into the SUV—gas mileage is great. Not as good as the Prius but far better than other heavy cars/SUV’s. Between 33-40 mpg depending on exterior temps.

Was looking at Ford CPO Mustang.Great Dealership. Will be going back soon.

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.

So easy, it left me extremely pleased! I brought two friends with me for "second-third opinions," and they both enjoyed sharing the adventure with me! Very happy with our salesman who explained clearly what each step was in the test drive and through the paperwork.

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.

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.
