2019 Toyota Rav4 Limited Review - Better, Much better! [4K]

- Hello everyone, this is Run Ze hoping everyone is having a great holiday so far! This will be last video of 2018 and we want to end the year with the vehicle that we wanted to review as soon as it came out. This 2019 Rav4 is impressive in every way. The exterior masculine design is saturated with every defined and refined line on the Rav4. Although this car lacks power, there are some really cool technology packed inside. I am hoping to see Toyota either making bigger V6s or putting force induction in their four cylinders; they are probably one of the only manufacture that has stayed with Naturally Aspirated engines in this current market. The interior oozes the Lexus feel, especially the gear selector portion in the middle. What do you guys think? What highlights and features do you guys love the most about the all-new Rav4. Let’s start a conversation

Seen a ton of review videos and this by far is the best one. Keep up the great work!
One of the best reviews on UA-cam. I am eager for the Hybrid model to be released here in the US. Thanks for posting.
Great review very informative, honestly much better than those big name youtuber.
Thanks for watching Hunter! Hopefully we'll get there one day :)
I brought home my 2019 RAV4 Limited two days ago and learned so much more from your video than from the dealer. Who knew there was hands free trunk entry?! Well done!
so you happy w it?
Very nice and informative review :) . Cheers from Norway!
Carros da Toyota cada vez melhor. Principalmente esse Rav4
Lindo demais
I like your review and your honesty regarding the pros and cons. I also like the production value of your opening - very 2020.
Great start of video. As always informative and entertaining. Great vehicle and great job
Paul M thank you for your kind words Paul!
great looking SUV. thanks for a great review :)
I got my niece and nephew a previous gen Rav 4. They love it. But this new model look much better. It has the masculine front end. I’ll go check it out at the dealership. Quick informative review.
🦅🦅🇺🇸
Nice channel. First video I seen from you and I just subbed
Great review on a great car dude.
You are very great UA-camr and simple.
Another great review! 🤙
Erwin Lutz thanks for watching Erwin!
Thank you Toyota for staying away from turbo charged engines! Tried and true 👍
DeathsInverse of course! It would have been perfect if they offered a V6
@@ColdStart I agree.
Well said
Cold Start the 301 hp Camry engine
LiquidSm0ke yes of course! Hopefully they will make that available for the rav4
Very informative!
“It’s so masculine!” lol I’m a female and I just got the limited RAV4 yesterday. Fully loaded as well, it sucks that the Canada version did not have the panoramic sunroof, mine has it and it is beautiful. Get the Pearl White version, so it’s more feminine 😂 Great video!
I wish they would make upgradeable radios. I would pay for the software if it was available. I like that they are including the Weather Tech style floor mats in some Toyota models now. This car looks great. Nice review!
subscribed, nice review
I own a Rav 4 2016. I test drove the Rav 4 XLE 2019 and I have no plans buying it. Loud engine and aggressive and constantly shifting transmission.
In USA I can get into a Lexus NX for about the same price as the limited.
Great video
Good review
Great video. Just came across your channel and I must say you’ve done a great presentation. Just subscribed to your channel.
Ricky S thanks for watching Ricky! We’ll definitely be even better in 2019! 😁
Great review!
Thanks for watching Paul!
Great review! Does the Apple Car Play conects through USB or wireless?
yes and this time it actually has ground clearance the other one didn't but ill keep my outliner doe
Super job... just purchased mine today! 💖
Robyn’s Empty Nest how do you like it? We just stopped by Toyota dealership and are debating buying one.
Chri Alva I LOVE it... my best friend is getting one because she saw mine!
the two tone colour is nice idea can we get that in this limited model?
does the 2nd row move up at all? I have a 2014 rav and the seats dont move which is not helpful when loading up for trips.
cold start you should do a review with 4 adults in the rav4 while you drive .
I can't find where do I change the color of the body in the screen, like you did. Please show or tell me where I can find that
Could you please make a Rav4 Hybrid LE/XLE Video. Would like to know Real Life Fuel Economy.
do you like the trail or the limited better?
C'mon Run, you gangster AF. Also, why does the video have a weird halo/glow to it? It's a bit distracting. Good review tho, I watch all your regular car reviews :D I also test drove a Rav4 recently. I found the transmission felt a bit better in Sport mode, since it didn't shift as often.
Do you feel RAV4 better driving than Tiguan?
Amazing Review!!
How about fuel mileage numbers?
Does it drive better than a CX5???
Great review! Given all models will be made in Canada in 2019, the price should drop substantially.
Dave In Canada I hope so! Or more features installed
Does the adaptive cruise work at all speeds like the Subaru eye sight. Meaning, does it come to a complete stop if the car in front stops and again start from a complete stop if the car ahead moves?
It's super good for the price, the cruise control is on par with Tesla autopilot. seriously the wheel will turn and drive itself with no hand touch for 12 seconds on the freeway.
Excellent review!
Brian Petersen thanks for watching Brian! Happy new year
do you feel engine is noise？
Why Toyota didn’t add folding mirrors for this model!!
Great review but why the video i washed out? you didn't bring the real colours of the car.
Great review
I was just curious how the upgraded JBL system sounded? That's a feature my in laws are curious aboutThank you for your time
It sounds great! Clear audio with enjoyable bass. Hope this helps
Excellent! Thank you for the quick reply
Would have been nice to take the time to pop the hood and take about the engine displacement and etc. Oh well !!!
What color is that?
Wow.. Rav4 looks so nice now!
Justin Behan I agree!
Great more speeding Toyota Savages on the freeway!
Great Video, Thanks!
In germany is no carplay available (no entune 3.0) 😡
Cool features..is this CVT or DSG..what about the body quality..?
Dude, luckily Toyota doesn't have DSG at all 😁
No tow hitch to hang my bike?
This is to gangster for me😂😂😂
Hidden feature, The rear view mirror in my XLE Prem, has its LEVER which is adjustable on both ends of its stretch, for height and 360 degree adjustments. its cool, nobody mentioned it. Like a nice shower head.
cinematics is good but damn too loud lower it a bit
Is the rear window able to be flipped open, like with a Highlander?
The rear window is not able to be flipped open
Cold Start thanks
Car is great I got 2019 XLE RAV4 excellent vehicle love it 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
How do you like it after a month? I am planning to get the 4wd xle.
Kofi Boakye it’s pretty good very fuel efficient from previous RAV4 I had Quality is good wish they had lot of little extra add on like like silver scuff plate front of bumper and rear but they only come in Limited LOL unfortunately..
Overall Good Buy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@alanh8101 Thank you. Do you think the xle premium is worth it or I should take the standard xle?
Kofi Boakye if you have money get premium it’s worth it!
And will pay off in long run..
@@alanh8101 great
Which is your vedio recording camera?
We use the Sony A7 iii
@@ColdStart
Nice clarity vedios
Thank you. and where is Off Road? :D
Nodar Ctulhu it is not the trail edition
Megatron review
Does rear seat move forward and back? Or recline?
It does recline ever so slightly. Doesn't move though.
Exactly what deathsinverse said
That should’ve been covered in the video.
sounds like jin yang
Winner winner rav4 dinner
video filter u have used in this , not a good idea , too shady , otherwise nice info .
Классный РАФИК.

Good review, thanks. However, do a bit more research on the gearbox. It’s not really a regular automatic, even though it does have a torque converter. It’s a Direct Shift gearbox.
It's a traditional automatic.
Dennis Xu it is not.
paultan.org/2016/12/16/video-toyota-explains-direct-shift-8-speed-automatic/
Vitali S would you say its less reliable?
$42K is reasonable for all of the features that come in the Rav4. Let's be honest, what doesn't cost $40k these days? Seems like if you want any decent looking car with features you're going to spend at least $40K.
I would have loved to see the V6 offered in the Limited though. I'm going to be in the market for a new vehicle over the next 18months, personally I would look at a 2016-18 4Runner over the Rav4 for more space and reliability.
BTW, used to live around the corner from this location where you filmed... Brampton, glad I don't live there anymore lol ...
Hmm why dont you bring here in canada and try to the snow road if it work...
louis binwag this was shot in Ontario, specially Georgetown
I’m Canadian!
I test drove an Adventure model with great hopes Saturday. Yes, it's much improved and a great car, but with one major flaw for tall people. I was so disappointed as I was hoping to buy! The center console has a sharp curve which cut into my upper shin/knee area, causing pain after a short test drive. Dang it Toyota! Why don't you put a tall driver in your development cars to point out an easily corrected design fault in your prototypes!!!
How often do you see a tall asian?
How tall are you? I'm 6 1" and my brother in law in 6 3" and we both fit comfortable in my Adventure.
Snoop Anoop I have a 36” inseam and wear a size 13 shoe.
I have a 38" waistline and I weight 290lbs.So we're both big guys but I'm maybe more solid anyways, I don't feel smaller in it. Maybe the Sequoia if you still want an suv might be more for you or the Tundra if you want a truck. I hope they also do the Highlander. As for the FJ Cruiser that would also be cool.
Snoop Anoop I’ve owned five different RAV4’s over the years, along with multiple Highlanders and one Tacoma and one Tundra. My only issue with the new RAV4 was my right knee against the sharp edge of the center console, otherwise the fit was great. I’m sure most people won’t have that issue and it’s going to be the best quality small sport ute over the long haul. Unfortunately, the pain it caused my right leg was unbearable. I’ll have to stick to my Highlander for now.
I thought it was a big Ford Ecosport for the front of the car Lmao.
@Yippie: What happen to the days when cars were just simple, they were some of the most reliable cars. This including Fords and Chevys. Too much garbage was put into cars to make them less reliable. All these things break down, this is why the German cars are notorious for problems. I want my car to be purist, next to nothing in them and less weight. And if you want luxury features, buy a Lexus , Mercedes or BMW . Turbo are hard on engine, and they break down components.
i test drove one was going to buy if i liked it limited model i own a 2012 venza 2.7 leather int. pan. roof 6 speed trans. 52 thousand miles all wheel drive nice sound system in it WAS I SHOCKED THE VENZA DID EVERY thing BETTER EVEN THE STEREO IN THE 2019 RAV 4 SOUNDED LIKE A CHEAP RADIO your reputation will only take you so far as a really great car manu. just ask gm ford and chrysler
Very good review.... I feel like Toyota sort of cheap'ed out on this Limited trim. It's a similar price to its competitors but lacks some of their finishes and features. No latches to fold down the rear seats? No real leather seats? No electronic controls for the passenger seat and without height adjustment? No panoramic sunroof? No turbo engine option? Heated steering wheel only heating 50% of it? Low resolution and lame graphics for the screen? I really want to like it. Looks great. I just expected more from Toyota for this new model. Feels like Toyota is riding on their name and badge to sell them. Penny pinching money at the expense of the customer. I don't like that.
What do you expect? it's a $43,000 CAD car. Panoramic sun roof available at US version, most likely going to come to Canada by 2020. If you're looking for Latches to fold down the rear seats, leather seats, electronic passenger 4 ways control seat, turbo engine, Headup display, I recommend you look into Mazda Cx-5 Signature edition (similar price). There is no better resolution graphic for the screen at this price of vehicle, If that's really important for you, you have to look for something higher such as Lexus, BMW, or RangRover.
I look at it the same way as Yippie, critiquing this trim, not the car. I rather the limited cost even more but make me feel that I’m driving the limited trimline. Things like power passenger seat, rear latch etc should have been included, even if it costs more. The RAV4 grabbed my attention right away from its styling and I’m sure people wouldn’t mind paying more, for the limited trim line, if it included all the missing options and details. Overall, given the opportunity, I would still buy this car.
@@GuuiYae, What I except is that this RAV4 Limited Trim matches it's competitors highest trim offerings in features for a similar price. You said it yourself, the Mazda CX-5 has more.
@@yippie6862 Cx5 doesn't have more or less. Cx5 is actually less reliable than Rav 4 while it offers a bit more. What you mentioned in demand is not possible with the price of these cars. Like I said unless you wanna go for lexus or BMW.
@@GuuiYae, You just said in your other comment that the CX-5 has more; "If you're looking for Latches to fold down the rear seats, leather seats, electronic passenger 4 ways control seat, turbo engine, Headup display, I recommend you look into Mazda Cx-5 Signature edition (similar price)." Now you say in your last comment that the "Cx5 doesn't have more or less". Which is it? I'm confused.
+ Great reliability, NA engines, exterior and interior design
- lack of luxury features for top trim: panoramic roof, power passenger seats
I don't want a sunroof at all. Not loving the Subaru-like side mirrors either.
I definitely like the front, looks "toyota" truck to me. The back looks like it's trying to be a Jeep. Seems like a much nicer Rav than the last gen but idk if they're trying a little too hard with features that people really won't even take advantage of. I like the bump in power for sure. I think it's a winner! But maybe they'll scare the moms away with this model, who knows. More masculine doesn't necessarily matter, as they tend to gravitate toward trucks.
Ahh yes I see what you’re saying! I definitely think this is a winner. I’m excited to see what they’re going to do to their 4Runner and sequoia
👍
fold the seats!
and its bigger to
Looks like a Jeep Compass to me.
Minus all the problems. Lol
There’s nothing wrong with adding a turbo option. Toyota does it with Lexus.
Either a turbo option or a V6 option
What is the name of the large church that you parked the Rav4 in front of at the start of your video?
I dont like the idea of turbo4, but why aren't they offering v6? I think most people want a 5 passenger CUV with a v6. The MPG for the 4 is not much better and considering the ability to merge onto highway or to handle hills is much more important than a few MPG's. Hopefully the new 2 row Honda Passport isn't too big for its v6... But yea Rav4, CR-V, Crosstrek, etc would be better with a 6 option(and not for racing or whatever, but just a smoother safer riding family vehicle)....But great video, and I have a 2017 Rav4 and am going to take a look at the 2019 soon!
dave church I know! I was pretty disappointed there isn’t a V6 option. That will actually open up more market imo. Thanks for watching Dave!
Cause even with a 4 cylinder it sells great. Most people buy these cars for efficiency, and cost not power
@@alextran8188 Turbos and V6 Transverse mounted engines are a maintenance nightmare. They need to make a larger naturally aspirated 4 for the Highlander and get rid of the V6. The V6 should be reserved for the 4Runner.
@@alextran8188 yes, but I believe that the 6 in the long run will be just as efficient because of how much the 4 will have to work, especially if loaded with passenger and going up hills or merging on highway. A 6 would cost more, but it would be an option, and I think more people are settling for the 4(because there is no option) then outright choosing it. However my opinion wll be tested by the 2019 honda passport. If(big if) it comes in under 35k then your talking a 2 row v6 that is not much bigger than rav4 , and would cost the same as a limited or adventure trim rav4.
It is my understanding that, when they offered the V6, which was prior to the 2013, only about 5‰ of buyers opted for the V6.
I wonder why the shift lever is closer to passenger than driver? Just strange and uncomfortable if you enjoy resting your hand on shift lever 🤔
Paul M I see what your saying. Maybe another way Toyota wants you to keep both hands on the steering wheel 😁
A bit dramatic don't you think?
Все понятно 😊
Классно!!!!!
How tall is this Asian guy?
Again this is the limited that cost $38k
Still no Android auto
Less focus on the commentator and more on the features. Sheesh!!!
the more i look the more i am disapointed in the new rav 4 so sad me
Henry Walker why ?
If they could’ve only made this a mid or full-size....sigh.....
Highlander and 4Runner exist.
Lexus RX350
No Panoramic sun roof but in the USA yes!? Almost was going to buy it... but nahhhhh get up to speed with the USA !!! Canada knowing that leaves a bad taste in a lot of future customers mouth. Never buy a first year crossover. Wait until 2020 to see if Toyota catches up.
Totally agree with you. It’s poor marketing and a cash grab in my opinion. 2019 Santa Fe is where it’s at.
🤔🤔
no hybrid? lol
There is a hybrid.
i know
It doesn't look like an rx... it's a Nx, that had a child with a tacoma.
Steve Smith 😂😂
@@ColdStart I've had the nx200t f sport for the last 3 years. Drove this and can instantly see and feel the similarities. I actually preferred the transmission on the Toyota. Great review! I am pretty sure this will be the wife's next ride.
Steve Smith thanks for watching! It will be a great addition along with your Lexus
meh....woof.
Why does a more masculine look make it better? Women will buy these too. Sexism still exists!
Babs Young If it were reviewed by a woman the language would be different. Being yourself and hilighting what appeals to you is not sexist. Why do people keep looking for every excuse to be offended?
