🏆Would you rather wait for the new generation of the RAV4 or buy the current one?🤔 🔴 2024 Toyota RAV4: The Pros And The Cons WATCH HERE 👉 ua-cam.com/video/ig_fxV_jGf4/v-deo.html
No, I will not buy a 2025 RAV4. I would not want a Hybrid and prefer All-Gas. I also prefer simplicity in a car just like the good old days, I don't need all this electronic junk that would only break more easily and require more maintenance.
The reality is that the hybrid is a simpler and more reliable system than the all gas. No alternator, no starter motor, no AC belts etc. After 20 years of refinement it is one of the most reliable and robust systems available
I worked on the assembly line at the Honda plant in Alabama for 16 years. A model change is always the biggest nightmare! You have to train on the new model while keeping up production with the current model. We once had so many cars waiting on repair that we ran out of places to park them. At least Honda test drives every car they make where as Ford only test drives 1 of every 50 vehicles made.
With the new Rav4 coming, the "old" version can be negotiated to a very decent price. I just did that and scored $6000 below sticker price. From what I see on paper, the 25' version doesn't bring enough for me to wait and pay more. Plus new generations of any vehicle is something I avoid.
This is a dilemma I am facing: 2024 or wait for 2025. The problem with 2025 is reflecting on the 2019 which had so many faults it was a disgrace for Toyota and it took 2 years to fix them. Does that mean waiting till 2027 to buy a 2025? That's 3 years away.
Went for gas 2024. Didn't want new model year...too iffy. it's mostly perfect :-) gets 39 highway. I got what I wanted color and model... made in Japan... I am on west coast.
I purchased a new 2017 RAV4 XLE 4 wheel drive with several options and standard added safety features for $24,500. As the price of the RAV4 approaches or exceeds $40,000 and interest rates on auto loans well over recent lows, how many new RAV4 will they sell? In 2017 the RAV4 had a price increase over $2,000 due to added safety features becoming standard. That knocked it off the #1 slot to the cheaper Rogue.
My wife hit a 2019 RAV4 in the rear of the vehicle at 5 mph with a 2001 Pathfinder and it totaled it. Only pushed up the bumper on the Pathfinder. Not very sturdy in my opinion.

I will most likely order my 2024 Toyota Rav4 this week (Sep '24). The reason, i don't want a new model. Usually, the first three years are dangerous years for buying a new generation. The first few years represent simple problems that will be corrected in future years. Later years, 3-4 bring out the long mileage problems, i.e. transmission/engine issues that can be addressed for long term reliability. The 2024 came out in 2019 and now gets perfect reviews/reliability from Consumer Reports. Also, I don't want a Hybrid. I work on my own vehicles and can't work on Hybrids. That means it would be expensive to repair in its older days. I usually keep a car for a least 15 years.
They won't. Toyotas engines are the best cause of decades of advantages they've had over their rivals. Toyota holds all the important IPs for best quality car engine, so competitors have literally no way to gain an advantage over Toyota when it comes to power train. But in everything else Toyota sucks. Hyundai's and Kia's blow Toyota's out of water when it comes to the quality of material used in car's interior, infotainment and other gimmicky stuffs.
I feel like the heated seat is just on its prime temperature. during summer i also turn on the ventilation and it gets cold too fast and i feel like I peed on my pants lol
We don't want the Toyota Rav 4 to look like a crossover as there is already that Toyota corolla cross which is already a compact crossover. We want a bigger Rav 4
I hate all the possible redesigns that were in this video. They lowered the clearance and made it look like a venza or Lexus. If mimics the cruiser or 4runner im more for it.
And I hope they do. I REALLY don't want that 8 speed automatic. The eCVT is super durable, efficient, and even simpler than a manual transmission (which would also be a good choice)
The mileage of my 2009 Lexus RX350 is about 200k km. It will last at least another 5 years. So I will wait until then. I will probably get a Corolla Cross or RAV4.
Also remove the silver plastic edges from inside cars make it blood moon red ,seats as well, and most importantly, headlights turning with stearing well.. when head lights on at night
Toyota should offer the old one in 3 models and drop their price points to appeal to 20-35 year olds. If the sketch shown is Toyota RAV4 2025 I’m in. I’m hoping they add more torque and power in their vehicle. If they can get model that has 190kw and 550nm of torque it would be a diesel killer!
I REALLY like the rendition that they show in silver/grey. Although I wouldn't want them to slope the back of the roof and decrease cargo capacity. The design they show in green I find totally ugly.
Are you still going to have to wait 10 minutes for the boot to open and close? And listen to a beep for every little insignificant thing, most of the time it seems to beep for no reason at all so fingers crossed it isn’t something serious. O, and the charging of the plug in is hit and miss, terrible app.
The only Bad Look In this Car Is the Gap between the Tire and the Body Most Good Looking cars Has Small Space between the Tire and the Body which make the Car Looks way More Beautiful
I keep reading this. I ordered in late November, had took delivery to my speculations February 22. I was informed along the way of what was going on. My car began the build December 9. Was at the shipyard January 1. Arrived in Jersey around February 6. I felt 3 months was a fair turnaround to get exactly what I wanted. I also insisted the extras come factory installed because I refused to pay to install them at the dealership. That’s what they wanted to do. The factory installed everything.
The 2004 to 2012 Ravs had nore cargo space behind the second row seats than after 2013. That already keeps me from putting it high on my to buy list. I put 256K miles on my 2006. It wasn't perfect but it was a reliable car. But at this rate it'll design its way off my list.
I have a 2007 with a powerful V6 and 225k miles. Lots of storage, lightweight with 276 hp. New ones keep getting smaller for cargo and space. I am liking that they are trying to get some decent horsepower back in these cars so i can by a new one. I hope they don’t make it like a crossover hatchback type small cat
- New Looks. Don't care. - 6-speed DCT over a tried and tested E-CVT? No thanks. Reliability first. - Hybrids, DynamicForce engines. Already there. - EV Prime, mnore range? Meh. Less cargo. More hassle. Maybe when I can charge at home. - SafetySense 3.0? Already there. - More swanky options? Don't care. - More power? Nah. More intereior space, and maybe redesign, that's about it. Rav4 is already pretty good. And maybe if I wanted to off-road more. The current system isn't meant to do that.
One should wait until when your Car/SUV die then have it tow to the Toyoda Dealers and buy a Brand New Toyoda Hybrids 2028 Model... A Toyoda would not just Drop Dead out of nowhere!

Domestic sales surged 20.5% in September, while those in the United States rose 14% and sales in Europe were up 18.1%.

Its not the same. the current generation uses the same design from 2019-2024. 2025 will have a new design to run on for the next several years keeping that same design
@@aznboi023 It is true that each Generation of Toyoda or Honda/Nissan/Subaru about 5-7 years in the Last 25 years; but with modern Technologies; A new Generation would be like 3-4 years Max. We used to have GM/Ford changed Model/Style/Generation every 8-10 years in early 1980-1995; then new Generations of Cars/SUV went down to 5-7 from around 1997 until now. Cheers,
One big missing reason: what is the MPG for the hybrid version of RAV 4 2025? We only care about high MPG because of rising fuel cost that drains our pockets. Fk EVs with electric plugs. 😡

@@keyten5957 May I know how much you paid?
Current RAV4 generation spans from 2019 to 2024, as usual the last year production of the generation is the most reliable model year.
I’m buying a 2024. I usually don’t buy the first year of a new generation. They usually have the most problems.
@apollo1464: That’s a good point. I had that happen to me.
Thats smart. I like to buy 3rd year from a refresh, picked up a 2023 F150 - all the issues from the 2021 redesign are sorted.

Just buy used at great deal. Prices looking better these days. Get 2020 and up.

Better to buy a 2024 when a 2025 is available. You will save few thousand dollars.
I have a2019 Hybrid, NEVER HAD A SINGLE PROBLEM.
Why was I so lucky, WHAT PROBLEMS SHOULD I HAVE HAD.
I purchased a new 2017 RAV4 XLE 4 wheel drive with several options and standard added safety features for $24,500.

I was torn between the rav 4 and the Honda crv but the one thing I don't like is the fact they have squared off around the 4 wheels?
I was torn too but the spare tire was super important to me
Don’t put a turbo in it. Hurts longevity, and ads complexity.

Are there people still waiting for the delivery of their 2023 RAV4 orders?
Ordered a 23 in November 2022 and still have another year to wait for its arrival.
I hope they don’t make it look like a crossover! I like the cargo space of an SUV. If I wanted a crossover I would buy a Venza. Great car!
Cabin noise is the biggest complaint with the Rav 4. How will they be addressing that?
They won't. Toyotas engines are the best cause of decades of advantages they've had over their rivals. Toyota holds all the important IPs for best quality car engine, so competitors have literally no way to gain an advantage over Toyota when it comes to power train.

You said it gimmicky.
Yea well there's a good chance a Kia or Hyundai's engine will die in a year or 6 and I'm still got my 94 Corolla and it's original engine ..
Yes I will wait and pre ordered
With a new plant in operation, though, there might be some issues.
Nobody wants third row seats ,they are a waste of time and money
Can I order a new Plug in RAV4 directly?
Advanture edition will exists in RAV4 2025?
Are they going to improve the heated seats. You can barely tell when they’re on.
I feel like the heated seat is just on its prime temperature. during summer i also turn on the ventilation and it gets cold too fast and i feel like I peed on my pants lol
Heated seats are nice until they don’t work anymore. Eventually they stop working.

Hope they address the cabin NOISE LEVELS…..
Should be louder
Cablegate redesign for the Hybrid?
Please no turbo and no CVT
Rav4 hybrid doesn't have a cvt. It has a ECVT which is nothing like a cvt.
@@alheiman9525 yes.. i bought mine last month and it is fantastic car.. i bought rav 4 hybrid LE .
The eCVT is even more reliable than a manual.

I REALLY love the silver/grey rendition. But I absolutely hate the design that they show in bright green - and not because of the color.
I would never buy a first generation model. That is called beta testing.
First year model* you mean?
I hope they don’t put a CVT in it
And I hope they do. I REALLY don't want that 8 speed automatic. The eCVT is super durable, efficient, and even simpler than a manual transmission (which would also be a good choice)
listen up Toyota , make sure the adventure model has tow hooks in front and rear, give jeep something to be worried about!
I should have never sold my 19 xse. Best car I’ve ever owned for the money
The mileage of my 2009 Lexus RX350 is about 200k km. It will last at least another 5 years. So I will wait until then. I will probably get a Corolla Cross or RAV4.
Also remove the silver plastic edges from inside cars make it blood moon red ,seats as well, and most importantly, headlights turning with stearing well.. when head lights on at night
I’ll get both. My lease will be up in 3 years.
It seems they went away from Venza and changed rav4 as Venza. Basically, they got rid off rav4 and renamed Venza to RAV4. What a trick they played!
Toyota should offer the old one in 3 models and drop their price points to appeal to 20-35 year olds.

How much did Toyota pay you for this infomercial?
Cheap. 1 dinner night with late sleepover with ya mom
Wait until 2028!!
I'm actually waiting for 2027/2028. New battery technology
It will be cvt and cost 50 grand in Canada.
There is no change to the 2025 Rav4 . The change will be in 2026.
Cablegate redesign?
I just bought a 2025 Rav4, there's no real changes over the 2024
I wish the front of the car would look less like Darth Vader's helmet.
The only Bad Look In this Car Is the Gap between the Tire and the Body Most Good Looking cars Has Small Space between the Tire and the Body which make the Car Looks way More Beautiful
I agree with you and that's probably why I won't but the rav 4, I think they should have left it rounded?
No need for electric vehicles.
Actually, I am waiting for the 2026 model.
Keep a non hybrid motor
A third row of seats?! This is a compact SUV, not a full-sized one.
You can't even get a 2024 Rav4 in 2024 - there's a ridiculous long wait list and by the time you get it, it will probably 2025.
