THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT! - Авто та транспорт
Crazy how the prices have changed in the past 2 years
Jeff said to check you out, so we here.
Hi Amit this is Jeff!! Thanks so much for checking our channel out here too. Please subscribe and be part of our community here too :)
@@FredAndersonToyota yeah yeah
@@FredAndersonToyota I'm definitely checking her out, alright 😏
No more fumbling for your car keys in a horror movie.
We have the XLE Premium with the cold weather package. The heated steering wheel gets hot within a mile of leaving home. The lumbar support has actually helped me get over a week long lower back ache. I usually drive my old Tundra '07, but took the Rav4 on a 2 hr drive, cranked up the lumbar support, back ache gone! I had the seats on low heat too.
I don’t care about Rav 4 but she is gorgeous
Great comparison of both vehicles. Thanks for all your hard work very much appreciated!
We bought a 2021 RAV4 XLE with the convenience package, we love it so much!
Awesome !! How much did it cost? I’m looking at XLE for next year.
Best review video Ive seen in along time and for so many reasons.
$3000.00 difference and basically Wheel, sunroof and seat.
Which one would you pick?
I wished Toyota would allow a black wheel and badging option on the XLE models. (Without having to upgrade to TRD model, etc.) Black RAV4 with black interior and accents=way cool factor!
very nice review, you are good on camera, knowledgeable and to the point. someone get a lapel mic, you could have a nice channel.
One of the best car reviews!
The first ever car review show the front seat all the way back, thank you!
exactly! I was looking this review for a while
Great video. Thanks for posting. XLE Premium gets my vote!
Great job, Christina! I usually prefer cloth seats to leather, but I may have to check out the softex material. My budget would prefer the XLE, but the Premium with the weather package definitely has some nice features.
I think XLE has everything that I need too!
Great review, Christina!! Can you do a review of 2021 Highlander?
Rav4 2020 XLE Premium and got one for wife, it get alot of attention. Dark Grey color too.
Excellent comparison. Just what I needed!
taller wheels does NOT necessarily mean higher ground clearance.
more often than not, it means a shorter sidewall.
And a shorter sidewall means better handling in turns, but bumpier ride. I prefer the smooth ride
Thanks, for the video, I recently acquired the 2022 RAV4 XLE. I have a question, does the XLE comes with a pre-wired for the fog lights? I would like to add the after-market fog lights if possible, preferably dealer install. Thanks, from California.
Thank you for this comparison video!
Omg my dad has a 2020 Toyota Highlander XLE, BEST SEATS I HAVE EVER SAT IN!!!!
There's nothing in the XLE premium that's worth $3000 to me. To each his own, though.
Just picked up my brand new 2022 RAV4 XLE Premium yesterday at Longo. I drove it 100 miles yesterday, I love the ride. If you add convenience package to XLE, difference isn't that much. I will go with Premium. And I did.
Oh my, Christina you could sell anything! Thank you for the fantastic video…
This new Rav4 car is nice
and clean. I like this new
Rav4 car because it makes
me feel comfortable and it
smells like new car.
You are so refreshing! Thankyou!
lol
The XLE premium does not come with heated seat standard unless you get it as the package??
This is an excellent video about the RAV 4, but I'm looking for HP. So I may go for an RDX or QX50.
But great job from this lady in showing in detail both cars.
So beautiful this will be my next car im switching from honda to toyota
Hi Jeff! Your the best with Toyotas i love ur vids
Great job Christina!
Rather have 17" tires. Rides better and future tire purchases will be cheaper.
Yup. More sidewall equals smoother ride
The Premium has SO MANY MORE FEATURES... this video compares a highly upgraded XLE to the Premium... but the standard has way less. THAT would have been a better comparison. I wish the one I just bought was $30k... but for the 2021 in the current market, I paid $46k, including dealer upgrades, $5k over MSRP due to scarcity and the extended warranty. Still super happy that I went with the Premium. It's amazing.
It is beautiful good looking classic yet elegant. I love it.
Great review.. Glad you're loving what you do..... Enjoyed it and hope to see more reviews.
toyota jeff camo was the best! The color matching top in lunar is nice, but the paints are the most stylish by far. 👍🏻
Jeff brought me here !! That surprise cameo though 🤣🤣
Hahaha glad you liked it! - Jeff
Thank you for your review. It is really helpfull video
Excellent video and review! You were on point! This vehicle caught my eye lately and wanted to check it out. Your presentation on it has prompted me to explore further. You are good!!
I have 2020 XLE nice car overall... I liked my previous car (Chevy Malibu 2013) better for getting onto freeway...ie. the way it accelerated was cleaner and had more get up and go... both are 2.5 litre 4 cylinder engines.
Does the premium come with those back seat mats?
Love Premium and larger wheels
Do 17 in wheels ride better than the 19 in? TIA
I test drove a 2021 xle today! Im in love 😍
Great! I’m saving for next year 😞
I have one too, great cars.
Thanks for the video!
What is the kind of floor mat thats in the trunk of the xle? It looks perfect for dogs like mine and I need it! Thank you
I would go with the xle with convenience package but 2022 now when they become available! Be waiting for a video just about the xle 2022. Thanks!
The XLE Premium is my choice, love those 19 inch wheels and the power lift gate.
How do I get it to unlock my passenger side? Mine doesn’t do that. I have to hit the unlock button. It only works on the drivers side. Is it something in that settings?
Very nice. The cars look pretty good as well.
I buy I xle today thanks to this video and is awesome 👏
The xle and xle prem have somewhat analog gauge cluster vs xse and limited have that big digital gauge cluster I love. I’m looking at an xse or limited.
Very detailed video! Mahalo!
Great information!!
You can usually use the key fob to set the alarm so you have to use the fob to unlock the car.
Nice car but the fuel economy would put me off. I'd go for the Hybrid and get around 50mpg.
That's in the UK.
I just bought an 2021 XLE and was curious to know where I can get that matt thats in the trunk that goes up to the seats? is that something I can purchase
You can also lock the car so you need the key fob to unlock it. So neither of these
are hybrids ? They only come as hybrids in the UK. and a plug in hybrid.
Informative! Good job!
When she roll down the red rav 4 i saw jeff holding the camera
Very informative video, thank you!
I didn't know that larger wheels also meant more ground clearance. I always thought that the larger wheels were offset by lower profile tires. Is there something in the way of specifications from Toyota that show this? I ask because I just messed up the front part of my car on a curb, and an looking for my next vehicle to have a higher ground clearance.
That is not totally true in this case. The outside tire diameter is larger on the premium. The base trims of the RAV4 have plenty of clearance to avoid scraping parking stops. The premium only has 0.2 inches more clearance. The base trims get better mpg and are quicker since there is less rotational mass.
Do you have any info on the next generation Toyota 86?
I'm taking whichever one that comes with you as part of the premium package 😁
The base 5 spoke wheels are very easy to clean, the 19's take some tedious work. And the 17 inchers provide a very cushy ride, due to the fat, meaty tires.
XLE Lunar Rock is my fave
Does the XLE come with remote start?
Jeff, want to see you more in the videos.
Keep up the good reviews....!
You are natural,looks familiar with it
I bought the premium, so you figure it out, as to which I liked better.
Nice review but the audio suffers...Can I suggest a wireless mic!
XLE premium, just bought one and love it
Do they have preset seating for 2 drivers?
What if a kid locks the door with keyfob inside will it automatically unlock or have to call a locksmith
Is it true there is no display for tire pressure?
Premium with the weather & convenience packages
Howdy, can you guys help me find the name for the back seat mats? Like on minute 4:10
Which 1 has the hands free foot trunk activation???
I got the 21 XLE Premium AWD. Very happy with the mileage as I have an 80 mile daily commute. The AWD performed really well in the recent snow storms. I got the cold weather package as well and only wish I had gotten the upgraded stereo technology package with the remote start. Actually if I had it to do over I'd probably go all out and get the Limited. But overall no regrets. It's going to be a great daily driver for me.
What’s the upgraded stereo technology or is that part of the advanced technology package?
@@finecameroongurl990 Yea it’s the package with the remote start and a few other things I don’t remember right now.
Remote start is free for all xle
@@Southpaw101I've figured out that if you don't have the technology package you don't get it at least not on the 21. Trust me I've tried all the tricks I could find online. But if you have something I haven't seen or tried I'd be happy to give it a go and report back.

Digging the pirate pants and Toyota Jeff cameo. HOLLA!!
Does Toyota Jeff come with the vehicle?
Great information
Looking to eventually upgrade to something bigger than my current ‘16 Camry, and since I am looking to stay with Toyota, I’ve got my heart pretty much set on a RAV4. Since I have most of the niceties that I could get in my Camry aside from dynamic cruise control, emergency braking, and the JBL sound system, when the time does come, I’ll likely go with something like an XLE Premium or Limited. Definitely planning on scheduling a test drive of one of the dealers in my area, and I’ve been hearing lots of good things! No wonder you see a ton of these (and also older RAV4s) on the road!
It’s been 2 years, did you get a RAV4?
@@theblue7311 Yup, I did! Got myself a new one back in 2021, namely an XLE Premium hybrid in Blueprint!
Slowest lift gate speed in any vehicle and I found the centre console too intrusive with regards to the room for your leg. I felt squished inside and I’m 6’2”
I was deciding between a Rav4 or a Tacoma but I chose a Tacoma because I fell in love with it lol
I prefer the wheels on the XLE
Great video.
I would go with the Premium wheels also. You did a good job with this review. Also "Soft-tex" will outlast leather. So its great.
This car sells for 54k usd here in Mauritius. Nearly the double
Get cha roll on!
Perfect and sport info thanx
Christina, America's most beautiful autoblogger. Keep it up!!! 👍👍👍. And good luck on Your channel.
Thanks for watching!
Please keep watching and subscribe so you can see her future reviews as well :)
Do these come with remote start?
Great video!
I have a 2022 XLE Premium. All I want Toyota to answer is why the Premium doesn't have a small plaque below the XLE stating that it is a Premium model.
Very well done !
Why did Toyota do this? All the features on the premium are typically expected to be found on an XLE...planned obsolescence?
Where are you located, I like the Rav4 xle
Great video
Is the xle come with garage homelink??
I love three of them
Crazy how in 2024 the Xle starts at $30,185 and the Xle premium starts at $33,072. That’s about a 10% increase, inflation is crazy
