  • The Hybrid powertrain feels "right" in this 2024 Toyota RAV4 Limited... 39MPG feels right, the power delivery is solid, and the comfort is exceptional. This is my first time getting behind the wheel of a Toyota RAV4, and it didn't disappoint. A lot to like about this. I kept a close eye on these during the pandemic, where supply was low and dealers took advantage of that, often charing huge markups over MSRP for these. The Rav4 TRD Off Road and Rav4 Prime were quite popular, and well, dealerships sure licked their chops when they got one into their lot.
    Which Toyota RAV4 trim is your favorite? XSE seems nice, this Limited is sleek... perhaps you're a fan of the Prime and TRD Off Road? To me, hybrid technology BELONGS in vehicles like this, crossovers, minivans, etc... Heck, even the Toyota Highlander. Just NOT the Toyota truck and SUV lineup, i.e. 4Runner, Tacoma, Tundra, Sequoia, and Land Cruiser. The new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser will be sporting the iForce Max just like the New 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro, Trailhunter and 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. =/
    What are your thoughts on that? Do you think the hybrid belongs in the whole Toyota lineup? Thank you for watching as always, I sincerely appreciate the support. If you haven't already, please consider Liking and Subscribing. Thank you!

    Great points! Especially about the RAV4 being built in Japan. That's a major selling point for me, along with the fantastic fuel economy. The interior looks really comfortable too. However, the infotainment screen sticking out does look a little awkward. Do you think there's a way to customize that at all?

    My wife has a 21 Limited for an airport commuter car. Great mileage. Reliable. Slow as can be. A lot of engine noise for little acceleration. They cheaped out on these.

    I own the 2022 RAV4 Limited Hybrid.
    We ordered it in September of 2021 and took delivery in March of 2022. (6 months)
    We could of picked one up sooner but I was Adamant for one with BOTH main packages.
    That would be the Advanced Technology Package and the Weather Package.
    (the salesman kept trying to get me to take one with ONLY the Weather Package but I held out and I am glad for that)
    To me it is NOT a True Limited if it does not have those two packages.
    The vehicle should of had the Limited come with those two packages as Standard Equipment.
    In the two years that we have owned our RAV4 it has been a very Good and Reliable Vehicle.
    What I like about our 2022 over the newer ones is the Infotainment Screen.
    Yes, the 'New One' has a higher resolution and is a bit larger however, ours has actual 'Buttons' on it.
    Home Button, Audio Button, Map Button, etc. It is easier to 'Tap' then trying to use the screen.
    The resolution on our 2022 is Good Enough for us. I can see just as good when compared to the new one.
    We plan on keeping our 2022 for 10-15 years. We still own our 2007 Camry XLE (V6).
    It is a decent car and has had very little repairs on it. Low mileage as well. (93K)
    Our 2022 RAV4 Limited Hybrid only has just over 10K miles in two years.
    Not bad. Not bad at all.

    I really don't like the lights that stick out like warts on the corners. It looks like they've finally stopped doing that with the headlights but the tailights still look bad. When something smacks into that lens and cracks/breaks it what do they cost to replace? I'd rather have a body panel scratched and not have to replace a $$ lens.

    My wife has the non-hybrid XLE Premium. Believe it was supposed to get 31 MPG and she manages to get just 26 MPG. She's not enamored with this vehicle by any means, and when I drive it the suspension feels a little unkempt- it wasn't refined despite having pretty much a Mazda sport suspension (minus double wishbone in the front). Toyota definitely accelerates as slow as possible to achieve that mileage rating. It's also a very engine noisy vehicle and not in a good way.
    She also drove the 2010 RAV4 V6 Sport for 9 years (because pretty much had 4Runner capacity in the cargo area)- that car was only rated for 26 MPG and she usually could get 24 mpg- so what does that tell you about the newest RAV4?

    The premium for a hybrid goes out the door on the monthly payment.
    You think you’re saving money at the pump, but really the savings begin after the car is paid off.
    The family has a Prius’ and it’s great to see 50 mpg but the monthly payments ain’t that great.

    The Camry Hybrid is very good, the ES 300h is better and averages 47 mpg over 9k miles, and sits in rush hour drives in an out as much as an hour each way.

    The fuel economy isn't great in winter. 25% increase in fuel consumption. It's normal to get 47+ mpg when driving on back roads between 40 and 50 mph in warm weather.

    I had two Toyota hybrids. IMO, the most reliable vehicles on the market. However, I do not recommend owning them after they reach the 150,000 miles. Every part for that vehicle could cost up to 5x than for a part that is in a regular vehicle. So, all the savings you have had for the first 150k will go down the drain very quickly.
    Also, if you drive on highways, the engine noise could be unpleasant. We could not drive the vehicles more than two hours and we were tired. For city driving, it is not an issue, and I am not talking about the Toyota trucks that are hybrids.

    Life of the battery is small and the price of the battery is huge. People need to get off this EV/hybrid train. Bring back the V8, give the option to go ev or hybrid if they want. Let everyone have the option. Politics need to stay out of the auto world.
