As to Eco / Normal / Sport mode. I followed the "Car Car Nut"'s advise and use Normal around town which helps get to speed quicker so you can maintain. Eco on the highway where you really can't tell a difference and Sport when merging onto a heavy traffic highway. I discovered he is right, my mileage actually went up using Normal in town.
Congratulations on your new car. Well done! It looks amazing. Your thought process for buying the car was spot on; extremely practical and luxurious at the same time. Well done for acknowleding your father's help with the buying process. He must be very proud of you.
Congratulations!! I just traded my 2019 RAV4 Hybrid XSE in last week for a 2021. I love it!! My 2019 was the same color as yours. The 2021 I just got is the silver sky metallic.
I traded it in because they offered me $6000 more than what I owed on it!! Plus the 2021 I purchased has other packages that my 2019 didn't have. My 2021 has the weather package...the advanced technology package...the panoramic moonroof and it came with the LED fog lights. And now I get the 2 yr/25000 mile Toyota care maintenance with the purchase...I had just started having to pay for the maintenance on my 2019. I also got a lower interest rate at my credit union on this loan. It was a win win situation.
Congratz on your RAV4! These things are super nice and the button above your lane departure alert is to control the distance between you and the car in front of you with adaptive radar cruise control on, not your pre collision system. Your PCS is already turned on and if you wanted to turn it off, you would have to go to your vehicle settings
Wha a wonderful vlog! I am in the process of buying a new car and I was considering a RAV4; but I wanted an in-depth car tour. Your tour is the best one I’ve seen so far as you showed all the details I wanted. Thank you so much.😊👍
@@vijalpancholi1689 they definitely are 😬 I was only able to get it because of my trade in since used cars are so much right now too. Hopefully prices will go down soon 😂
I have ordered the Adventure Hybrid. Arrives in May or June 2022. Unsure if USA is getting that trim level. Safari green. Semi similar to the limited trim, but with an adventure feel. And for anyone reading this reply, only use a high quality portable battery jump starter on a hybrid vehicle if your battery is flat. Never leads from one vehicle to another.
I went on the car gurus website and found it that way! It was a long journey because they’re so expensive right now but it helped me to find one locally a few times and most of them seemed to have the same features!
I am in the same boat with my 2017 Corolla, it’s terrible in the winter. I have an appointment next Monday to see about trading it in for a 2020 RAV4 in lunar rock color!! I’m so excited I’ve never wanted a car so bad!!
Congrats! and great review, I have the exact same 2021 Rav4 XSE Hybrid but mines in Magnetic Gray Metallic, I love it they are great cars and very fun to drive. Enjoy!
Great presentation! Greetings from a fellow youtuber. Thank you for sharing all the specifications in a cool and calm demeanor. That was very impressive. You are a youtube material and I wish you all the best. I love hard working folks and you deserve this awesome car. Could you please tell me how much you ended up paying for this car (excluding the taxes and title fee)? Was it more than MSRP $34750? Keep it up and stay blessed 👍
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. ☺️ I don’t remember exactly off the top of my head and I don’t have the paperwork with me right now but yes it was more than that. Closer to $40,000. It was scary purchasing a pricey vehicle but it’s saved me so much in gas already!
Mine was a little over 40k but I don’t remember the exact amount right now, sorry! It varies a lot though. Every dealership has their own markups. This one was marked up almost 8k and we talked them down to almost no markup at all. They might be going down in price now that the chip shortages aren’t as bad
Just a note maybe watch out for leakage near the roof rail during heavy rains? Previous models used rubber washer and plugs to seal the holes for the roof rack and some models have reported leaks after a while. Hope they changed the design this year....
I want one 🥺 I’m in between deciding to reserve a 22’ in magnetic Grey but these markup prices are so high. I’m hoping they’ll also give me more for my 14’ Camry se to trade in.
Im looking for the same exact model right now in Canada. They said its going to take about 4 month to get one. I cant wait to get one ! :) First time I see one of your video, you are really pretty ;)
@@AlyssaLuceroPhoto haha ok😀 In mine eav4 it beeps also in the back. My aunt hates bicycle helmets and fastening in back seats. But she has no choice and must fasten otherwise it chimes loudly for 1.5 minutes🤪😄
Congratulations! I live in Mexico City and I am on the list for a Rav4 Hybrid, but I have not been able to get into one, so I want to ask you if your passenger seat has power or manual controls to move it up and down? Thanks!

@@JustinS1981 sounds like part of the reason I wanted to trade in my Corolla ☺️ I was like, might as well if I have to pay for services now 😂
I bought this exact Rav XSE but in the magnetic grey. Just waiting on delivery ☺️ super excited now after watching your video!!
How exciting!! I LOVE it! I know you will too!!☺️
How long did your delivery take?? I'm considering picking one up!

I want this exact car! There’s so many things I’ve learned just by reading about it. Congrats on your purchase!
Thank you so much! I hope you’re able to get it soon😁
@@AlyssaLuceroPhoto I hope so too! I’m just waiting for the car market to die down a little. Prices are crazy right now! 😅

@@AlyssaLuceroPhoto Hi from NZ. Enjoy the vehicle please.
I've been looking for this exact car with these exact packages for the last 2 months , very lucky !

Thank you for making this video! I'm excited to get mine this December! Your Rav is a beaut!

Congratulations! And this video was very helpful. How’s the sound system on this one?
Thank you! I love it☺️ I think it’s really cool that there’s a big JBL speaker in the trunk so you can tailgate and play music if you want
Hi Allysa, I really like your car, how much did you pay for it out of the door?
Did you pay over the MSRP?
How long you had this suv and how many seatbelts for your friends in your suv and I love your suv ❤❤❤
I have the exact same car in the exact same color, does yours make a really weird sound when in reverse?
Yes! Haha I think it’s just because it’s a hybrid
Hey what kind of things do the dealers take advantage of? Im looking to buy the same car but 2022. Its my first time buying from a dealer.
I would love to have a RAV4 Hybrid, but I don't think I can get rid of my gas guzzling 4 Runner.

Thank you, and congrats to you as well! 😁 that’s awesome, I hope you love it!!

Does the car comes with two keyless key ? Or just one ?
I got two!

Still a beautiful car to this very day.
I love it!
This is really helpful, thanks!
Yay I’m glad!☺️
I like your vids😊
Does it chimes when someone dont want to wear belts in the backseat of the car?
Thank you!☺️ no it doesn’t. I think that’s because a lot of people transport items and things other than people in their back seats haha
@@AlyssaLuceroPhoto haha ok😀

Thank you! It is manual for the passenger seat
@@AlyssaLuceroPhoto but you can move it up and down?
WOW She's beautiful.
Cool.
Nice video. How in the world did you only pay $500 for a $3500 package option? (i.e the pano roof w/ weather pkg) Dad must be in the mafia lol
The $500 was just for the panoramic roof! The weather package is broken down in other parts haha ☺️ thank you!
Your teeth are gorgeous
Thank you!(:
Getting a hybrid is a whole new thing... I've left mine on haha but it's a prius and nobody wants it.!!! ha
They want that catalytic converter though
