One thing Caco possess that no other car reviewers have in the world : The ability to explain the aesthetics of the car with weird but somewhat make sense kind of imagination 🤣🤣
You’re seeing Hybrid RAV4s take over the world. 40+ mpg, it’s a perfect automobile appliance. A lot of the Taxi drivers in NYC use them exclusively. It’s a no brainer.
Good to see Hybrid car variant in the Philippines is on the rise. Hybrid system was introduced across in almost all car brands here in Europe 10 years ago. And it’s good to see it is now making its way in the Philippines. But, the price in the Philippines is way too high considering hybrid system is already a matured technology.
@Caco Great video as always. I got my 2023 RAV4 last May 13, 2023, after a long wait. It’s fun to drive although I have a few observations, which I would like to get your opinion on: 1. I'm at 926km to date. Is it normal that my hybrid battery is not charging fully or at least halfway, it is usually in the 2nd or 3rd block only. 2. My fuel consumption is high, not what I expected from a Toyota hybrid. I am averaging 12km/ltr mixed city and highway. My expectation (before I purchased this vehicle), it should be near the 18km/ltr mark. Will this still improve in the long run? My daily travel is 70km except weekends.
Yup. They always find a way to shortchange you. Look at the interior of the Hilux and its tech features. You're getting way less for its price. That's why I have strong reservations in buying a Toyota and instead opted to buy a Mazda.
Even with the base variant its still expensive (for me). If I want a Hybrid system, and a Toyota, with that kind of money, I'd go with the Toyota Corolla Cross. That comes in at just 1.8m (that's already the GR-S variant). I now have at least 300k to spare that I can use for upgrades
If you are not a fan of sunroof I think the corolla cross hybrid is a much better choice. The price difference didn't justified the interior upgrades and additional tech features. And the infotainment system of this rav4? Unbelievable for it's price range.
@@jflrck141 I agree. This is in a different category with a bigger 4-cylinder engine, more horsepower, and yet much more fuel efficient and spacious than many of those subcompacts out there. The price is justified IMO and is actually class-competitive versus the CX5 and the Forester.
i must commend Caco , for i have notice , that his fashion sense is greatlly evolving tht he's achieving the conyo cool guy look , plus of course his excelent review of the cars at hand ,,, keep up d good work sir
That huge bezel infotainment display is only reason why I don't own Rav4 hybrid yet. Still hasn't grown on me after few years, and simply can't stand looking at it. Will wait til new NX350h's display on Rav4.
2.5m with a heated seat is a bummer plus the infotainment looks like it's below 1m Category but everything is great. Toyota with dvd player. Oh please it's not what we need. Cherry tiggo pro 8 phev is much better.

@@AntiJEVsInPH And if u wanna know, in here (Indonesia) the price mid variant of Santa Fe is cheaper than CRV top trim or RAV4 Hybrid (it just because RAV4 just available in AWD).

Can't wait for you to do a driving impression and wheel review of the hyundai tucson. 🇵🇭🎉 For sure, with the price even with the hybrid of tucson, RAV4 will just be a 2nd option.
Kmusta po driving experience? Fuel consumption? Maintenance, may naging problem na po ba related sa hybrid system? Planning of getting our first hev kasi.
I own the 2020 Rav4 XLE Hybrid and I can tell you if you use ECO mode + dynamic cruise ON or light use of your right foot will give you 21.7 km/L or higher as it will barely use the gas engine going forward plus the stop and go traffic keeps the battery recharged.
Dito sikat na sikta yan sa tibay at tipid mga taxi dito yan ang gamit at mas mura ang imaontain,wala yang timing belt,no clutch,no ac compressor,at madami pa ang maintenance daw talaga lang nyan eh change oil at check sa mga electric parts at dito ung battery nya 200,000 kms or 10 years warranty.kaya if ever na installment ung sasakyan nang 7 years kampante ka padin.The best yan.
I'm planning to buy next year po and I'm considering Rav4 Hybrid vs Hyundai's IONIQ 5. What do you think will be a better option po? I don't go out that often but we do long trips especially pag bakasyon lang (around March-May. Thank you po sa opinions and insights!
I'd like to know the water wading capability of this car. How would it perform on flood infested roads of the Philippines. How much it cost to maintain/repair the hybrid system (if needed).
Toyota PH is selling this just for the sake of having a compact contender. But it seems that they don't push this much as they don't want to hurt the sales of the more popular Fortuner. Even Suzuki's version of the RAV4, the Across, is better equipped.
can't exactly get an electrified Fortuner with double-digit fuel economy in EDSA standstill just yet. The Rav4 has quite a number of bells and whistles the Fortuner does not. In that case, this is an attractive car for a segment of buyers.
I dont know why the interior still the same old design even the infotainment.. i wish they could improved more.. But i love how it looks on the outside..
I actually pressed the like tab on your comment but when I reflected more on it, I guess that dvd player ain't so bad at all. It would have been more amusing if it came equipped with a built-in pager; you never know what message you might have missed reading back in the late 90s, it might have been important.
I thought, it should be AWD not front wheel drive due to 2 motors for hybrid. One is in front and the other is in the back. I own one. Kindly check on that or the info I got might be wrong. Also, its not leather seats as you mentioned. They are called softex seats. Looks like leather but synthetic. Camry use real leathers, dont know why.
Even in Indonesia, the Hybrid version just available in AWD. If u want just FWD and fuel economy u can go with Corolla Cross, and if u want more grip just buy a RAV4
He is a little confused about how it operates. The hybrid electric motor is not what is keeping the car cool. The air conditioner compressor is run by its own electric motor. Also, the service brakes are not involved at all in electric regeneration. They are used when regeneration is not sufficient to slow or stop the car
the benefits of this system will pay off in the future since we don't have the infrastructure for full ev vehicles. my only qualm is it is a front wheel drive car, I prefer a rear wheel drive
I don't really like the audio system because it is too small for the price. The passenger seat is just even manual adjust and yes, the seat heater is kinda useless
we have this car here in Sydney, the hybrid is very good on traffic and down hill but not on long drives. And we do not have that bulky DVD player here. Is it AWD? we bought ours AWD hybrid for $50,000 or 1.9M pesos. Why so expensive in PH?

You sound like a boring auto journalist.
We live in a third world country that has higher than first world taxes. Probably why so many people here want to run for public office.
Finally, I’ve been waiting since forever for a proper review of 2022 RAV4 Hybrid in PH. Thank you AUTODEAL!
that rav2’s screen is so futuristic, if you’re in the 80’s.
I was about to comment on that but yeah, what a shame even the cameras 😅 everything else is great though
hahahaa
a CRT infotainment system.. hehe
Piss off gen z
For 2.4M, that infotainment is an insult.
Get a Subaru Outback
Second row space reminds me of 3rd Gen CRV. Nice! The price though makes the Corolla Cross Hybrid a lot more attractive. But that’s just me.
@Caco Great video as always. I got my 2023 RAV4 last May 13, 2023, after a long wait. It’s fun to drive although I have a few observations, which I would like to get your opinion on:

Most of the Rav4 HEV's in the Market are AWD, boggles the mind as to how a TOTL is still 4x2. Toyota PH at their best
Yup. They always find a way to shortchange you. Look at the interior of the Hilux and its tech features. You're getting way less for its price. That's why I have strong reservations in buying a Toyota and instead opted to buy a Mazda.
classic toyota philippine moves
@@Dongzzzzzz but did you hear about the upcoming 2023 vios it looks stunning
I read this comment and I might buy ford instead
We know what's next! Comparo of Fortuner GR and this RAV HEV. Identical prices! You guys deserve more subs.
I literally just searched for this. Uploaded just a few moments ago, perfect timing.
If the BZ4X doesn't come to the PH, this RAV4 will be my second contender.
Ioniq or EV6 ftw
Even with the base variant its still expensive (for me). If I want a Hybrid system, and a Toyota, with that kind of money, I'd go with the Toyota Corolla Cross. That comes in at just 1.8m (that's already the GR-S variant). I now have at least 300k to spare that I can use for upgrades
You know what would be great? An operations cost comparison particularly fuel cost savings with a comparably priced vehicle.
This car loves throwback, imagine that DvD player📀💿
If you are not a fan of sunroof I think the corolla cross hybrid is a much better choice. The price difference didn't justified the interior upgrades and additional tech features.
And the infotainment system of this rav4? Unbelievable for it's price range.
Seriously? Corolla cross is very slow!!
It’s crazy how binabarat tayo ng Toyota. Ang Corolla Cross nga sa Australia big screen na.

I'd go for the Mazda CX-5 anytime.

Video suggestion. List of relatively cheap cars with ventilated seats and/or sunroof. Pwede din yung hybrid cars.
please make a comparison between 2022 rav4 vs 2022 subaru forester
2.5m with a heated seat is a bummer plus the infotainment looks like it's below 1m Category but everything is great. Toyota with dvd player. Oh please it's not what we need.
Cherry tiggo pro 8 phev is much better.
yes only 2.4m equipped with Sony speaker system

I never doubted trading with Mrs karen after seeing her POT (PROOF OF TRADES) i made good profits tho, i hope to make more
@Saanvi Durga I thought I'm the only one that knows her well I guess her good reputations speaks for her now.
Oh what a nice review! This will be really fuel efficient since its a hybrid or gas and a FWD.
Just curious. Which Drive Mode did u use when u test drive the vehicle to Tarlac and back to reach 18.5km/L. Tnx
add microphone foam/windscreen in your mic I can hear the wind when you are outside
great vid always
thank you so much for this,,,been waiting your review of this crossover,,,love it!!!!!

Lets goo i've been waiting for this
Petition for Autodeal to give him an award: Caco "Not the Biggest Person on the Planet" Tirona. :D
I'd like to know the water wading capability of this car. How would it perform on flood infested roads of the Philippines. How much it cost to maintain/repair the hybrid system (if needed).
Cleaning the air filter of hybrid is the only maintenance. It's almost maintenance free. If the battery died you can still use the car.
Price almost 2.2M for XLE variant but the side mirror is not power folding oh come on Toyota.
XLE and Limited trim? Parang USDM lang... hope that it not the "watered=down" XLE and Limited Trims unlike the USDM RAV4s that evem comes with TSS..
How come autodeal doesn't have behind the wheel review of the all new CR-V?
Not interested in cars, but I find Caco… interesting. Heheh!! Good job po sa reviews, so entertaining!
Classic Toyota moves. DVD player is just a wasted cost at this point
Hi Mr Caco can you plz give review also for Chevrolet Groove.. thanks.
Ang HEV engine of Toyota ba ay need parati ginagamit para ma charge ang battery?
Fortuner g and rav4 are the best looking front facia for me. super slick

Would the car stall if it runs out of gas?
how does it run in flooded areas?

how long the battery life's span last?
I dont know why the interior still the same old design even the infotainment.. i wish they could improved more.. But i love how it looks on the outside..
how different is this from the cross? seemed like "aesthetics-wise" they look the same.
Interior is same as corolla 12th gen
Is there a discount now for hybrid or electric cars after the passage of the ev law?
"Hunt For Red October" for the AC controls😀😀😀 Could the radio controls be for "Hunt For Mini Red October"?
Comparo between this and Corolla Hybrid Cross, please!
When will you do a full comparison with test drives?
How much is the range for driving its full EV mode?
Nice and detailed content, thanks for sharing this video, the first to make a review of the RAV4 Hybrid, finally, good job AUTODEAL 👍
2.5M and you get a horrible infotainment system?? Who uses DVD nowadays?? Come on TOYOTA!!

DVD and heated seats are features you have to pay but you won't use. Sadly..
Are all RAV4s 4WD???
I don't really like the audio system because it is too small for the price. The passenger seat is just even manual adjust and yes, the seat heater is kinda useless
Is there a video comparo for Toyota Fortuner and Toyota Highlander? 😊
we have this car here in Sydney, the hybrid is very good on traffic and down hill but not on long drives. And we do not have that bulky DVD player here. Is it AWD? we bought ours AWD hybrid for $50,000 or 1.9M pesos. Why so expensive in PH?
tax and import fees, i think.
I agree this car is very expensive in the Philippines @ 2.6M pesos. Here in the UK, that same RAV4 hybrid variant is price at £32,000 or 2.2M pesos.
Hello Caco. I drive a 2005 Escape Hybrid. I'd love you to see and drive it, as it is like a rolling time capsule.
Is Rav4 really very noisy?
wow good timing been interested on this since forever
Forever? Its a 2022 model 😂
Ioniq5(🇮🇩) EV6 FTW✌️.
BZ4X is cramped, outdated, poor design and ugly engineers and designers. no glovebox
I was excited for the prospect of making this our next car but that price 😬😬😬
Don't bother it's not worth the money considering the specs, design and tech you got. A lot of option nowadays.
dude they need to sell the awd version. they did that before but removed it. also they could bring back the v6.
🔥🔥🔥
instead of making the wheels 19s, they opted for heated seats? that's unnecessary for most of us. their marketing is really kinda dumb.
Wait, the infotainment system has a.... CD player?
Comparo with Mitsubishi PHEV, Chery Tiggo 8 Pro PHEV, and this one
Can you make a comparison between this and the corolla cross hybrid please
i personally like that cd player 💿
love the shirt!
