- In this video, I have the privilege of reviewing and showing my viewers the first 2023 Toyota RAV4 prime.
And this isn’t just any Toyota RAV4 prime but this is the 2023 XSE technology package which is the complete top-of-the-line RAV4 for 2023! This rav4 comes with every feature that you can think of, available for the RAV4’s!
I also review some of the upgrades and changes in the 2023 Toyota RAV4 primes.

IT'S REALLY NICE BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU TOYOTA COULD SELL A CAR FOR 1 TRILLION DOLLARS THAT STILL HAS CHEAP PLASTIC ALL OVER THE INSIDE.....
Useless video, since you can’t actually purchase one anytime soon.
Whats the point of showing off these vehicles when toyota can't deliver for 2 years..time is money..
Thousands of people myself included put down $1000 deposits for this model vehicle…. Toyota seem unable to deliver…. Meanwhile it seems they are just using people for interest free loans they are obviously making interest profits from. Will they ever deliver this model?
I heard from toyota dealership They won't have new cars till end of 2024
@@saeedamir7250 because Toyota likes to play with customers isn’t that right @ToyotaCanada
Man, all dealerships do that. Lol.
That just F sucks bro lol so if I were to order a toyota sequoia one day a 1000 people or more would be waiting for it lol...
What is the point of this video? Here is heaven but you cannot get there in this life. 🤣
I don't understand what's the point of promoting a vehicle that we cannot get because of wait time of 3 to 4 yrs.
The more absurd thing is - this vehicle is a mass market vehicle. The idea that people are jumping on it as if they'll win the lottery when "theirs" comes to the dealersihp shows you the cult of toyota and the Honda (fanbois) types.
I want one just to so I can prove you don't 💩gold nuggets when you drive a rav4 or a "type R". Gonig to be ordering my sportage hyb. soon. But I must admit, this XSE is a very nice vehilce on paper
Yeah true, 4 years to get one
👍
We can’t even get the Prime RAV4, or the new Prius in Australia
@@rohitnijhawan5281 ikr. This toyota company is Crazy
I don’t care how reliable this vehicle is almost 60k is stupid

Would be nice if it would be actually available to buy!

Toyota is losings millions not being able to meet demand!
60k for this ...wtf about 10k more and get an audi q7, mdx a spec
10 K plus taxes is a big gap. Prime also has a rebate. What’s an mdx a spec … (rhetorical question)
Doesnt matter what changes or how good they are. If theres no availabilty for any toyota model on the dealership. Its pointless
60k...for a Rav4? Beyond stupid. Will stick with our paid for 2020 Hybrid XSE, has 66k well maintained miles on it - its our 4th Rav4 but we will probably move up to the Venza for our next purchase. If Toyota survives the current market...
agree, I have the exact same car in 2021 and it listed for 48.5. I think the dealer put on an extra 10K!
canadian!!!!
60k Cad not US...40ish in USD
I tried to order one in California ,I was told that I might be lucky if I get it in 2024 . And almost all the dealers have more than 10k markup on rav4 Hybrid and prime. I decided to wait until 2024 . 60k ita a lot of money for this car.
I have a rav4 prime on order. Made a $500 deposit. Msrp no markup. From cali also. Shop around. Do not pay over msrp!
@@Tacoexplorer which dealership?
@@Tacoexplorer Why don't you help others by sharing the dealership and maybe even sales person.
@@myytchannel6632 what difference does it make? it's a 9 month wait. if you need a good vehicle, why deal with A-ho toyota sales when you can get other vehicles in the meantime.
In the northeast, some dealerships do have the car. you just have to find them
Actually only few Dealers are not marking their vehicles up .They're selling them on MSRP but they are not taking any deposits right now on Rav4 because they are already behind on delivering them.
too expensive for a toyota, might as well go for a lexus!
If you are spending over 60k for this rav4 you minus well get the new 2023 Lexus rx500 imho.

59K???? no thanks
actually i don't see anything different from 2019 version.
Thank you very much for the video. It's a very nice car but can I get one? I have placed a deposit in May 2020 and my dealer said last week (Dec 2022) that only less than 10 Rav4 Prime were allocated and there are about 1000 people that placed the deposits and waiting. My waiting place is about 70th and should be waiting for at least another 2 to 3 years. I have been a Toyota customer for the past 30 years, but honestly, I am not certain that I will be waiting this time...
Just change your dealer.I promise you’ll get that more sooner.
@@MDRaihan-yk4wn I am in Canada, BC and I have been waiting for some time. Going to a different dealer does not help, just extending the waiting time if I join now.

@@temlixo2497 I understand that situation but I don’t know about Canada,but here in USA in 1 month from new Jersey me and my sister got 2 car.
59к for a new-old Toyota Rav4 ohhaaaa haaa.
In America this vehicle MSRP's out at about $48 to $51K fully loaded and with the "Premium" & Weather Package as the top options...don't think there is a Technology named package option for this vehicle in the US. The Premium Package of this XSE Prime will include the Pano Roof, as well as the JBL upgraded sound system &. larger upgraded screen. Also, will have both heated and Ventilated seats... similar to this vehicle shown.... Got to admit though your pricing of $59,700K is quite steep compared to ours... unless the dealership is up-pricing it for limited market regional value. *This was indeed a good presentation for this vehicle. and I have mine on order (Supersonic Red & Black) for a Late January 2023 dealership delivery here in TX! I currently own the 2019 Rav4 XSE with all available options...great vehicle!!
Where did you order it from? Where in Texas are you? Fellow Texan asking. TIA.
@@socalju2447 I live in Fort Worth TX and am purchasing this vehicle from Family Toyota of Burleson... It will be my second RAV4 from them... Contact Dustin Herndon, the General Manager and tell him "Lynn Allen" sent you. He is a friend of mine and will get you the very best price you can get in TX on a new Toyota, or Rav4...incl the Prime!! It's the best Toyota Dealership in TX by a long shot...
Anything over MSRP is steep. Even paying MSRP is not great. So many people paying over sticker (Thousands +) just shows you how dumb people are with their money. But the good news is those days are coming to an end. All that free scamdemic money is gone and banks are scared. Glad I waited it out to get my XSE at sticker price. No wait list for me. Ohh but I have great credit and a job. The two things that were overlooked when buying a car that was almost doubled in value because of greed. Now the banks are running scared because all those people that got financed who really couldn't afford the car in the first place, and don't care about their credit score just let it go. Now the banks can't even make their money back. Sound familiar? This is just the beginning and my advice is to wait and your patients will be rewarded.
@@socalju2447 I ordered my Rav 4 XSE from Family Toyota of Burleson - Ask for the General Manager Dustin Herndon and tell him Lynn sent you. Bypass the sales team and pay NO upcharge for your vehicle. This dealership doesn't operate like that!
@lynnrallen But if Canadians converted the US price to Canadian dollars, the cost would be much, much higher.
Ya it’s a machine! What’s the likelihood of realistically getting my hands on a vehicle that has a 2 year or more wait to get one. It’s pointless!
60K plus markups for a rav4 LMAOOOOO. Ridiculous.
Nice that Toyota has these, and this technology, but until I can go buy one and drive it off the lot tomorrow, it is not really a car they offer for sale.
Congratulations you have been selected among the lucky winners of my giveaway prize message me to claim your prize🎁
I like this car, but let's get real. With so many sensors around the body, if this vehicle involved a little bumper impact, how much extra cost to fix these things would be a shock.
Head up display, not heads up, completely different meaning! Nice motor, though 🙂
11:06 so the front seats are exactly the same as in 2022 model... toyota does not listen to people - these seats are not suitable for seating at all. They are dramatically uncomfprtable which made me change the car - the RAV4 - after only few months of driving it. ...
It's the exact one I want in the color I want it :) Great review, makes me excited about the "most beautifulest, hottest Rav4 ever built." $59K CAD ~ $43K USD

If you are going on a long trip and you are out of electricity and the engine switches to gas, The Rav4 Prime gas engine can recharge the electricity to 80%. The problem is that most users need help figuring out where to activate that feature. Plus, I don't know of another PHEV that has that feature. That's a big selling point, but I don't understand why Toyota does not promote that feature.
Bro RAV4 prime has amazing tow capacity. I use it to tow my Tesla and once RAV4 prime runs out of charge drive away in my Tesla.
Perhaps the very first 23 Rav4 Prime XSE Tech review is in Canada or NA🤩. Really want to get one, but I may prefer next gen or redesign. If Prius Prime has 50% more EV range, I may expect the next gen Rav4 Prime could go 90km🤔. I am still happy on my 19 gas limited because of its AWD system.
You’re kidding! 59k?
For the price of this one I could purchase two LE’s.
Beautiful SUV. Do you know if the battery chemistry is Lithium Ion Polymer or is it Lithium Ion Phosphate?
Search "Tracks and Trees" channel. It's a female version of Marcello. They are both good looking people. 😍
Muhahahah
Guys because of Silicon Valley bank closure, Toyota US had a lot of orders for RAV4 prime cancelled. As a result all the Rav4 primes have been shipped to Ontario, Canada . Every Toyota dealer has atleast 20 RAV4 primes sitting in their parking lot and have to sell them at steep discount. Go grab yours today from a Toyota dealership near you.
This is as bad as the new Prius Prime. No head room.
theyre just so so so hard to find in the
limited model
With this update, Toyota addressed the most common criticism of the Rav4: dated infotainment. I'm not sure if Android auto is wireless as stated.
$59,000? I have the exact same car in 2021...same interior, same everything and it listed for $48,500. Hard to believe they increased the price by 10K...have to assume you have added a premium price at your dealership?
59k Canadian, approx 51k
USA!!!!
@@digjoeyt 59k Canadian is equal to $43,070 US. 59,000 X .73 = 43,070
We were one of the lucky ones who were able to purchase this 2023 Toyota Rav4 Prime plug-in hybrid XSE. What we got is exactly the same in color, features & appearance except that the one we got has no panoramic sunroof though we have the regular sunroof & ours do not have HUD. The reason why we do not have these particular features is we cannot pick & choose what we want & what not to put in this particular vehicle. But overall, we are so happy with this purchase !
Corazon Nieto De La Rosa........did YOU HAVE TO ORDER IT,and where are you located?
May I ask how much you ended up getting for out the door ?
I have been in line since 2020 Nov… that $1k down payment is interest free loan for Toyota at this point. My dealer said they’d call me in 2025… but I’ll wait. Eventually it’ll join my family, hopefully while the kids are still young lol
Too expensive for that price i can get a mercedes
The XSE tech package also adds a height adjustable passenger seat and 1500w 120v outlet in the back.
Most beautifulest? Too funny.
Hi nice review just want to ask please province of alberta getting any rav4 prime 2023 models . What is the price of rav4 prime se thanks
Guy talks about this economy vehicle like it's a Bently Bentayga. The only thing that impressed me is the fact that someone is spending $65k on this.
Looks awesome for sure. Did Toyota ever repair the hi voltage cable connection problem, especially in conditions in climates with snow and salt on the roads accelerating the connection problem ,with a replacement cost of approx $7000 to replace it. I hope Toyota has found a fix to this expensive problem!
Nice car but the interior is dreadful!! The screen is awkwardly stuck on top of dash which is a huge distraction! The seats look like something you’d find in an arcade room!, it looks like a 1960s attempt of future cars! Terrible!! The Tucson 2023 although I’m not mad about the exterior but they certainly got the screen/dash integration perfect! Really amazing interior … had it not been for that I was considering the RAV4
Yes Toyota have extended the warranty on that issue! Up to 160k
@@gobrad hehe I never had such a screen and I think the same as you but I'm on multiple owner groups and it does not seem to bother anyone so ;) also kinda agree on the seat looking cheap but well, it's not like I will be looking at them much .. overall I think the interior is fine, it looks clean and simple overall .. for the look and space, I would go with Kia Telluride but well, plug in hybrid ftw ;)
@@gobrad, for a Toyota I think the interior is fine. For a better look and more advanced interior, - Toyota can always offer Lexus as a luxury option.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like the interior. The tablet mounted on the dash is the norm these days
LOL !! 59K plus tax ! LOL for a RAV 4 ? LOL
Think more of what do you get for the car and not the name tag on it
Taking orders for 2028 now!🤣
That is almost exactly the car I want right now.
You can dream about it, It won't be available till 2024
@@saeedamir7250 Nope, they are being delivered in USA east coast NOW!!!
2-3 yr wait time for this! Just BS…just get another vehicle then not worth the wait!
To be clear with you here in canada they stopped taking order for this model
@@saeedamir7250 Yep, but that don't mean that customers that have placed a deposit 1.5-2 years ago won't get theirs this year. In fact, some here in QC have received them
Nice job. It's got to be one of the first 2023 Rav4 Primes (XSE with Technology Package) on UA-cam!
Got my Windchill Pearl w/ midnight black roof '23 XSE with Premium Package, this past week. Very classy look. I wanted the 2023 as it's fairly refined / mostly bug free. I heard it might be re-designed fro 2024. I try to avoid buying the first three years after a re-design because that's when they work bugs and small issues out.
What state/dealership did you get it from? Did you have to put down a deposit and wait? And was there any markup?
@@HelluhKwin I got mine from a SoCal Toyota dealer. Put down a $1000 deposit. There was a $4k markup. I only waited three weeks.

@@russdennis7026 Wanted the vehicle and couldn't wait a year or more for one. Not ready for a BEV yet.
Hi, thanks for your great videos. I just received my 2023 rav4 prime Xse and I was wondering what setting I need to set my car to get the maximum heat in very cold weather. I’d like to hear any tips or tricks to max out the heating because so for I’m not to impressed, but that could be me😅.
Thanks
This car is nice. But winds noise… 😅
Whoever who thought at Toyota that the bonnet hood should end too soon and not flush in with the top edge of the front grill so it leaves that conspicuous gap line across the front should rethink it I believe. A design flaw that ruins the looks of their cars.
agreed. other manufacturers like Subaru are following this trend too unfortunately.

What about the Guy that HATES all sunroofs/moonroofs..??????........................Paul
It is too much expensive compared to other three raws SUV we can find in global cars market, taking into account that there are other vehicles like Toyota Prime that can provide us with more technology, performance, and security, with less price than you need to buy a toyota prime. For instance I have not yet been able to see the first 3 raws seats toyota cars in any market's vehicle around the world, however Toyota alsway is present in eqquiping Toyota Prime with a 7-8 touchscreen in the center console and cluster in order not to equippe a bigger touchscreen. There are a lot of compact SUV in the world market having better motorization, performance, and a beautiful interior cars configuration adjustment than we can see in toyota cars, most of them are not confortable, so I hope Toyota makes important modern change in toyota cars so to be sold by a cheap price. Thank you.
Well... after waiting for a year or more to trade in my 2019 Rav4 XSE Premium for the XSE Prime I finally gave up and ended up jumping up to the new 2023 bZ4X Limited AWD All-Electric Vehicle. Roughly the same price point...maybe a couple grand more, not sure. Drives like a dream with the upgraded JBL sound system, heated and ventilated seats, and duel pano-screened roof? Gets about 240 miles per charge, Toyota gives you one full year of free charging @ the EVgo charge stations.
It's much quieter and faster (electric torque) than my old Rav 4 XSE and overall a very comfortable ride. The XSE's with full tech package was just too hard to get down here in TX... so just went all electric instead....!!
panoramic sun roof =boring,.......door stuff is boring.........parking sensor is cool..........wheels boring.........suboofer in back.........why??.......heads up display........annoying..........3 languages only........what about german language........saftey pkg 2.5.......you said nothing about it..,.,....heated leather stearing........useless.
The federal tax credit can no longer be used towards this vehicle.
I would have appreciated seeing the folding side mirrors in use.. I assume they are still manual only and have not been automated? More detail and time on to passenger seat features, and I would have liked to have seen the rear adjustable cargo liner compartment. More specifically the sound dampening used on the liner.
Is it sold?
And delivered.
"What do you guys think?"
I think it's ridiculous that Toyota bothers teasing supposed vehicles no-one can actually purchase because they can't pull their collective heads far enough out of their asses to actually _make_ any of the things.
You asked. Repeatedly.
And yet, .... ZERO front passenger seat lumber adjustment!!!
WHY???
Additionally, zero A/C seat cooling ..
i've been waiting for this video for months!! well and i'm also waiting the Toyota rav4 limited 🤣...

The purple background color of the multi-information display really sucks. I hope it can be changed by the driver.
I was going to buy a 2013 427 vette, but chose the 2024 rav prime xse w/tech package.
I have a 2024 Prime arriving in March hope it’s as good or better than my 2020 XSE Hybrid
Nothing really impresses me about this year. The only think that I like about all the features is the digital dash. Otherwise my 20 rav4 xle premium I believe is just as good as this.
Yes good review but he goes on and on about features that aren’t cutting edge or even common on most cars these days. Nice car, I’d really like one
Congratulations you have been selected among the lucky winners of my giveaway prize message me to claim your prize🎁
I own this car the upgraded tech makes a huge difference.
I'm just curious as to what brand the rear bumper protector is at the 3:40 mark. Is it an oem part? I have this exact vehicle, same pkg and color, but does not have that item. I'm in USA if that matters.
You sell these and cant use the foot activator for the trunk. Please let toyota know they need a better sensor. My 22 prime opens 1 out of 10 times using the foot sensor
I dont like the cruise control buttons. I always accidentally press the stop button when I intend to increase the speed then I panic 😂
I wouldn’t consider the screen and dash appealing at all in this car… The car itself is nice, but the idea of the screen stuck on top of the dash is messy and distracting to say the least
Wish someone would buy this car for me 🥺.
3-year waiting list.
No doubt it is a great car but no way anyone with live brain cells would pay the dealer a 3-4k mark up, not only that but buyers are paying a higher markup and flying in from another state to get it
Exactly. People are not smart and throwing away money down the drain! You have to remember you still have to put tax on that markup.
pretty sure in canada, it's illegal to markup MSRP ;) it only happens in the US.
@@mikejang you're correct.... it's illegal to sell over MSRP in Canada. A lot of people have the big bucks in the USA to pay the mark up.

Not much leg room for the passengers. I'm disappointed Toyota.
Already a facelift model but have never seen the prime in our country yet, not even hybrids, other countries lucky to have availability of this model
Registered to buy in 2021. Today (2+ years later) they said its here LOL
we love our 2021 venza hybrid but there is no way we will keep any new hybrid after warranty, too complex and expensive to repair
Japanese cars the best , others : Advice them to change the job , its better.
Imagine if Toyota shipped more than a total of 5 of them to Manitoba. People might actually get to purchase one.
Yep 5 year or longer wait in Manitoba. Pretty sure that’s everywhere though
In ontario 2 years waiting
Congratulations you have been selected among the lucky winners of my giveaway prize message me to claim your prize🎁
If you move to Arctic , they give you a RAV4 prime free next day as moving bonus. From Manitoba, you are not far from Arctic. Just a suggestion to get the RAV4 prime without wait times
For that price, might as well get a Volvo XC60 hybrid
In a hindsight, I'm glad they are making us wait. I couldn't live with myself if I got that crappie 2022 dash and multimedia. That's the only good thing about this waiting.
Yeah I'm kinda sad I didn't wait. I ended up getting the hybrid xse no packages 🥺
I'm super happy to not be using my 07 tundra as a daily driver anymore, but man I wish I had held out.
I got an update from my dealer, my early 2022 order got bumped to 4+ years lol. I'm leaving my order in but I'll be looking for other brands.
You said 59k. Just curious to how that got that high. I went on Toyotas website and clicked the premium package, same color, and added every accessory provided for the 2023 and it came to $52600. Is this dealer markup?
Or is that CAD? I’m USD so that could be the difference.
I wish Toyota would at least offer the HUD or the non-prime RAV4's.
You’re not missing out on much honestly. It’s just a gimmick
@@dino91001 I agree..... I wouldn't pay extra for that feature either.
Ought I don't like paddle shifters. Is there one that don't have those?
Dealers are a den of thieves, especially the finance dept.
60k gets you a fairly loaded Audi Q5
rav4 > q5 ... you get more space, better fuel economy, cheaper to repair, faster acceleration, owner satisfaction is higher, better headlights and braking rating is better according to Consumer Reports, etc.
I don't like the screen sticking up on dash like that
I stopped the video as soon ge revealed the MSRP.
“Breathtaking” vehicle with a breathtaking price.
$59,700! Are you kidding me?
$59k??? 😂😂 You saying this is way better than my 22 4runner Pro at $54k?
I can't speak about the pro version but well, according to ConsumerReports, rav4 prime has : much much better fuel economy, faster acceleration, better routine handling, better emergency handling, slightly better climate system and slightly better interior fit and finish, etc ... the only advantages for the 4runner are : off road, more cargo space, more towing capacity, slightly better headlights ... in the end, the Prime advantages better fits my priorities ... this being said I really like how it looks ;)
I hate that I can’t find one anywhere near me smh.
Its an eCVT, the paddle shifters may be for break regeneration intensity?
Yes, the paddle shifters are for brake regen
@@rrrrrrrr1036 Nope. They're not. Do some research.
@@staceygliatis5812 The manual literally says so. Go "do some research."
