No, that's... alright. Nice for a car this large, but compared to smaller hybrids, it's nothing crazy. Besides, I wonder what would your reaction be to 94 MPG of the RAV4 Prime lol

The 2019 Toyota RAV4 is the most beautiful RAV4 created by Toyota. I like the spacious and comfortable interior of the RAV4. I like the big trunk of the RAV4 that has a lot of space.
I like this look better It's sporty yet refined when you have the right color combination to give it that feminine finish. From a bland car to come up with such a design improvement that's full of personality...I'm impressed.
I did have the previous model to this as a company hire car for about 4 months last year. It was 2.5 petrol hybrid and for the size of car it is pretty fast when you have it in Sport mode. It was 100% reliable and I grew to love it, the only thing that was really bad was the infotainment and satnav which were SO slow. iT looks like this new version has a better system though so that is good news. I just wish it was a few grand cheaper as its out of my budget when I come to request my own company car. Mine was black with black alloys and it looked awesome.
You can't fault the RAV4, an absolute great SUV for everyone~ It's no wonder this is one of Toyota's bestsellers. I have a 2021 RAV4, and it's miles better than the previous generation one I had from 2017. Nonetheless, any RAV4 is going to be a good one.
Think you answered your own question about the brakes there mate. First part of braking engages the inverter. Thats why you get a sound when you braking abnormally
One of the main selling points is its reliability, I’ve been looking for an suv hybrid, but although I like the styling of the C5 Aircross, I wouldn’t buy another French car again, too many niggling issues (c4 Cactus owner) this car looks great, reliable, practical and has a decent warranty.
Its design looks like it should be tougher than it probably is. I thought the infotainment screen, in terms of its buttoned and design, looked like something out of the 80’s.
The RAV and Honda CRV is always in the top 3 suv's every year. But the Honda is cheaper then the Rav when all the features are equal, like 4wd. Id go for the Honda
That 'drilling-sound' is the compressor responsible for the break pressure, When you press the brake pedal like a moron 5 times, it needs to refill the system with pressure :)
@carwow Can’t believe you didn’t comment on the missing adjustable height for passenger seat. And worse than the missing through loading for skis is the missing cargo safety net between the boot and the back seat! Scandal!
I think it's 55 kilometers per gallon or about 34mpg. The best I am getting in my 2021 rav4 hybrid is about 30mpg from driving in a flat midwestern US state with no leadfoot or jackrabbit start or acceleration.
@@Chitown388 we do miles per gallon in the UK, though it is the larger imperial gallon, not the US Gallon. if it was KM, it would be litres per 100 kilometres.
For me I calculate there’s a 2000-3000 saving per year the rav4 has over my current car. This includes savings in fuel, insurance and servicing. Over an ownership period of 7 years this’ll pay for the changeover plus I’ll be ahead with the residual value of the vehicle. So saving money is one reason people get this car. The product is compelling because I can’t remember the last time the “performance” model was hybrid. From standstill the instant torque from the electric engine makes the car “feel” pretty quick.

I've taken 2 test drives of the Rav now. The noise under acceleration isnt great but watch how quickly it went from 50-70mph (4 seconds). 30-70 is sub 7 seconds. Its quick. That and good economy and interior space, and for floods it can wade 50cm (officially rated). Its great!

The noïse the car makes when you pump the brakes is actually some pumps that equalizes the oil that goes in your brakes after you’ve pumped it all
