I feel like I waited 2yrs for it to come out. When I heard the dear wasn't that comfortable it made me think twice about it. Now I'm looking at the highlander hybrid.
Regarding the RAV4, I’m 5’3” with shorter legs. Having the driver’s seat forward enough for my legs in the ‘22 and ‘23 RAV4 put the door window controls on the driver’s door in an awkward position for my hands to reach, having to pull my forearm back. The driver’s door controls in the ‘22 Highlander are angled upwards and positioned a bit differently, so I didn’t have this issue with it, nor with the Venza. Something you might want to pay attention to if you’re a shorter driver.
I was happy to see the Venza at number 3. Very surprised you ranked it above Lexus. I have always been a Lexus person. However, I couldn’t find any hybrid Lexus SUVs.. I found the 2023 Venza Limited, however, it is a great Segway between the two.. it offers the about the same luxury as Lexus with a Toyota price. I tried the RAV4. I did not like the boxiness or the cheap materials but it is a great buy. Even though you’re sacrificing on cargo space with the Venza, it is a great SUV and works for my family. Since purchasing in February, I have had a chance to try a RX and a NX and still feel you get better value for the money with the Venza. Same options in the NX Luxury is $15k more then the Venza.
Love your videos, always to the point . That said , I am not sure Rav4 hybrid should be the first choice , its reliable, yes , its good hybrid system , yes , but its painful to drive with very high cabin noise decibel. Engine is noisy and cabin not insulated at all . Good luck having a conversation while driving . i would rather go with lexus RX350h , as best value !
Did you try the Venza? That should be the #1 from all relevant indicators POV: reliability, TCO, longevity, safety, comfort, safety, economy, quality/price ratio etc.
It's not a no brainer to me. The RAV4 is a great car but it is about $6,000 more than the Corolla Cross and it is due for a re-style soon. The Cross is a new design. Plus the Corolla Cross has the most recent hybrid design and the RAV4 still uses the old design. The Cross is slightly smaller and more maneuverable and easier to park but still has plenty of interior cargo room.
Because of your video, I bought 2022 Highlander hybrid and we absolutely love it. We have new born and we feel so safe driving her around. Also the gas mileage is something I always brag about
We love our Venza Limited. At the time we got it (Aug 21), it was a nicer interior than the NX and felt more updated. And was more affordable, got better gas mileage and was quieter. Two years on, we are still averaging around 6 - 6.3 L/100km. The size is perfect for use, it is stylish and we love the Blueprint blue colour. Just wish we could have got the tan interior.
I am looking to get the RAV4 Hybrid, and have put money down on it. I ordered the Pearl White with the light tan interior. I am hoping I won't have to wait a year for it!!!
The nickel metal hydride batteries compared to lithium batteries are safer to have in your hybrid. Isn’t the Nickel metal in the RAV 4 hybrid whereas lithium is in the Carolla Cross hybrid?
For me a noisy cabin is a deal killer. I wonder if there is an awd hybrid with decent gas mileage, excellent reserve power, 3500+ lbs towing, and a quiet (no road noise) cabin?
We looked really hard at the honda CRV and as nice as it was I couldnt get past a $15,000 difference in cost compared to the Rav 4 and the reliability of Toyota. We will be receiving our 2024 Rav4 XLE Hybrid in about 1 week
I’m looking now and I driven 3 hybrids Toyota rav4 limited,Toyota Venza limited and the Honda CRV touring all 3 models are in the $40,000 ball park leaning towards the venza
This is a good list with essentially no surprises. Honda needs to step up its hybrid game & I think they could create some game changers by adding hybrid systems to the Passport, the Pilot & the HR-V models
Thanks for this. Well done, and I believe a fair ranking. Nice, but not surprising, to see all the Toyotas. Originally, we were going for the Corolla Cross, but the wait time, in our area is 2 yrs. and possibly longer. So we switched to the RAV4. Wait time for it is 12 months +? But we are ok with that as our Jetta TDI gets about 4.3/100 km. Sadly the price of diesel here now is constantly 40 cents more per litre. One of the reasons for the move to Toyota.
For me its the comfotability of the steering wheel bottom, as this is where your hands mostly steer and drive the car. The hybrid engins are all good and chair/ dash set up important, especially dials for air and radio still.
Your top is almost good on paper. Almost. But people do look also for the quality/price ratio. Thus I would switch Venza with RAV 4, because Venza seems the best; I would replace the NX with the UX (far better overall KPI's and real life experience), I would take out Kia and Ford and replace them with other Toyota and Honda hybrids. The top Japanese brands (except Mazda and Subaru, late for the hybrids' party but amazing in ICE's) do own the hybrids' segment.
I’m driving a 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid and I’m really not in love with the car. The driver’s seat is not as comfortable as other cars I’ve had in the past. I love the gas mileage and that’s about it. If buying a new car all over again I probably would go for the Toyota Grand Hylander Hybrid since I’m an Uber driver and I need a bigger vehicle.
Last year we looked at a Rav hybrid limited but the fit and finish wasn’t good, it was uncomfortable and had a lot of road noise. It was subpar to my 11 Rav 4WD Limited. We then looked at the Venza and fell in love with it. It was awesome, but we couldn’t get it with Tan or brown leather interior. It only came in either 34 year old depressing, drab, gloomy coffin like boring Gray or Black. We settled on a Forester Touring with Saddle Brown interior.
@@codincoman9019 When I’m spending $40K for a vehicle I shouldn’t have to pay an additional $3-5K for new carpet and leather upholstery and door inserts. I remember when you could order any color combinations that you wanted. After all the automotive manufacturers use to want to please their “Valued Customers” as individuals, not as a herd of cattle. Every automaker since 1990 has decided that everyone on the planet wants gloomy, depressing, bland, boring, outdated Gray or Black interior colors as standard. 80% of automobiles manufactured from 1990-1995 were White with Gray interior. That was great almost 35 years ago but sucks now. It’s like Henry Ford said, You can have any color you want as long as it’s Black.
His and hers brand new Ford focus 2013, the minute we drove them off the lot, every single recall Ford could think of, we got them, on both cars!!!! Absolute garbage. One already died!!
How is it that Toyota sienna gets 35 mph and is so much bigger than your list. Im a large man and im not sure i would fi even in the grand hylander. Any comments would be appreciated. I know i would have to buy at a premium and wsit about a year for an order.
Or buy such cars second-hand when you find an excellent deal. Like I bought my Lexus UX 250h F Sport @ 1989km with 34% discount vs. List price 4 years ago. Excellent mpg, discreet luxury and 0 issues.
Tbh I’m kinda debating on Kia Sportage. The tech, value, power and overall value is perfection. The only thing holding me back is the long term reliability. But we are very convinced
I’m in the market for a hybrid, but how good is it in extreme winters that last 6, 7 months (in the negative temps) in the northern part of the midwest? Is it worth buying?
It is a hybrid (best value for money, most reliable car segment, according to the Consumer Reports studies), not an electric clunker (the least reliable cars, as per the same CR studies). Yes, the electric-only range will decrease in the winter, but the ICE will work fine and the mpg will still be good, because the ICE for hybrids is usually in Atkinson cycle, very efficient, especially in Toyota/Lexus engines.
I'm looking at SUV hybrids right now. Consumer reports did not rate the RAV4 as high as I would have thought. The three top vehicles were the Subaru, Honda, and Hyundai.
My wife and bought a 2005 Honda CRV EX-L sold that bought a 2015 Honda CRV EX-L well it’s time to buy a new vehicle we tested a 2024 Honda CRV hybrid touring 2024 Toyota rav4 hybrid limited and a 2024 Toyota Venza hybrid Limited . Even though we have been a Honda household for 20 years where leaning towards the Venza .
I have a Toyota Rav 4 on a lease and it is up and I was wanting to get a Hybrid Toyota Rav 4 and I feel much more confident with that decision after watching your video. Thank you.
Just a note , we have a 2023 RAV4 HYBRID , You did not note that the hybrid RAV4 has a dugusting loud warning reverse noise when backing up from your garage. It needs a recall for noise. I would not buy one for that reason, hope I can help somebody. At least ask for a demo on the noise and stand near the grill. It was a good Hybrid but not now. TOYOTA line up all need a test before buying. DUGUSTING LOUD is what it is do not drink the sales koolaid.. TEST REVERSE WARNING SYSTEM Thank you. The line up are not all the same..
Toyota #1. Topgun. 🏆 Excited to see the all new redesign RAV4 in 2024. Improvement areas are 1) road noise 2) infotainment Venza is the sleeper winner here folks.

Hi Rissy I am also planning to buy a VENZA hybrid. Can you please suggest which model is the best
The Kia may or may not have a great reputation for reliability but they do offer a standard 10 year/100k mile warranty.
The Cross is a real value. I like CUV's like our UX, but the Cross is an attractive, affordable and durable choice.
My 2021 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Patinum AWD cruising range on a full tank is 600 miles. Truly amazing efficiency for a daily driver.
Is it a pain to find parking because of its size?

Engine is noisy and cabin not insulated at all . Good luck having a conversation while driving .

Good info on the RAV4! I've only seen them, & they did look kinda cheaply made...but then they are kinda cheap relative to the others. 😅😂

Why are the prices shown in these car reviews less than what is offered at the dealership? I guess the dealer markup is a Problem!! So frustrating

In the USA or Canada ? I can’t find them with light interior 😢
We are waiting for our Kia Sportage SX prestige. We have great hopes for it.Tank you very much for a great top 10 evaluation..
Did you get it yet?
This video is very helpful. Thank you. I am kind of leaning towards the Rav4 but its good to know that the Corolla Cross is also a possibility.
I would go for Ford Hybrid! I own a Ford Escape 2013 for 10 years now and have had no issues with it
The nickel metal hydride batteries compared to lithium batteries are safer to have in your hybrid. Isn’t the Nickel metal in the RAV 4 hybrid whereas lithium is in the Carolla Cross hybrid?

Ford Escape over a Sportage? I don't think so... I understand your reasoning about it being a newer system with Kia, but come on...
In fact both the unreliable Kia/Hyundai and Ford shouldn't be on the list.
Most reliable SUV is so hard to buy you end up buying something from list 3-10.
How come you never include Nissan e-powers, they have very impressive fuel economy and interior far better than Toyota
Best honda crv
What about Nissan X-Trail?
Looking for 2024, not 2023.
