- The behavior for the all-new Toyota RAV4 in the avoidance maneuver test (aka moose test) is so dangerous that, until Toyota corrects the error, our advise is to not buy the car.

Once you mentioned Nissan, video over. Nissan performs really well when I drive it to the mechanic shop once a week.
@Pipa Obala How does the Nissan handle when it’s cheap CVT engine shuts down on highway speed of 75 MPH. That would be a good test.

Ty for this comment i was on the john and it made my turd com me out much easier 🤣🙂
Gerard David you had to ruin it
Like the RAV4's soccer mom drivers could even put down their cell phones long enough to attempt a maneuver like this.
Ok cowboy, what 's your ride?
@@tacuazinful obviously a horse.
..
I'm from a country where only rich people can drive these cars, like bosses or businessmen or highly skilled programmers. BTW we have lots of wild mooses.
My grandma can do this maneuver one handed, while texting on the other.
Yeah they'll just kill me with their big angry grill in their brand new assault SUV.

Nah. Toyota doesnt care. The car will run perfect even if you hit 10 moose on purpose while doing the moose test.
@@kato093 Exactly, thats why it is the ultimate car in warzone including UN officials use only Toyota
Have you ever record megane 3 2013-2016 (or before lift edition) moose test? I cannot find it anywhere
The Hilux is supposed to come up on two wheels. Didn’t you know that? It’s a requirement in the Middle East. JFK
Hahahaha
Will not be approved if can't do two wheels 😂
Lol
They should be specced for the different markets then🤣🤣🤣🤣
ههههه
How do you know that ? 😁
By the way. Toyota has fixed the Hilux suspension issue. Hard luck for those two wheeler drivers.

If he was driving an Aygo, he REALLY would look like a Bacon !!! 🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓
LOL
Love the body roll and soft suspension
My 2018 instantly turned into a Ferrari when I had to lock em up and perform evasive maneuver to the right. Maybe the built in safety system which I found to be absolutely the most incredible thing I have ever experienced in 46 years of driving doesn't fully engage without locking up brakes. I am not an employee of Toyota and never have been but maybe they could give me a shout. I get very excited when telling this true story in person. For full data disclosure could you tell us how much weight was loaded in the back seat?
At no point ever should you be "locking up" your brakes during any evasive maneuver... unless, perhaps, if your car is literally sliding sideways.
Tester: Toyota! You really need to do your homework to fix this.
TOYOTA: Hold my Annual sales report 💵 💵 💵
Toyota very bad
Honda very good
OffdaRoots took the words out of my mouth.
Hotel? Trivago.
Volkswagen group: Am I a joke to you?
Don't buy the Toyota Rav4, buy the 1994 Toyota Celica.
Katheryn Scotty Kilmer approves this
yeah Nissan is cool, but the test was on a different surface and not sure if the Nissan and Kia had the same surface as RAV4. Maybe this was the game changer..
Katheryn I wana buy you Toyota 86
That was my first car, I still have vivid memories in it. Good times. It lasted me over 2 years and I was pushing it to it's limit throughout that time. It was running with over 220,000 miles and even beat my friend's 2016 Honda Civic in a race lol
And rev your engines
May you test this with the 2018-2020 Equinox? Not sure if you have them in your country. Called a Chevrolet Equinox in the US and Holden Equinox in Australia.
Toyota: Don’t be ungrateful...At least it didn’t flip over !!
still in an situation to avoid a life threatening collision, that's not good😬. Even vw atlas does better and it's bigger than the RAV4
Oh crap better make sure to step out of the splash zone when Karen picks up the kids
😅😅😅😅
*Meanwhile Doug DeMuro: "Here's why the 2019 Toyota Rav 4 is the best compaxt SUV".
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.
Finally this is the best selling vehicle in the US (excluding trucks). This SUV outsells all of Mazda in the US. While you should take car reviews with a grain of salt, the market rarely lies.
That guy is intolerable to even watch. However handles to see a full video of his, deserves to buy a faulty vehicle. Shame for Toyota. Great brand, indestructible vehicles, but never should they be excempt of critiscism
Nickbomb 09 im not gonna lie we went a 2017 Toyota rav 4 and took it to nyc and we was speeding and had to take a couple of sharp turns and we didn’t have this issue all the car did was beep to tell us we was about to flip but that’s it
THISSSsss blah blah blah.
Toyota used to have the best quality, everyone knows that... The indestructible Toyota hilux on top gear... Now, they’re literally terrible. The new supra has a bmw engine, and a bmw chassis. Basically the same as a z4, but with a worse badge on. Toyota should actually start to work on quality and safety and performance.
These cars have a very balanced (and sensitive) front/rear balance from my experience. I've found that under braking with a forward weight shift, the car tends to oversteer, but with no input and especially when throttle is applied, it tends to understeer. If you weren't applying the brakes, I would point my finger at the stability control system alternating rapidly to correct both conditions and making more of a mess than an assist
How about the FWD of RAV4? Is it the same? Coz comparing to Nissan FWD?
Shouldn't you be wearing a helmet for this?
@Jacob Sowers they said the ESP
Lol
At least it doesn't lift much.. the hilux and cherokee literally wanted to flip
Jeep redesigned its vehicle, it was retested, and it performed fine.
@@mountainhobo Hmm yes redesigned, sure. An offroader with recirculating ball steering. How quaint. Redesigned my ass
Well the higher the ground clearance, the more it does that. You cant want an SUV and not let that happen. its physics. The less it does wants to flip, the more its no more SUV. Thats just the real SUV world when it comes down to it riding up high.
@Leopold say that to filipinos
@Leopold ? People here choose the Hilux, the only kias here are either sedans or hatches, hyundai? You see starexes breaking down, there are some common cars too. Toyotas are king in here
Could you please say what the actual load in the vehicle was, as the allowable load varies by market?
*Toyota:* "I thought you get points for each cone you hit 🤔"
Haha
Haha
Which also means that the Rav4 is more fun to drive.
SMP LOL
xD true
If you wanna roll over, over again then yes
Toyota is good but the staff/ sales staff are bad .. lol
@@louisbinwag3304 not in italy
I remember six seven years ago, you did test on Jeep Grand Cherokee that failed at that time. I used to own 2012 Grand Cherokee and I could feel that it was a bit mushy. Since I work in sales for Jeep Dodge I am glad that Engineering fixed that Problem. Keep doing good work "with moose test " we need it for safety of all of us.!!!
there was also this th-cam.com/video/rGGZL_bEKlw/w-d-xo.html idk if this one is next year model or what
th-cam.com/video/_xFPdfcNmVc/w-d-xo.html
I think the recent model is doing pretty well. It's not as nimble as, say, performance-heavy SUVs, but it seems safe enough for car of its size.
What about the RAV4 Hybrid? With the batteries lowering the center of gravity does that help?
What about tyres, tyres profile etc, would this influence the test? Would nissan behave better just because it's on lower profile and better brand tyres for example?
FINALLY! MOOSE TEST FROM YOU GUYS! WE ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR AGES!

Thank you for sharing the demonstration and video. I can say after living years in Austin and Houston, Texas that evasive maneuvering can be critical in the city due to hazards and traffic, and outside the city due to deer. While some may not have the experience to think a test like this is relevant, those of us in major cities or rural areas can vouch a vehicle's capability can mean the difference between avoiding an accident and having one. I appreciate the practical application of your test.
It’s called being a proactive driver, not a reactive driver. Problem is people are not aware of their surroundings and it catches them off guard. I lived in Austin for 20 years and have encountered with many deer in the hill country in Cedar Park, Marble falls, and surrounding areas. I’ve made daily commutes to Dallas from East Texas. I also live in the boonies with deer, cows, horse, foxes, coyotes etc. If an animal jumps out in front I’m not going to risk dodging them. Rather have front end damage and to be upright than risk losing control hitting another car or pedestrian or flipping the car. If I hit a animal or it totals my car that’s what insurance is for. To be frank I don’t see the issue with RAV4 performance in this test. It’s pretty stable to me. You just gotta learn the car you drive, get familiar with its limitations, so your not caught off guard. Being a proactive driver especially in traffic requires your full attention and always looking two or three cars ahead, looking around you, know who’s in the next lane. So if some one slams on their brakes several cars ahead you’ll have time to react. Because of that I don’t have to resort to tactics like this wither it’s an animal or traffic.
As someone who owns a RAV4 fifth gen, they manouver great. I don't know if something was off that day but I drive in Florida and have to use i-4 almost daily and this car has escaped many near accidents, even being able to stop itself before I would even need to manouver.
probaly one of the updated rav 4 cars
This man really, really loves moose.
Hitting a moose will kill the fuck out of your ass.
I've read most comments on this clip and my conclusion is that you (teknikens värld) need to do a clip with history about the moose test and why it's important for both the safety of the car doing the maneuver and others on the road.
It's bullshit test that's all
@Nomad
The agenda is to tell Swedish car buyers to avoid unsafe cars.
@Nomad i totally agree with you on that one
@Nomad
It looks like Toyota remains in the nineteen seventies.
@Nomad why would anyone use a robot and how would it help
Hmm if when people drive car Almost flipsnover and that doesnt happen when the same drivers drive other cars
He sure as fu cant drive, robot should do this and car Will look safer
Can you test a 2020 Hyundai Kona AWD 1.6T on the moose test?
Does naybody know if there are any performance shocks that might allow this car to handle better than the OEM equipment they put on it? I have bought 4 toyotas (2 sedans and 2 rav4s) and noticed that they all handle similarly and am not too impressed.
Is that the limited model with the torque vectoring all wheel drive or just the normal all wheel drive?
Sooooo, do you guys just rent these for the day and return them?
@O
Toyota Sweden AB own both cars. It is a regulat car test. They tested 14 SUV:s and CrossOvers.
KX7 KX7 thank you. 👍
Lol they go to the airport and just snag one from a Hertz
When you say it's really really bad, I thought it's going to flip over or something like lifting of wheels. It stayed on the ground, albeit hitting a cone.
Yes, but with a professional driver saving the situation... what will happen if a normal person have to deal with such a situation. He (the professional) even said it becomes really hard to handle in such a situation
@@marthinusstone5530 But the professinal driver drove other cars that passed the test too, so by that logic an average driver might flip the car no matter the brand.
@@velu158 But those other cars didn't bounce around, and didn't hit the cones.
It had 2 wheels off the ground
Can this be fixed by a software update or a changed ESP module?
are you able to change the suspension
Passengers: Hurry up Hans, we're hungry!
Hans: The Rav4 behaves really really poorly in the Moose test.
Teknikens Värld, Question, when you do the above moose test how is it performed, as I have read differing opinions on the subject. Is the test completed with no driver involvement apart from steering and applying the brakes at the end of the cones, or is braking performed during the cones by the driver? It would be good if you could advise how you actually do the moose test. I know you go through the cones and slowly increase the speed until the car fails, however that's all I really know.
If braking is being done by the driver, let alone the ferocity and speed in which the wheel is turned, the grip and make of the tyres, the inflation of the tyres, driver skills.. etc etc then any car could be set up to fail, and quite easily I would imagine. I'm very, very, sceptical about youtube as if the publisher doesn't like a question...blip you can be deleted, or you are totally ignored which speaks volumes. Sometimes I wonder why people go to the trouble of uploading a video, as the end result for the viewers is to hear crickets from there questions asked.
Would love it if this video could have a tiny windows showing the dash with how fast it is going and how much the wheel is being turned. This is just because of watching a video in suzuki samurai was failed in a roll-over test just by using more aggressive driving.
Please leant to test the GMC ACadia 2018
The Toyota fanboys would say: "The color made the difference. Dark colors suck too might sunlight, which causes a pushing effect. The color white doesn't suck much sunlight at all, and it forms a pulling effect"
Dark colors work better at night. Confirmed
Dark colors have also been said to create a pulling effect on bank money
the dark color absorbs more heat which negatively affects the performance of the suspension damper fluid and clock speed of the ESP's processor. painting it red would both reduce weight, harden suspension, and provide 300 kilos of downforce, fixing this issue.
Would be better for transparency if you had a camera inside that showed the speedometer and your maneuver.
Why, it would be even better i Toyota showed their own tests.
You are just paranoid, test is fair and true
It is better documented at channel km77, one can compare it with similar vehicles, RAV4 is OK.
@Tarek Campara
You are just as sloppy in your comparison between the TV moose test and the km77 maneuver test that Toyota was in its tests of the new RAV4.
What makes you qualified to judge whether RAV4 did an OK result? The truth is that you do not know what you have been watching!
The differences between the tests are huge. These are two completely different tests and you really need to know this if you want to give your opinion. Otherwise, you appear to be very ignorant.
Teknikens Värld does its moose test with a fully loaded RAV4, in other words maximum allowed weight. This means passengers and cargo. Km77 just test the RAV4 with the driver. Got it?
@@kx7kx782 I tested the vehicle by myself under worst real driving conditions all over Bosnia dangerous roads. All I can say it is fantastic for the vehicle with high center of gravity.
if you do a comparison test... specify if the rav4 is AWD or not.. and there are different options for the power train (again not a car guy) .. but you can have it on for snow/ice , dirt,gravel , ECO , etc does it make a diff for that? also for the cars do they have similar tires. i know i can put on a different set of tires for each car which would effect this test. just gunna take this with a grain of salt.
Any plans to try this on a 2020?
It was painful to watch Hilux, my favorite truck, struggle in this test. I took solace in knowing that it's not a sport car and no one will drive it like a maniac
Welp they always went for reliability over performance, cant blame them...true the hilux and maybe the new RAV4 will try to flip if driven really fast, but if driven slower and more consistently, it won't fail you when you need it the most. I mean the african war lords could have used pre '90s peugeots, which are more common in africa, or vehicles from other brands but they chose toyotas for a reason
Truck sucks
This isnt about performance driving, its in the name "moose test". You are avoiding an obstacle that suddenly appeared. Like a moose. But yea if you drive responsibly it shouldnt be much of a problem
With a hilux you dont need to excell in the moose test, you just hit the deer and drive away no problem
@@gaborangyal338 Just a reminder that deer and moose are not the same. A moose can weight ~850kg
RAV4 is the best selling. After watching this moose test I will buy a new RAV4
Fuuuuck i feel the same for real, it just looks good
Doesn’t the best selling go to the Honda CRV?
Can you guys do a moose test on the subaru ascent?
From the title, I thought you would test the auto emergency break in case a moose run into road
...later it was discovered that complying to all "moose test" requirements makes vehicle tottally undriveable in snow, or in mud, or on unpaved road ...
Source? Not trying to insult in any way I’m just genuinely curious :)
@@liamwisner3580 Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given.
Well I wonder what mode it was in being tested. There are 3 modes, eco, normal and sport. It also has sway control and collision control. I knew this car had to many functions to be dependable. Time will tell. I had a great Camry before. My brother needed a car, so I let him have the Camry. It was a 2012, only 6 speeds and 4 cylinder. Every time they try to fancy things up things go wrong.
Is there a moose test for rav4 prime?
Cool video, wish to grow for your channel
Actually this is why I chose RAV4, very nimble and soft in US streets full of pot holes!

Is there any crossover SUV that passes the moose test?
Very good video thank you
A friend of mine collided with a moose two weeks ago in his XC60. The car system saw the moose before he did and helped with the braking. The car slightly touched the moose and only the grill, bonet and one head light had to be replaced. Amazing safety system.
your friend replaced the grill and bonnet and head light, and you call it a slightly touch lol🤣poor moose RIP😂
Has anyone felt his aggression with the initial left and right in the Rav4 is a little high? I do, however, agree that a robotic steering system which has equal programed aggression would suit this test justly.
@George Tek
Look what Velleity said!
”That is exactly the point. Worse possible input to the car, and the best possible output from the car.
The idea is that if you steered any slower, you’d hit the moose.
I imagine something like “you can’t start steering till you’ve passed the first cones” means you need to steer sharp and hard.
The test is ISO standardised. That’s about the furthest from subjective humanity has reached so far”
Euroncap used to do a similiar test on cars with ESP and used robots they stopped doing them and just assume the car makers will do it properly.
KX7 KX7 I don’t think the test matters. I’d rather hit the thing in front of me than risk swerving, sliding out, and rolling my car and getting crushed. Haven’t you ever heard of insurance companies saying they may not pay if you swerve and crash? Use your brakes, they’re designed to stop you quickly with safety in mind. They don’t make the steering to withstand drifting because you’re not supposed to be doing that in a car. Absolutely the stupidest maneuver to do in a car and very risky.
@Nomad

@turbisios
They tested 14 SUV:s! Only RAV4 failed. The Teknikens Värld Magazine is in stores now.
@@kx7kx782 i mean more cars..
I'm curious to know if all the cars in the comparison are using the same type of tires. I feel like the tires would make a huge difference in how well it could perform.
Most manufacturer-provided tires are pretty much the same unless you compare it to performance summer tires that comes with specific cars.
Testing with anything other than the OEM tires is moving the goalposts. Most people who aren't enthusiast won't go out of their way to get better tires.
The correct inflation of the tires would be more important than the type of tire. Most drivers couldn't tell you where their Tire Placard is let alone know what the correct pressures are.
I'm curious to know if you nerver read the comments before you type? Check what Teknikens Värld said.
Yes, they are round and black and provided with the car and where tested by the car manufacture. No excuse there.
Having ESC to minimize rollover is one thing. Having ACC (Adaptive Chassis Control) in addition to ESC will make the vehicle even more stable and even less likely to rollover. Adding Torque Vectoring to an SUV already equipped with ESC and DCC will make it drive almost like a sports sedan.
Can we see one for Camry 2018?
This is not a design flaw. It's a Toyota. You are supposed to drive straight through the Moose.
I got the impression that the RAV4 was tested at a higher speed !!!
Maybe, after watching a video on how suzuki samurai was called dangerous by Consumer Union by forcing the car to tip. I would love if there was an actual dash footge of speed being driven at and how much the wheel was turned. Just a samll windows displaying this info which can be easily be captured using a gopro.
The piece of asphalt is different, the weight of the cars ratio to the speed makes a huge difference, yes a lighter car at the same speed will jump wilder than a heavier car does at that speed. A lot depends on the driver steering and where you put the cones tbh 😂 with so many things unconsidered, I really don’t understand the point of moose test, you can’t expect same results from not same asphalt, not same tires, not same weight, not same driver, not same speed, not same cones(yes again, they don’t seem to be right) this guys really have something against Toyotas 😂 talking like it’s some piece of shit
@@ramizalizada4565 yeah almost like someone is paying them to make them look bad
@@ramizalizada4565 Where's your evidence that the RAV4 was driven faster, the cones were placed differently, and the asphalt was different? Just face it... the RAV4 doesn't handle well.
@@judgeadvocate9275 I’m driving one ☹️
Every Toyota I’ve ever driven has had horrible ESP. While doing this maneuver in the Camry (all years 12-18, not sure about 2019), the steering wheel freezes/locks on the recovery maneuver (after the first “jerk” to the left) and it’s literally impossible to get it centered until speed is below a certain point. Very, very scary and repeatable behavior.
It is easy to test, weather it is the wheel/tire combo or suspension/dynamics issue.
But looking the footage in slow motion. One would say - the suspension is a little bit too softly damped and the tires are under rated (You can see the sidewall compressed extremely. With different combo, the car could behave a lot better. But of course the speed is very low. that is barely exagerated city speed.
I own one hybrid and the car is great. Great fuel consumption and overall. But I tried few hard corners and it is really scary. It feel like the back moves too much all sudden. Fell like a old solid rear axle car.
Knowing its corner limitations it is safe to drive.
Is anyone going to ignore how the Qashqai managed to keep up with supercars on the moose test?
At what point do you measure the speed?
At entry point (before swerving?), in the middle of swerving or at the exit point?
Please do a comparison against the new 2020+ Honda CRV?
Why is the track from the RAV4 test different from the other cars tested?
Cones were placed closer on the other cars while RAV4 was set to wider turns?
I will take my chances with the Toyota. It will last Longer anyways.
Tony Maybe but it is not head and shoulder above its competition like the Huyndai.
Will it though? i've seen my fair share of lemon toyotas
A NPC named Tony.
If you ever find yourself needing to do an emergency maneuver like this...the Toyota may last longer than you! ;-P
Richard Minh Le wtf dude Hyundai is the cheapest car. Even new it has problems and it is not stable on the road when you surpass 60 km/h...... but yeah I don’t like Toyota either it doesn’t last that long it is a myth. German cars are the best
"The esp fails to limit the cars movement"
Wonder how it would corner with it on
Is it me or are the cones spaced out differently on the toyota?

It doesn't have enough grip to roll over.
And strangely I see 99% of RAV4's on 4 wheels.
They're trying to roll the Rav4 in this test. Looks like it passed and everyone lived!
The hilux has a bad habit of rolling. Happened to a family member .
This is stupid though. It didn’t even get close to flipping. And it probably was bouncing because the tires were folding under. This was a rigged test in my opinion. Toyota makes some of the safest cars on the road.
Now test the RAV4 Hybrid front wheel drive version.
Emanuel Arnold all 5th gen rav4 hybrids are AWD. At least in the US, they are.
@@key2lifeguac In Germany you can order FWD or AWD.
Is the ride quality good? Most times comfort takes away from Extreme performance.
Have you tried this on a 1994 Toyota Celica?
literally never seen anything like this happen in my life,
This unnecessary test causes damage to a company’s reputation and serves no purpose.
Actually this is a completely viable situation to get into while driving, either when having to avoid a pedestrian, or a moose. So I really am not sure what you mean by no purpose.
This, together with straight line braking performance is one of the most important maneuvers a car can handle.
A sudden obstacle, might it be a moose or a car that suddenly merges into your lane that has to be avoided at highway speed is a common scenario that I have witnessed multiple times in person.
However I do agree, that this test is completely unrealistic in America, as 90% of drivers appear to be so distracted by their phone that they wouldn’t even react before they hit the obstacle.
Scotty wants to know your location!
When the pilot in you kick in... nah seriously this guy is amazing
One car I can't find anywhere for a Moose test: 370z. Would love to see it in one of these. I know it's a sports car, but as an owner (or, previously owned) I'm very curious.
The car esp let the back slide to avoid a roll over. Yes I read it from a forum.
Makes sense, it’s a shame they couldn’t keep it totally stable all the way through, though
Do you think it would skip like that if it was fwd? Or is it the brakes that are in use in this situation
Jeragon186 usually ESP selectively applies the breaks when needed, FWD’s would handle slightly differently but, if anything, being AWD would help with stability
