      6-8 month's for an Ontario built 'regular' Rav4, 2-3 years for a Japanese built Hybrid.
      4-5 years for a hybrid Sieanna lol
      Pixie dust orders that will never be built.
      Toyota Sequia, only high priced/top level available in North America, and with raised prices.
      Toyota currently has the highest debt to yield balance of any manufactuer.
      Hope their greed doesn't lead to Bankruptcy.

    Would’ve liked to see a year to year comparison. Rav4 Hybrid 2019-2023
    I want to see if getting an older used one would be better than the newest if the specs and tech aren’t that different. A full disclosure of issues like recalls, engine problems, and electric failures in certain models would be nice to know as well.

Mine has the fog lights and moonroof as well as fwd, cargo net and privacy screen. This video has been a great breakdown of the various models. I don’t need heated seats I live in Texas lol

      Why are Stellantis (Jeep/Ram) Ford and GM stocked FULL of inventory?
      HMMM...
      Seems no chip shortage right?
      Perhaps North Americans are too dumbed down to realize the interest rates/mark-ups on new vehicles aren't worth paying over MSRP!
      REPO's are through the roof!

    You are very knowledgeable on the hybrids. However the fact is there is no inventory available in the country. The wait times are ridiculous to get what you want. Also the prices on Toyotas are ridiculous on the Rav hybrids. For what you pay for the Rav limited you can get a Highlander non hybrid limited fully equipped.

You should also mention ur reviee is based in canadian dollars, this way i can skip it if iam looking for US models. Too bad i vant post pics when commenting.

    • @hawky225
      @hawky225 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I don't think it's so much an inability to wait as it is an expectation that promises are kept. Many people have been waiting for double or more what they were initially told by their dealer, which can be problematic when you take into account that they may have only planned to keep their current vehicle running for that original estimated time. Now they've had to spend more money on maintaining an older vehicle that may require quite a bit of work to remain drivable, not to mention increases in MSRP and finance rates. I think it's also important to note that there are RAV4s available, only the majority of them made are being shipped south into the US, where they don't have the same wait time issues that we face in Canada. When I placed my order in April 2022, US customers were waiting about 6 weeks for delivery, and my expected wait was 6 months at the time. It's now been 13 months, and my ETA is into July 2023. To his credit, these are very much so decisions made at a paygrade far higher than Marcello and our dealerships, but it's the Canadian consumers at the bottom of the hill who end up holding the bag. So it's not exactly fair to say that people aren't able to wait, I think for most of us, we're just fed up with being on the short end of the stick.
