Howard Ritchie's full week-long test of the 40mpg combined Toyota RAV4 Dynamic Hybrid for Leasing.com. When it comes to value for money, he thinks it's the new SUV champion.
Sending Howard Ritchie out in the 2.5-litre petrol/hybrid which comes in front or all-wheel drive, we check all the characteristics including the brand new Toyota TNGA platform.
Not only is this one of the cheapest SUVs on the planet, but now Apple CarPlay is standard on the RAV4, there really are few excuses not to get one.

Great review Howard... After thinking long and hard about replacing my 2007 diesel Rav 4 with 250k reliable miles after basic DIY basic servicing ~ oil, oil filter, air filter and brake pads every 25k with a convertable have decided buy another Rav with around 40k miles. All the luxuary convertables, Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Jaguar etc seem to have significent issues with reliability and cost a fortune to repair. Toyota seem to be the only company which regularly have recalls ~ even on older vehicles which give complete peace of mind. Having bought previous Rav with 47,000 miles and had it for 12 trouble free years with only a few minor problems this work horse has made for hassle free motoring. Only replacing it because of ULEZ rules coming in but even so it's still worth over 2k. It doesn't even use oil which is amazing for milage and will serve a non-city dweller very well with continued reliability....

If someone partially sighted was behind one of these when it went into reverse, they'd be looking up to see if they could spot a flying saucer with that weird Sci-fi noise. They would not be looking to see if a reversing Rav4 was going to flatten them :-))... Towns in the UK only flood on Fridays. Not Tuesdays! Monday is misty. Tuesday for tornados. Wednesday is windy (Parp!). Thursday for Thunderstorms and Friday is for flooding. Just for the weekend. Saturday it snows and Sunday, is sunny :-))... Great review again Howard. Thank God for a "cheap" hybrid that doesn't need plugging in too ;-))...

Problem with RAV4 is that unless you go for pricey Excel trim, the creature comforts are minimal. Not even lumber support in lower grades. No paddle shifters in any grade. No electric seat below Excel trim. Tiny screen on dashboard while other cars are having large digital screens. The infotainment is prehistoric. Even legendary Toyota reliability is missing as many owners reported hybrid system malfunction.

Hi, Splendid review. Looking at other reviews, possible USA, using the repair kit and all the gunge that goes into it, you have to replace the Tyre, True or False, some videos all show in the well maybe have a spare wheel, the shape allows this, Toyota figures say 48 MPH !, you say 40 MPH. who is right, the MPH 48 is a very good selling point, in your show more list, I did not notice the door LHS mirror had a camera, I thought you explained in great detail, I do hope you will comment on my askings. Thank you welshman2081

Hello there, Yes you would need to replace any tyre if you use any repair products. The reviewer's mpg would be what he found over a full week of testing, town and motorway, this is likely to be more "true to life" than OEM test conditions. 48mpg may be achievable. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

@@guyheaton8292 I would find it totally okay if the new cars have sesors for detecting backseat passesngers. But it should beeping for 10 seconds and then repeating a ten second beep one minute later. But that is crazy on rav4. It never stops and its crazy loud. We are not against safety. My aunt has when she rides a bicycle to the shop or to the beach reflectors on and wears a bicycle helmet every ride. And on longer rides in car backseat she put her belt on. But she dont use it on short rides in our village when she sits in the back. Its ok because its a 40 km/h zone and we ride very cautiously. Toyota has overreacted it extremely with such sensors. Last time she married again and on the wedding she sat in the backseat. She had a big wedding robe so it took 1 minute until she find the seatbelt. It was crazy loud😆😤

They wont be bought by off road enthusiasts to modify with lift kit, winch and snorkel etc. Dont be so serious.

Cheap seats. Its not leather ( or if it is is of really bad quality ) and its not cloth either. Dont forget the resell value. That Rav4 will depreciate like mad, courtesy of using batteries. Dont forget that you have to service it in a Toyota dealer because of the complexity of the electric system.
@MrPeteJMc
@MrPeteJMc 3 года назад
The Excel model has leather seats. Plus if you go for awd the hp is 222. There is less item to go wrong such as starter motor and alternator and water pump as it doesn't have them. There isn't even a fan belt. There is no gear box either. Due to the electric motors the strain on the ice is less and the regenerative braking means that the brakes last longer. Pop into a Toyota dealership and test drive one. The battery has a 10 year warranty.
