Well I have ordered like I said before, the 2022 Toyota RAV4 adventure hybrid safari green with black seats and plenty of orange in the interior. And if I couldn’t get that trim level, it would be the limited. There are delays in NZ. Now mine is arriving in July, not May. Limiteds arrive in November. Happy new year America. NZ

We just ordered our XLE Premium through our local dealership and are so excited! You've made our researching very entertaining and I want to thank you for that. You're a great salesman! We unfortunately lost our 2012 Rav4 on 2/2/22 in a red-light running accident (other driver's fault) and, although we are fine, she was declared a total loss 😥 we had nearly 9 wonderful years with her, so it was a no-brainer to start our next chapter with a new Rav4! They are such great cars, and obviously very safe and reliable. Looking forward to the next 9+ years with our new baby! 😀

Happy New Year Jeff from 🇨🇦 Would love to see a 2022 Limited Hybrid! Yes, disappointing the RAV4’s haven’t got the 2.5. Big price hike for XSE and Limited to not include 2.5 safety sense. I don’t care for the beige because it looks funny not carrying it over to rest of car. From the posts up it’s grey. Looks odd not tying the beige in to rest of car.

I got a brand new 2022 RAV4 Hybrid. I've got 1,500 miles on it commuting to and from work. Here in Maine, if I use eco, stay 5 mph under the speed limit, and drive like my grandmother, I am lucky to get 32 mpg from my hybrid in January, February, and March. I went to the dealer today and they said, "Oh yea, you'll get 10 mpg more in the summer... if you don't use your air conditioning." I like the car, but don't expect to get any where near the stated mpg. It's better than the 22 mpg I was getting from my old Subaru Legacy, but my son gets better mileage from his non-hybrid Subaru Impreza.

It seems near 28-32 mpg.. Maybe I need to wear it in first, but I noticed that it does not get the stated mpg.
