A detailed review of the 5th Generation Toyota RAV4 Hybrid (XA50) including a comprehensive overview of the interior and storage space. I drove it in the city, the country and on 70mph roads. I reset the trip computer to see what the efficiency is like on each drive. This particular car is the top spec four wheel drive dynamic.

This is the first time I've seen you review a car and I'm mightily impressed with you, no showing off, real time driving, a brilliant all over review of every aspect the average driver wants. The Rav4 is a very impressive SUV, it time to say goodbye Evoque, hello Rav4.

I hear the Évoque is not reliable, but you will know better than me. One thing I do know is the Rav is extremely reliable. So, if you want a car that just works, it has to be the Rav. Not flashy, but quality.

Hi, well I've had my Evoque 4 years, 1 sensor failed me last year. The problem isn't the Evoque, the problem is Land Rover after sales department. From reporting it to Landrover it took 122 days to finally replace the sensor. I can't go into details, it's too long a story but I'll give you 1 example. My 4 year old Evoque passed its mot, 1 advisory, rear brakes. Landrover serviced it two weeks later, Red Alert for both front and back brakes and disks, need changing urgently, hmmmmm. I questioned Landrover, they said the technician said they all need replacing,Two weeks later an independent garage replaced my rear pads and disks, half of Land rovers price. He also said front brakes are still good. 2 weeks later back into Landrover for the sensor, new report said Amber alert for front pads, 6.5mm of pad left. Hmmmmm, 4 weeks ago you gave me a Red alert, now they have 6.5mm of pad left. There's more of this, this isn't the only incident and lie they've told me over 122 days. The Evoque is beautiful and reliable up to now but their after sales service is absolutely disgraceful. Steve

I have a Rav 4 with all the options in France. The car was made in Japan. Two things only touched on in this video which are absolutely superb. The heated steering wheel is one, but the winner is the heated windscreen. In winter the ice is cleared from my windscreen while I’m turning round in my driveway. No scraping, no delay. It just works. Like the whole car really.

The only thing I think is lacking is better noise insulation. It's not terrible, but having driven Mercedes and BMW on road trips before I feel there was something they did on the highway that made the trips more effortless. Otherwise it's a jack of all trades kind of car, but still the best overall I have owned.

Thanks again, Richard. I have just re-watched your excellent video. On Friday I did a short test drive in the Rav4 Design and was impressed (my current car is a bigger Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, which I love, but it’s 7 years old). Yesterday I placed my order for the Rav4 and my confidence in the car is largely based upon your review, confirmed in my test drive. Cheers!

I purchased an XSE (US version) 2 months ago. Your review is spot on! After 15 years of Honda's I initially did not care for the Toyota's interior quality and drive dynamics. But the more I drive it and get used to the layout the more I love it. It is easily the best all around vehicle I have ever owned.

Brilliant Richard. I have a 2019 excel and everything you have said is accurate. The only bit that I can say to compliment is that the instrument display does change to a full digital speed display and that there are various information displays if one toggles through them. One area you didn't cover was the infotainment system that Toyota should be improving on the 2023 models. I have a rav4 phev on order for next year. I hope that you can compare the phev to the normal hybrid at some stage.

Wow!! I've watched so many car review videos made by others, but your review is by far one of the best I've seen so far - although I must say this is just the 2nd video I've seen as I came across your YT channel by chance. What I like most is your in-depth detailed review, actual driving experience on both country and urban roads, and also the features comparison and pricing across different grades. I subscribed to your channel hoping to watch more videos. When these cars become available, I'd be interested in a comparative review of 2023/24 models of Nissan ePower SUV vs Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, Lexus NX350h vs NX450h+, Mercedes GLC 300 coupe vs GLC 300 SUV.

You are correct, lane centring is not as smooth as say Kia and others. But as an all round vehicle, it’s good value. Chasing cars AustralIa website gave it 1st place comfortably out of 11 vehicles tested and there testing was extremely vigorous and comprehensive. Cheers NZ.

An excellent thorough review. Top marks!…. As an owner of a 2wd ‘Dynamic’ with panoramic roof for a year now (10,000mls) I can agree with all the points you’ve made. The Toyota app, (which allows you to locate your car and gives you trip info etc) shows that in that time I’ve averaged 50+mpg and have spent 50% of my time and just over 30% of distance in EV mode. Unless you look at the dashboard you will never know when it is switching between EV and petrol, it’s that smooth. On a 1300ml trip from Cornwall to Northumberland and back on a mixture of motorways and A roads I averaged 53mpg sticking it in cruise at 70-75mph on the motorway and keeping to 60mph on A roads. For a a very comfortable SUV the economy is amazing whilst you are never lacking in performance. It’s simply an efficient comfortable ‘daily driver’ which, with the 10yr/100,000ml warranty, is hard to fault.

Annoyances with Toyota ACC is that it only goes up and down in increments of 5mph (non adaptive cruise seems to go up and down in ones, and if you hold it then goes up in 5s, 10s), so in ACC you have to do the work around of setting it above what you want (say 60mph if you want 58) then press "Cancel" then press "Set" as it decelerates. The buttons don't give much feedback either so sometimes feels like they don't respond.

I have a friend who has had two CRVs, the first one had the fuel dilution problem, so I suggested he buy a RAV4. He purchased another CRV and has had cam chain and guide issues, as well as emission system problems. He has had enough and bought a RAV4.

You can’t help some people. I have a friend who asked for advice. I advised Corolla or Yaris hybrid for her needs. She bought a Nissan Juke petrol model automatic and complains it uses too much fuel. I had just given her all the advice she needed to buy the right car. I’m just waiting for the breakdown issues as the Juke ages.

Hi Richard, Having a second look at your video, still very impressed, does this model have Premium models, if not what are the extras, do you have any lists, that you can leave a link I have been looking at Plug-in models, but seeing this video again, has me thinking, I live in Cumbria for the record, Regards welshman 2081

Great, but when will Toyota UK actually have any to sell. Been trying to order one for a while, but dealers not taking deposits.

Would you consider the Mazda CX-60 over this Rav4? Seems the interior of the Mazda looks better but how do the rides compare?
@RichardFanders
@RichardFanders Жыл бұрын
The CX60 is more plush inside and is more fun. The RAV4 has a smoother transmission and uses a lot less fuel without needing to charge it.

@@RichardFanders thanks for responding. In the US we’ll probably get the CX-70. Lots of RAV4’s over here.

That CX-60 is tempting. I just want something a bit smaller for the roads in Portugal. But I’m a fan of the Mazda cx60.

I really do believe hybrids are more beneficial for the environment. Combining the efficiency of electric with the long range of gasoline is rrally the best way to go imho. The RAV4 is a lovely vehicle to travel with!
