Just bought mine yesterday after waiting 2 months for it to be built and ship...2024 XSE hybrid cavalry blue black top LOVE IT!! Especially the 11 speaker JBL system😊
I purchased my 2024 Rav4 XSE hybrid and I "LOVE IT" I was not even thinking about buying a hybrid, but after testing it out, I felt for it. I made a great purchase!
Have a 2024 CSE Hybrid cavalry blue and black. Get lots of compliments on looks and color. I love driving it. It handles amazingly well. Felt comfortable driving it from day one.
Just bought a fully equipped RAV4 XSE last month, with panoramic sunroof, digital rear view mirror, dashcam and panoramic view camera, makes parking in the garage an easy task.
Thanks for the comprehensive overview - I ordered mine last week and am watching videos to tide me over til it gets here in a few weeks. I don't see any mention of the ambient lighting being able to be added for mine, but I also see that on the Toyota site right now, it lists it as being standard on the XSE, so I'm really hoping mine has it!! I've got it in my MINI and it really is a nice touch.
Jeff, I really appreciate you reviewing the 2024 RAV4 Hybrid XSE. Can you do a drive test on one too? I am very interested in learning how well it accelerates on the highway and passing cars.
I just bought one and traded in a 2014 Ford Focus ST with some performance modifications, This thing is definitely not as powerful as the ST but it does have a good amount of power for overtaking, it has almost no lag when flooring it, and has solid torque. I am enjoying mine so far. The 2024 Toyota Venza Hybrid drives the same if you are able to test drive one of those, I went with this model due to it being cheaper fully loaded, and the venza having some odd interior design choices I was not very fond of. Plus this rav4 looks way more sporty than a venza.
This is the best-looking trim of the Rav4 Hybrid, especially in this color. The only feature it doesn't have that my 2018 Rav4 Hybrid Limited has is the memory seat function, which I never use anyway. I don't understand why Toyota saw fit to delete a pocket off of the driver's seat back. Otherwise, if I decided to trade in my 2018, this would probably be the model of choice, though I would add the JBL stereo speakers upgrade that's not included in the option package for the vehicle reviewed.
I live in a big city with 4 large Toyota dealerships close to me. I want to buy the XSE trim loaded with options. Specifically what Toyota calls the Advanced Technology Package #3. The problem is that the dealerships get very few Rav4 hybrids in the XSE trim. And the ones they do have are mostly white color and don't include all the options I'm looking for. Basically I want a XSE that's loaded and in a color other than white. When I do find a XSE with the options I want, the price will be approaching $50K out the door. How I wish for the good ole days when I could give the dealer a list of all the options I want and they would order it for me.
This has softex seats, the Camry se has cloth seats. Unless the Camry se seats are upgraded for the 2025 model year. Either way Toyota only offers Cloth or softex in all their vehicles.😊
Enjoy your RUclips channel. I just bought this RAV4 hybrid. Has 75,000 miles on it. Concerned about battery. I hanever been able to get the battery to show full charge. Recently on a trip on the interstate this, in the picture is the best it would do. When it gets to three empty bars from top it starts using from the battery. Is this normal? Is there an adjustment needed for that.? I could figure out how to send the picture. What it is the picture of the engine running the car at 74 mph. Also pulling voltage from the battery with only 4 bars of battery. The battery level never gets higher. I had driven on interstate 30 minutes when picture was taken.
Just curious, in a good way. If you were my neighbor, at some point would I need to consider therapy? Nah, just kidding. You are a colorful salesperson. 👍
The huge screen and the Infotainment Screen could go in my opinion. The Physical Buttons are a huge +. Hopefully, the Controls and Electronics are not Intrusive. Can I get a Basic New car without all of these Electronics that could break. The more bells and whistles you have in a system. The more that can go wring. A Manual Transmission would be a nice option as well and Head Lights that I can turn off for example. A single switch not a electronic one is what I would like to see.
The fabric part of the seats is a poor design, that’s exactly where something you spill goes. The lane centering and steering assist are dangerous if there is construction and there is no way to completely disable them. You can shut it off each time the car is turned ON but that is annoying if you forget OR come upon unexpected construction or an accident.
I'm not even shopping for a rav4 anymore, I just watch for your personality!
You win for comment of the day!

2 months isn’t bad. I was thinking way longer than that.
Yay 😀 congrats 🍾
Where from ?
how much do you pay for drive out? if you don't mind I ask
How are your monthly payments? Roughly?
Bought this exact trim and color in january after watching a bunch of Jeff's videos on rav4s. Love it.
We have a 2022 Rav4 Hybrid LTD and we really like it. We average 42.3mpg over the 33,000 miles so far! completely amazing!
Wow
Have a 21 XSE in Blueprint Blue . No problems ...... goes in snow ..... averaging 41.6 the last 5 k
Jeff, For XSE fans, the RAV4 XSE Hybrid is definitely the one to get. 🤩
This is the best all around car for what I’m looking for, this is my dream car!

i will get mine first week in October, I cant wait. I love your video, you are funny and very knowledgeable, thank you so much
Bought xse hybrid 2 months ago. Has panoramic moon roof. Everything to love, nothing to complain about. I'm getting 41 mpg in town drivi g.
No pano roof unless you bought a prime

I have a 23 XLE Hybrid in Blueprint....love it...see RAV4 Hybrids...everywhere
Second rav4 after a premium full AWD hybrid now a PHEV full too.Never had an issue … a real gem for the family 😊
Just bought a fully equipped RAV4 XSE last month, with panoramic sunroof, digital rear view mirror, dashcam and panoramic view camera, makes parking in the garage an easy task.
That's what I want!
Canada or the US??
@@DrReddyCan US
I got mine today…even same color..it’s really amazing inside and outside. Thank you for sharing some useful information 😍😍😍
Drove this XSE and LImited. Went with the Limited for the added feature and smoother ride.
Thinking abt that too… the premium is less sporty looking tho and more touring looking
Fahre selbst denn RAV und ich muss sagen bin immer noch begeistert wenn ich in fahre obwohl ich denn 2019 fahre bekomme einfach nicht genug 😊
😂 i couldn't skip till the end. Nice commentary
That's a huge compliment! Thanks so much :)
Just ordered mine last week. Calvary blue XSE with the tech package. Now the year and half wait begins…. (Canada)
thx for the video - this pushed me over the edge to buy one

@toyotajeffreviews Always enjoyable reviews. Where can i catch your stand-up show? .... how can you not resist invoking "that's what she said"?
Got mine about week or 2 ago and I love it

@@Tlbsoftware Thanks for your feedback. I almost bought a 2024 Venza Limited, but decided to wait and keep saving for the next gen RAV4 Hybrid XSE.

Your personality is perfect 😂❤
The XSE is a strong contender for my next vehicle. Just waiting for my local dealer to get a hybrid for me to test drive.
I was looking to test drive this trim, but I'm having a hard time finding one on the lot. I've called 3 dealers in my area.
I traded in my Subaru Impreza for a 2023 XSE last year, not happy with it.
I’m definitely going back to a Subaru soon.
What didn't you like?
sweet ride, but it'd have to be in black or red for me. anyway, why you never test-drive, no driving impressions?
Your personality alone makes me want to buy two 💰
Since 2019 the RAV4 hybrid has always been rated 40 mpg overall, why is the 2024 only 39?

What’s the update on the high voltage cable corrosion?..
Beautiful car and good design....
I don't know why they put the SE Camry seat material in a top trim RAV4 vehicle of that price range..😕
This has softex seats, the Camry se has cloth seats. Unless the Camry se seats are upgraded for the 2025 model year. Either way Toyota only offers Cloth or softex in all their vehicles.😊
I love your attitude! great video. i think we are sold lol
@@STEEZinNUTZ awesome thanks hahaha
How much more affordable would a option be without a Digital Screen?
This will be my next car! How long will it take for me to get one if I build and order it?
I just order an xse up last night .. 6 month or so ..
i am shopping for a new rav4 xse, how is the tss 2.5 comparing to corolla cross with tss 3.0?
With this type of all-wheel drive, do you need to have four tires with the same amount of wear as in traditional all-wheel drive?
Not a fan of the glossy plastic, but otherwise looks great.
Is that ambient lighting a option that you add when you’re building it?
What was that drip at @ around 9:07?
I rest drove one and the road noise was...woof
Kia Sportage. Cheaper with faster delivery. Better looking. Wish it was a Toyota.
Great info and “whoo!” funny too!😊
How do i turn off sound when opening the boot/trunk

The battery is never supposed to show full. That's normal
What’s the MRSP?
I wonder when the new look of the RAV 4 will come out. I know the new Honda CRV is beautiful
Yes Jeff you're faster than the flash😂
I’m 6’3 is the vehicle good for me?
Hello, a question: how do you charge the electric battery of this model?
It charges itself when running
Toyota, you make good reliable cars, add 360 feature to your cars please. The cross bar above the moon roof is really disappointing on this RAV4.
“I want the best of both worlds…” 😂
I could've sworn that this is woj's dopplehanger lol
Just curious, in a good way. If you were my neighbor, at some point would I need to consider therapy?
Nah, just kidding. You are a colorful salesperson. 👍
Waiting on a plugin
They have a plug-in version
It doesn’t have fog lights?
It's an option.

The New hybrid crv gives better mpg over the hybrid rav4

too many dumb jokes. Just review the car.
Dood you’re not funny stop trying. Why is it wet? I assume the paint is messed up & you’re trying to hide it with the water brah
