They don’t call it Premium for nothing! Take a gander at this beautiful Rav4 with me and I’ll show you all the features, inside and out! #toyota #rav4 #2023
That’s awesome to hear! The Ravs are just top tier, I love them too! My previous 2005 model had about 310,000km and my coworker bought it and still drives it!
For all those short people, you will need a booster seat to see over the infotainment center, and that is on top of the driver's seat being all the way up.
Does the mud flaps and rubber matscome with all the premium models? Also my apple play doesn’t come up my music does through blue tooth but when I press the upper area to go to apple play and just navigation comes up??
Which trim level in Toyota lineup is the best selling one? Elisabeth between XSE and XLE premium which one do you choose? I believe Toyota should add some of optional features as standard.
I’d say the XSE and the XSE Tech are definitely our top sold models. People here love the two-tone sporty look 👀 which do you prefer? And what features do you think should come standard? 🧐
@@tracksandtrees Same as here. XSE is more popular in higher end. Well my all time fav trim is Limited but if I have to choose between XLE Premium and XSE then definitely I go with the XSE for the exact reasons you mentioned. Here In the US weather package is optional, and I think it should be standard on XLE Premium trim and above. Even the digital rear view mirror should be standard as well.
As a 4'-10" woman, I wonder if that screen is going to be in the way. I really like the premium trim level though. I have not yet done a test drive. Just think it sticks up a bit.
I have the 2023 sleeve premium and like it. Just surprising that such a loaded vehicle does not come with garage door opener in the mirror, especially since the base model does have it. FWIW
Will this model be the same as one ordered in Ontario? I put a deposit down on this exact model, but want to make sure it has all the same features. Thanks!!
Yeah it’s too bad it’s such a long wait!! I hope yours comes soon. I’m sure if you tell your dealership you’re open to other colours or trim levels you might get one sooner too!
Hi... Is there 2 kind of xle premium?? There are diffirent price.. One without heat in front seat , port install. .. and another one with heat front seat??..
Would you have any idea about what will happen with 2024 Toyota RAV4’s? My 2019 Trail lease expires next year, and I’m curious if there will be a redesigned RAV4 by then. Although, I should know better not to buy the first gen of a new design lol, lots of quirks and issues that had to get resolved with my 2019.
Not sure when it will be redesigned! It’s always speculation until Toyota Canada directly tells us. Lots of rumours though! Excited to see what they will do… not sure where you’re at what the wait times are - but you might want to place an order now and get a lease extension! Our wait times for gas models are even 6-12 months over here
@@tracksandtrees thanks for the insight! Yes apparently Toyota likes to keep everything on the DL. Mine only has 12,500 KM on it lol so not sure if it’s just better to buy it out when the lease expires or give it to someone else in my family to take over. I never knew lease extensions were available, that’s good to know.
expect deliveries of the new gen RAV4 at the beginning of 2026. The interior will have similar design to the new prius and bz4x. The exterior wont likely change that much-probably mainly the lights and a couple of other things. Also its supposed to be by a couple of inches bigger to match the new CRV.
awesome vid!! looking to buy a new 2023 rav4 or hyundai tucson.. and I've been watching a bunch of review vids. This is the first review that made me want to go with the rav4 (sorry! I admit almost didn't click it because I guess I subconsciously prefer review vids by men). Just wanted to say you did a great job of going through EVERYTHING and this made me lean more towards the rav4.. I just thought the rav4 was kinda lacking in design in the past, but this white/pearl color doesnt look bad. TBH, I don't know much about the new features and trims of either cars, but I'm torn between the amazing features and cool design of the tucson, and the good old reliability of the rav4. anyone have any thoughts? btw, what are the major diff between this, the Adventure, and Off Road, and the Limited.
I've looked at both your choices too, one HUGE difference is the look of the dash and console areas of each vehicle: the Hyundai product has gobs of that shiny dust collecting "piano black" where the RAV4 has zero! i personally cannot stand that piano black so I quickly walked away from Hyundai and its sister company Kia. I like the longer warranty but that's about it. You can't go wrong with Toyota.
I’ve had Hyundais for YEARS, the Santa Fe, & Tucson . Got my 2nd Rav 4 in 4 years.. the whole buying and driving experience is way above Hyundai .. I’ll never go back!
Just received my new Toyota Rav4 XLE Premium in the Pearl White. Love most everything about it. I do have a question with the steering. Have there been any issues with the sensitivity of steering? I first received this car and the alignment was off so they re-aligned this. It did help but still feeling like I am all over the road. Any suggestions?
Hey Lisa! I personally haven’t heard of any steering issues so this is a first.. I’m sure they all would receive an alignment before being sold, so that is a bit odd sounding! I find Toyotas have fairly sensitive steering and an amazing turning radius - almost go-kart feeling like! Not sure what is the case with your particular unit though!
Thank you! I am in Ontario and placed an order with a dealer about a week ago. Hoping to have it by September! (Exact same model that you showed, Wind Chill Pearl XLE Premium)
the only differences between those two cars would be: full LED lights, full digital 12 inch drivers display and a new bigger central screen-however these things are available only on certain trim options, for example the car shown here doesnt have any upgrades from the older models🤣
@@Mo.Jo. I just test drove one today, and I'm happy to say it does come with a 24 meter range remote start built in the key fob - without the subscription. It's not that great but at least it's something. Also it voids your warranty if you install an after market starter.
you so lucky can test dry , in NEWYORK city ,I went couple dealers can’t find one for test drive,they said when you buy your new car so you can test drive ha ha
@@martind.1987is this in Canada? Does the remote start come with it? Is it remote start using your iPhone or is it built into the default key fobs? Been trying to find this out online but struggling. Does it have the LED strip in the head lights and separate fog lights? Are the lights bright bright? Thanks!!!
There is a button that looks like an A with a half circle around it - this is the auto start stop switch 😊 you will see it in my video at 8:00 mins in - it’s to the right of the passenger’s heated seat
Best walk around ever! Mine was built 6/29/2023. Should have been here today?!! 😡.. lol.. Will be in 7/24. Because of the transport schedule pushed back.. I can wait? Lol😊
Thank you for pronouncing BUTTON correctly .
Thanks, I feel like a superhero now 😎
Just what I've been needing, a calm and DETAILED tour of the XLE Premium. FANTASTIC job!!!
Thanks Emily I appreciate it! Just want clients to be able to see what they’ve ordered in!
Got mine last Saturday! Such an amazing car!
Congrats!! They really are awesome! Thanks for watching
I got my RAV4 XLE Premium a month ago and I love it!
That’s awesome to hear! The Ravs are just top tier, I love them too! My previous 2005 model had about 310,000km and my coworker bought it and still drives it!
Thanks for sharing this video. I was waiting to see review on xle premium since long time.
So glad I could help! 😊
Great demo, thank you.
Thanks! Glad you found this helpful
Beautiful vehicle! I just put a hold deposit on one, the exact color/model. Mine will be 2WD though. Can’t wait! Thanks for the review.
That’s super exciting! Congratulations 😊 you got a good one that’s for sure 😎
I got mine today ❤lunar rock baby
Lunar is my favourite! Congratulations
Just bought mine! Elizabeth you are stunning! from Newfoundland
Very good walk around! I like the pace.
Thank you I appreciate it!
Nice review!
Thanks Sara! I appreciate it 😊
You were shivering a bit while talking before u got into the car. 😂
Great summary
Appreciate the comment!
For all those short people, you will need a booster seat to see over the infotainment center, and that is on top of the driver's seat being all the way up.
What is the price of this specific model? Does it have a front view camera?
Does the mud flaps and rubber matscome with all the premium models? Also my apple play doesn’t come up my music does through blue tooth but when I press the upper area to go to apple play and just navigation comes up??
Best there is in the whole world 👍👍👍👍😊😊😊 regards from Norway 🇳🇴 1:32
Such a detailed review 😍
Glad you found it helpful!
Do all the newer Toyota's coming out have a built in GPS in the center console ? Is it free ? Thanks great video too.
Well most new models all have wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto - so it’s using your data but it’s always up to date! So no need for map updates
I got one 2015 and loved but I wanna the new one maybe I get it this year😅
What type of trim lines and how many seatbelts in this suv

Xle premium
How long did you wait for delivery? I have booked the same in Burnaby in Jan 2023 and waiting to hear from dealership
It’s so hard to say when they will arrive! We are currently saying 2-36 months on all vehicles since it is so all over the map!
As a 4'-10" woman, I wonder if that screen is going to be in the way. I really like the premium trim level though. I have not yet done a test drive. Just think it sticks up a bit.
As long as you can see over the dashboard, the screen should not bother you.
I have the 2023 sleeve premium and like it. Just surprising that such a loaded vehicle does not come with garage door opener in the mirror, especially since the base model does have it. FWIW
Yeah that’s messed up 😊

I believe all of Canada receives the same models but I’m not positive!
Superb!
Thanks for joining in!
I liver in CR and we've been waiting for our XSE for 14 moths :( I would love a XLE premium! xD
Great video 👍
Yeah it’s too bad it’s such a long wait!! I hope yours comes soon. I’m sure if you tell your dealership you’re open to other colours or trim levels you might get one sooner too!
Thank you!

Only one XLE Premium in Canada! This one does have heated front seats

I just ordered this exact model :) Does anyone know what the sound system is like??
It’s really good! Was just playing with it yesterday adjusting the fader and balance!
Is that rubber mat on the second row option to purchase?
We include rubber mats - just the back rubber cargo mat is a Genuine Toyota Accessory you can add on!
Please comment on the availability of passenger power adjustable seat?
Only on the Limited model! Thanks for checking in!
i have 2023rav4 xle premium my question is when i used remote starter there is no lights on is this normal for thus model?
Is it the app on your phone remote starter, is that included in this model? Or is it the separate installed one for $900

Yeah they changed all the 2023 dashboards! Also they have wireless apple CarPlay and android auto, so no more cords!

I have a questions did you get to keyless key or just one ?
How long did you wait for delivery? You booked at which location?
Turn off lane assist.
Yea, “what rayg said “
Do you know the average wait time for the 2023 Toyota Rav4 XLE (gas model)?
Here it could roughly be 6 months plus
Thank you! I am in Ontario and placed an order with a dealer about a week ago. Hoping to have it by September! (Exact same model that you showed, Wind Chill Pearl XLE Premium)
xle premium rave 4 ,2023 in NEWYORK city I went to dealer the waiting time around 3 months, with HYBRID around 9 months that’s dealer told me
In Indiana I ordered an xle mid May. Delivery is supposed to be mid/ late June
In Australia in is 15 months to 2 years
I have a 2020 xle premium and I was wondering how much of a difference is the 2023 model.
Now there is wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto off the top of my head! Did you see many differences as well from this video?
the only differences between those two cars would be: full LED lights, full digital 12 inch drivers display and a new bigger central screen-however these things are available only on certain trim options, for example the car shown here doesnt have any upgrades from the older models🤣
if you had to pick between this and a Highlander, which one do you think is better overall?
That is like asking which would you rather saddle up, a horse or a donkey.
I personally like the Rav4 because I don’t need all the extra space of a highlander! Both are fantastic vehicles though.. can’t go wrong either way
yes,agree both that’s good car
I heard that people complaint about noisy when drive.. Is there anyone experience??? I wants to buy..but too scare..
@@kellynguyen7838 We test drove one for a whole day and night and we did not notice any noise except maybe when we opened the sun roof.
Good job young lady. Good info without the B.S.
Thanks glad you liked it! Facts only, no fluff 😎
Is the remote start still subscription based for the 2023 XLE premium?
Yes it is!
@@tracksandtrees what a shame

There is a button that looks like an A with a half circle around it - this is the auto start stop switch 😊 you will see it in my video at 8:00 mins in - it’s to the right of the passenger’s heated seat
Does the passenger side have manual seat adjustments!
Yes it is manual! Only the Limited model has a power adjustable passenger seat. I actually just made a video on this yesterday so I will post it soon!
Any kind of wind noise in highway?
I too am curious about this
Hey there! I find they are quite quiet on the highway! The Hybrid option would be even more quiet if you were looking for minimal noise 😊
The noise is way too much while driving on the highway. I just got mine 3 days ago
Have had mine for a month. There is a lot of noise while on the highway, but I just turn the music up. lol
Crazy highway noise! 🙉
I love you❤
nice car. i want xle premium
Thanks for watching! Yeah they sure are nice hey! And this year they made them in a Hybrid as well! Hope you can get one when you’re ready! 😊
me too,but HYBRID you have to wait around 9 months,even the dealers can’t guarantee you the timeing
Me too, I’m in the market right now
@@fantasybaby007 maybe I switch to MAZDA
Here’s my question, are you married? 😉 Just kidding. Thank you for the detailed tour of the rav pre. it was very helpful.
Are the windows tinted?
Yes in the back! Illegal for front driver/passenger windows to be tinted in bc
Best walk around ever! Mine was built 6/29/2023. Should have been here today?!! 😡.. lol.. Will be in 7/24. Because of the transport schedule pushed back.. I can wait? Lol😊
my next car. need 0% financing to get me in.
Might have to wait a while on that one haha but yes such great cars!
do you own this make of car for your personal vehicle?
I have a 2005 Rav4 with over 300,000km! 😊
How much is this
In Canada the current MSRP on this model in Wind Chill Pearl is $38,645 CAD
The only thing that drives me away from this vehicle is the infotainment system.
How much Is the cost of this Rav 4
Current MSRP in Canada is $38,645 CAD 🙂
in NEWYORK city with taxes and motor vehicle fee around 42,000 US dollars
it is as Beautiful as your eyes.
