I'm in EU and still waiting for my 2021 2.0 gasoline silver model ordered late august, not even being built yet but scheduled for late december. The blue looks pretty nice but would like to see it in real lighting though. Headlights look pretty awesome! Black rims are always an eyecandy, but I hope to get those later down the road for summer wheels. Nice video as always Jeff, thanks!
I just wish Toyota and Lexus didn’t make the panoramic moonroofs exclusive to the highest package on the top trim levels. Like I’d get the SE if I could get a pano on it but I’ll have to payout for a fully loaded XSE.
Great informative video Jeff! An SE Hybrid in Cavalry Blue would be just fine with me! Would definitely want the sunroof as well! I do like the new headlight design! Well done! Mark in Iowa.
So did they fixed the water leaks on the roof rail yet? Toyota drilled hole through the frame to mounts the rail but only plugged in up with simple plastic gasket, previous models has reported leaking after a while due to heavy rain or car wash... hopefully they fixed the design this year
I was set on someday getting a RAV4 Prime in Silver or the Dark Blue, but after seeing this Cavalry color coming out OH BOY THAT'S MY COLOR FOR SURE! Can't wait to be able to get one in that some day.
First of all i do not understand the changes , are those only visual ? what is the update on the headlights are they better ? is there updates on infotainment? what is new ?
2022 will be RAV4’s 4 year out. Usually that would mean and updated front grille, front fascia, cosmetic updates to the front and back. I wonder if the pandemic had something to do with delaying that till model year 2023. I wish Toyota could of addressed decreasing the road noise and high engine noise coming into the cabin. Some more or improved sound deadening material. They certainly know how Toyota’s Lexus models are much quieter. The small SUV is a very competitive class. I think the Rav4 will slowly start to lose sales. There’s certainly enough trim models to choose from. I give them credit for that.
Ya usually they change it up, but I think the pandemic changed that. Maybe next year will some more advanced changes. Rav4 is meant to be adventure unit, so you can engage with your car. This is how it differs from the Venza and the Lexus Brand. I like body noise, and engine feel and road feel. Lexus is amazing luxury brand, but all that deadening made it hard to drive in silence. Even the new Highlander had some road feel. That is why I think the Rav4 stand out.
Love the new headlights. I wish the Limited got the vertical fog lights. For the price for limited you’d think they would. I also wish they updated the screen. Another wish is electric side view mirrors that go in when you park. I’d rather these functional updates over new wheels 😏. I don’t know what to make of the Calvary blue. In some photos it looks almost light purple-blue. The limited needs new colour options! Like that green! Sigh, still waiting for my Limited hybrid. Fairly sure now it will be a 2022. In Canada.
I have a 2019 RAV4 XLE Premium in Ruby Flare Pearl and was holding out for the RAV4 refresh hoping they would do a nightshade edition like they did in Europe. If they sold the XSE in Supersonic Red or Blacked out then I would have definitely traded mine and bought one. Guess ill wait until they completely redo it.
Hi Jeff. Is it true that Hybrid is more expensive than regular gas engine when it comes to replacing parts? What are the pro’s and con’s? I’m in the market for Rav4
I'm still waiting for my 2021 or 2022 xle rav4 hybrid the color I want is RUBY FLARE PEARL with interior NUTMEG FABRIC with audio plus and power lift gate the dealer I gotta wait for it since it chip outage for being custom I can't wait til I get it
I wish the limited came in a two toned color. I like the xse design but limited features 😕. I also wonder if there will be a refresh in 2023 of the infotainment system?
Love cavalry blue...Those new headlights also look dope. I wonder whether we are getting those in Europe (Hungary) - I sure do hope so.Just placed order on a 2022 Hybrid AWD, medium trim level in Lunar rock color (called olive green here :) ) ...8 months waiting time yay
Its already past mid-December. Where is the 2022 RAV4 Jeff bro (i mean i know you cannot do anything) Quite frustrating that i couldnt buy a new rav4 for xmas/ny :(
Since the XSE comes with a 360 birds eye view camera, will the side mirrors include the automatic folding feature and puddle lights ? wish they had a cement grey color option on the RAV4s
@ToyotaJeff My local Illinois dealerships claim they are low in stock or have nothing…where else can I get this XSE or SE RAV4 Hybrid 2022 or brand new 2021??
Not exactly related but I saw a thread where someone discovered their 2021 Sienna had Engine Sound Enhancement enabled.(extra fake engine noise pumped in via the speakers). They were able to turn it off via software and the ODB port and said it sounded like they added all kinds of extra insulation to the engine bay obviously. Any Idea if Toyota is doing this on all their hybrids? I just see lots of complaints about the buzzy 2.5 engine and wondering if that’s all Toyota adding in noise?
I have a 2020 xse hybrid and I did a lot of shopping till I decided on the silver sky metallic paint. Blue print was too dark to really appreciate the two tone paint, Arctic white just wasn’t for me so I was left to choose between magnetic grey and silver sky- I would have been alright with the magnetic grey but chose to go with the silver in the end because the contrast really appealed to me. I do like that there is a noticeable contrast with the cavalry blue so that is a plus but I don’t like that it’s a paring of the blue gloss paint and the black metallic paint- would look better, in my opinion, to have both paints be metallic. But who knows… Maybe I will change my mind when I see a cavalry blue xse in person.
@@Spdracer the paint is doing very well- before I even purchased my car the dealership added a paint protective product which I had to pay for but I’m actually very thankful it’s on my car. I also purchased the body side mouldings so right now there is one ding on the body side mouldings on the passenger side, and two or three small dings in the black paint on the lower part of the midsection of the car from debris kicked up while driving. I know these little spots are there because I’m super aware and look for things but for the most part the car looks brand new.
@@Spdracer as for the question “does it get dirty frequently” - well, any car will get dirty if it’s not parked in a garage all day. I do not have a garage to park my car in at home and parking at my job is outside as well, so my car does get dirty. I do the touch less drive through car wash at my local gas station about twice a month and then about every two months I take it to a legit car wash- mostly for the interior cleaning and the tire dressing.
hey Jeff - I'm curious if you know why Tina Tintor's Rav4 went up in flames in the Henry Ruggs crash in Las Vegas? The frame of Tintor's Rav4 seemed to hold up pretty well for the impact and speed Ruggs was travelling, but for it to go up in flames is a little concerning for someone considering the RAV4. thanks!
Exterior is very attractive, the interior looks cheap and outdated by at least 3 to 5 years, lastly good luck finding one, I tried get one 2 years ago when I was looking for a RAV4, none of the dealers here got a hybrid. So don’t waste your time shopping for one, most likely you won’t be able to get one for a long time. There are plenty of other competitions available from Nissan to KIA. Shop around, Toyota isn’t the only game in town anymore, even for hybrid SUVs.
The RAV4 finally deserved a new, modern navigation system. It's so old school

Is there any improvement of the soundinsulation?
My goodness that infotainment looks like the back of an airplane seat.
Yeah! That was a totally downgrade 🤦♂️😓
Looks like toyota wants ppl to slowdown on rav4 as bz4x is on the way 🤣🤣
The new headlights are so cool!
Will they have the outside temperature on the display screen? Passengers want to see the temperature too, not just the driver.
I am glad it will not be exact like the XSE for paint, part of the reason i got the XSE trim this year was the 2 tone.
Cavalry Blue is really nice
I placed an order for an XLE Premium Hybird 2021, and now I’m getting a 22 instead! Hope it’s a good car!
I’d like 2 seat memory on driver side on XLE or XLE premium standard.
That or having a power passenger seat, which you have to go all the way up to Limited for; booooo
I just wish Toyota and Lexus didn’t make the panoramic moonroofs exclusive to the highest package on the top trim levels. Like I’d get the SE if I could get a pano on it but I’ll have to payout for a fully loaded XSE.
All good, BUT...what about better insulation to quiet the cabin. Love my 2021 Rav4 but the road noise is sooo unattractive.
Definitely like the new lights and new tire color options!
Black wheels are killer. Wished I could've been able to custom order them when I bought my '21 XLE.
Jeff Bhai. When will the 2022 RAV4 Hybrid get released?
Great informative video Jeff! An SE Hybrid in Cavalry Blue would be just fine with me! Would definitely want the sunroof as well! I do like the new headlight design! Well done! Mark in Iowa.
I feel like they could had done so much more with the rav4
Thank you Jeff, for the updated to the RAV4 Hybrid. Love the Calvary Blue color and accent lights.
I’m with you Dan!
I have a 2021 RAV4 Hybrid XLE, and the lack of illuminated switches has been frustrating. That's an important improvement. I'm a little bitter! :)
You can always purchase the illuminated switches and do the upgrade yourself, can be done in less than 10 minutes.
I would like Toyota to offer a white roof option for the XSE Hybrid along with cooled front seats.
So did they fixed the water leaks on the roof rail yet? Toyota drilled hole through the frame to mounts the rail but only plugged in up with simple plastic gasket, previous models has reported leaking after a while due to heavy rain or car wash... hopefully they fixed the design this year
Wow the headlights are so elegant
Live in central NJ. My Toyota dealership around the corner has $5K market price adjustment above msrp for each new vehicle on the lot
Sage green (on Prius 2019) or coffee colors (like the Subaru coffee).
Infotainment system is total garbage. F this. It would cost them like 300$ to put in a decent
One.
YES!!! I’ve been waiting for this.
Thanks 👍🏼
I was set on someday getting a RAV4 Prime in Silver or the Dark Blue, but after seeing this Cavalry color coming out OH BOY THAT'S MY COLOR FOR SURE! Can't wait to be able to get one in that some day.
Aww man... I just got my Limited Hybrid earlier this year lol. 2022 model looks really nice!
Congrats on yours!!
Have the new 2022 changes to the hybrid version fixed the gas tank issue?
Whew, everybody has something they don’t like about this thing. Is Toyota the new brand to bag on!
“Their needs are simple, they want it all!”
Is the Cavalry Blue usually a one model year only color option? I.e. will they remove it for the 2023 models?
will the reverse parking camera have better resolution?
Jeff has said “The roof is on fire 🔥”!!! 😂😂😂 By the way, as always great presentation Jeff!!! Holla!!!
First of all i do not understand the changes , are those only visual ? what is the update on the headlights are they better ? is there updates on infotainment? what is new ?
Dunno. Think LE Venza looks much better. Pricing is comparable isn’t it? Drives better and more comfy?

should not getting a TOYOTA! step it up!
When did you put your order in?
@@888Sonshine late August
Jeff, Call in the Cavalry, RAV4 needs a new color! Did they send you to the coast for the bZ4x event? I heard the San Diego Chicken was there.
I plan to get the 2021 xle premium with weather package. Looks like I maybe changing my mind to get the 2022 version. Thanks Jeff.

Hi Jeff. Is it true that Hybrid is more expensive than regular gas engine when it comes to replacing parts?
What are the pro’s and con’s?
I’m in the market for Rav4
It looks like Toyota discontinued blue flame for the 2022 rav4. Can you confirm?
Are all rav4 adventures hybrid?
in what year can I buy a Rav 4
How about describing the new is the new 2022 Toyota rav 4 prime?
Camry or RAV4 which one will bigger width from inside where 3 adult can sit comfortably
Thank you Jeff , love you bro
When is the 2022 Toyota Venza coming out and are their any changes?
I'm still waiting for my 2021 or 2022 xle rav4 hybrid the color I want is RUBY FLARE PEARL with interior NUTMEG FABRIC with audio plus and power lift gate the dealer I gotta wait for it since it chip outage for being custom I can't wait til I get it
Me too. XLE blue flame. Don’t care what interior. Don’t know how long the wait time is.
Great upgrade with those headlamps and foglamps!!!🔥🔥🔥
Will the SE potentially get the LED fog lamps too?
Hey Jeff, can the new RAV4 2022 be preordered? Thank you!
Switch out the headlights and do a color-change-auto-wrap and you got the same car. 😜
Will the gasoline XLE Premium have the new headlights?
Is SE expected to be slated between XLE and XLE Prem or XLE Prem and XSE?
I wish the limited came in a two toned color. I like the xse design but limited features 😕. I also wonder if there will be a refresh in 2023 of the infotainment system?
Look at the new Lexus NX infotainment system. This system is also coming to Toyota models later. But when... :-)
@@FuryanZ I have checked out the new nx's infotainment system its amazing👏 hopefully coming to toyota 2023
can you someone please tell toyota designers to change the cheap classless infotainment system pleassseeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love cavalry blue...Those new headlights also look dope. I wonder whether we are getting those in Europe (Hungary) - I sure do hope so.Just placed order on a 2022 Hybrid AWD, medium trim level in Lunar rock color (called olive green here :) )
...8 months waiting time yay
I don’t like the trend to black wheels. Would like to know if this infotainment will have wireless apple car play
Its already past mid-December. Where is the 2022 RAV4 Jeff bro (i mean i know you cannot do anything)
Quite frustrating that i couldnt buy a new rav4 for xmas/ny :(
So Audio Plus will be 9" in '22 instead of the 8" in the 2021? Will it be the one from the '21 Prime or a new multimedia system?
Where’s the recovery hooks on the rav4 trd? Come on Toyota get with it!
Does anyone know what color that 2022 SE is? It's silver and not the magnetic gray, right?
Can u do a 2022 non hybrid rav4 and trim levels...
I’ll try to but it’s tough to do when it’s hard to get a lot of vehicles together at once
Prime? Any news?
No nothing yet
Since the XSE comes with a 360 birds eye view camera, will the side mirrors include the automatic folding feature and puddle lights ? wish they had a cement grey color option on the RAV4s
Would like review of basic level, not so much all the high level vehicles
Is there a Hybrid TRD?
Will the 2022 XLE gas ( non hybrid ) have those headlights?
@ToyotaJeff My local Illinois dealerships claim they are low in stock or have nothing…where else can I get this XSE or SE RAV4 Hybrid 2022 or brand new 2021??
Have they said anything on remote start being standard?
Does this mean that rav4 will have ambient lighting? Perhaps I misunderstood
Cool background behind you. Lighting needs work. 🙂
Man I wish they kept the same grill as the 2021 I hate the new one

2022 RAV4 prices will be released in 2023.
Any news on the gas model Limited besides new headlights?. I was hoping for new wheel design or color
✨Super Jeff🇺🇸✨
The infotainment screen says one thing “Toyota just doesn’t care that it looks like something from 2012”. 🙄
✨Toyota 🇺🇸✨
Limited is the highest trim level? When was that introduced?
It’s been out for awhile
Can you give us an update on the 2022 RAV4 Prime?
I will as soon as I hear something
@@Toyotajeff Thanks Jeff, love your videos!

Guys guys guys !!! 2022 RAV4 models pricing available on toyota official website
what about PRIME mate?
I miss the older tire on the back style...
Wao que tal cambios... Ya no puedo reconocerlo... Que diferente está......
Can you get me the se hybrid in Calvary blue at msrp?
This is not the trim level I was hoping for. I want a Prime with XLE Premium trim. Or a Highlander XLE Prime.
Holla!! Like the SE Hybrid!
So the limited doesn’t get a cool color… WTF
Why they don’t make V6 again like the old one??? Inside look basic nothing fantastic.
why the cheap classless multi media systems whyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I understand that Toyota is going to charge for the start button, what the heck is up with that?
I hope they don’t make Limited wheels black.
Toyota: “Hey, do you like this Rav4?”
Me: “Yeah.”
Toyota: “Well, fuck you, here’s a new one.”
I want leather seats.
