- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- The ALL NEW RAV4 Hybrid is her and it has quite a few surprises. Under the hood 2.5L inline-4 & two electric motors mated to a CVT transmission. One electric motor is connected to the front wheels and another for the rear to give you AWD capability. Not only has the exterior been totally redesigned but also the interior. You will find great fit & finish and also all of Toyota's safety features. Is the 2019 Toyota RAV4 the greatest SUV every built?

Got mine 2 months ago. Im always having to look back at my car when I walk away cus it looks that good.
Thanks for your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Did you lease it or finance it? Curious because I'm considering this car. Thx
I do the same.
Looking to purchase an XSE Hybrid. I don’t know if the dealers in my area are giving me the straight story. The discounts are not good at all. Only $500 off MSRP? It’s a 38k SUV! Where are the deals?
@@Vini-Pizza same here.. swfl ..
Halogen fog lamps not an issue. Ordered a pair of H11 LED lights off amazon for $30 for my 2019 Rav4 XSE and replaced them in 25 mins both sides. Much brighter and look great 💡😎
Thanks for that info but for $38k it should have them.
Yeah . No issue if it was a base or a mid trim lvl but for an XSE it should have been standard.
@@samlung2724 Thanks for the input!
Fog lights are garbadge. They don't do a thing. Unless you have one of those light bars from the 70's with KC on the covers. Lol
Hi James could you let us know which brand part # you went for
22:04, he drove through a stop!
I was in a park and it was covered my trees from my perspective. I promise I did not do it on purpose.
@@RaitisRides that is great as no other car was coming through the stop sign intersection. I am sure if you were hit or chased by the police you would not have posted lol. Thanks for the review.
Raiti's Rides I drive for a living and the tree branches are in the way for the 1st warning sign ,his eyes are FOCUSED on the road and knows he in a park, he notices the stop sign after the vehicle passes him because he is FOCUSED ON THE ONCOMING VEHICLES.
Lol you people are sad
I think it is my favorite SUV in the segment, I am hoping to be able to buy one next year, let's cross fingers.
You don't need LED fog lights. It's bad for visibility since fog is froze or white dense smoke. To cut through fog you need something yellow or warm light
According to my local dealer, this model is the most sought after in the entire Toyota lineup. Can't keep them in stock.
You are 100% correct!
Robert Senior Yes it is, there is a waiting list for one!!!!!
Mine said the same. If you want one, you most likely have to special order it.
@@JJustinXu funny, there are over 4,000 RAV4 Hybrids on cars dot com. Are dealerships inflating demand when there is none?
Lol😂 just causally rolls through the stop sign
I love how you “zonk” into reviewing mid level trim instead of high end or entry level!! Not a lot of people have the money go to the top trim, and they want to know how reviewers feel about mid level compare to other brands.
Really nice review again!!
Thanks I really appreciate you saying that!
Just bought this model, color, everything, except the panorama roof. Went with the moon roof. Loving it.
I would definitely be getting one of these if I still needed a new family car! It’s a grand slam. (We just moved back to NYC though, and definitely don’t need a car now so I won’t get to enjoy one of these.)
I totally agree with you!
Going to have to zonk you for going through a stop sign, lol...nice job on review, top of my want list.
Around 35K. That’s not a bad price point at all. And if I’m correct you can get a base model for around 25k. Hard to beat for a such a dependable suv.
You are so very right Chris!
Gotta maintain that situational awareness with that stop sign at 22:07.Still a great video though.Very insightful.
I thought I was the only one that saw he blew the stop sign. But he went to tap the horn? that's not enough for me ya gotta stop.🤔👍
I’ve had mine a few months, and the one thing that is a huge disappointment is mpg, I drive mostly in normal, around town, I don’t do much highway driving.. I was averaging 28 mpg, I went on two 3 hour trips and did some highways.. and got up to 32mpg.. but no where near 38-39 overall or 41 city... I noticed these things work best on long drives or like cabs.. but I do a lot of close short drives..
Funny how today I was thinking about a review on the Rav4 Hybrid by you because Im in the market for a new suv/crossover whatever. Thanks!
I am glad I could make it happen for you Jorge!
22:08 casually just drives past a stop sign 😂😂😂😂
I have an 03 rav4. I love the space. Looking forward to buy the new rav4 2019
I have had my 2019 RAV4 Hybrid for 10 days now, I am TRYING HARD TO LIKE IT.
Just drove 50 miles on an Interstate, I have used half a tank of gas since I got the car and the AVG mileage is up to 35 MPG and CLIMBING, GREAT, BUT.
It was a sunny hot day, lot of sun. But with the instrument brightness at 100% it is VERY DIFFICULT TO READ THE INSTRUMENTS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER.
YES DIFFICULT TO READ.
The information panel is almost IMPOSSIBLE to read without really concentrating, WHICH TAKES TOO LONG.
When I got home and drove into the garage I could read the panel PERFECTLY, BUT OUTSIDE IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT YOU CANT READ IT.
The Steering Assist feature is VERY ANNOYING or should I say STRANGE.
Steering Assist actually steers the car between the white lines on the road, well it makes slight adjustments. Those adjustments are NOT SMOOTH, a little nudge left a little nudge right, it does this all the time and it seems as if you are CONSTANTLY FIGHTING IT.
I will probably turn this feature OFF BUT I HAVE PAID FOR IT.
One feature I do LIKE is the Cruise control that adjusts the speed maintaining a gap between you and the car ahead. I was following a car at about 70 MPH, the car slowed to take an off ramp, my RAV slowed also until the car ahead moved further away to the right and the RAV steadily accelerated back to 70 MPH, IMPRESSIVE.
THE SCOUT GPS LINK IS AN ABORTION.
MORE REVIEWS TO COME.
Uh oh! Looks like Joe ran a stop sign@ 22:03. 🤫 Don’t tell anyone but Joe, BE CAREFUL out there!
I like the looks of the Rav 4 but wish you could get a V6 or even 4Cyl. turbo. Gas mileage is not a concern since I don’t drive every day. Good job Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Just watched the video and I was going to say the same. Be careful, Joe. Otherwise, great video as always and I love the RAV4 Hybrid, in particular with ventilated seats.
It totally was hidden by some trees. I was driving in a park that I had not been to in years. I am staying out of there for the next one! LOL
@@wardonobasuki5693 Good call with the seats!
Say Yes to the V6.
After owning a RAV4 Hybrid Limited since May, there is no need for the extra maintenance and moving parts associated with a turbo or the compromised fuel efficiency of a V6. The 4 cylinder, coupled with the constant power from the proven Toyota CVT with the extra torque from the electric motors is all that you need. Toyota hit the sweet spot with the Hybrid. If you want a turbo, buy a CR-V, if you're willing to risk the gasoline in the crankcase issue.
Pretty nice Rav4. May have to buy my lady this one. Great in-depth review as always.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
As far as the compact SUV goes, RAV4 is a very good looking one with ruggedness look.
My first hybrid SUV!! Awesome video Joe.
Sounds good to me!
Just bought the 2020 XSE and get to pick it up tomorrow. I live where we get a lot of snow and being able to start the car from inside the house with the app and having a heated steering wheel and wipers that de-ice is going to be so nice!
Picking up mine this weekend. How did the winter go for you with this?
@@mohcheddar I live in Michigan, so lots of snow and cold. It handled itself in the snow and ice very well. The gas mileage? Not so great. Granted I blast my heat at full 100% of the time I am out when it is cold, but my mileage only averaged 26 for the majority of the winter. Not to impressed with that. But now that spring is here I am back to averaging 35-36 per mile. But that mileage is also based on the fact that I do not drive like an old lady either, the sports mode is fun, LOL Overall I am happy with it.
OMG I was looking to buy this car.. glad for this review .. thank so much Man
I am so glad that I could help out!
@@RaitisRides xx got xo you soon of our a co
I have the same exact car. Same color same xse minus the panoramic roof n the 11 speakers... I drive in NYC and I sit idle a lot and currently I’m averaging 32 mpg... I can’t complain. I’ve had it for 2 months now and I drive around 400-450 miles a week and I’m currently spending 35 dollars on gas... Maybe that’ll help some of y’all put in to perspective of if this is the car for you... There’s stuff I don’t like about it also but overall I’m happy and it’s a lease so I’m only locked in for 3 years...
Agreed, I have an XLE Hybrid, had it 10 days, I am trying hard to like it.
Should have waited for the prime...
Hello their Joe I don't like CVT'S or Hybrids but looks wise and fit and finish its absolutely amazing looking , Toyota did a hands down awesome job. Would love to see 2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD PRO and a 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD PRO 1 day. Thanks Joe. Keep up the great work and reviews.
You are so very right! Those will be coming!
@@RaitisRides Thanks Joe
Jay Patel you’re the best!
@@RaitisRides No U
Thanks man
Hey joe! Can we get an updated review on the the 2020 RAV4 XSE
Toyota hit a home run with this new gen RAV4, particularly with this hybrid trim.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
After owning a RAV4 Hybrid Limited since May, there is no need for the extra maintenance and moving parts associated with a turbo or the compromised fuel efficiency of a V6, and I drive in ECO mode. The 4 cylinder, coupled with the constant power from the proven Toyota CVT with the extra torque from the electric motors is all that you need. Toyota hit the sweet spot with the Hybrid, I'm averaging over 40 MPG.
Thanks for sharing your great ownership experience and input!
The prime gets 90 mpge
Blue Stitching and blue spring is XSE hybrid specific
Yes indeed!
Limited gives you white stitching
I'm gonna have to give you a zonk Raiti, "I'm loving it" that's McDonald's bro!🤣❤️👍
LMAO! You are so right. I forgot it's I love what you do for me...TOYOTA!
@@RaitisRides your awesome!!
Bennie Mangle Jr. thanks man!so are you!
Lol
I love sharing the laughs!
Not sure how I missed seeing this video until now but great video and glad you really liked it. Back in August I got a new 2020 Rav4 XSE. I got the silver color with black roof and black rims. I really like this vehicle a lot. This is my first hybrid vehicle I have had. The 41mpg it says it can get really got my interest a lot besides how it looks with the two tone colors. Back in August when I got this our dealership had next to no inventory in stock cause everything was selling with all the good deals they were offering and was not sure I was going to be able to get anything I wanted then and they just happen to be getting one of these in and it just happened to be in the color I wanted. I was a little worried about the price being a bit higher and out of my price range and when it came in the sticker price was just over $36,200 which I could not believe. Back in May they had one just like this which stickered for $39,100 which I did not like seeing. I tried to figured out why this one was like $3,000 cheaper and I can think of a few things it does not have but nothing I really had to have or needed. I have heard this XSE model is really hard to get and this color I got is even harder to get. The Regular Rav4 I am not real crazy about and feel they are to plain looking and no real flashy look to them and then I saw this new model and new this is what I really wanted. So to be able to get this when it was the only one they were getting in and just happened to be the color I wanted and being really hard to get and having next to no inventory in stock was unbelievable. I am hearing that for Rav4 2022 models they are going to be making some changes to the body style which will be really interesting to see what they change.
I bought this with all the options in white at the end of June... I'm still waiting for it to come in!
It will be worth the wait!
In New Zealand they are a 4-6 month wait!
@@andrewstudholme3169 I just got an estimated delivery date of September 11-15 so about 2.5 months wait here in Michigan.
@@lodawnyoung lucky you! It will be a Summer Christmas present for me in New Zealand then!
Toyota is a great brand, they make such good cars and take care of their customers years after.
Another great video...on the towing capacity though the adventure model has a 3500 lb tow capacity. ✌🏽
That is a very good point!
Screw the hybrid being it comes with a CVT. Definitely get the gas powered with 8 speed is a much smarter investment. Although if you really want to tow I'd strongly suggest the 4runner. Does not cost that much more and its 1000X more capable.
Love the review! My wife wants one and I am trying to convince her to buy this model and not the base. I will show her this video.
Kenneth Smith Yes I suggest you spend a little more and get this!!!!!! This is the one the dealerships can not keep on the lots!!!!!!!
Ken, only buy what you can afford.
I just purchased the Rav 4 hybrid XLE for $10k less than the XSE.
I have the money but I will not spend $10k more for an auto with the exact same engine, hybrid system, transmission.
The extras do not add up to $10k and when it comes time to sell it you will take a bigger depreciation hit.
Just my 2 cents.
Thanks for saying that! I am so happy to help!
@@JJustinXu great point!
@@rncondie That is a great bit of info!
This is it for me, I’ve been researching for over a year now and I have to have this car. I’m stuck waiting for one to stick around long enough to buy. I’m considering contracting one. I have a cousin that does finance at a Toyota dealer, gonna have to give him a call soon
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Toyota's web site says they're having a clearance on the 2019 Rav4 and are offering $1500 incentives.
GRR
WHERE MY 2019 FORM
THAT NO FAR
Thanks for taking my video suggestion!!!!!!!!!! Love this car averaging 55-65 mpg it’s a really wonderful car I got mines in Blizzard Pearl with the panoramic sunroof!!!!!!!!! I also caught some people looking at my car when I first got it, I still do get looks which means the car does look nice!!!!!!!!! (Also I didn’t get any notification for your video)
I want to get one and install "open pilot" on it. Have you heard of that? I think that would be great
Of course! I love bringing the reviews people request!
@@joesiph8021 Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Would you recommend getting the base model Rav4 Hybrid or base model Honda Insight?
Hey Raiti, appreciate your reviews top notch! In your opinion if you were to choose from a subaru crosstrek limited loaded or a toyota rav4 hybrid xle which would you pick? I've been going back and forth for a while. Drive 450km/week with snowy drives in the winter months. Any help would be appreciated thank's.
Nice ride, where is that park anyway? Thanks for the great review, it helps a lot of consumers to decide for that big purchase.
It is Safety Harbor FL!
@@RaitisRides he wants to know where its at so he can report you for running a stop sign
Great video! Quick question though, does the sport-tuned suspension make a big difference in handling and comfort over the standard suspension of the Limited Hybrid, for example? Keep up the good work!!!
I totally felt like it did, especially from the base Ravt that my wife and I rented!
I don't find the XSE suspension to be very firm, I'd say 5/10 firmness. Other models have 4/10 firmness IMO. I put 19" wheels on my XSE to improve handling/cornering so it's decent. I'll still be looking for after-market stiffer springs when they become available.
@@RaitisRides I see! Thanks for the info and keep up the great work!
@@James-rd9mo That really helps! I was worried that it might have made the handling better but at the expense of ride quality (comfort). Thanks for the info! :)
Thanks for that great input!
Toyota: We have a RAV4 for you Raiti I think you’ll like it!
Raiti: welcome back to the channel Guys
Toyota Stonks Go up.
Either way I do love this new trim of RAV4. Not everyone is a big fan of the CVT that is true but the way Toyota has made it work? Beautiful really it’s a piece of art.
Thanks Josh for this awesome comment!
Why is everyone doing these multiple person conversations ?
Does this SUV still has issues with gas tank and trasmissiion, and is it only on the 2019 hybrid models? Iam buying one this weekend but after reading some comments about this issue iam hesitant now
Another great review! Tough choices as this one is now sandwiched in between the CRV and RDX for me. Gonna be a tough pick!!
Thanks Mike! You are so very right!
Mike Fisher I go for the RAV4! Love the mpg!!!
Mike Fisher I had the same “problem” I had a 2013 RDX WITH 48 k miles LOVELY CAR.
I have never owned a Toyota before, I’m a Honda guy.
So should I get a new RDX, it would cost $27k with trade in.
CRV is great, nice price but no Hybrid.
So it came down to the RAV 4, for around $18k.
After 10 days I am trying to LIKE the RAV.
THERE ARE 11 different variants with confusing options that make it almost impossible to understand WHAT YOU ARE GETTING.
Does Scout GPS Link sound like a GPS Navigation System, well it isn’t.
If I could prove that the salesman said IT WAS, HE DID, that dealership would get the car back.
Don’t get me wrong it is a great car in many ways, but the buying process was NOT A HAPPY ONE.
In some ways I wish I had spent the money and got a new RDX, GREAT CAR.
OK I ALREADY SAID THAT.
Best Wishes.
1:25 GEICO on the right side and tell you 15 mins can save 15% or more for the auto insurance 😄
LMAO!
It showed a STOP sign ahead and you drove right through it.
Pay attention.
It was covered by trees because I was in a park.
I saw it, but I wasn't distracted by making a video either.
Someone decided to blow right through a stoplight.... 🛑 22:05
Actually it was a stop sign and it totally surprised me because it was blocked by trees from my perspective in the park that I was in.
@@RaitisRides yet the camera picks it up clearly. Amazing.
Ruprick yup. I saw it too Very Clearly. lol
@@RaitisRides nothing is blocking the stop sign.Plus you had a warning stop sign which is also visible .Just say it, you blow right through .Don't be a girl and get some excuse.
Lmaao I came to see if I was the only one to notice.
The seats are not leather. They are a material called softec which is a fake leather. That’s a big zonk from me. Love the colors of the exterior. Not sure if I like the blue stripes on the seats. Love the mirror cameras. $38k seems a bit much for a compact SUV especially one that doesn’t have ventilated seats.
Excellent video once again!!! 👍
I drove one and loved it.Was having a hard time with what the dealer was giving me for my 2011 ss camaro and 2016 ecoboost mustang.
I can understand that.
Just bought a 2021 XSE, very impressed
One small correction. The blue front struts are for the "sports tuned" suspension, not to designate that it is a hybrid. I have a 2017 RAV4 SE, not a hybrid, and it has the blue struts to show that it has the sports tuned suspension.
Thank you for the info Paul! I appreciate you having my back!
Raiti's Rides You are welcome Joe. I really enjoy your videos. You do a great job.
High marks from many owners I've talked with, they say it's the best hybrid they had so far Nice review
Thanks for saying that! I totally echo those thoughts!
Yep I own this exact colour XSE Rav4. All in all loving this ride! Excellent suspension feel with new TNGA platform. Not bad performance either when you step on it 😉
Thanks for that extra info!
I am considering buying this as my first used car. I’ll do 120kms per day ride for work. How quiet is it on the highway/freeway? All opinions are welcomed.
I got mine a month ago and loving it!
Congrats! I am so happy that you are enjoying it!
Best looking Rav4. Makes the other trims look a but blander.
AGREED!
Raiti is it just the xse that has panoramic roof or can you get that on xle as well? Thank you!
No, you can get it on a XLE as well.

Nice review as always mate. If you were to choose between this and the CX5 Signature Turbo, which would you buy?
Thank you for the video. I'm considering buying or leasing 2020 RAV 4 Hybrid, therefore your video was very informative for me. My question is: were you able to see the LE model of this car? Do you think it is really worth going for XLE or XSE models instead of the base LE model?
buy the cheapest one less to go wrong.
Drove all, only SE cut it

The dash is looking good with a 7 inch display, but unfortunately there is no tyre pressure which would have been a good safety feature.

I literally test drove both the Adventure and the XSE model yesterday. I found the Adventure to be a little more engaging to drive even tho not quicker than the XSE. I also felt the seats in the Adventure where a little more comfortable than the XSE and its probably because the bolstering. But if anyone drove both, what seats felt more comfortable to you?
Kendall Alston I think all seats felt comfortable but I have to like my XSE Hybrid Seats!!!!!!!!!!!
@@JJustinXu it certainly is a nice vehicle
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!

In Australia this vehicle has a 9>12 month waiting list. Whether you grab it now or later depends on your usage i guess. If it’s for rideshare the almost 50% reduction in your fuel bill might make full retail price still a viable purchase..... cheers
steveba50 There are brand new one in stock cruise version selling for 2k more in Sydney. It is quite tempting to me. Should I take it or wait 9-12 months?
Andy Choi for me im waiting the 2020 model and some more stock. Cant haggle dealer prices with this shortage of stock
steveba50 believe me, it will become 2020 model even you order now
Hey that grill looks like an enlarged chees grater. Lol hahaha that descriptive vocab.
You may be right! ;-)
SoCal dealers are charging $1000 over MSRP and no one has any in stock especially the XSE. By the time I paid 9.75% sales tax, it’s almost $42,000 and I don’t even get full leather seats or Android Auto! I think it’s a better deal just get the RDX or even for a few bucks more and get a Caddy or X3.
OMG!
Turf Surf You should wait until 2020!!!!!!!! You can get the Limited Hybrid which has memory seats and leather seats!!!!!!!!!!
Justin Xu XSE is the best looking hybrid Rev4 thou.
Turf Surf Yes it is!!!! My XSE is in Blizzard Pearl and has leather seats. It is full leather but it just has blue stitching around the seats! If you want Android Auto wait until 2020 since a lot of Toyota models will get them!!!!!
Surf, $42k is a lot of money for a Rav 4.
California dealers are greedy, but the buyers are fueling the greed opening their wallets.
Love mine it’s amazing. Mine is an LE. The XSE was way too much.

22:05 you didn’t stop at the stop sign
I was in a park and the trees were tottally blocking it from my perspective. I did not do it on purpose I promise you that.
@@RaitisRides Um no. It was a clearly marked stop stop sign and easy to see. You were just focusing on your spiel.
There was also a warning sign at 22:02.
Nice video covering the features, however, it sounds a little biased. Does the narrator work for Toyota? What don’t you like about the car?
How many miles does the hybrid battery usually needs to replace? How much will it cost ?? Anyone?? Thanks
That is the million dollar question!
Lots of variables but apparently lots of taxi owners of Prius (same hybrid system) have gone over 12 years and 300,000 miles without having to replace hybrid battery 🤯 Toyota provides 8 year 100,000 mile warranty on battery so I expect it to last at least that long, likely quite a a bit longer.
So very true!
8 yr 100,000 mile warranty. California 10 yrs 150,000 mile warranty.
So at least 8 years
Come on, Toyota. Still feel like I gotta zonk it for the door interior design. That grab bar is way too forward to get 1-handed opening unless you shove the door open. Also - the lack of a grab divot/handle behind the window switches is a huge zonk. That could assist in 1 or 2-handed opening/closing.
Additional zonk: NO HYDRAULIC HANDBRAKE.
I totally agree with you!
It's sad that those are long cone.
Leather is not available on any rav4 2019/2020 model
Well, this video has me intrigued but, I’ll be honest, I’m complete ignorant on hybrid systems. The MPG sounds nice and I’m liking this car but I have a couple questions before I add it to my list of consideration.
Do you still have to plug this thing in like a regular full electric car, like a Tesla?
If yes to the first question, I make a few long distance trips each year, 2-3 of those to Palmetto Bay being my longest at just over 1,100 miles one way. Would I be able to make this trip on just stopping for Petrol, or would I also have to find charging stations?
No plugging-in with this hybrid or needing a charging station.
Raiti's Rides thanks, awesome to know. What’s life like on the batteries in something like that?
Sergei Ward 10 years. A little bit of research will answer all of your questions
Mona Harp that’s exactly why I’m here, research. Well done on proving yourself right tho.
8 to 10 years warranty
I took a test drive today. What's that thing in the way of my left foot?

Although you did mention it with the motor comment, I think its important to point out that the AWD system isn't a typical AWD system you'd find in a CUV\SUV these days. If AWD traction in snow etc.. is important to you I encourage everyone to do their research and decide yourself if its good enough or not.
You are so very right!
@ 22:05 he blows through the stop sign 🤣
It was a total accident. I was in a park and there were a ton of trees everywhere!
Raiti's Rides , I really enjoy your videos! It was so funny as you drove past that sign as you’re really into this subject of car reviews.
