I love this car!
I have been driving this car for 10 years now and I still love it! It is incredibly reliable and handles Canadian winters easily. I always feel prepared for the weather. And the Toyota staff is very helpful whenever I have needed them.

Dependable and Reliable
If you want a vehicle is reliable, looks good and will retain its value, this is it. We've used ours for camping and summer vacations, going to the office, hauling loads of soil, and going to the theatre - a versatile vehicle for many purposes. When it snows and others are getting stuck, I simply press the 4X4 button and all is fine. Check consumer reports for yourself though, I did. We plan to buy another RAV in the future.

Great Family car fr any event
Well made Model.
I have this car about 3 years.
Never have any issue, it is a pleasure to use it on a heavy snowy and slippery road.A big difference from a regular car.
Very easy to drive comfortable and reliable.
I also like the usage of gasoline in town and on the hw,

4 x 4 go cart
When I first bought this vehicle it felt like a go fast go cart. Now at 160,000 kliks it still runs strong. Only problems dealt with a whiny transmission which the dealer replaced under warranty and gave me a loaner. I had some difficult tuning in the Blue Tooth and it still is not nearly as good as my 2014 Corolla S. The dealer installed back up beeper sensor never worked well, so I had it disconnected. It was annoying and it went back to the dealer 3 times. YES ... I would buy another one. It's been strong and reliable. The Factory battery and tires wore out in 2 years and 35 k. Replacement battery & tires much better. Love It!

Most useful Vehicle
Besides being able to drive it in any terrain, it fits pretty much anything. Supplies and equipment for a camping trip, or a three cushion couch when moving to a new place.
The limited is very nice inside too with its metal trim, leatherish seats, and black accents.
Most of all it is reliable. Can't think of one time where I was nervous taking it on long road trips or adventrues.

Great small SUV
We bought this car brand new and have been using it for 6 years. It's a great design in terms of ergonomics, looks, reliability, comfort, and cargo space. It has a nimble yet very economical 4-cylinder engine and it is well equipped even as a base model. Perfect for family getaway as well as daily commute. It is a very reliable vehicle (zero breakdowns over the 6 years) and served us very well. Just checked the newly redesigned RAV4 and we were very disappointed. The new car lost a lot of cargo space (the spare wheel inside) and the overall design (especially the front) gave us an impression of being unfinished. We'd rather get the previous version of the car (although used) than the new unconvincing design...

Amazing Car
I bought this car as brand new directly from the dealership and have been using it for 5 years. It's amazing car, beautiful design, comfortable and as a 4-cylender SUV much less than other SUVs gas consumption. I love it. If I didn't have to move from Toronto, I would never sale it.

Reliable and adaptable vehicle
We've had this car for 4 years and it has never let us down. The manufacturer is very responsible about posting and fixing any defects. Only complaint is fuel efficiency, but we have a V6 so it is a given. The vehicle accommodates 2 sleepers in the back if you are a camper, so no need to fear bad weather on the road. There is a reason why you see these vehicles everywhere you go.

Toyota RAV4 fun to drive
Toyota RAV 4 Limited I4 is a great car, is fun to drive very responsive.I m using for carpool daily commute 140 km.It is very reliable never went in the ditch even in the iciest conditions of Manitoba winter. Toyota got this I4 engine right. It is good on gas while has the muscle of a V6.Original Yokohama tires area bit noisy and wear around 50K, so I changed to BF Goodrich Long Trail tires which so far are OK.
The interior is comfortable with the dual climate control it is soothing especially in the hot summer days. Cabin filter is a nice feature, helping keep clean air with 3-4 passenger on board.Overal RAV4 is a great truck.

Stay away From Toyota RAV4
This Rav4 is aweful on fuel. It rides rough. The stock tires are very noisy. I wish I would have listened to all the reviews about the Rav4 instead of the salesman. He claimed this thing gets 37 mpg on highway. no where even close to that.

I bought a Rav 4 in 2008. Needed a 4wd and a vehicle to carry around the kids. It is great for taking camping loading up the stuff in the back. I have had no problems with the car since I bought it. Great smooth ride.

Everyone wants to drive it!
I have three cars in the family and everyone wants to drive my RAV4.
The RAV4 has great road visibility and handling. It is very comfortable. Everyone one wants to take it shopping because you always find a way to fit in your purchases. My RAV4 is Barcelona red and that’s special. It is the only car I have owned where my better half has approved of the colour!
