In their own words

I can not fault this car in any way. Reliability, comfort, speed, features, style. I honestly don’t think anything rivals this. The next purchase I make will be the Lexus RX or NX, I don’t care for “sports” cars anymore, this has surprisingly left all ‘sports’ vehicles behind, particularly within legal driving limits. The auto speed setting means I can travel without keeping my foot on the accelerator, the auto speed adjust keeps me safely behind any traffic without the need to brake. It’s surprisingly easy to park, I always reverse it in 1, only a handful of times I have to readjust (normally due to other cars awkward parking) A large vehicle to drive, certainly highlights other people’s errors when driving, but because of all the extra safety features, it soon predicts hazards before they occur. I have taken it on a long drive from Norfolk to Disneyland Paris in 1 long sitting, we got out of the vehicle at the end of the drive as though we’d been driving 30 minutes, I barely felt fatigued. Satnav is brilliant, which can rarely be said about OEM SatNavs. I really like the sound system, nothing particularly special, but it sounds brilliant. Many people comment on the silence of the drive, minimal cabin noise, as said, acceleration is unbelievable, motorway driving is a mere hum, tons of space & I believe this will see 20+ years worth of driving with good care, Toyota at its best. (Norfolk to Paris - was average 45mpg, £60 there, £60 fuel back) If you can afford it and are thinking about getting a rav4 hybrid, do it!

How reliable do you find the car?

It’s a Toyota & it’s lived up to Toyota expectations, no problems what-do-ever!

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

With all the extra safety features, this car is a real beaut to drive. It’s really fast on the acceleration, super comfortable & I have a weird comfort of knowing that if I ever fell asleep behind the wheel, I know it’d take care of itself and all passengers.
