2022 Toyota RAV4 XSE Hybrid: Is The Hybrid Worth The Extra Dough?

[@Aschoolbusandsimulatorfan2219]

This is my favorite Hybrid SUV from Toyota. Great job with your content as always Ben.

[@Av-fn5wx]

Oh Lord. Look at those mountains!! XSE Hybrid is amazing too!!

[@Will-xl7xp]

You ain’t getting a new rav4 hybrid in 2023 at msrp. They’re all at least 42k and up

[@downtoearth1950]

It is worth every cent with extreme care I managed to obtain 61 mpg in my limited over a 56 mile distance through a local range of hills. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

The XSE looks Sporty and Pop

I want to play out the numbers on a Rav 4 Hybrid vs Rav 4 Prime. I currently own a Prius and need another vehicle.

[@PostprandialTorpor]

The key numbers are markup dollars and months wait time

Watching this makes me miss my Rav4 hybrid. I got my 2022 XSE fully loaded in August then in October got rear ended :( It is currently being fixed but I miss my car

Slow Down. It’s like you’re in a rush to do a 12 minute video in 5 minutes. In the first minute, “naturally aspirated” was almost One Word. Enunciation is your friend. 😉👍🏼😎😁

[@QuicknSnappy]

Put the video to 0.75x, actually helps. Dude was flying, I wasn’t retaining anything haha

[@AeroDude73]

@@QuicknSnappy ok thx. lol. He does very good videos but he talks so damn fast!! This isn’t only his issue. A lot of car review guys have this problem. Where’s the fire?! SLOW DOWN. 🤷‍♂️😉

I think Ben is a good reviewer. I’m from NZ and the trouble is I can’t pick many of the words Ben says. Do all Americans speak this way, Steven. I’ve mentioned it before to Ben. But people keep saying I can slow the video down. But if you do that the voice sounds weird. Cheers. NZ

[@AeroDude73]

@@johnmartin7158 i agree. His reviews are fine. But when people talk so damn fast, it sounds unprofessional to me since words can tend to be pronounced wrong or sound slurred together.

At 4.10, what is that rusty looking thing behind the pedals? Cheers!

The RAV 4 Hybrid, if you are able to buy at MSRP, is the only way to go. The hybrids are all all wheel drive, and the xtra MPG's will more than pay for the extra hybrid price and the resale will be another positive point. The regular non hybrid RAV 4 base is not all wheel drive, and in the long run not a good investment compared to the hybrid models. We have a 2022 RAV 4 Prime model SE. 45+ MPG just on gas with a depleted battery and 50 miles just on electric from a full battery charge. Nothing comes close thats comparable to this, nothing...

[@gavboyforchrist]

This was a decent review. I was hoping to hear how the ride would be for different driver heights and a couple of other things. I could have missed it in the video though, because he was talking SO FAST. I actually had to slow down the video speed by 10% in order to follow along.

[@Kunani19]

You’ll definitely see a lot of these here in Hawaii… Yota Life 😆

[@bibibrazilian]

I drive half on the roads and half on the highways, I make about 420 miles per tank, is it the average? Because when I fill up it says that estimated is over 500

[@dgcin451]

You failed to mention that these vehicle has a fatal flaw. The rear high voltage cable corrodes in northern states. Toyota only covers if for 3 years. The repair costs 6,000$ to repair. There are class action law suits under way

[@RR-bv2pz]

Yeah law suit is only in Canada though not in USA :(

Glad I live I hot ass Austin Texas! Summer lasts 9 months down here. Road salt and snow? What in the hell is that?

[@blockmasterscott]

Is hybrid technology reliable as for a longevity goes?

Gooyquestio . ZI want to know.

[@kenmccune8843]

Toyota rav4 is a cool SUV love the head lights. Toyota keeping on building hybrid vehicles people will buy your vehicles

[@minogoda]

Me and my wife have this car and a rav4 hybrid both 2020 and the rav sucks assssssss compared to the chevy and we drove both till 70k+ now (we are field engineers so we drive all the time). The chevy is quiter, quicker, bigger, softer, More comfortable, the awd is miles better in snow. The rav always got stuck in our driveway. The Equinox I would turn off the traction control and im out in no quick. Not issues with the chevy other than needing to rest the chevy infotainment from time to time which is an issue I have with the toyota too. Had issues with the rav gas tank barley taking fuel, weird clicks from the pedals and around the car

[@PostprandialTorpor]

Set playback to 0.75x. 🤣 talks at 1.2x speed

[@rogertriv]

Definitely talkes way too fast. Never trust any that talks like this.
