2023 Toyota RAV4 XLE VS XLE premium review!

[@No-bull1]

There was a time not that long ago that vinyl seats were cheaper than cloth. I had a plain Jane GMC with vinyl seats and everyone thought it was leather. Anyhow to each their own but I find cloth warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, just not as cool looking.

[@benztech2262]

My wife and I just purchased a non premium XLE on Friday. Living in Florida we love cloth seats! Warm in the winter and no burning legs in the summer wearing shorts. We also don’t need a glass hole in the roof in the hot Florida sun. We’re quite happy with our XLE and we saved through the Costco Auto Program.

I have the 2023 XLE hybrid in this exact color ... I LOVE IT!

[@willsupv]

No mention of sunroof option on both packages.

[@aaronwilliams7786]

Am I the only one noticing the very large fender gap seam above the rear driver side tire? 1:31

[@nithinsimon3318]

😂 yes

[@rayg3354]

Saw that

[@donsho09]

Saw that right away e

[@West3720]

Also, the power lift gate is standard on XLE premium

[@yardboy3955]

Love the Premium !!!

I have a paid off 2017 Acura with only about 80,000kms on it and was just thinking today of trading it in for a SUV. Always thought I'd upgrade to a more practical SUV like the RAV4. Maple Toyota is super close to me and I would definitely get a good chunk off the price with my trade in - but 10 to 12 months estimated waiting time? Heck no, lol that sort of anticipation would drive me nuts with potential disappointments if the dates get pushed back. I'll just stick to my car for now and save the monthly payments. If the supply chain gets better in 2023, I'll think about it again.

Nice work bud. No B.S. and direct. Liked.

I don't want to wait, so I bought the showroom car, no options , just standard XLE.....a little bit regret

[@jessicasingh3858]

Does premium come with remote start

[@Mcjesus97]

The xle sells in New England for 35 k with all packages included which is basically the premium option without leather . Way better to go xle and not premium

[@littlet7556]

Totally agree. I don't see these options worth over 2k to add much.I ordered an XLE and will be arriving in a month or less, hopefully. Fog lights are useless form what I have seen in real world

[@Cars360-vs7bk]

Are the dealers doing any dealer discount? Especially after Tesla price drop

[@bcomingCanNoy]

Is this in Canada version? Nice review man👍

[@chegekinya2454]

Luxury nice RAV4

[@SeeingSparx]

Did you mention the power lift gate? Is that standard on both?

Worth to upgrade to premium package, As always up to the point 👍regards from Phoenix 🙏

@@ToyotaWorld how long is the wait time for non hybrid? Let say the xle premium?

[@ronripley9197]

I bought a 2021 XLE Premium in April after comparing it to the XLE. I really wanted the Softex as well as the upgraded 19" wheels and felt it was well worth the price. Love the memory seats as the driving is shared with my wife. Another difference is the XLE Premium had a leather wrapped steering wheel and gear shifter as well as a larger head unit. Is that still the case on the 2023 XLE Premium?

[@picklesandballs992]

Were supposed to purchase one this year its pretty similar to the 2021 one just a little bit more bigger screen and extra features

[@bklynpaul]

Nice review

[@mhsvz6735]

Excellent, thank you.

[@streveo13]

Does anyone know if the fuel economy is affected with bigger 19” wheels vs 17” wheels?

[@FacialVomitTurtleFights]

Probably not, Tire aspect ratio will be lowered to compensate for the increased wheel diameter. Overall negligible but will likely make for a bit harsher ride. As well as more expensive tires....

[@xssfun]

Does le have rear vents ?

[@Chunkiemerk]

Also I would like to point out there is extra options on the premium power lifted tail gate jbl sound system, heated seats and steering wheel back up mirror 🪞

[@ranmangolf]

Can you get the XLE premium without the moonroof?

[@nowtalal9938]

I ordered 2023 xle hybrid and now want to change to the premium package but will I move down the list for changing to premium LMK

2023 RAV4 CarPlay Navigation Issues while connect your phone to use the Apple Map or Google Map. The issues with their navigation over Apple CarPlay randomly putting them off-road, on parallel roads, or even off the route completely, like taking an exit ramp you're not on. If you are own one RAV4 2023, please test it out too see if you having an issue with the CarPlay. Toyota knew the issue. I don't know if Toyota will take this seriously or not, but it's been so long for them to fix it. I hope more people know about it and complain to your Toyota dealer and open case with Toyota Brand Engagement Center, so they can take action faster. Thanks.

Hi Marc, is it true that the LE trims means Low End? I went to my local dealer and they said the LE is Low End while the XLE is eXtra Luxury Edition. Btw, how long is the wait time on the hybrids now? Thanks.

Lol you forgot about the moonroof and the power lift gate for the premium.

[@sambathsan4886]

That standard for both XLE and XLE premium.

[@Wall.Street.AV.]

@sambathsan4886 incorrect. I had to go with the xle premium because I wanted the power lift door and the soon roof.

[@sambathsan4886]

@@Wall.Street.AV. in canada those are standard with the XLE base, might differ depending on the country. The premium gives us softex seats, 19” alloy wheels, fog lamps and memory powered driver seat.

[@user-bi7bf9nd8k]

​@@sambathsan4886agreed. I just bought an XLE premium in Canada. Although the dealer mentioned it was a "moonroof" which is better than the XLE "sunroof". I have no idea what the difference is because they are entirely irrelevant gimmicks regardless.

Get a RAV4 XLE Hybrid unpackaged and use the $2500.00 savings on customizations. You'll get only what you want.

Damn, I wish I upgraded to the premium. But too late. As expecting regular XLE Coming in early April.
