All Trims & Options Explained- Which RAV4 for 2024?

[@iftekharuddin]

This is probably the best video on the bajillion trims Toyota offers for the RAV4. Thanks for explaining all the packages in an organized and intuitive way. Appreciate it!

[@toptrims]

Much appreciated, glad it was helpful. Thanks for your comment!

@@toptrims Which model has the moonroof, awd and is NOT a hybrid? I also like light interiors and would prefer blue or green on the outside. Also, these don't have those kill switch things they were talking about on the news do they? Thanks for the help!

That was the best trim package breakdown. My cousin back east bought a 2024 Rav4 Hybrid and he called it the ultimate trim package. I think he may have the limited. We just bought a 2024 Hybrid premium a week ago and love it.

You should do the same breakdown(simplest ever) on other vehicles. Love it. Not long but enough essential info and none personal additives. Wish dealer would give e this types of info instead of asking how much can you afford monthly,😅? At least I found a dealer where I just picked up woodland Sienna at sticker price. 😆

[@PurpleMoon13264]

This video was exactly what I was needing. Thank you so much! I’m leaning towards a Hybrid XLE Premium with all the add on packages.

Thank you, so glad it helped you! XLE Premium is the sweet spot for sure, best of luck!

[@emmadimetrosky6048]

I recently put a deposit on the hybrid XLE premium with all the packages. I’m so excited to get it!

[@kenfrank2730]

Your video is very helpful. I've spent a few hours on Toyota's site configuring a Rav4 hybrid. I like the XSE the best. What I don't like is no choice for interior color - only black is available. Another problem is shopping for the XSE. I want the advanced technology package #3, because it has all the options I want but no panoramic moonroof (I don't want the pano moonroof). But I can only find the XSE with advanced tech package #4, and that includes the pano moonroof. It's frustrating to look for an XSE configured with the color and options I want. It's hard to find.

[@toptrims]

The option packages can make it pretty convoluted. Best of luck!

[@skillbuilder138]

Does 2024 RAV4 LE have anti-theft system with engine immobilizer?

[@toptrims]

Yes, the higher trims are listed as having an anti-theft system with alarm and engine immobilizer but all trims have the anti-theft system and immobilizer

[@davidj3048]

Hybird Limited vs 2023 version what is the difference?

[@toptrims]

2024 is expected to be the one of the last years, if not the last year for this generation of RAV4, so there should be very minimal changes as far as the major features and design go. I wasn’t able to find the full specs for the 2023 model on Toyota’s website but looking at the key features they look identical. Was there any feature in particular you were looking for?

[@aedenroland1030]

I just got hired at a toyota dealership and im using this video to study… crazy how they wont teach you a thing and you have to learn all on your own. Anyways, good video.

Congrats on the new job! That’s wild they just expect you to figure it out by yourself, glad this video helps!

Fantastic breakdown of the different trims. I only wish you included the difference in tow ratings between the different trims too. Thank you for this comprehensive and thorough segment.

[@toptrims]

1500 lbs for all gasoline trims except the Adventure and TRD which have 3500 lb limit. Hybrid models are rated at 1750 lbs. Thank you!

[@mamabazzz]

The 2020 "Limited" also has Dynamic Torque Vectoring.

My neighbor got a great deal on a 2023 limited and he put the Iron Man's suspension on it what's 17 inch KMC Wheels 2 45 65 17 is in maxxis razor AT 11's that thing looks great! The funny thing is the wheel and tire combo for each wheel weighs the same as the factory wheel and tire so he didn't gain any weight.

[@toptrims]

That sounds like a sweet setup!

[@c.mitchell7330]

Love the information, maybe a calmer background next time if possible! Just a bit distracting.

[@toptrims]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@ducksinthewild]

As someone about to change to a rav4, everything was great until I noticed that the only models that get the ventilated seats (absolute must as I live in a very warm place) were the trd off-road and the Limited. If the XSE had brought it, I would 100% jump on it for the sport suspensions.

[@toptrims]

If you were interested in the RAV4 Prime, the XSE is the top of that lineup and has more features but it is more expensive

[@jameschristofferson4878]

Does the adventure trim come with a factory trailer hitch? I know the tow capacity is 3500lbs for the adventure and trd

[@toptrims]

It appears the Adventure and TRD trims come standard with tow package which includes the hitch. Thanks!

Excellent video! Tons of information demystified very succinctly!

[@fd2824]

The type of traction battery also depends on trim: NiMH or LiIon. We need a similar comparison for Europe, where specifications are poorly written and options are very limited. For example, the only colours available for the Adventure are dark. And I live in a region where 7 months of the year is sunny. I am forced to choose between the dark grey Adventure with dark rims and a trim that has light colours but no vectoring.

[@toptrims]

Thanks for the comment! I’m not sure if it’s different in Europe, but for the US, all Hybrid RAV4 models have NiMH and just the RAV4 Prime model (PHV/PHEV) is Li-ion. Interesting they wouldn’t give more color options, although a lot of the more novelty color options change by model year here. Best of luck!

[@fd2824]

@@toptrims According to Toyota's comparison tool, the Hybrid Limited has a Li-ion traction battery, if I understand correctly.

[@hasonygamer6508]

In which things the limited is higher than the xse ? Xse from the outside looks better

[@toptrims]

XSE requires option package to add some features that come standard on the Limited. Things like the fully digital gauge cluster and JBL premium audio for example. Limited also has front ventilated seats and option to add heated rear seats, so basically more “luxury” interior features. XSE can still come pretty loaded though and agreed that the styling is a bit more appealing

[@johnamrich2713]

Awesome review of all the choices except the Prime SE and SXE. I was looking forward to see what options and colors of the interior and exterior. After listing to all of them I was patiently waiting for the Prime version. Sad 😢

[@toptrims]

We have a separate video on the Prime!

[@ismaelcruz3315]

I like the adventure trim because it is more truck like. Price is right for my budget and the army green is cool. I would like to know the ground clearance on this trim. I was really been waiting for the Tacoma but the mpg on this truck was very disappointing.

[@toptrims]

Ground clearance for the Adventure trim is 8.6" (same as TRD Offroad trim). Thanks for your comment!

[@ladye2818]

In Canada, the 2024 RAV4 Limited Hybrid arrives fully-loaded, yet in other countries, it is divided in packages. Do you know why?

[@toptrims]

That’s a great question. Automakers position certain vehicles differently in different markets for many factors including regulations, sales volume, demographics, supply chain, etc. Not sure about that one specifically, my guess would be they don’t sell many of the hybrid limited in certain configurations of option packages and/or the profit margins are better. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks to your video I used it as a guide when buying my RAV4. I got the Hybrid XLE premium with the all weather and tech packages added. Technically I didn’t need those but that was the only hybrid they had and already came with them. Also got it in blue print which again no other options lol since I needed a car right away. Turned out I like the color a lot more in person. The soft Tex seats are a little meh, not sure why TOYOTA’s seatings are so much worse than Lexus given that they’re pretty much same company. Overall I love the car. Just hope I did ok with negotiating the price lol. Sell price with all packages added was about 40k. In the end I got it for a little under 42k plus all the taxes and fees. I felt like I just went to war dealing with the dealership. They’re vicious. The initial pricing was almost 50k before taxes and titling! Crazy! I’m so glad I did my research. Thank you again for the great video.

Those are all good options!

[@xophaser]

Got the 2023 hybrid LE, because it was most barebone. Plus didn't want the key-less ignition. Toyota's safety sense and blind spot is a guaranteed option they added for hybrid le. Didn't see a single one at base price without safety sense included when I was shopping in the PNW. The option is a gimmick it is a standard (with the up-charge). but yes I find it very useful and should be a standard.

[@toptrims]

You are correct. The only trim that doesn’t is the non-hybrid LE

[@Hschlick84]

I think Toyota should evolve the Adventure/TRD Off Road trims into its own model for 2026 redesign. Drop the Rav4 name and make it ICE only. The Rav4 goes hybrid/plug in only as the soccer mom suburban CUV. Kind of like how Subaru has the Outback and Forester models. They have all the niches filled.

[@toptrims]

You are definitely on to something there

[@AlanGramont]

RAV4 doesn't use a CTV, it uses an eCVT. Though they both have CVT in the name, their technical implementations are worlds apart. An eCVT doesn't use a belt/chain, instead it uses electronic motors to control gear production. I believe the Honda CR-V also uses a eCVT.
