New Car! // 2022 Toyota RAV4 XSE Hybrid

As an employee of Toyota Motor North America, these views are my own and do not reflect those of the company. Kristen and I are thrilled for 3 years in this XSE RAV!

[@taimurray04]

Man that thing is nice! My Grandma loves the RAV4! She’s had 6 within the last 20 years and they have been nothing but reliable. She is looking to upgrade herself into a 2019+ model this week and she’s very excited. Happy for you guys!

[@dtan9586]

I think this Gen is better for young guy. Whatever Enterior or interior. Style. And hybrid is more fast then super turbo.

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Excellent video Brooks and congratulations on the new car!😸

Congratulations on the new RAV4

[@sarmadmasood438]

Congratulations! You guys are lucky in US. I got same 2 year old 19k miles driven for £36K as brand new were on 11 months lead time and about £40K base variant (dynamic model). Mine does not have digital rear view, wireless charging, usb-c, heated steering etc. I wonder why is it so expensive in UK as compared to US and some features are not even there. Pan roof for $500, that's a bargain! Here I think its around at least a grand if not more! I bet you guys wouldn't have crazy annual tax rates as well for over $40K cars like we have here in UK. Enjoy your Rav4, its amazing!

7:55 crazy to think the 2023 LE will now get that gauge cluster while the upper trims get a full 12.3 inch display.

[@brorowcarwiz]

I can’t wait to see it in person!

[@dkmathur100]

Congratulations man, I live this car after camry hybrid

[@Eben18]

I bought mine in May and got it in May but disappointed that they decided to redesign it so soon.

[@Colonel_Mar]

Thank you for your reviews. Is there an all auto settings so that everything switch on or off on demand like headlights, drl, auto hold etc. I can't decide yet if I will go for a silver or a gray

[@omarzowila]

Are you gonna review the 2023 Toyota Sequoia when it comes out later this year?

[@danheckman8265]

2022 prime xse has cooling seats, Hud, bigger main display, more hp obviously. All led inside, all illuminated lights on doors. Not too much more but enough to make 2021 people happy. Rav4 hybrid xse is a gr3at truck

[@Issa82]

Looks amazing!! How many miles can the tank go before filling it up, the gas model can go to 330

[@jonathantrauner8886]

550

[@Unknown-ko7uj]

When you built the car did you do the paperwork then or waited until the car came in.

Would it be comfortable for 5’10” husky guy?

[@albertlee5099]

sounds like you are in Dallas!? Which dealership did you go through? I couldnt find one without the Dynamic Nav from dealerships/Distrubutors here locally in Dallas.

[@brorowcarwiz]

I’m just north of Atlanta!

[@josephmarsala441]

Can you do more videos on this

[@monsta777]

I own the exact same vehicle. Paid $40300 and getting 44mpg... awesome rav4

[@pleasuretokill]

I paid about $2k more. Markups here suck and stock is so low, they wont budge on price at all. The wait for these is 3 months or over in my area. None of them ever hit the lot. Its a dealers dream right now lol. I do love the vehicle tho. Fully loaded and ready to roll

[@monsta777]

@@pleasuretokill I purchased a 22 toyota gr86 premium from my guy and told him i like the rav4. He called me two weeks later saying an older couple had pre ordered and the husband passed from covid. He told me jump on it the same day and that's how i ended up with it. Got lucky in wait time.

[@brorowcarwiz]

How do you like the GR86? I want one!

[@monsta777]

@@brorowcarwiz the gr86 is an amazing little car. Excellent quality. Not high horsepower fast but VERY quick and agile, feels like your on rails. I can't imagine what it will feel like when I get to modify it!

[@brorowcarwiz]

@@monsta777 man, you’re tempting me!

[@lear6884]

Does the passenger seat go up? Like to sit higher ?

[@josephmarsala441]

Does this car have that hidden remote start feature

[@ariellehicks4660]

Which nalley did you get yours from the stonecrest one don’t have any on the lot ?

[@brorowcarwiz]

Ours took several months to come in. The Roswell location delivered our car.

[@narutonaruto2341]

Is that mostly city driving, highway or mix of both?

[@jennypreston9755]

Price wise, how does this compare to a base NX? I spy a Nalley dealer tag, love them. Have bought all cars from Nalley Lexus/ Toyota.

[@brorowcarwiz]

This isn’t too far off price wise from an NX 250 Premium. We considered one, but valued the hybrid benefits for similar money. Nice to meet you, other metro Atlanta local!

[@jennypreston9755]

@@brorowcarwiz love the videos! Been a fan since the MDX years, we had a silver ‘12. Love Acura and Infiniti, but still go back to Lexus. :)

[@brorowcarwiz]

Wow, 10 years! Thanks for sticking around Jenny!

[@kris856]

Hi - thank you for this video. I have had exactly the same car with exactly same trim for five weeks now - drove already 4k miles. So far I/ve been driving Honda cars with no isues whatsoever. Let me ask you/your lovely wife few questions regarding this very RAV4: can you find comfortable seating position easily? After few hours of driving I notove my legs and back start aching so badly, I need to stop ans have a walk for few minutes to get the correct blood circulation for the legs. Seating in the drivers seat for more than two hours I literally get a PINA - I start to feel literally every and each of these blue stripes on the seat... also the gas pedal is so awkwardly placed that my right foot starts hurting me after few hours of driving. Please don't get me wrong - I like the car (much less than on the first day though LOL) I just need to find out if I am a weirdo, who cannot find a comfy seating position, or if I need to change the car again.... BTW, I am 5'7, 72 kg. Thank you.

[@brorowcarwiz]

Kris, I’m sorry to hear of your troubles! We haven’t experienced any discomfort like you describe. We used to have the base model without power seats and find the XSE seats to be much more comfortable, though we have only had the car for a few hundred miles. I hope you begin to enjoy your car more!

How come you get the prime fog light? My is 2021xse hybrid

[@nolongerinuse5224]

[@arleynaranjo5131]

Do all xse have a panaromic roof and jbl system ?

[@brorowcarwiz]

No, this one has several packages.

[@rjbbtv959]

Where is the white??

[@dinushawilliamson2799]

Just got mine last week. Same car, but white. Waited 2 months for it, but its worth the wait. Im still getting used to with hybrid. Figuring out how to maximized the EV side of it...

[@RR-bv2pz]

Did you know about the cable corrode issue that people are talking about?

[@Eben18]

I paid over 41.5K with taxes and received way fewer features.

[@bngr_bngr]

Can you get navigation later?

[@brorowcarwiz]

I’m not sure to be honest!

[@ayabeihere]

Now they add a lock to the glove box... 😑

[@alonbuchris7355]

Hi. What about the radiation from the battery? Is it safe to my children?

[@brorowcarwiz]

That is a non issue. Hybrids have been on the roads for decades without an issue.
