This Year's Model Updates:

For 2015, the Toyota RAV4 is essentially unchanged save for a couple of new options and features. Specifically, there is a new Blizzard Pearl appearance package for the Limited, while the XLE picks up new wheels and the option of a power liftgate. Toyota has also revised the RAV4's frontal structure this year to improve the vehicle's score in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety small-overlap frontal-offset crash test.

Pros:
  • Strikes a good balance between ride comfort and sure-footed handling.
  • Roomy interior for people and cargo
Cons:
  • No engine upgrade option
  • Usefulness of available Entune smartphone features is diminished by cumbersome setup process.

    After reviewing competitive pricing online for Toyota RAV4s for cost perspective, we visited this dealer with our wish list and were immediately taken to a spotless 2015 RAV4 with unbelievably low mileage. We would describe the car as "barely driven". Anticipating a high price tag for this almost new car, we were very pleasantly surprised at the asking price. We did not hesitate to secure the deal. Our salesman knew his inventory. After listening to our requirements, he understood our needs and simplified the process by offering 2 possible vehicles that would meet our specifications. What we thought would be a stressful search for a "new" car turned out to be anything but stressful. Steve Skolnick, our salesman, was happy and we were happy after a short transaction. We love the car and our pleasant sales experience!

    I debated between the Rav4, the Honda CRV, and the Kia Soul. All three were similar with regards to safety, but there were a just a couple of things about the Rav4 that edged it out over the CRV and Kia Soul with regards to safety. They were minor, but for me they mattered. I will state that prior to purchasing the Rav4, I had been driving a Toyota Sienna mini van for ten years (another GREAT vehicle!), so I was a little more Toyota aimed anyway. Regardless, I test drove all the vehicles. I did really like the Kia Soul, but at the time I had three cats and one dog, and I was soon going to be moving almost 700 miles away, so I needed a vehicle with the storage enough in the back for four animals. The Soul has a roomy storage space, but the Rav4 is bigger with regards to storage. That storage space is probably what edged the Rav4 out over the Kia Soul. The Honda CRV is another great car, but they are pricier. The Rav4 had the space I needed, and the price I wanted, as well it was a Toyota product which I had become accustomed to driving. The car is comfortable, and transported myself and my four animals during the move comfortably. It is peppy and fun! Big enough that I dont feel swallowed by larger cars on the road, but small enough that I dont feel like I am taking up the road when I drive it. What would I change? Not much. I would prefer if the air conditioner had vents in the back and front. My vehicle only has A/C vents in the front. As well, Toyota has a thing about creating vents that cant be fully closed. This is an issue when someone up front is cold. So I would prefer if the side vents could close for passengers. However, this is a minor issue as typically I am the only individual in the car. Also, my particular model does not have electronic controls for adjusting the seat. I was quite surprised by this. That I would change, as it makes adjusting the seat a bit easier if the controls are electronic. As with my previous Toyota Sienna, the drivers window has an "auto" control on the window, so all you have to do is tap it and it rolls itself down by itself. With my Sienna, you could also use the "Auto" switch to allow the window to raise itself. My Rav4 does not have the "Auto" ability to raise the window. I would change that. These are the only things I would change, and they are extremely minor. They do not detract from my enjoyment of the car. Nor do they detract from the vehicles performance. Given that my vehicle is two years old some of these things might have been changed already. I would recommend a Rav4 to anyone who asked about it, and have done so. I love my 2015 Rav4!

    I still own this car while thinking of trading up to a Hylander. I was surprised over how much more room is in this model now. I am over 6 foot and fit comfortably. This is a well made vehicle. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a small comfortable good looking suv.
