Hi all,

1st time post, last September almost purchased an RAV4 5th GEN (nothing was in-stock to test drive) then got busy '25 holidays come and gone. Then February found there new design 6th GEN and wife quickly fall in love with 2026 design and that we need to save money to buy one, put a deposit on May 10th and on July 4th got our new RAV4 XSE JP made with Advance Tech Package. This is my 2nd new car since 2012 Honda Odyssey, time to retire the Odyssey now, never zero issues for 14yrs @ 111K miles. Also got the Advance Wheel Locks for the RAV4. Finally joined the RAV4 family!

Next step is full windows tint and ceramic coatings.

We recently bought a used 2021 Rav4 XLE gas, replacing our old 2001 Rav. I notice that the 2021 seems to be lower than our old 2001, but according to the official specs, it shouldn't be the case.

I measure the ground clearance of our 2021 (the entire undercarriage cover seems to be the lowest), and it only measure about 7.25in (published is 8.4).

Can I get a sanity check with you guys? To those who own a 2021 XLE gas, do these height measurements seem right to you guys?

Undercarriage: 7.25

Front wheel well / rear wheel well: 31.5

Bottom of frame behind front wheel: 10.5

Bottom of frame in front of rear wheel: 12

Bottom of rear bumper by rear wheel: 12

Question: If you guys had to travel and live out of your car for a couple years, would you keep this RAV4 and get a tent or trade it in and get a truck or van? Or get a RAV4 with better towing capacity?

“Shadowfax” is finally home! After a long search and then a wait, I picked my Woodland PHEV up last Tuesday and took it straight to the shop for PPF and ceramic coating. What’s another few days, right?

Hi all! First time car owner here, so I’m learning as I go. Please bare with me. I noticed my RAV was leaking near the passenger seat yesterday. Upon inspection I saw that liquid was coming out of a dispenser and it was clear and odorless. I’m guessing this is water and this is normal? Is it condensation from the A/C or exhaust? Or is this something else I should find concerning and should take to the dealer ASAP?

Is this a fair price?

I think the caption says it all. Went with the Toyota Premium horn kit (08522-B1010) for my 2019 RAV4 XLE. Sure is a hell of a difference!

I was going through my display settings and noticed this display with a bullseye and an off-center red dot. Any ideas what this is? Not sure if it’s somethinh to do with alignment or center of gravity? I was the only one in the car in the drivers seat.

Anyone driving 2023 RAV4 Hybrid (or anything 5th gen…) feel like the AC just doesn’t blast as much as other cars? Don’t get me wrong I cool down within a couple minutes. But the air flow doesn’t feel nearly as intense as I’ve been used to.

Hey everyone!! I’m new to the group but not new to Ravs. My first car (left) was an ‘08 sport edition and I miss her all the time lol but I’m happy to have spent the last 3 years in my 2023 XLE, and hopeful for a decade or more with her.

Hey so I have a 2020 XSE my fiance and I camp for music festivals from time to time and I’m looking into a roof top tent. We only would use it a few times a year. These are the roof rails I have now would they be okay for the tent ?

Day 1, my wife picks up her new 2026 RAV4 Hybrid and brings it home. Day 2, my wife takes new RAV4 to work. She leaves work and gets t-boned by car leaving parking lot. Car has 30km on it.

Dimensions are 71x47

Showing off the new infotainment setup in my 2017 RAV4 Limited. It’s a Sony XAV-AX8500 running a World Cup match via a Fire Stick.
The floating display does stick out farther than the factory head unit, but I think it looks great overall. The OEM microphone and steering wheel controls are fully retained using the iDatalink Maestro kit.
