I'm very pleased with the cargo space, build quality, SUV height with sedan quality ride, all the tech and safety features.pretty much everything about this car. In fact, I often wear a hat while driving with no issues. Maybe add some carpeting for added noise dampening if that's an issue? For me it is not.Īlso, some reviewers caution that headroom and legroom might be limiting factors for taller drivers.
Some reviewers complain about the vehicles being noisy, but I find the 2022 model noticeably more quiet than its 2016 counterpart. I'm going to upgrade the OEM Dunlop tires for better cornering and traction in inclement weather conditions. The on-demand AWD is plenty capable for moderate off-road and snow travel adventures. The acceleration improvement is a welcome change on the highway when passing and generally getting out of the way. The added power is going to help especially with ascending the mountain roads. My driving environments include flat Florida highways and suburban roads, seriously twisting, steeply inclined mountain roads in mid-Atlantic ski country, and some light off-road routes to out-of-the-way fishing spots. Pretty much everything is a step up from the 2016 hybrid (and I liked that one a lot): A more refined ride, superior gas mileage, much improved punch/acceleration, increased horse power, higher ground clearance, interior ambient lighting, excellent and additional technology appointments, and more. Now that I've driven the new model, I realize I would have waited the months it would have taken if I had to place a cold order. I'm feeling particularly fortunate acquiring this vehicle when I did. As I write this, gas is now getting closer to $5.00/gallon. Gas prices had just spiked to $4.00/gallon, so the few hybrid vehicles the dealer was able to get were being immediately gobbled up. A rare dumb luck case of being at the right place at the right time. Further, there was essentially no waiting time as the dealer happened to have one available (due to a cancelled order) with essentially every feature (even color scheme) I would have specified. The trade-in offer for my 2016 was just too juicy to ignore, even while I had to pay the full MSRP for the new one. I traded in my 2016 RAV4 Hybrid Limited for the 2022 version of the same model and trim.
