Why 2024 RAV4 Hybrid SE is the One to Buy!

This is the 2024 Rav 4 hybrid SE and I’m going to show you why you just might want to buy it we’re looking at a Cavalry blue 2024 RAV it’s early in the day so we’ve still got some frost on the car but it kind of shows a cool contrast

I mean we don’t drive our cars in perfect condition so why not show it when there’s Frost besides I wanted to get the video out early but anyway let’s look around here now you could also choose the Rav 4 hybrid xse but that one costs more has more features but it

Costs more and how much does a Rav 4 hybrid SE cost well we’re going to find that out we’re going to look inside the car in a little bit more detail than we’re doing now we’re going to look outside the car show you some features plane

And then we’re going to find out if this is worth it is the value in features worth what it costs the window sticker I show you at the end of the video will tell us that this one starts at 344 plus delivery and we’ll see what that costs too now if you get

The xse hybrid the hybrid xse that’s going to be 373 so about $3,000 just a smidge underneath that more so I’ll explain a couple extra features that you might get on xse we’ll talk about that plus I’ve got a full head-to-head video that you can see at the end of this

Video oh if you get the xsc it’s going to come with a two-tone gloss black roof we don’t see that here we’ve got the gloss black accent in the back the black roof rails that’s all there I don’t see a moon roof must not have a moon roof huh

So we’ll see more black accents on an xsc this one to me has plenty in fact it really highlights that Cavalry blue what about these wheels how about 18-in gloss black alloy wheels here got a little bit of delivery dust on it those are pretty sharp right and look

At it has turn signal indicator don’t take that option lightly some cars don’t have it it has blind spot monitor auto lock and unlock on the front doors we’ll go around here to the front there’s got to be something else to see hey look how dark blue it looks

In my shadow I’ll try to get out of the way here for you guys ooh LED headlights there’s the turn signal right there pretty neat stuff we’ve got gloss black accents all the way throughout it’s a good looking car and it doesn’t cost as much as xse

So which way you going to go what’s the fuel economy well it averages to 39 that’s getting there by getting 41 in the city 38 on the highway 39 combined 14.5 gallon fuel tank and it’s right over there I feel like somebody who’s guiding in a plane right over there in

The driver’s side 2.5 L 4-cylinder engine matched with CVT continuous variable transmission 219 net Hybrid horsepower a gasoline one would get you 203 horsepower so little bit of a bump up there it also has all-wheel drive this is the OnDemand all-wheel drive and that means it use

Power from the front wheels mostly until it loses traction and gets a little slippery then it’ll send wheels in the back the power so we’ll get torque on all four wheels you’ll find disc brakes in the front you’ll also find disc brakes in the rear with multi-link rear

Suspension and that means it tightens up going on tighter curves and then more responsive and then smoother on straightaways like the highway let’s keep going a Rav 4 in 2024 is going to have Toyota safety sense 2.5 so we’ll see camera technology here radar technology here and that means you’re going to have

A lot of safety features like Lane centering Lane keeping the radar cruise control personally I like the road sign assist that way it shows you that you’re approaching a stop sign do not Center yield speed limit signs and it’ll even alert you visually or audio cues letting you know that whatever speed limit

You’ve set the threshold so if the speed limit is 55 and you’re going 61 it will alert you that you’re going above that speed limit that you have set so you make sure you don’t get any tickets or be unsafe and remember it’s all about

Safety ssss a a a a f f f f e e e e TT TT y you can dance if you want to you can leave I’m just kidding I’m not going to sing that I guess in the name of keeping cost down we’re not going to

Have a handsfree power lift gate we’re also not even going to have a power lift gate so you won’t see that on the key we got lock and unlock right here but look there’s no back power hatch so remember don’t expect that because it’s not necessarily going to be there it’s

Not going to be there all right so here we go we’ve got the hybrid symbol here the wiper going swish swish swish backup camera and then we’ve got some gloss black and silver here a pretty nice combo for me and then two exhaust ports down below by the way I’m filming this

Video thanks to the inventory at Fred Anderson Toyota you can check out their inventory at Fred Anderson toyota.com they hooked me up with all my inventory so I really appreciate them very much we’ve got tiedowns a tel cover so it can hide belongings when you’re on trips and

Things like that you don’t want people to see good amount of space in here though nice deep space put that seat down just like that put this seat down just like that we’ll take this down there we go this is like one of those HD TV movies where or TV shows

Where I’m showing you the final steps the whole steps and I know the burning question is does it have a spare tire well it does right underneath here we got a spare what kind of features and amenities will people in the back seat have well they’ll have a little bo

Bottle holder right here I see you there kind of goes back just a hair bit good silver accents that breaks up the all black interior so does the blue stitching now if you get the xse that’s going to have black with blue but it’ll be softex with a fabric sport insert so

That’ll be the difference there different interior no pocket here but there is a pocket there so I guess this kit is the favorite and then we’ve got USBS rear air ooh I like that very nice and then what about this right here well we’ve got nice surface

Area kind of firm but not hard got to figure out where to put our arm don’t we and then latches for child safety seats look at the pattern in the seats comes off as a black or a gray accent depending on how the sun’s hitting it and then inside

Here ooh nice bottle holder goes back a little bit more than the people in the back back seat will’ll get and then oh we got a storage shelf that’s pretty cool cuz we got to store our shelves I mean something like that you know this one also has the upgrade of the LED

Interior lighting this is a Southeast Toyota region but it could be something that your region has so you might want to ask and see if you want that ambient lighting and look you can adjust it you just kind of tweak it and then you can set up some ambient Lighting in your

Vehicle I like having that feature I just like setting the mood I guess I know it sounds cheesy but that’s what I like that’s what I want what I want here we go with the ambient lighting what I want nice deep cup holders here this is not a power adjustable

Seat okay so passengers are going to get the slide rule seats are very comfortable have good side bolstering doesn’t wrap around you like a sport seat but it is like I said it’s pretty comfy leather wrapped steering wheel here and it’s going to have more stitching but it won’t be blue like you

See on the rest of the car the multimedia system this is an 8in multimedia touchscreen you’ll do Apple carplay and Android auto they’ll be Wireless every little step I take we’ll be together girl so we can switch it just like this it’s touchcreen so I can look up different pieces of information trip

Information energy flow when are we using gasoline when are we using electric you can kind of optimize how you drive let’s do music and then we’ll scroll right there so that’s kind of nice it’s a good little system it’s intuitive you can do advanced voice commands all over the freaking place

They have a ton of them I like the nice chunky dials here they got grips on them too so it won’t slip it’s a grip so you won’t slip five USBS ports in here USB’s ports ub’s all right I’mma Be I’mma Be I’m I’m I’mma Be black ey piece EV mode

For all electric just short times and slow speeds under 25 Eco sport normal let’s get up here into this one and see if I can show you those Drive modes here we’ll just kind of flick it over that’s going to be the sport that’s going to be

The Eco this is going to be the normal it’s the new normal on this multi-information display we’ve got good pieces of information here nice big screen all the way across it’s not the fully digital 12.3 in screen that you can get on other things but it does have that so let’s go to

Settings can do the meter type do you want to do analog or do we want to do H let’s go back and get it back to digital because I like that and I think people buying it would probably choose the digital so we’re going to do that that’s what we’re

Going to do man all right that’s the fuel mileage right now I’m just sitting here burning fuel so it’s going to be lower and we haven’t even driven the car very much at all has what 53 miles on it so not much of a sample

Size this also has a trail mode so it minimizes wheel slippage as we can say come up here we’re in trail mode now see the rocks and we’ll go to normal mode but then back to Trail mode so you could take it on certain paths and things like

That maybe not all that treacherous but you can certainly take it where ever most people would take their vehicle have a little fun all right this is the that’s me with my camera we’ve got nice big dimming mirror here that’s huge sunglass holder safety connect and we’ve got an

Extra microphone here it’s on both sides cool and a slider so we can might as well be blocking out the sun I’m going to show you a little tip about a VIN number here as we Explorer a Rav 4 hybrid SE window sticker look at

The first digit the first one is a j that means it’s made in Japan if it was a two it was made in Canada it was a four Georgetown Kentucky so that might give you some Clues as to the origin point do a little car genealogy there all right these are
