Great instrument panel, nice shape but being under 5 ft the wing mirror was too close after my seat adjustment

This car is spacious for family outing. I like the colour and how it is maintained.

This car fulfilled all my requirements. I cycled with friends so I needed to put my bicycle in the back of the car in order to meet them at the various places we had decided to cycle around. It was comfortable to transport my wife and myself long distances, eg 100s of miles to visit friends and relations. Its music system was good. I would not have sold this car, it was sold behind my back, by my wife and son. The car was easy to drive and gave one confidence on the roads.

Great car to drive. Lots of safety features in a reasonably priced vehicle. Excellent for towing loads to 1900kg with this model/year (newer model has a lower towing capacity)

Toyota RAV4 (2026) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Appealing design, interior and drive | Engine choice is PHEV-only |
| Efficient plug-in hybrid tech | Some plasticky materials inside |
| Reliability should be superb | Higher entry price than before |
Quick Summary
The Toyota RAV4 (2026) is a sensible evolution of a popular family SUV, now exclusively available as a plug-in hybrid in the UK. With a generous EV range of up to 85 miles, it offers the potential for significantly lower running costs through cheap-rate home electricity. The latest generation features bolder design inspired by the Toyota Land Cruiser, bringing back character whilst maintaining the fuss-free driving experience RAV4 owners expect. It's practical, well-equipped with modern technology including the new ToyotaConnect infotainment system, and backed by Toyota's acclaimed reliability.
The RAV4 is available in front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive configurations, with the latter offering improved towing capacity of up to 2,000kg. The GR Sport variant provides a sportier alternative with firmer suspension and enhanced handling for those seeking more dynamic driving. Whilst not the most characterful SUV in its class, the RAV4 represents a safe and sensible choice for families seeking efficiency, practicality, and dependable performance without compromise.
Best for: Families seeking a practical, efficient family SUV with low running costs, those prioritising reliability, and buyers interested in plug-in hybrid technology with substantial EV range.
Not ideal for: Buyers seeking the lowest entry price in the segment, those wanting petrol or diesel-only options, or drivers prioritising dynamic handling over comfort and refinement.

The Verdict
You should buy the RAV4 if: You're seeking a practical, efficient family SUV with low running costs, prioritise reliability, or are interested in plug-in hybrid technology with substantial EV range.
Consider alternatives if: You want the lowest entry price in the segment, prefer petrol or diesel-only options, or prioritise dynamic handling over comfort and refinement.
Competitive Position: The Toyota RAV4 (2026) holds its own in the competitive family SUV market, offering a compelling blend of efficiency, practicality, and reliability. Whilst the Kia Sportage edges ahead on value and the Volkswagen Tiguan scores higher on user satisfaction, the RAV4's plug-in hybrid technology and generous EV range provide distinct advantages for cost-conscious drivers. The Honda CR-V matches it closely, but the RAV4's bolder design and improved infotainment system give it a contemporary edge. For those prioritising long-term dependability and lower running costs, the RAV4 remains a highly sensible choice.
