2023 rav4 hybrid review Page 7

The 2023 RAV4 Hybrid is the sensible shoe that turned stylish—calm ride, roomy cabin and a dash of electric shove when traffic lights go green. Real-world economy hovers around the mid-5s L/100km if you are not thrashing it, and Toyota Safety Sense keeps watch like a hawk. The updated infotainment finally feels modern, with easy phone mirroring and better screens on higher trims. e-AWD variants add extra grip without torching your fuel budget. New prices typically land from the low-$40Ks to mid-$60Ks drive-away depending on grade, though wait times can test your patience. Not thrilling, no, but for painless, efficient family motoring, it is the default answer—and a justified one.
