The 2016 Toyota RAV4 is a compact crossover SUV that offers a spacious and versatile interior, good fuel efficiency, and reliable performance.
Our family had too much fun rolling around in the 2016 Toyota Rav4. The one we drove was fully loaded and the kids appreciated being pampered for a week! It was priced at $37,022.00.
2016 Toyota Rav4 Review
I averaged 21 mpg driving around town and thought it handled really well.
You can take a walk thru the 2016 Toyota Rav4 with me in this video. The video is not great quality since it was originally live-streamed through Periscope.
Bird’s Eye View Camera with Perimeter Scan
There are 4 cameras on the car and they work together to give you a 360-degree view when you are backing up. This was by far my favorite feature. You can see everything around the car as if there was a camera hanging above the car. The cameras also give you great parking assist and lane departure assistance. The only downside is the beeping on the parking and lane departure assist is obnoxious.
