Crazy how the prices have changed in the past 2 years
No more fumbling for your car keys in a horror movie.
Great comparison of both vehicles. Thanks for all your hard work very much appreciated!
We have the XLE Premium with the cold weather package. The heated steering wheel gets hot within a mile of leaving home. The lumbar support has actually helped me get over a week long lower back ache. I usually drive my old Tundra '07, but took the Rav4 on a 2 hr drive, cranked up the lumbar support, back ache gone! I had the seats on low heat too.
I don’t care about Rav 4 but she is gorgeous
Best review video Ive seen in along time and for so many reasons.
Excellent comparison. Just what I needed!
We bought a 2021 RAV4 XLE with the convenience package, we love it so much!

Awesome !! How much did it cost? I’m looking at XLE for next year.
Thank you for this comparison video!
Great video. Thanks for posting. XLE Premium gets my vote!
Rav4 2020 XLE Premium and got one for wife, it get alot of attention. Dark Grey color too.
One of the best car reviews!
The first ever car review show the front seat all the way back, thank you!

exactly! I was looking this review for a while
I wished Toyota would allow a black wheel and badging option on the XLE models. (Without having to upgrade to TRD model, etc.) Black RAV4 with black interior and accents=way cool factor!
Omg my dad has a 2020 Toyota Highlander XLE, BEST SEATS I HAVE EVER SAT IN!!!!
Thank you for your review. It is really helpfull video
very nice review, you are good on camera, knowledgeable and to the point. someone get a lapel mic, you could have a nice channel.
Great job, Christina! I usually prefer cloth seats to leather, but I may have to check out the softex material. My budget would prefer the XLE, but the Premium with the weather package definitely has some nice features.

Great review, Christina!! Can you do a review of 2021 Highlander?
toyota jeff camo was the best! The color matching top in lunar is nice, but the paints are the most stylish by far. 👍🏻
Thanks for the video!
Oh my, Christina you could sell anything! Thank you for the fantastic video…
So beautiful this will be my next car im switching from honda to toyota
Great job Christina!
Great information!!
This new Rav4 car is nice and clean. I like this new Rav4 car because it makes me feel comfortable and it smells like new car.
It is beautiful good looking classic yet elegant. I love it.
I have 2020 XLE nice car overall... I liked my previous car (Chevy Malibu 2013) better for getting onto freeway...ie. the way it accelerated was cleaner and had more get up and go... both are 2.5 litre 4 cylinder engines.
Just picked up my brand new 2022 RAV4 XLE Premium yesterday at Longo. I drove it 100 miles yesterday, I love the ride. If you add convenience package to XLE, difference isn't that much. I will go with Premium. And I did.
Very detailed video! Mahalo!
taller wheels does NOT necessarily mean higher ground clearance. more often than not, it means a shorter sidewall.

And a shorter sidewall means better handling in turns, but bumpier ride. I prefer the smooth ride

The Premium has SO MANY MORE FEATURES... this video compares a highly upgraded XLE to the Premium... but the standard has way less. THAT would have been a better comparison. I wish the one I just bought was $30k... but for the 2021 in the current market, I paid $46k, including dealer upgrades, $5k over MSRP due to scarcity and the extended warranty. Still super happy that I went with the Premium. It's amazing.
The xle and xle prem have somewhat analog gauge cluster vs xse and limited have that big digital gauge cluster I love. I’m looking at an xse or limited.
When she roll down the red rav 4 i saw jeff holding the camera
Great video!
Jeff, want to see you more in the videos.
There's nothing in the XLE premium that's worth $3000 to me. To each his own, though.
I'm taking whichever one that comes with you as part of the premium package 😁
The XLE Premium is my choice, love those 19 inch wheels and the power lift gate.
I got the 21 XLE Premium AWD. Very happy with the mileage as I have an 80 mile daily commute. The AWD performed really well in the recent snow storms. I got the cold weather package as well and only wish I had gotten the upgraded stereo technology package with the remote start. Actually if I had it to do over I'd probably go all out and get the Limited. But overall no regrets. It's going to be a great daily driver for me.

Looking to eventually upgrade to something bigger than my current ‘16 Camry, and since I am looking to stay with Toyota, I’ve got my heart pretty much set on a RAV4. Since I have most of the niceties that I could get in my Camry aside from dynamic cruise control, emergency braking, and the JBL sound system, when the time does come, I’ll likely go with something like an XLE Premium or Limited. Definitely planning on scheduling a test drive of one of the dealers in my area, and I’ve been hearing lots of good things! No wonder you see a ton of these (and also older RAV4s) on the road!

I was deciding between a Rav4 or a Tacoma but I chose a Tacoma because I fell in love with it lol
$3000.00 difference and basically Wheel, sunroof and seat. Which one would you pick?
I would go with the xle with convenience package but 2022 now when they become available! Be waiting for a video just about the xle 2022. Thanks!
I like the video the moment I saw Toyota Jeff :D
Great video
Get cha roll on!
You can usually use the key fob to set the alarm so you have to use the fob to unlock the car. Nice car but the fuel economy would put me off. I'd go for the Hybrid and get around 50mpg. That's in the UK.
Perfect info
Thanks, for the video, I recently acquired the 2022 RAV4 XLE. I have a question, does the XLE comes with a pre-wired for the fog lights? I would like to add the after-market fog lights if possible, preferably dealer install. Thanks, from California.
Thank you 🙏

Premium with the weather & convenience packages
I love three of them
XLE Lunar Rock is my fave
Excellent video and review! You were on point! This vehicle caught my eye lately and wanted to check it out. Your presentation on it has prompted me to explore further. You are good!!
The base 5 spoke wheels are very easy to clean, the 19's take some tedious work. And the 17 inchers provide a very cushy ride, due to the fat, meaty tires.
Thank you is super nice car 👍👏
Love the premium ❤️❤️
Very useful.
I prefer the wheels on the XLE

This car sells for 54k usd here in Mauritius. Nearly the double
She can get it!
The XLE premium does not come with heated seat standard unless you get it as the package??
Very informative video, thank you! I didn't know that larger wheels also meant more ground clearance. I always thought that the larger wheels were offset by lower profile tires. Is there something in the way of specifications from Toyota that show this? I ask because I just messed up the front part of my car on a curb, and an looking for my next vehicle to have a higher ground clearance.

That is not totally true in this case. The outside tire diameter is larger on the premium. The base trims of the RAV4 have plenty of clearance to avoid scraping parking stops. The premium only has 0.2 inches more clearance. The base trims get better mpg and are quicker since there is less rotational mass.
What is the kind of floor mat thats in the trunk of the xle? It looks perfect for dogs like mine and I need it! Thank you
Bigger tires more ground clearance, but less comfortable ride.
I bought the premium, so you figure it out, as to which I liked better.
How do I get it to unlock my passenger side? Mine doesn’t do that. I have to hit the unlock button. It only works on the drivers side. Is it something in that settings?
I have a 2022 XLE Premium. All I want Toyota to answer is why the Premium doesn't have a small plaque below the XLE stating that it is a Premium model.
Great information, but the audio quality absolutely sucks. Buy a wind screen for your mikes.
I love Rav 4
Crazy how in 2024 the Xle starts at $30,185 and the Xle premium starts at $33,072. That’s about a 10% increase, inflation is crazy
Nice review but the audio suffers...Can I suggest a wireless mic!
I would take XLE premium.
You can also lock the car so you need the key fob to unlock it. So neither of these are hybrids ? They only come as hybrids in the UK. and a plug in hybrid.
Just got 2021 XLE Premium in Magnetic Gray.
