car_truck'I traded in my 2024 RAV4 Hybrid XLE only because our family suddenly needed three rows,' says the previous owner. 'Otherwise, I’d still be enjoying the quiet pull away from stoplights, the winter confidence of AWD, and fuel receipts that read like typos.' That candid sentiment sets the tone for this Midnight Black Metallic SUV—an efficient, confident hybrid that feels composed in daily traffic and unflustered when the weather turns.
This pre-owned example shows 36,242 kilometres on the odometer, an ideal sweet spot where the powertrain is nicely settled and ready for many more years of effortless commuting. Toyota’s 2.5L Dynamic Force I-4 teams with electric assistance and an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission to deliver smooth thrust without drama. All-wheel drive is on duty full-time, seamlessly shifting torque for assured traction on wet city streets or snow-dusted highways.
Its frugal character is evident at the pump, returning an estimated 5.8 L/100 km in the city and 6.3 L/100 km on the highway.
The exterior carries a purposeful stance: crisp LED lighting, black cladding that frames the body, and 17-inch alloy wheels that fill the arches without compromising ride quality. Subtle details—like a neat rear lip spoiler and roof rails—add utility without shouting for attention. It’s a look that wears the Midnight Black finish particularly well, reflecting light with a deep gloss.
Inside, thoughtful touches elevate everyday driving. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel take the edge off cold mornings, while dual-zone automatic climate control keeps the cabin balanced. The 8-inch touchscreen is quick to learn and quicker to use, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mirroring that keeps maps, calls, and playlists close at hand.
Five USB ports mean everyone stays powered, and a power liftgate, adjustable cargo floor, and 60/40 split back seats make quick work of weekend projects or a grocery run. A sliding glass sunroof opens the cabin to sky and breeze when the weather cooperates.
Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+ forms a vigilant co-pilot, pairing Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with Lane Tracing Assist to ease highway mileage. A Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection adds peace of mind around town, while Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert help with lane changes and reversing in busy lots. The hybrid’s regenerative braking blends naturally with the four-wheel disc setup for confident stops.
In short, this RAV4 Hybrid XLE marries practical size with hybrid efficiency and year-round AWD assurance.
It’s tuned for life as you actually live it—economical on the commute, relaxed on the highway, and versatile enough to handle a spontaneous detour down a gravel road or a last-minute cargo haul.
