Is the 2024 Toyota RAV4 a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Toyota RAV4 earns a 4.8/5 user rating and a 7.0/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Form and function at 9/10.

Drivers consistently praise its comfort, large screen, and reliable engine, and they also value its practical, roomy nature. The main trade-offs are that it can feel overpriced versus similar models, and some interior details do not fully meet expectations.

That fits the RAV4’s role as a practical compact SUV for you if you want everyday usefulness, comfort, and a strong reputation for long-term ownership rather than excitement. Good and great deals account for 35.4% of listings, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Toyota RAV4 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The user feedback points to a reliable, dependable engine and a vehicle that owners feel good about keeping for the long term. The expert assessment also highlights the engine’s reputation for bulletproof dependability.

Toyota’s complimentary connected-service trials add some ownership value, and the broader package is built around durability and peace of mind. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that the vehicle is starting to show its age, so condition and maintenance history matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Toyota RAV4?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The cabin gets nicer as you move up the range, with more upscale interior choices on select trims and extra visual touches on upper versions. Base trims are more utility-focused, so you should check whether the features you want are included before you buy.
• Powertrain: You get a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with 203 horsepower, an eight-speed automatic, and standard AWD. The engine needs to be revved hard for maximum power, and it can sound loud and unrefined.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 is standard, along with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. The system includes adaptive cruise control and lane-centring assist, but the lane-centring can be a bit lazy and the braking can be overly cautious.
• Infotainment: The Toyota Audio Multimedia system includes an 8-inch touchscreen, with a 10.5-inch screen available. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, along with SiriusXM satellite radio and connected services.
• Fuel efficiency: The gas model is rated at 8.5 L/100 km combined, while the LE is slightly lower at 7.9 L/100 km. The test vehicle averaged 10.6 L/100 km on the evaluation route.

Which 2024 Toyota RAV4 trim should I buy?

The 2024 Toyota RAV4 is offered in 4 trim levels: LE, Trail, Limited, and TRD Off-Road.

Here's the short version:

• LE: This is the value-focused choice if you want the lowest entry price and the core RAV4 formula. It gives you the essentials, but the cabin is the most basic, so it suits you best if you care more about practicality than polish.
• Trail: This is the best-value pick if you want the closest thing to an off-road-oriented gas RAV4 in Canada. It adds the more rugged character mentioned in the review and is the trim to consider if you want a tougher-looking, more utility-minded version.
• Limited: This is the upscale choice, with the nicest cabin treatment in the gas lineup and the available digital rear-view mirror. It suits you if you want the most refined RAV4 experience without moving into hybrid territory.
• TRD Off-Road: This trim is referenced as the test vehicle in the review, but it was discontinued in Canada at the end of the 2022 model year.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.5, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert are standard, so you do not need to move up the trim ladder for the core safety package.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Toyota RAV4?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some confidence if you are patient.

• Deal availability: 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,016 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.54% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $36,183 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Toyota RAV4's resale value?

The current average of $37,073 CAD sits slightly below last year's $37,652 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you as a buyer today but may temper resale gains if you sell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, the RAV4’s broad appeal should still support demand later. Its reputation for reliability and practicality helps it remain attractive to future shoppers.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Toyota RAV4 safe?

The 2024 RAV4 does not qualify for the latest Top Safety Pick award from IIHS, and it has a Marginal rating in the latest small overlap frontal-impact crash test and an Acceptable rating in the latest side-impact test.

It earns a 5/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 is standard, and it includes adaptive cruise control and lane-centring assist. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are also standard in Canada. The main caveat is that the system can be a bit intrusive or cautious in real-world use, and the IIHS results show the design is ageing.

Should I buy a 2024 Toyota RAV4 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.54% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It remains a dependable, roomy, practical compact SUV with strong long-term appeal.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $34,508 CAD, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $37,073 CAD average.
• It keeps the well-reviewed styling while updating the infotainment system.

The bottom line: If you want the current-year market and a broad selection, the 2024 is the safer all-around pick. If your priority is saving money, the 2023 is the better value path, especially if you are comfortable giving up some of the current-year pricing context.
