A used Toyota RAV4: Save on America’s most popular SUV

The Toyota RAV4 is the best-selling SUV in the country and continues to lead the charge for SUVs everywhere. This is the sport utility vehicle that started the crossover craze decades ago. When you get a recent model Toyota RAV4 at Blackstone Toyota in Fresno CA, you’re getting a family-friendly SUV that’s spacious, loaded with cargo room and easy to drive. It will also give you the kind of fuel economy you need in today’s high-priced times.

Performance in a used Toyota RAV4

Recent RAV4 models came with a standard 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine that’s good for 203 horsepower, and you might find one with either front- or all-wheel drive. Look for an Adventure model equipped with advanced all-wheel drive and it will disconnect the rear axle in a way that enhances fuel economy. Zero-to-60 for most RAV4 models will be in the neighborhood of 8.0 seconds. A RAV4 hybrid can do an even faster time of about 7.4 seconds.

Fuel economy in a used Toyota RAV4

One of the reasons the Toyota RAV4 is so loved by families is the way it stretches a gallon of gas. With front-wheel drive you should get about 26 MPG in the city and a remarkable 35 MPG when you’re out on highways around Clovis and Madera, CA. If you prefer the extra traction of all-wheel drive, you can still do very well with 25 MPG on city streets and an excellent 33 MPG on the highway. It’s a great way to see less of gas stations.

The interior of a used Toyota RAV4

Any recent model Toyota RAV4 will take good care of five passengers across two rows. As you’ll see when you shop for a used RAV4, Toyota pays a great deal of constructive attention to ergonomics. There’s a practical shelf that runs across the dashboard and supplements the storage space of the big center console. When you reach the XLE trim or higher, you’ll find a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a stitched and padded dashboard.

Infotainment in a used Toyota RAV4

The base infotainment screen is 7 inches but you might find a used RAV4 with an 8-inch display. Apple CarPlay® comes standard and so does a 6-speaker audio system. Available upgrades include a moonroof or a panoramic glass roof and wireless device charging. You can also add satellite radio, four extra USB ports and push button start. For the best entertainment experience, get the optional 11-speaker JBL stereo system.

Safety technology in a used Toyota RAV4

The standard safety features in a used Toyota RAV4 will include the convenience and security of a rear-view camera to help you back up more safely. A lane departure warning system also comes standard and the system can diplomatically guide you back on course if you drift out of your lane. Adaptive cruise control measures the distance between you and the car ahead and helps drivers in Selma and Lemoore, CA maintain a safe following distance.
