The 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is an almighty trendsetter. Back in 2019, mainstream hybrid SUVs were an unknown quantity in Australia, but then the low-emissions mid-sizer launched to unprecedented demand, which still hasn't eased some 4.5 years later.

That high level of interest in the RAV4 Hybrid has been for good reason, though, as it's one thoroughly impressive vehicle, managing to offer relatively low pricing, a long list of standard equipment, surprisingly good driving dynamics and, of course, high real-world efficiency.

In this expert review, CarsGuide Contributing Journalist Marcus Craft spends a week living with the RAV4 Hybrid's high-spec Cruiser 2WD variant to find out if it's still a strong performer in a sea of newer low-emissions mainstream family SUVs, including the Honda CR-V e:HEV and Nissan X-Trail ePower.
