The actual fuel consumption of the Toyota RAV 4 is from 5 to 11.5 liters per 100 kilometers. The norm for the city is more, for the highway - less. In each subsequent generation, the manufacturer has promised to reduce gasoline consumption.
Consumption of Toyota RAV4 with 2.0 engine
Modification 2.0 is presented in all four generations of the "RAV 4". The engine with such volume was put on the cars of 1994.
It was paired with automatic transmission and manual transmission. Consumption rates in each generation remained virtually the same:
In 1995, the first version of the youth crossover "RAV 4" (SHA 10) came out. In 1997, it was restyled. Power of the engines was 135 and 178 horsepower. The engine was equipped with a manual or automatic. Front or all-wheel drive. Declared gasoline consumption Toyota RAW 4 is 7.5 (for the highway) and 12 (for the city). Car enthusiasts confirm these figures.
The second generation (CA20W, II XA20, CA20) appeared on the market in 2000. Restyled versions of the Toyota RAV 4 are 2003-2005. The power of the twin-turbo version on gasoline is 150 hp, on diesel - 116 hp. The upgraded motor already required less fuel per 100 km. Consumption of gasoline Toyota RAV4 is 11.5 liters (city) and 7 liters (highway). The figure increases in winter - up to 13 liters per 100 kilometers.
The two-liter engine in the third generation received two levels of injectors. In 2010, its capacity was 158 "horses". Paired with the power unit is a variator and a six-speed manual. In 2011, the capacity of the Toyota RAV 4 was reduced to 148 horsepower. The changes did not affect gasoline consumption. Average consumption was 9.6 l/100 km.
The fourth version of the "RAV 4" (IV CA40) received the power unit of the third generation. Sales started in 2013. The basic modification has a two-liter 150 horsepower motor with a six-speed manual transmission or variator. The manufacturer promised to reduce fuel consumption. But in fact the figures remained the same.
Fuel consumption in all editions of Toyota RAV4 is approximately the same. The owners noticed the increased figures during the break-in period, in winter and on bad roads.
2.0 AT - MT
In "RAV 4" cars with an automatic gearbox of the first and second generation noted increased fuel consumption (compared to the manual). The difference can make from 0.5 to 1.5 liters depending on the configuration. The average figure on an automatic Toyota RAV4 is about 10 liters, and about 9 liters on a manual.
With the advent of six-speed automatics and variators, the situation has changed. Their dynamics became better than in the first versions. The power of the engine has increased.
The third and subsequent generations of Toyota automatic transmissions require the same amount of fuel as cars with a manual. Gasoline consumption in cars with a variator may even be less.
Consumption also depends on how you drive. If the driver jumps from a place, uses sharp brakes, then more gasoline is spent. Such motorists are more profitable to drive a Toyota with a manual transmission.
Engine 2.2 MT+AT DIESEL
The 2.2 diesel engine pleases motorists with economy and power. This modification shows the lowest possible consumption (both on automatic and mechanics).
Modifications and characteristics of the Toyota RAV4 2.2d:
XA40 (2013-2015) - 150 hp, front-wheel drive, automatic transmission. Consumption in the urban cycle - 8.1 l/100 km; suburban - 5.9; mixed - 6.7.
4WD (2010) - 150 hp, permanent all-wheel drive. Fuel consumption with MT - 7,5 / 5,2 / 6,0 (city / highway / mixed). WITH AT - 8,8 / 6,2 / 7,2.
D 4WD (2010-2012) - 177 hp, permanent all-wheel drive, manual transmission. Diesel consumption is 5.9 / 7.9 / 6.7.
D-CAT 4WD (2009) - 177 hp, permanent all-wheel drive, MT. The car consumes 7.9 / 5.9 / 6.7 l/100 km.
Car owners note that the average consumption of diesel fuel in the RAV4 in the city is actually 8.5-9.7 liters / 100 km.
When driving on the highway, this figure is 6.5 l / 100 km.
Toyota Rav 4 2.4 AT
Engines with a capacity of 2.4 liters manufacturer puts on the car since 2001. At first, such a motor was paired with a 4-speed automatic. Power of the unit was 167 horsepower. The vehicle consumed 10% more than a car with a 2-liter engine and 150 hp.
Subsequent modifications of the Toyota RAV4 began to produce more horsepower for this volume. The drive is no longer a constant all-wheel drive.
Gasoline consumption of the Toyota RAV4 with automatic transmission release:
2003-2005 (161 hp, four-speed transmission) - 12.2 in the city, 8.0 out of town.
2005-2008 (166 hp, four-speed automatic transmission) - 12.6 in the city, 7.9 on the highway.
2010-2012 (170 hp, 4 automatic transmission) - 12.6 / 7.9 (in the city and suburban cycle, respectively.
In 2010-2012, the Toyota RAV 4 with a variator also rolled off the assembly line. The power of the petrol engine is 170 hp. Claimed consumption is 10% less than the car with an automatic transmission.
Real fuel consumption according to owners' reviews
According to reviews of owners real fuel consumption per 100 km in the "Toyota RAV4" coincides with the manufacturer's claims. Specific figures depend on the manner and conditions of driving. The average value is 10 l / 100 km.
At a speed of 85-90 km/h on a good road with quality surface the car takes 6.5-7.5 liters. At speeds above 95 km/h the consumption increases by a liter and a half. When driving in the urban area the car may consume 9-11 liters.
The actual consumption of gasoline in the crossover with AT and MT is almost the same.
The cars with four-speed automatics consume more fuel. The "RAV4" SUVs with a six-speed automatic transmission spend the same amount as cars with manual control.
The average values depending on the gearbox and motor volume look like this:
⦁ 2.0 with automatic transmission and manual transmission - 9.3 l per 100 km;
⦁ 2.2 on automatic - 8 l;
⦁ 2.4 with AT - 11 liters (with declared 9,6 liters).
Some owners note, that in winter time the crossover spends more. And some drivers say that there is almost no difference.
Toyota RAV4 shows an optimal ratio of performance, power and consumption. The increased consumption is noted by the drivers during the break-in period, on the roads with numerous potholes and potholes, in the wintertime with severe frosts (when the heater works nonstop).
