Read moreWhy is the Toyota RAV4 a great choice on the pre-owned market?
The pre-owned market offers a wide range of interesting models. In the compact SUV segment alone, you'll find many quality players. So how do you determine which one is the best buy when it's been on the road for a few years?
With a new model, you think that everything is guaranteed, but with a used product, you have to think longer term. That brings us to the Toyota RAV4. If you want to know why it's an excellent choice in the pre-owned market, consider these three arguments.
Reliability
We were just talking about warranties. Once the grace period offered by a manufacturer is over, it's important to rely on a model that isn't going to break down on a regular basis. With a Toyota RAV4, this is the first certainty you have. It's one of the most reliable vehicles to come out in the last 20 years, so you don't have to worry about a 3, 5, 7 or 10 year old model.
Versions by the ton
Over the years, the RAV4 lineup has become much more refined. So much so that you can't just find an SUV that offers comfort and space, but also a more competent model off the beaten path (Trail version), for example. Some variants, like the Limited, play the luxury card. Then there's the hybrid model, which offers a fuel economy rating of about 6 L/100 km in combined driving. And it's this diversity that makes the model an excellent choice; you'll find something to suit your needs.
Resale value
Vehicles are expensive these days, admittedly. The pandemic will have turned market practices and rules upside down. However, there's one thing you can always count on: the resale value of a Toyota model. And with the RAV4, you get the ultimate in this regard. No matter what the asking price is for a model, its value will remain high, so when you trade it in for another one, you'll also get back more than you did before. In the end, you're going to come out ahead once again, simply because it's a RAV4. Look at the value of some of the competing models after a few years and you'll see why the RAV4 is the right choice.
